Part 1: Do You Want A Wake Up Call?
It’s Party Time
Date: 20 February 2022
Speaker: Duane Lowe
Often, more times than not, we’re being cultivated by people we haven’t met formally yet. Social Media, Politics, Sport Figures, Hollywood personalities, Drivers you encounter on the road etc…
- We choose how it will emotionally affect us positively or negatively.
- Jesus has set it up so that we would need His empowerment to make the correct choice.
Can We Have a Party When Trouble is on Every Side?
As He’s cultivating us through others, He’s also using us to cultivate others through us.
Paul addresses the believers in Philippi who were enduring horrific circumstances; History reveals Nero’s frustration as he looked at the faces of those he tortured, fed to lions and killed. They were smiling and seemed overflowing with joy:
(TPT) Philippians 4:4-9
Fix Your Thoughts On The:
-
- Authentic and Real
- Honorable and Admirable
- Beautiful and Respectful
- Pure and Holy
- Merciful and Kind
- Every glorious work of God
- Praising Him always (Actions and Attitudes are key regardless of the trouble)
When I’m thankful regardless of the surrounding circumstance, Jesus is revealed, instead of putting expectation on others to live up to what I expect them to be.
(TPT) James 1:23-25
We must not require others “to be” but focus on ourselves “being”
This alone will hinder our participation in the Kingdom Party!
Two steps to take as you participate in the Kingdom Party:
- Agree with Jesus as He reveals your identity.
- Let Jesus cultivate you through others as He wills
