The Fulfilled Life
Jesus himself says that he came and did what he did to give us an abundance of Life
That means a lot of life.
A Rich Life.
A life lacking nothing.
A fulfilled life.
How many are living that all the time?
How many wake up every day and experience the fulfilled life?
If you weren’t able to raise your hand, I think I know why.
And if you were able to raise your hand, I can tell you how to make it even better.
The Way It Was!
Genesis 3:8-
Adam and Eve had full communication with God.
Every day he would walk with them through the garden that he had made for them
Every day they spoke as friends, as I am speaking to you right now
They had conversation
They had communion
They had relationship
They understood as God did
They only thought good things
They only did good things
They were totally innocent
Until - Temptation - Rebellion and Sin
And that brought death
Mooth, Mooth - Spiritual death and finally physical death
No more walks with God - in fact, they are thrown out of the garden
No more relationship with God - they are spirit dead
That part of them that conversed and understood as him is now dead in them.
And that has followed down the line through every human being born into their lineage - We are born in sin, we are born spiritually dead.
But what If I were to tell you this morning that there is away for your spirit to be more alive than ever?
I’m not just talking about salvation.
(yes that is a big part of it) but I’m speaking of something that Jesus will do in you that will not only bring your spirit to life, but bring your spirit back to where it should be.
Like Adam and Eve first had
Would you want that?
What If I could show you today a way in which you can walk with God all day long.
That you can talk with him and understand him and have communion with him.
EVERY DAY!
How many would want that?
Raise your hands.
Great.
Exodus 31:
God gave Moses the directions and blue prints for his tent of meeting.
The tabernacle.
The place where God would reside to be in the center of his peoples lives and with (among) them wherever they went.
Remember, Israel was to be a theocracy - A God ruled people.
And I’m sure that as Moses gets these directions, there is some feeling of being overwhelmed.
If you read these directions, God is very particular.
Measurements have to be exact, things have to look a certain way, and up until this time, these people were in Egypt and all that they knew were masonry and shepherding.
They made bricks and built things for Pharoah while maintaining their livestock while they were at home
And God is talking about material and sewing and hammered out gold work.
Bronze work, gem work, clothing for the priests.
And then God says don’t worry Moses.
I’ve place my Holy Spirit in certain men so that they can do the task.
In other words, the Holy Spirit came upon them so that they could get the job done.
What if God could do that today?
What if I told you that you can become better, even good at those things that you are failing at today?
What if I could show you a way that you could learn things quicker and better and that you could apply those things to your life?
Is there any body would would want that today?
Great.
We are getting there.
I’d run out of time if I showed all of these today.
But let’s look at
Numbers 24:1
Balak is the king of Moab.
The Moabites are scared to death of the people of Israel because of the way that the Lord had allowed them to overcome the Amorites and they know that they are next
So Balak commissions a prophet Balaam to curse Israel.
Balaam knows better, but on his way he has some weird stuff happen
Donkey story
And then we come to this.
His third of four blessings that God gives him to pronounce over his people at the cost of a very angry King Balak.
Look at verse 2 - and the spirit of the Lord came upon him
That’s the Holy spirit
and what does he do, He knows the right things to say over God’s people.
He blesses them and speaks Gods own words over them.
What if that could happen in your life today?
What if in work or at home when there is a situation that is so far beyond you and yet you could have a word or a suggestion that would solve it.
I mean all the time.
Would you want that today?
What if you had the ability to walk up to someone, anyone, whom you know or don’t and prophesy over them.
Or give them the Word that God wants them to know at that moment in their situation.
Would you want that today?
Wouldn’t that make life better
What if you could hear from God all the time, his word for you, or for your loved ones or your co-workers?
Who would want that today?
Raise your hand - great.
we are getting there.
Can you give me a little bit of time for just one more today?
I promise it will be worth your while.
1 Samuel 16:10-
God sends Samuel to anoint a new King.
Saul has blown it and God is removing him.
God wants a King that will honor him before the people and lead the people into his presence.
That king will be David.
Jesse has all 7 of his sons go before Samuel, but none of them are it
And then he asks, do you have another?
David is brought in from the field and anointed and look at verse 13
And the spirit of the Lord came upon David from that day forward
But what happened to the other King almost simultaneously?
The spirit of the Lord departed from Saul
It would seem like the Holy Spirit has a special anointing for people in leadership doesn’t it?
