Lord over the Mess!

Is your life a mess because you don't have a purpose to attach your life too?

  

Proverbs 29:18 (MSG)

18 If people can’t see what God is doing,
    they stumble all over themselves;
But when they attend to what he reveals,
    they are most blessed.

We want you to have a passionate relationship with Jesus to attach your life too.  

We want you... 

to Know God, Find Freedom, Discover your purpose, and make a difference.

Here is the counterfeit... 

Know Me, Find Fame, Discover a Platform.  Make a Dime.

There is a When and Then syndrome.  

When I finish school, then I'll do this. 

When I get married, then I'll do that. 

When I get a job, I'll do it then. 

2 Corinthians 6:2  (NCV)

 God says,

“At the right time I heard your prayers.

    On the day of salvation I helped you.” Isaiah 49:8  

We are now standing in the window of God's favor.  

Now is the time to Act.
  

1. Now is the time to commit your whole life to God.

Christianity doesn't and won't work halfway.   

   

Jeremiah 29:13 (NCV)

13 You will search for me. 

And when you search for me with all your heart, you will find me!  

If you don't seek God wholeheartedly, you won't find Him!  

Are you here, but not here because your thoughts and desires are somewhere else? 

You can't date God.  

He can't be on your to do list.  

He must be your to do list.  

Make a public declaration that you have faith in Him.
  

2. Surround yourself with the right people.  

Don't allow wrong relationships to influence you.  

Join a small group of believers.  

3. Discover your God given purpose.

  

Psalm 139:16 (NCV)

you saw my body as it was formed.

All the days planned for me
    were written in your book

    before I was one day old. 

Ephesians 2:10 (NCV)

God has made us what we are. 

In Christ Jesus, God made us to do good works, which God planned in advance for us to live our lives doing.

Before there was a you, there was a plan for you to do.  

The people with the most purpose are the people that are the most happiest.
  

4.  To live our lives doing something that matters most.
  

The time is short.  

Everyday you live life with one less day to make a difference.  

Psalm 90:12 (TLB)

(Lord) Teach us to number our days and recognize how few they are; help us to spend them as we should.  

A.  God matters...

If you're lost, you need to be saved.

B. People matter... 

not your job or your money.

C. Eternity matters...

That's why we tithe. 

Not for buildings.  

That's why we serve.  

This life is a midst.  

A smart person invests all that he has in heaven.  

Why not today?

Give your life to Jesus today!

Lord, nudge them to go all in for you!

James 4:8A (NIRV) Come near to God, and he will come near to you.
