a.       The purpose of our instruction is love (1 Tim 1:5).

b.      Purpose is to encourage you to study, fellowship with God and meditate.

c.       Goal is to become agents of God to:

                                                              i.      Bring forth purposes of the Kingdom

                                                            ii.      Destroy the works of the devil (1 John 3:8)

                                                          iii.      Prepare the way of the King (Matt 11:10)

d.      I want to clear misconceptions and false expectations

e.       Show the way to know and experience God’s will abundantly beyond all (Eph 3:20) according to the power that works within us!

f.       Experience victory that we might praise His Name.

g.      That we might have a fresh testimony so we might have impact.

h.      These things have been revealed to us upon whom the end of the ages have come (1 Cor 10-11).

i.        Purpose is to build and equip that you might experience answered prayer.

j.        Desire must build to see a manifestation of the Glory of God including in our families.

k.      That we might live in the power of the endless blessing overcoming every tribulation and difficulty or storm.

l.        That we might know Him and display His Glory.

 

2.      Context is intimacy and disciplines of prayer and meditation

a.       To exercise faith and authority you must know the King.

b.      We must be filled with the knowledge of His will (Col. 1:9-10)

c.       The foremost commandment is to love God.

d.      If you want power then closeness is essential, look at the President’s men.

e.       Time with God can not be substituted for anything else.

f.       Time with His Word, not just reading but also meditating. Truth in the innermost parts (Psalm 51:6).

g.      Working the word in to your being will enlarge your capacity to produce, to receive and to give.

h.      (The dynamics of meditation are very little understood or practiced thereby getting mediocre results.)

i.        Unity is the goal (John 17), we are to know Him (Genesis 4:1).

j.        Not just raw obedience but oneness is what God desires with His people.

 

a.       Prayer doesn’t change God’s mind, it positions us to bring things forth, to create, to birth as He works in us and through us (according to the power that works within us, Eph 3)

b.      The disciples studied Jesus and the God kind of faith in order to emulate the Master (1John 4:17) that we might be as He is in this world.

c.       The ever-present guidance of the Holy Spirit is sought in prayer because the anointing teaches us (1 John 2:27).

d.      The Holy Spirit is a coach and the Word is the anchor keeping us rooted in Him, the Work must abide in us (John 15)

e.       The authority is exercised when we see through God’s eyes.

f.       Our expectation is misplaced if we keep waiting for God to do something externally.

g.      Our mindset must change for God is primarily working in the hearts of men.

h.      As He changes us we create a bridge between heaven and earth (Matt 6:9-10).

i.        It is our responsibility to bring the Glory of God to bear into the earth (2 Cor 1:20)

j.        In this passage we see the centrality of Jesus, in Him not apart of Him.

k.      God’s will for us has already been stated, it is Yes! Yes to your desires per His promises.

l.        How to obtain, the way, righteousness, is the key and critical element of results being achieved.

m.    God created man in His image, look at Genesis. We are not divine but we become partakers of His promises (2 Pet 1:4).

n.      God is not interested in feeding you a fish daily the rest of your life, He wants to teach you how to fish.

o.      Achieve unity and frequency conjunction with God to experience power on any given matter. (Heb 11:1)

p.      Faith creates in unity with God, study the Master and see the result of His intimacy with the Father. He knew His will and every thought of God was His. Look at how he chose His 12 apostles. A humanity impacting decision was the result.

q.      In order to hear we must realize who we are and what is going on inside us. This knowledge is currently lacking in the church.

r.        Self-awareness and examination of conscience is necessary. Know yourself and what is going on inside oneself.

s.       All inside me, every believe, every thought and sentiment must be in accordance with Him, His Word, His principles to get the perfect fruit.

t.        We must train our own human spirit to think the thoughts of God, desire His purposes, and produce His desire on the earth.

u.      A house divided will not stand (Mk 3:25).

                                                              i.      Unstable minds don’t produce (James 1:6-8)

                                                            ii.      Spirit, soul and body in alignment with what the spirit of man is receiving from the Holy Spirit and with the Word.

v.      Distinguish between soul and spirit.

w.    Believe you have received, don’t keep hoping. He already said yes.

x.      What is the sovereignty of God? His righteousness in you.

y.      If you’re seeking an audience with God, you’re seeking His approval, hoping He’ll say yes. That is not righteousness.

z.       Having already received my thoughts are way beyond the present in a place of abundance. I only have expectations of good things, a full life, free to accomplish all.

aa.   This process must be on-going within.

bb. Eph 1:5-6, 12 Wholehearted agreement with His Word, embracing the Truth, Jesus Himself.

cc.   Full agreement is putting on the mind of Christ and discerning God and in God.

 

a.       As this process of faith and love, of confidence, assurance and trust takes hold then I become a co-creator with God.

b.      I am a co-inheritor with Jesus to create as God creates, having the thoughts of God, declaring the promises of God.

c.       We are agreeing with God declaring His Word and changing the atmosphere and circumstances as I allow God to change me!

d.      The primary work is inside of us, then the resources of Heaven are released through me.

e.       We have the Word, the Precious Blood, the Anointing and many more resources in Jesus (Rom 8:32).

f.       I must be seeking to contemplate those resources and seek righteousness. How to obtain the fulfillment of my desire.

g.      To impact a nation I need His way established in me and then it produces.

h.      This is faith in action, faith is an action. (Wheelchair ex.) Not in denial of natural reality but in agreement with the Word of God, knowing the fullness of His will.

i.        That we might be to the praise of the Glory of His Name in spiritual wisdom and understanding.

j.        Example of Kenneth Hagin, “I have believed”, He said to Jesus.

k.      Revelation is inside not outside.

l.        Bringing forth the purposes of God into the Earth as they transpire in me.

m.    Study and think differently. Behold the Son in a different light. See how He loves you.

n.      Fear not, little flock (Lk 12:32) and Rom 8:32 again. Thanks.
