Message from 05/01/2020 by Dave Kruger

Acts 2:14-41
Peter Addresses the Crowd

Pivotal in New Testament teaching.
Why? 

• Partly because God used one man who was initially chosen….  
• once ran in fear and denied Jesus. 
• stood up. 
• Spoke boldly. 
• Within minutes he captivates his audience with some compelling words.  
  ***
  Simon Peter, also known as Cephas – “Peter the Rock” (John 1:42), 
• He was one of the first followers of Jesus Christ. 
• He was an outspoken and ardent disciple, 
• one of Jesus’ closest friends, 
• an apostle, and
• Paul writes that he was a “pillar” of the church (Galatians 2:9). 
• Peter was enthusiastic, strong-willed, impulsive, and, at times, brash. 
• He was a fisherman, 
• a husband, 
• and brother of Andrew

PETER HAD CHARISMA
“Charisma is compelling attractiveness or charm that can inspire devotion in others”
Or Cambridge Dictionary
“a special power that people have naturally that makes them able to influence other people and attract their attention and 
admiration”

Ephesians 4:11-13 
WE WERE CREATED FOR SPIRITUAL MATURITY, AND SO FOR US LEADERS, OUR RESPONSIBILITY IS TO EQUIP YOU TO STEP INTO YOUR MINISTRY.

Zechariah 2:1-5 
“Run, tell that young man, ‘Jerusalem will be a city without walls because of the great number of people and animals in it.  
HEBREWS 13

TO BE A CHURCH WITHOUT WALLS. ITS NOT A PICTURE OF A PHYSICAL CHURCH
BUT THIS IS RATHER A PICTURE OF JESUS STANDING WITH A MEASURING TAPE IN HIS HAND, ASKING YOU THE QUESTION. 

• WHO ARE YOU? 
• WHERE ARE YOU GOING? 
• WHAT ARE YOU DOIN? 
• ARE YOU READY?

ITS CONTEXTUAL

Church is NOT a Building
Scripture makes it very clear what a church is and what it is supposed to be. It is not a building. It is not a program. It is not a single service. 
The Church is God's people gathering together COLLECTIVELY to worship Him and do His will. 
The Church is You
Which means Being a Church without walls means we offer unconditional acceptance to people who are hopeless and with people we don’t get along with

Choices – The story of Samson

Judges 13 – 16

Choice 1: What do we do with what has been given to us?

Choice 2: Who do we spend our time with?

Choice 3: How do we react?

Choice 4: Who do we share with?

Choice 5: How do we respond when confronted with sin?

“Great choices lead to great character”

James 1:17

 Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.

 Sparks shooting everywhere with the potential to light other fires. Our church has sent people out to be instrumental in other churches.

Zechariah 2 v 4 - “A city without walls” “God will be our wall of fire”

Hebrews 12 v 28-29 - “A kingdom that cannot be shaken”

Discipline is critical in your life. You are what you repeatedly do. Process: Thoughts – Actions – Habits – Character - Future (As a man thinks, so is he)

Fire = Destruction ... but also cleansing. Fire is a process.

A glimpse of what heaven is like: just look at a local church that works well. Family held together by the presence of God. Togetherness as believers is essential to staying “ignited”. A log on it’s own cannot continue burning. Jesus is the fire! We’re just the wood.

Fire needs (to burn):

• Dry fuel
• Oxygen
• Heat / spark

1 Corinthians 3 - “Build with quality materials that won’t get burned up in the fire”

God works all things to the good of those who love him and are called to his purpose. We have to trust that God is the consuming fire. Allow the love of Christ, through people, to invade your space.

Story: Paul gets bitten by a snake, shakes it off in the fire and does not die. That testimony sparks a church plant right there.

Prophetic Word over us: We are an “aircraft carrier”

• Blessed are you when you believe that the Lord will fulfil his promises to you.
• God initiates. I come in line.
• We don’t walk ahead or behind of His promises, we walk IN His promises. But we do need to respond.
• “We see Foresight like an aircraft carrier. You will be a base for sending out and refuelling missions.” 
• The aircraft carrier is on of the most offensive weapons that a military can command. (Crew of 6000 for 180 pilots)
• The purpose of an aircraft carrier is to be in a strategic place in the world close to the action sending out fighter planes to attack and/or protect. 
• “The fruit of a prophet is not prophecies, but prophets, because they should be equipping the saints” 
• We don’t send out our weakest... We send our strongest.

Descriptions of what we do:

• We work with other churches. (NCMI)
• We resource each other with time, treasure and talents. 
• We are not a solo act.
• We partner with other churches and make use of their strengths.
• We strengthen and encourage other churches.
• 5 FOLD MINISTRY: we send and receive in and out of the church.
• Culture of generosity
• Culture of prayer and fasting
• Appoint elders in each church
• Gather the church and give feedback

“I pray because I can't help myself. I pray because I'm helpless. I pray because the need flows out of me all the time, waking and sleeping. It doesn't change God. It changes me.” ― C.S. Lewis

- In Mat 6 - Jesus taught us how to pray.
- If you don’t have a prayer life in secret, you won’t accomplish things in public. (v5)
- Prayer is relational communication.
- Prayer is not an information session, God knows all the details, He wants to know if you want to talk about it. (v8)

Tips to lead to a “posture of prayer”

1. Pray simply.
2. Read your bible and pray verses.
3. Make prayer active and multi-sensory.
4. Make prayer an integral part of your life – a lifestyle.
5. Pray expectantly.

God wants to INCREASE AND ENLARGE everyone of us. There are POSTURES that bring increase and enlargement.
Is 9: 3 - You have enlarged the nation and increased their joy; they rejoice before you as people rejoice at the harvest, as warriors rejoice when dividing the plunder.

OUTLINE OF SERIES:
1. Posture of worship – received by Grace.
2. Posture of the Farmer – Received by labour (work for it).
3. Posture of a warrior – Received through training.

THE POSTURE OF WORSHIP (20 OCT)
Worship is a posture of Surrender. Worship and Surrender set us free from the shackles that the enemy has put on us.
Jehoshaphat won the war with praise and worship (2 Chronicles 20: 20-23) (You win the war inside to win the war outside.)
Worship & surrender means “rightstanding” with God.
Surrendering is not occasional moments but a lifestyle of worship.
The more fully you relinquish yourself to Him, the more you will discover that He has your best interests at heart and that His will truly is “good, acceptable, and perfect” (see Romans 12:2). The whole idea of surrendering to someone else’s control runs counter to the prevailing mind set of our culture—we don’t want anyone telling us what to do—we want to be in control of our own lives! But paradoxically, we are never truly free until we have fully surrendered ourselves to the Word and will of God.

2. Posture of the Farmer – Received by labour (work for it). *Previous Episode*
3. Posture of a warrior – Received through training
- We need to remember that we are in a WAR. We need to train for the WAR and always be
prepared. There is a difference between being acceptable and exceptional. Most people just exist and do not rule.
- We can also fight for one another by holding each other accountable and praying for one another.
- We have to fight against all the wrong input into our lives. Either God is in control of your life or the devil is.
- Praying in the spirit is a powerful weapon.
- The word of God, the spirit of God and fasting are important weapons in spiritual warfare.
- Internal victory = corporate victory.
