Rehoboth - Celebrating our 9 year anniversary
Ephesians 5:25-32 25 Husbands love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;
26 That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,
27 That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.
28 So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself.
29 For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church:
30 For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.
31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.
32 This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church.
✓When He speaks of the church He is not talking about the building.
✓He will come back for His people.
✓Ecclesia- God's people. ; Called together by God to listen or to act for God
✓We are called together. We are not here by accident.
✓He put something down in you so it can be used by the church
I Corinthians 12:18 18 But now hath God set the members every one of them in the body, as it hath pleased him.
✓You are NOT HERE by accident!
✓IMPACT CHURCH is not complete unless you are here!
✓We don’t wrestle by flesh and blood but by principalities…. The ENEMY’S JOB IS TO GET YOU DISLOCATED!
✓Dislocate: Move from its proper place or position.
✓Strengthen the muscles around the shoulder so the shoulder needs to stay in place!
✓Luke 5:18-19. 18 And, behold, men brought in a bed a man which was taken with a palsy: and they sought means to bring him in, and to lay him before him. 19 And when they could not find by what way they might bring him in because of the multitude, they went upon the housetop, and let him down through the tiling with his couch into the midst before Jesus.
✓He was Connected To The Right People!
✓You got to strengthen your relationships in church to help you stay in place!
✓You need accountability.
✓Relationships!
✓God has positioned you here and placed people around you for a purpose!
✓Luke 5:20 20 And when he saw their faith, he said unto him, Man, thy sins are forgiven thee.
✓“THEIR” Faith. Your deliverance is connected to relationships.
✓Genesis 26:22 22 And he removed from thence, and digged another well; and for that they strove not: and he called the name of it Rehoboth; and he said, For now the LORD hath made room for us, and we shall be fruitful in the land.
✓“ROOM”. Fruitful in the land! Plenty of space!
✓The Enemy does not want the church to prosper or expand!
✓Isaiah 58:12 12 And they that shall be of thee shall build the old waste places: thou shalt raise up the foundations of many generations; and thou shalt be called, The repairer of the breach, The restorer of paths to dwell in.
✓II Kings 5 Naaman. (Read) Be ready for something new God has for us! Paradigm Shift: Revolution!
