Stuck between the Red Sea and Pharaoh’s Army? Stand still! Look at Jesus. Keep quiet, and move forward. The Lord will fight for you! Even when the obstacle is still there, it’s our responsibility to trust God, and keep moving forward to what He’s told us to do. What have you seen God do in your life before now? He can do it again!
Exodus 14:9–15, Psalm 46:10, Jeremiah 32:27, Exodus 19:4, Exodus 19:1–6
CHURCH – our lane is the EARTH! It’s God’s dominion. Jesus is the King, and the world needs the truth to be set free. God put a system in place to have His will be done on earth – PRAYER & DOMINION. We must be in relational communion with God in order to exercise the delegated authority for influencing all areas of society. The ramification of Christians not taking dominion is ungodliness ruling.
Psalm 115:16, Luke 11:1–4, Genesis 3:8, James 5:16–18, Genesis 1:26–28
“CHRISTIAN” means CHRIST-LIKE, it does not mean church-goer.
What are we choosing?
What are we becoming?
Examining “As it is in Heaven” (Matthew 6 : 9-13) means examining what we are choosing. Choosing His Kingdom AUTOMATICALLY means saying “no” to the kingdom of the Earth. It is a love relationship with the King of Kings, Jesus, that causes lesser loves to fall away.
When the Kingdom of Heaven comes, it will not fit into the ways of the world. (John 18
Matthew 6:9–13, John 18:36
What if everything we’ve ever known about Church, is not like it is in Heaven?
What if what we’re comfortable with is not God?
What if what makes us comfortable doesn’t make Him comfortable?
Church it’s not about us. It’s about Jesus, and God wants to break a culture of religion that is picky and preferential. God is wanting us to transition from singing about someone to seeing Him, for our worship to become about Him, and not just words we sing. As it is in Heaven. The challenge is sacrificing our will and choosing and trusting that what God wants is better than what I am sure is good. It’s laying our crowns down. It’s looking at Him and saying Holy, Holy, because He is worthy of all the praise on the Earth as it is in Heaven.
Matthew 6:9–13
Jesus has all authority in the Earth. This is Jesus’ earth, and He’s looking for ambassadors who will possess it for Him as authorized representatives of Jesus, as God pleads through our lives for people to be reconciled to Him. Our lives should be a walking billboard, through our words and actions – “Be reconciled to God.” It’s our job to take back the earth, teaching people to obey and conform their lives to be like Jesus. Church, we have to stop apologizing about the message of Jesus on the Earth, while the Kingdom of Darkness is boldly shouting its agenda. It’s Jesus’ earth!
