Expansion

Matthew 9:14–17 NIV

14 Then John’s disciples came and asked him, “How is it that we and the Pharisees fast often, but your disciples do not fast?” 15 Jesus answered, “How can the guests of the bridegroom mourn while he is with them? The time will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them; then they will fast. 16 “No one sews a patch of unshrunk cloth on an old garment, for the patch will pull away from the garment, making the tear worse. 17 Neither do people pour new wine into old wineskins. If they do, the skins will burst; the wine will run out and the wineskins will be ruined. No, they pour new wine into new wineskins, and both are preserved.”

Matt 9:14-17

1. Success in the new year requires a new attitude

Can’t look at your future with the past on your mind

Can’t move forward while looking backwards

Time to change the stinking thinking

Time to dream big dreams

Time to wake up and pursue those dreams

Expansion requires new focus

2. Time to clear the FOG

Fear keeps you from believing in a Big God

Do not oppose what God is showing you

Do not hold a Grudge against your past

3. You can’t change the past

Stop living in yesterday

The heartaches of yesterday are done

You are here because you survived your worst days

So far, you have survived your worst days

4. We need to be new wineskins for Expansion

The old can’t hold the new

There is a new way to triumph over fear

There is a new way to triumph over trouble

Expansion is coming to the new vessels

There is a new way to triumph

5. Faith in Jesus is our new way to Expansion

We need to be in the flow of His Spirit

He is pouring fresh wine

He is giving fresh revelation

You’ve been praying for it, now it’s time to receive it

Enlarge my territory

Focus on the Mission

Pray for our vision
