Our number one calling is to ABIDE. Doing for Jesus flowing out of being with Jesus. God invites us to be consciously aware of him. To live with easy familiarity with God’s presence.
What if we experienced such a wave of God’s unconditional love that we had nothing left to hide? Living Seen. Living RELAXED and at HOME. With God - Ourself - Others
The Western idea of following Jesus is that he makes my INDIVIDUAL life better or more enjoyable. Like social media celebrity Christianity/church - Do a great work for God - Be Popular. Be Great. Be Successful. Jesus SHOCKS his disciples when halfway through his ministry he clearly/PLAINLY explains where all this is heading - the cross
The goal is intimacy with God- a deep connection with Him so that we would know God’s heart but also the plan that he has prepared for us
Whilst NOT the source of grief and pain God wants to ENLARGE us and TRANSFORM us through them. Contained in the moment is a an invitation to encounter God and His goodness.
Living in the grace of God was foundational to the Christian Life in the teaching of the Apostle. What is Grace and how do we live in it?
Walking in a full expression of our FREEDOM requires understanding the families we grew up in. The way we DID things/what we LEARNED/SAW/experienced become like unspoken RULE, VALUES, and WAYS of doing LIFE
Find Freedom Try StepsWhat do we do with our pain? Where do we turn when we experience pain/disappointment/stress? Where do we flee? What gives us temporary relief/numbing and distraction? At the root of a destructive thought pattern/behaviour is PAIN. THINGS/ THOUGHTS to distract/numb/comfort some pain or relieve the pressure we are experiencing.
God is hope - the source of ALL HOPE How do we receive abounding Hope? How can be filled with ALL Joy and Peace?
Jesus has made you his own - and nothing you can do is going to change his mind. His mind is settled and irreversible.
Jesus is a tender friend - It’s a two-way relationship: companionship, communion, mutual respect, joy, sharing lives and dreams like an actual real friend

It is impossible for the affectionate heart of christ to be exaggerated or over celebrated.
There’s only ONE place in the four gospels where Jesus tells us about his own heart. Where he pulls back the veil and lets us see into the core of who he is.
Clarity on where to serve often starts with answering the question what needs do I see and how can I meet them?
Through Christ we are totally different people. The Old has Gone, we are now living a new life. We have been raised with him, we are now brand new people. We are glorious and our brand new nature needs to be in the driving seat.
There isn’t a place where Jesus isn’t authorised/allowed to act and rule. No limitation, no restriction. The courage and confidence is the rock solid foundation of the words ALL authority.
Legalism is the attempt to earn acceptance or strengthen God’s love via obedience. Legalism looks wise desirable and attractive, but unlike the freedom found in Jesus, legalism creates harsh self reliance, an undesirable life, a tight unattractive restrictive life.
COLOSSIANS 2:6-15- The full deity of Christ, and His sufficiency in salvation by faith. For us: do we believe in Christ for our fulness? What other “false gods” are we tempted to add on? What other “gods” are we using as substitute saviours?
The suffering of Paul but the mystery of CHRIST:” in YOU the hope of Glory” as an encouragement. For us: How does believing in “Christ in us the hope of Glory” impact our daily lives? COLOSSIANS 1:24-2:5
Colossians 1:15-23 is about taking a step back and seeing the bigger picture of who Jesus is and what He has achieved.
Identity is who we believe we are - Identity shapes our behaviour - the way we live. Not modify your behaviour - but know who you actually are. What Jesus has done - who we now are - This is how to live as a community shaped by Jesus.
The only way we will be able to celebrate our diversity and at the same time pursue absolute unity is though alignment with the culture of heaven.
Our life and our story is our gift to the world. Jamie tells 11 stories about his experience of the person of Holy Spirit.
Philippians 4:10-23 is a remarkable passage! Paul could have just written a simple “thank you!”, but instead it turned out to be a great insight into what generosity is about and reveals a lot about Paul’s attitude to money and how to find the secret to contentment in life in poverty or abundance.
This is the great reversal. This is normal Christianity. This is the treasure in the field. Becoming a Christian means discovering that Christ is a Treasure Chest of joy, pleasure and satisfaction.
Surrendering to God’s willing and doing is a choice, not God doing magic but our conscious mental decision. When we decide to live a certain way and make it an act of our will to follow His will, we discover that the power behind that decision is Holy Spirit. WE are NOT alone.
Philippians 2:1-11. Unity with one another is made possible through humility. Having the same mindset as Christ is how the Kingdom is extended and gospel is advanced.

HANNAH: Prayer answered- Promises fulfilled. How often God’s promises come to fruition through impossible circumstances!
This is a striking/confusing story. Jesus loves Lazarus, yet oddly when he hear’s that he is sick He chose not to rush but instead He waits. Jesus knew what this delay would mean. He loved this family therefore He delayed. We are invited to see that this is LOVE.

Miracle of John # 2. (John 4:46-54) In this miracle we discover the power of coming to end of our own resources and solutions, and the importance of the decision to take Jesus at His word alone and believe before we see.
Miracles of John 1#. This first miracle reveal Jesus’ nature and glory to His disciples - so that they would believe! The kingdom is a kingdom of abundance. With a King who knows how to love people well…

This isn’t a Fairness/feminist agenda but a Holy Spirit one. This is about a culture/environment where Holy Spirit is free to give gifts to both men and women. Both men and women equally released on the basis of Gifting, Calling. Character. Competency.
Question One: Doesn’t 1 Tim 2:12 say that women can’t teach or have authority over a man ? Isn’t it BECAUSE ADAM WAS CREATED FIRST?

Elijah is still in a place of brokenness and disappointment. God doesn’t turn up in the same way that He has in the past, but in a whisper, in the sound of shear silence and in the silence he receives spiritual resources.
God loves process, because He loves relationship. Process is where we get to know God and trust Him personally. God is not the architect, author or source of pain. But God redeems pain and through it we learn trusting obedience through what we suffer. We are not free to choose a life free of hurt. But we are free to choose what we do with pain.

God's goal through dreaming with Him, is that people might look at the church and say "who is their Father? I want a dad like their dad". That people would look at the church and ask, "where did they get their freedom, hope and this life from?" The Father is glorified by His children representing them well.
We are son’s and daughters who have been invited to ask the one who rewards those who seek Him (Hebrews 11:6). John 15:7 An invitation to say to Him “What’s on your heart? What do you love? What you need? What would you love to be, feel, and have?
To know what to ask and dream we need to imagine beyond your current experience and picture it to some degree, It’s your imagination that will take you beyond what is humanly possible in your own strength, wisdom and capacity.
Professional Dreams, Family Dreams,Creative Dreams, Places to visit, Skills to master/ hobbies you want to have/sports you want to try, Events to attend, Subjects to research/study,Things you've always wanted to do, Food you want to eat, People you want to meet, Friends you want to have, Things you want to have/buy, Feelings you want to feel, Gifts you want to give.

We are perfectly fitted and prepared to walk in fruit God has appointed us for. He didn’t make a mistake, lets not second guess Him, or talk bad about ourselves. Bold faith sits on the shoulders of quiet trust.
God is always looking for people who will let Him grow them on the inside before He grows them on the outside.

"My sheep hear my voice". Our confidence is not in our ability to hear but in His ability to speak and be heard. Guidance is God's responsibility. My part is in the obedience, and the following.
If we are growing there is always going to be a gap between what we are currently experiencing and where we are going, and what He has promised.
Even when God brings correction His voice has a kind gentle loving tone. Life is always attached to His voice. Saviours don’t accuse and focus upon pointing out faults, rather they rescue. God always brings hope and motivation, He never leaves you despairing and heavy.
