Life Around "The Fire"

We're taking a brief detour from part 2 of our series on Ephesian chapter 3.
Sometimes it's important for us to let other people know that we are going through a hard time ... even if you're a leader.
In fact, if you're a leader it's more important for you to model how to listen to a person who is saying they are struggling as well as at times telling those around you that you're having a hard time.
The Church is meant to be a community of people that serve as a  spiritual training center,  spirutal hospital, and spiritual army (to name a few).
This is a public service reminder that it's okay, even healthy, to let people know when you are not doing or feeling well.
Growing up together ... connected in love.

Life is not lived in a sterile environment.
The Scriptures weren't written in a sterile, ivory , tower.
Life is lived in the "real world".
The Scriptures were written in the "real world".
Supernatural Life can be expressed through us right now, really.
Let's be real people with real supernatural life and power flowing through us into a "real world" that really needs to expeience a real relationship with a real, loving God!

Realizing we have a new access to new ways of doing things because of being transformed through the new birth into citizenship of God's Kingdom can take a while for it to actually sink in.
The reality that I am a new creation by the Life transformation that transpired as I entered into covenant with Yeshu'a is divine and mind expanding.
Like we said, it takes a while for it to really sink in.
Some of us have actually been taught that the power of miracles, signs, and wonders is dead and gone.
Or, we've that we need to wait until we die and "Go to heaven" when we can utilize the power of God's Life in us.
And some of us have been clueless over the whole thing.
Well that's going to be changing as we continue to allow God to be God to us and through us and stop putting limitations on things simply because of our old  belief systems.

Discovering the spiritual power found in our identity in Christ is an amazing reality to embrace.
Living a sub-standard exhistance and calling it normal is so often a far cry from who were really are designed to become even more.
Many of us have lived in the dark or have been held down for various reasons as it pertains to knowing and living in the power of resurrection life now.
Even the foretaste of what is coming exceeds our abilty to explain with the words we have.
That's why the only language that often suffices is only found speaking in glossolalia (aka tongues).
We are endued with power and possess great riches right now.
WThe fact is w are in training for eternity.
Eternity starts now!

An Evangelist someone who proclaims news.
An Evangelist is not a "Super Christian" or "Celebrity Spokesman"
An Evangelist is also someone who brings the Truth and the Good News of God and His Kingdom.
"Sister" Sheila will be presenting why and how that is necessary and relevant to the world which we live in today.
Part 2 of this 2 part series involves several stories concerning God' s dynamic power He displays and how He saves and transfoms lives when people turn from their sinful lifestyles unto Him, the Author and Perfecter of Divine Love and Forgiveness.

Power Evangelism ... Once you've acknowledged that miracles, signs, and wonders are still some of the ways God demonstates the reality of Who He is, then evangelism without that type of power is like pushing a car on ones own energy vs it being super-powered with an energy source that is able to cause your vehicle to perform far beyond the limitations of your own human strength.
Yes, God can get things done without us.
God can and has used a donkey to talk on His behalf.
He has used a stick that was poked in the water causing an axe head to float. 
But is that what He really wants to use to manifest His Kingdom?
No!
He wants to use us as naturally, supernatural people of His Kingdom.
He wants to use us to capture the atention of others so that they can experience a born-again relationship with God.
He wants us to function in His power just like Jesus did.
Jesus is still doing it... through the Ecclesia ... The Church ... His Body of believers on Earth.
"Sister" Shiela covers a topic we all need to hear ... It's called: Power Evangelism.

Who am I and where did I come from.
Every "Prophet" has that question to answer.

I love the fact that one of the truest signs of spiritual maturity is no longer having the need to be recognized or getting upset if someone else got more attention and credit for a job you did.
Being spiritually mature as a community of Christians involves each of us  daily crucifying our need to be an independent, rugged, individualist.
We don't need Supermen or Lone Rangers.
We are all called to grow up as one seeing Jesus/Yeshu'a exalted as One Head of His Body ... the Ecclessia ... the holy ones ... the Church.
In this episode we're going to look at a man we know litle about except He was gifted by God, born-again of God's Spirit, follower of Jesus, and a good friend who loved to encourage people ... Tychicus.
