CWC Message with Pastor Kevin Kerr

Luke 2:52 Jesus grew and increased in grace -this is not unmerited favor, but co-laboring w/God to be able to do the next thing God wants done

Normal Routine without surrender is just religion -it has no power

Finish strong 💪

That is where radical transformation begins -when people start ask questions about themselves and what they are doing

Col2:2-8

We are eternal people

Don’t let anyone cheat you out of the real meaning of Christmas

Be blessed

The greater works key is abiding in Him’

Jn15

You abide in me and I in you, ask anything in my name and it will be done for you

Stay tuned stay encouraged and stay in church

Most miracles are connected to your point of obedience 

When we understand the purpose maybe then sometimes we can move on in God's purpose for us? 

Jn9:6 Man who was born blind Was it because of the sin of his father or mother…neither said Jesus but for the glory of God

 Go-wash in the pool of Siloam. All the way across the city in the Kidron Valley. That was a lot of effort for a blind man -He was healed by a process following the process Jesus told him to do -if he wanted his healing. 

Are we willing to do the same to receive our miracle?

What is our ability to stay in the game and stay forging ahead?

How can I find out how to enforce my victory in Christ?

Aggressive Obedience

Our winning and losing doesn’t determine our spiritual standing with God

Our obedience does

-Man may reject you and your work. But regardless of that we need to complete our work. The work God assigned to us to establish our destiny, purpose, inheritance and legacy.

When and if it is done, be willing to shelve our work and efforts and take a step back. If your labor is done, now it is the time for God. God will take the action. You stay in faith.  It may not be the way you want, but that is not your victory. Doing what God asked you to do is your victory whether men decide to embrace it or not.

Embracing the process of your journey with Thankfulness

With Thanksgiving in all diverse situations

Never ending journey

There’s a posture we come into when we give praise

Psalm of Thanksgiving

Psalms 100:1-5 I will enter his gates with Thanksgiving in my heart

Make a joyful shout unto the Lord

Come before His presence with singing

Hebrew “Praise”

I will enter his gates with tôdâh, and his courts with tehillâh.

“tehillâh” means glorifying praise

“tôdâh” means to extend the hand for a friendly greeting

Extended hands is shaking God’s hand

How does God expand His kingdom ?

He expands your capacity through your praise to receive more blessing.

-Be blessed

1Sam30

David encouraged himself in the Lord, then he asked for the ephod (prayer shawl -prayer closet), THEN he inquired of the Lord.

We believe David remembers (was aware of ) his divine prophetic appointment for kingship as his purpose and destiny. He took responsibility, faced it, and did not faint or back down.

Jesus had a disturbing way of issuing challenges in order for your faith to grow

Faith and trust,

How can I find out what the Lord wants me to do?

Sanctified means to be set apart

1Thes 5:23

Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you completely; and may your whole spirit, soul, and body be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Soul is your mind intellect and character

If we can be effective, our sanctified intellect works together with our sanctified character

Be blessed
