The Lord is looking for those who are in optimal spiritual condition. We have to be determined to seek & search after Him.

John 1:14-18 / Acts 17:26-27 / Col 1:19-21 / Col 1:26-27 / Col 2:6-15 / Gen 17:13 / Job 19:25-27 / Is 26:19 / Matt 27:51 / Hos 13:14

When you come in the name of Jesus, you come in the Lord’s accomplishments & authority. The One who gives you life, became death so that you could walk in life; He became death to destroy death.

Phil 3:7-9 / Eph 1:18-21 / 1Cor 15:3-4 / Ps 16:8-11 / Ps 71:20-21 / Gen 17:13 / Job 19:25-27 / Is 26:19 / Matt 27:51 / Hos 13:14 / John 1 / John 5:25 / John 5:28-29 / Eph 2:1-2 / Eph 2: 4-6 / Col 3:1-3 / Phil 3:10-11 / Acts 4:33

Walking in the love of God means walking in the fullness of God

John 12:12-26 / John 3:16-17 / John 12:27 / Mark 8:27-33 / 1Cor 2:2-16 / Phil 2:5-8 / Eph 5:1-5 / Eph 5:8 / Eph 5:11-14 / Eph 5:22-33 / 1John 3:2-3 / 1John 3:7-9 / 1John 3:16

The Lord doesn't want us to look like us but to look like Him --> He went through the crushing & came out unrecognizable. The process exists to make us of much value to the Lord

1Cor 2:12 / Mal 3:2-3 / Mal 3:16-18 / Mal 4:1 / 2Cor 6:11-12 / Ps 26:2-3 / Jer 17:10a / 2Cor 3:18 / Mal 4:4-6 / Luke 3:16-18 / Ps 24:3-6 / James 3:13-18 / Gal 5:22-23

When the Lord comes upon us then we will know how to engage with the spirit of prayer. There is no other way to be transformed than by being in His presence.

Ps 91:1 / Ps 42:7 / Ps 80:17-18 / Is 40:27-31 / Song of Solomon 1:2-4 / John 15:4-10 / Ex 25:8-9 / John 17:22-23/ Rev 21:3-4 / Ex 27:1 / Rom 12:1-3 / Ex 30:18 / Is 30:18-21

Ministry to the Lord is transformation in your own life; the Lord coming to minister to you and you’re changed in His presence

Col 1:15-16 / Dan 7:9-10 /Deut 10:8-9 / Lev 24:1-4 / 1Sam 3:1-3 / 2Chron 29:11 / 2Chron 29:3-5 / Matt 25:1-13,40 / Joel 2:17 / Acts 13:1-3

Deeper dimensions of prayer come when we are set aside with Him. It’s not a religious duty but time with the Lord. Our time with Him will result in a commissioning for a mission. - When you’re filled with fire, fire comes.

Acts 9:40 / Acts 12:5-7 / Acts 17:6 / Acts 12:11-16 / Heb 7:24-25 / Acts 3:19-21 / Heb 5:5-11 / Rom 8:20 / Ps 42:1-8

What does it look like when we ask the Lord to bend us? - God wants us to be undeniably confident & undeniably desperate

Zech 10:1 / Hosea 6:1-3 / Hosea 10:12 / Acts 8 / Acts 17:6 / Acts 19:18-20 / James 5:15

God wants to connect people but people are afraid to connect. Holy Spirit doesn't want you to be off by yourself but connected in community. 

Isolated = seeking our own interests

Acts 2 / 1Cor 14:1-7 / Acts 3:1-7

Loving the Lord & giving Him lordship are totally different things and just because you love Him doesn't mean He has lordship! 

tarry: to delay or be tardy in acting or doing, to linger in expectation. to abide or stay in or at a place. wait

Luke 24:49 / Acts 1:1-8 / Gal 3:26-27 / Rom 13:11-14 / Eph 4:22-24 / Col 3:12-15 / Acts 1:14 / Ps 133:1-2 / Eph 6:18 / Heb 5:7 / Acts 2:38
