A Lens - Not A Promise

  • Watch

Week #3: Message Bottom Line - My One Word is a LENS through which you will SEE, not a PROMISE which you must keep. Key Verse: But as it is written: “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, Nor have entered into the heart of man. The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.” 1 Corinthians 2:9 MY ONE WORD: ONE WORD forces CLARITY. I am amazed at how clear something can seem while it is in my head until when I try to explain it to someone else. Articulation has a way of dissipating fog like nothing else. ONE WORD focuses EFFORT. Instead of trying to do everything, your one word is going to help you narrow your focus, so your efforts will be effective. [scott smith video] Review: Week #1: Every Story Of TRANSFORMATION Begins With A WORD From God. Week #2: Do SOMETHING About ONE THING Instead Of NOTHING About Everything. Week #3: My One Word is a LENS through which you will SEE, not a PROMISE which you must keep. HOMEWORK: List of CHARACTERISTICS: List 10-15 words, then narrow it down to just one. What impact will each ‘word’ have on the way you see your life? RESIST Making Promises: Instead, see the ‘word’ from God in your life that makes you dependent, not committed. FOCUS on What you SEE: This is a process. Simply, get into a position to see Christ at work deeply and intimately in your heart through your ‘word’! I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened, so that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints,19and what is the surpassing greatness of His power toward us who believe. Ephesians 1:18, 19
