Believe to Trust to Faith

Notes
Transcript

Supernatural Witness

Teaching, however I believe God is going to release some of you today from this burden to heal and save people and to truly just love people. This teaching is about breaking off the religious spirit we have been taught.
Take that phrase “Supernatural Witness” and through it away.
Having gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, let us use them: if prophecy, in proportion to our faith; Romans 12:6
What I am going to teach on today is so basic to being a “Christian” that some of the great evangelist of our time have missed it and are just now realizing it or still trying too.
-“I’m glad for what I learned about prosperity, but it got out of balance,” the well-known Christian author and speaker said. “I’m glad for what I’ve learned about faith, but it got out of balance.” ~ Joyce Meyer
“Every time somebody had a problem in their life, [I thought] it’s because they didn’t have enough faith. If you got sick it’s because you don’t have enough faith. If your child died, it’s because you don’t have enough faith,” Meyer said.
Benny Hinn - renounces prosperity Gospel. Hinn rejected the prosperity gospel for the first time in the late 1980s and again in the early ’90s, and there were reports at the time that he had really changed. He went on to preach prosperity again.
This false prosperity Gospel that centers around if I just had enough faith drives a if I squent harder and really really really think something is true it will eventually happen. God is saying no.
I am going to show how to break this train of thinking to free you up to truly be a Christian/evangelist. Convert others to the Christian Faith. The great commission, right.
Us here believe we will see signs right because well that is what Jesus did and promises.
God revealed to me through understanding that it is not us who saves or heals, through some teaching and the Holy Spirit
What does it mean to be a Christian? Believe Jesus Christ is who He says He is and the Word of God is God breathed.
I have a heart of an Evangelist that was birthed out of crying out for God to show me His love for the lost. He did and it wrecked my world. He spoke to me and He challenged me. But I have always struggled to see God really move.

Believe to Trust to Action to Faith

Faith
Hebrews 11:6 ESV
And without faith it is impossible to please him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him.
Hebrew 11:6
To be an Evangelist that moves in the Spirit, we must understand what I am about to share. Without knowledge my people parish. and
We want to jump to the end product which is Faith but there is a process to get to Faith.
I think James summarized very well. Faith without actions(work) is dead! ;18
So we see Action comes before Faith. Faith is a product of moving out on something you know. Faith is for something in the future that you already know to be true.
First is Faith but before Faith is Actions/Works. So faith is a product of some action.
Action
What are actions based on? Why do we do something.
Example if I ask my wife to watch the kids because I need to go to the store and she says yes. I take the action and go to the store right. Well why was I able to take the action that produced faith in my wife that she would watch the children?
I trust her.
“Therefore, preparing your minds for action, and being sober-minded, set your hope fully on the grace that will be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ.” 1 Peter 1:13
Trust proceeds Action and Action before Faith.
Definition of Faith is
He shall seduce with flattery those who violate the covenant, but the people who know their God shall stand firm and take action.
Trust
What is my trust based on? How can I trust my wife?
Example: Me and my wife have spend a lot of time togather and I know she wouldn’t hurt a soul. I can not even get here to go hunting with me :(. WE have also talked about the handoff of children making sure we hear each other. So we know if we get a response that yes I hear you or a nod that we can trust they will watch the children.
We know their intentions. We have knowledge about that person so we have something to Believe in that allows us to Trust them.
So here is the full picture: Believe to Trust to Action to Faith
I want to focus on Believing in God so that we may be the Christian/Evangelist we were created to be.
BELIEVE
my wife says she is going to watch the kids I will take the action to go do
So you can’t just say if I had more faith and say in your spirit I really really really have faith this will happen. Even squint harder.
Daniel 11
Daniel 11:32 ESV
He shall seduce with flattery those who violate the covenant, but the people who know their God shall stand firm and take action.
And Jesus said to him, “‘If you can’! All things are possible for one who believes.”

3 For what does the Scripture say? “Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him as righteousness.”

2 things to believe
Evangelist defined
What better thing to look at then what Jesus called Him self. Lets look at
Luke 4:18–19 ESV
“The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.”
Luke 4:18-19
An Evangelist calls them to repent and believe in Christ. And like Jesus we have all the tools of heaven available to us.
All of us here are here because we want to bring people into the kingdom and see God move!
Questions:
Will it work? When I go up to them will they think I am foolish? What will I say? Will they accept me? Will God heal them? Will___ (you fill in the blank for your self).
Lets all take a minute and write down a few major questions we have that pop in our minds when we think about approaching someone?
These questions come from two basic questions
A lot of us struggle to move out and witness because of these questions. Also, we do not see people the way Jesus sees them.
Tonight I want to address the first questions. It comes down to one thing that is the catalyst for everything else that is so basic but so easy to over look. We all have had to do it once on a large scale. But now as we move into the prophetic God is asking us to take it to a deeper level, more specific level.
When I tell people to go witness that are struggling. I say things like:
4) Have Faith
3) Step Out
2) Trust God, do you
1) Believe - what do you believe about God
Identity
4) This is so important to understand too! Rules, legalism, control, measuring up. There is nothing we can do. So “just have faith” is cutting out the things that make faith possible and actually if we focus on the faith we try to muster up enough faith on our own and then when they don’t get healed we want to blame our selves or them. Say things I must just not had enough faith or they didn’t.
3)
Best example of believe to trust to action to faith
Starting Point:
BELIEVE
You must believe first that God wants to heal, He wants to speak to people, He wants to bless people and He wants to use YOU. He always shows up.
Scripture:
13 For “everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” 14 How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without someone preaching? … 17 So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ.
13 For “everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”
17 So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ.
14 How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without someone preaching?
The Holy Bible: English Standard Version. (2016). (). Wheaton, IL: Crossway Bibles.They do not believe because they have not heard
You don’t have faith until you take action. Then the action solidifies the Faith.

If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. ~ ! Cor 13:2
Love comes from Time
