One Mind – Power is Voice Activated

One Mind – Power is Voice Activated

ONE MIND – ACTS 2:46-47 – WE’RE MOVING FORWARD WITH ONE MIND – THAT’S WHY WE’RE FOCUSING ON SONSHIP


Recap Last Week – Son-ship and Authority 101:  Genesis 1:28″God blessed them; and God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it…”


“subdue” – Hebrew word, “kavash”literally means to place your foot on the neck of your conquered enemy signifying a submission of the enemy to his defeater.A similar word, malak, means to have dominion over, or to rule over


FROM THE VERY BEGINNING WE WERE TO HAVE SONSHIP AUTHORITY

HOW MANY TIMES DO WE BEG GOD TO DO SOMETHING?

GOD HEAL ME, GOD PROSPER ME, GOD PLEASE….


Many of us believe that God CAN DO ANYTHING but that He HAS DONE NOTHING – and we HAVE TO BEG or pray UNTIL HE MOVES…


HE GAVE US THE AUTHORITY AND POWER FROM GENESIS!!!


Jesus told us to… Matthew 10:8 – “Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, cast out demons.  Freely you received, freely give.”


He DIDN’T say… pray for the sick… pray for the afflicted…  He said to DO IT – YOU HEAL THE SICK, RAISE THE DEAD…  YOU FREELY GIVE


You may ask… yes, but that was JESUS… I’m just me… I’m a nobody…  

THAT.  IS.  A.  LIE. 

Romans 8:11 – “… the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus form the dead swells in you…”


John 14:12 – “Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do, he will do also; and greater works than these he will do; because I go to my Father.”


WE HAVE THE AUTHORITY


WE HAVE THE POWER


WE ALSO HAVE A RESPONSIBILITY –     TO CHANGE OUR WORDS.


HOW DO WE TYPICALLY PRAY???


It’s a lot easier to just say… “well, if it’s God’s will…” – that takes the responsibility off of us

If it works out, then “I prayed for that!”

If it doesn’t, we can blame God for it – it must’ve just not been His will…

It’s a SAFE way to pray…


He has already DONE what He’s going to do…  On the Cross

He became sin and sickness – IT IS FINISHED


HIS POWER IS IN YOU.  YOU HAVE IT.  IT’S OUR RESPONSIBILITY TO USE IT.


IF YOU AREN’T SEEING GOD MOVE…

IT’S BECAUSE WE AREN’T TAKING OUR AUTHORITY, LETTING GOD’S POWER, THE POWER HE GAVE US, THE POWER THAT’S IN US, TO FLOW THROUGH US


THAT’S HARD TO HEAR… BUT IT’S SCRIPTURE… IT’S TRUTH


SUCH AS I HAVE…

Acts 3:1-8Focus on – Acts 3:6 – SUCH AS I HAVE… 

WE HAVE IT.  YOU HAVE IT. – THIS SCRIPTURE MAKES US RESPONSIBLE


HOW DO WE RELEASE THIS POWER THROUGH OUR WORDS? 

Proverbs 18:21

“the power of life and death are in the tongue”

“Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit”

Death AND Life – no in-between

Our words are VITAL – they’re releasing either LIFE OR DEATH when we speak  (eat its fruit)

SPEAK LIFE – CHOOSE OUR WORDS, CHANGE OUR WORDS

CHANGE OUR WORDS TO WHAT???

FIG TREE:

Matthew 21:18-22
Mark 11:12-14
Mark 11:20-24
Mark 11:22-23 – SPEAK TO YOUR MOUNTAIN

BREAK DOWN   MATTHEW 21:18-22  &  MARK 11  –  what you SAY and what you BELIEVE

SPEAK TO YOUR MOUNTAIN

SPEAK TO YOUR MOUNTAIN ABOUT GOD – NOT TO GOD ABOUT YOUR MOUNTAIN

Talking to God about our mountain usually ends up in a venting or complaining session.

Which is okay, sometimes we need to vent….  but it’s not like He doesn’t ALREADY know… 

The DANGER in that is that it sets us up for unbelief – that our problem is too big – our hope is diminished


SPEAK DIRECTLY TO YOUR MOUNTAIN – WITHOUT DOUBT!!!


ROMANS:  To be saved we must CONFESS with our MOUTH and BELIEVE in our heart that Jesus is Lord…   SPEAK AND BELIEVE


It’s not just our words… it’s our belief. 

That’s why we can say stuff like, “that tickled me to death” and we don’t die. 

But if we hear something often and long enough, we begin to believe it

That’s how we stay sick… we’re always talking about our aches and pains

That’s how we stay defeated… we’re always talking about our problems

We speak it enough that we believe it


IF WE CHANGE OUR WORDS AND SPEAK THE TRUTH – OFTEN ENOUGH – OUR BELIEF WILL LINE UP WITH TRUTH

WE HAVE TO MEDITATE ON THE WORD OF GOD

SPEAK LIFE

SPEAK LIFE OVER OUR HEALTH

SPEAK LIFE OVER OUR FINANCES

SPEAK LIFE OVER OUR RELATIONSHIPS

BUT WE HAVE TO SPEAK IT!   AND BELIEVE IT!!!   

BUT WE HAVE TO SPEAK IT FIRST!!!


WE HAVE TO SPEAK DIRECTLY TO OUR MOUNTAIN

OUR POWER IS VOICE ACTIVATED
