The Measured Life

Provision or Promise?

Romans 2:4

Maybe this should be our prayer

Pray this:

Lord make me a vessel, so I can be used as an instrument 🎷 🎻 🎺 with the anointing to break yokes of bondage

Mostly if we’re honest, we want to pray for God to equip us before the battle..maybe so we think we know how to win..?

God is looking to equip you during the battle. So which one is more of faith? -Yeah

-Fear can masquerade as wisdom

God is not always looking for our correctness

Numbers 13:2

-The 12 spies relied on wisdom… all 12 of them were correct

God only considered only 2 spies a good report

2Kings 13 Elisha

The measure -King tapping his arrow on the ground only 3 times.

Mark 4The measure

Matthew 7:2

A Measure is:

-We are given a just a limited portion of a much greater standard

We set the standard ourselves for our blessing

-When we apply the enthusiasm..that is where our measure is

-By the measure WE say yes is tied to our promises that God wants to pour out on us

When God asks us to do more he wants to pour out more blessings on those who do

Fear keeps you out of the promise

Fear interferes with your assignment

Fear can masquerade itself as wisdom

-One minister said, “To live cautiously your friends might call you prudent and wise -but you wont move any mountains”.

My portion is the life of following Christ came for…with greater promise

Not even Jesus could do it on His own

-Jesus entrusted His life totally to God the father in His death. The Father sent the Holy Spirit to raise Him

Romans 8:11

Romans 2:4

The goodness of God leads you to repentance.. is Gods plan A….hellfire and brimstone preaching is plan B. Usually reversed..why? Do we really believe
