DESTINY GOES THROUGH MIDIAN

DESTINY GOES THROUGH MIDIAN

TEXT:

EXODUS 2:21-22 21 Then Moses was content to live with the man, and he gave Zipporah his daughter to Moses. 22 And she bore him a son. He called his name Gershom, for he said, “I have been a stranger in a foreign land.”

OPEN:

I FELT THE DESTINY OF GOD BEFORE I KNEW THE GOD OF DESTINY

HEBREWS 11:24-26 24 By faith Moses, when he became of age, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter, 25 choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God than to enjoy the passing pleasures of sin, 26 esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt; for he looked to the reward.

YOUR SPIRIT WILL NOT ACCOMMODATE COMFORT AS A REPLACEMENT FOR DESTINY

THE COST IS EVERYTHING

YOUR SPIRIT DOESN’T CARE WHAT YOUR SOUL WANTS

THERE IS NO CERTAINTY - NO BARGAINING WITH GOD

FAITH IS THE PROCESS - TO RESIST THE PROCESS IS SINFUL

WHERE IN YOUR LIFE ARE YOU COMPROMISING DESTINY?

HOW TO IDENTIFY?

1. FRUSTRATION

2. REBELLION BY DELUSION SELF DECEPTION

3. CYNICISM - NIHILISM *BITTER

4. RESENTFUL

YOUR DESTINY GOES THROUGH MIDIAN

EXODUS 3:1 Now Moses was tending the flock of Jethro his father-in-law, the priest of Midian. And he led the flock to the back of the desert, and came to Horeb, the mountain of God.

SEPARATION FROM SECURITY IS WHAT LEADS TO DESTINY

TESTIMONY

WHAT BRINGS YOU SECURITY

WHERE IN YOUR SPIRITUAL LIFE ARE YOU HIJACKING CORPORATE ANOINTING FOR PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP?

LEARN THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN INTIMATE VS PUNISHMENT

THE GIFT OF GERSHOM

EXODUS 2:22 22 And she bore him a son. He called his name Gershom, for he said, “I have been a stranger in a foreign land.” GERSHOM IS THE EVIDENCE OF GODS LOVE IN YOUR LONELY PLACE

MY EXILE IS NOT FUTILE!

THE WILDERNESS IS TIME ALONE WITH GOD

LOOK WHAT I BROUGHT BACK FROM MY WILDERNESS!

GOD MAKES ME FRUITFUL IN MIDIAN!
