Risky for Jesus! I love adventure. I love the idea of living life on the edge. Some things that turned me away from Christianity some years ago is having this image that the Christian life is boring. That the only way I could enjoy myself is running with worldly fun. Enjoy God sunday mornings and the rest of the week have "fun". That "fun" is so unfulfilling and you know it! Doing the same thing ever night. boring. It's momentary joy and it's gone. Life with Jesus is the most adventurous, exciting, joy filled life you could ever have.
Who doesn't want this kind of life? Full with not only excitement but purpose. Listening to the voice of God and being obedient. Dan was saying that a lot of the time when God speaks to us were to scared to step out thinking "maybe I didn't hear God right" or " I want more confirmation than that..." Dan bowman spoke the other night. Totally changed my outlook on listening to the voice of God ( even if it's a small quiet voice) and walking out in it.His life is lived day by day with Jesus and just his stories of Gods provision over his life is crazzyyy. God is real, let's just say that.
3 key areas of risk.
1.) the safest place is right where God wants you!
- in the garden of Eden God told Adam and eve " you may eat the fruit of every tree in the garden except the tree of the knowledge of good and evil"
Put in today's perspective, we can do anything in this world that you want ( he created the material world. He loves the material world) but don't let the material world become your reality. Don't let the knowledge on this world consume your mind. I created your mind to be consumed with me(God). What if we stopped letting the "knowledge" of this world say this is to dangerous and don't go there or dont do this and let the knowledge of God determine that!
2.) the reality of losing control.
He glorifies in our weakness! Losing control of something gives God the opportunity to step in and show his greatness. His love for you.
3.) reputation
Have a simple pure heart. Things will come against that. The driving force is that I'm a son of the living God. I just want to enjoy Jesus. Dan was saying a good indication of your rep creeping in is in your heart your more excited about doing things for God than just enjoying God. Boom! Love y'all. thanks to all my supporters and everyone reading. I'm so blessed that y'all believe and invested in my life.
