Destinations Wk. 4

The very reason sections of scripture like this are included in the narrative are simply to demonstrate that the greatness of the Kingdom of God comes through the hands of people who are willing to serve. It is vitally necessary to listen, hear, and respond to the call of God on my life. Regardless of my age, my ability or my knowledge. Passion and willingness is enough. Your life is fundamentally void of the goodness of God if you are not involved and invested into his mission on earth If you are still breathing air, you still have power and ability to serve the Lord and allow him to use you for his purpose and greatness. More than 85% of the NT would not exist if Jesus never included other people in the mission. Sequentially, 85% of the NT would not exist if those who heard the call never answered. The work and movement of the church today directly hinges on the people of God recognizing the call and surrendering their willingness to be involved. There comes a moment in life when you must say no to something so you can say yes to the Lord.

ME/WE: 1) Up to speed in the story:// 2) HEROES.MT1:21- bear a son, call him Jesus FOR HE’LL SAVE PPL

The most capable person in the room- We’d all segway to Jesus, but he’d hand it right back to us.

Hot Potato Ministry - SINGLE MOST IMPORTANT THING WE DO IN LIFE IS CREATE HEROES OUT OF THE PPL

PPL WANT TO BE OWNERS. MT28:18-19- All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Go therefore and make disciples of all nations…”

What have you accomplished that is going to leave a lasting legacy?

Renovating our house. - Grayson on the nailgun / We underestimate the beauty of being involved.-

We underestimate the fulfillment of being able to give some away.

CONTEXT- MK3:1-6- “AGAIN” WHAT’S JESUS GOING TO DO NEXT?! - THEY ARE LEARNING JESUS ACTIVITY

MK3- Here is Jesus, introducing disciples, giving ministry away. THE IMPORTANCE OF A PERSON'S NAME

“You’ve seen what I did, how i did it, what I interacted with and what I avoided, NOW IT’S YOUR TURN”

excitement and apprehension - BRING ON THE EXCUSES!

We’ve come so far that rather than being free to follow Jesus' movement and embrace opportunity, we want to schedule our Spiritual activity. We want to compartmentalize what Jesus can do through us, if we have extra time.

Jesus came to seek and save that which was lost and were over here like, YO JC, I owe you one! Hey, have a safe trip back to Heaven, we’ll pray for you, for traveling mercies and stuff.

Out of fear of the unknown, we avoid the very thing that God instilled in our heart to do

John 14:12-14- WHAT ARE YOU ASKING!!!???

Fear prevents us from attempting for God something that we KNOW we could not handle ourselves.

Dependence on the Father is much better than knowledge and certainty about what needs to happen next.

<<KEYS BEGINNING, BAND PREPPING>>Missions Experience - We’re going to experience the Lord in the way he wants. Not what we planned.

Too much of your lives today is developed about the predictable, the certainty and the prescribed outcomes.

Safe decisions. - We’ve reduced ourselves to only making decisions that make sense. We’ve pulled all the trust in the Lord out of the equations.

God I’m going to trust you. The future of your church, the future of my family, the future of my career.

For just 1 day, what if you woke up EAGER to get up / encounter the Lord in what he has for you today?

Understand this, Jesus is still new to them. This isn’t 3 years follow Jesus and now you feel like you’ve seen it all, you’ve experienced it all. No you’ve had a crash course in demon delivery and now your the person who headed out, armed with and understanding of the greatness of the power of God, and life change is going to happen because of WHO YOU KNOW, not WHAT YOU KNOW!

EPHESIANS 4:7, But grace was given to each one of us according to the measure of Christ's gift.

YOU HAVE A GIFT! POINTLESS GIFTS STAY IN THE BOX. EPHESIANS 4:11-16, The Lord is less concerned about the outcome as he is with your involvement and your willingness to let him use you.

My Circle - We’re praying dangerous prayers.

The gospel you know is the one you need to be able to produce every element of life change the Lord wants to produce through you.
