A Season Redefining
One of the mistakes of culture and cultural Christianity is to come up with a definition of something like “grace” or “the will of God” and then adjust scripture to fit our definition
We have to change, not God and His kingdom
Truth never changes, but our perceptions and applications have to change it’s called a “wineskin”
You can’t put something new into something that has stretched as far as it can stretch. Because God is always doing something new in us, we will always need redefining, pruning and adjusting
FocusEncounter initiated “He needed to go” deliberate intent on the part of Jesus vs 4
Right Place vs 5-6
Right Time vs 6
Right Person vs 7
NEW
New water- a new gift from and old place vs 7-14
A new revelation vs 15-26
A new invitation vs 29
Nourishment
Has anyone brought Him something to eat?
Mystery Food vs 32
Food is nutrition, strength to the body, that which sustains, keeps you going, power, energy
My feast is to do the will of the Father
Will Food
Will- that which is willed, desired, the gracious design, a deliberate design, that which is purposed,
deliberate exercise of that which is desired
Could it be that the biggest hinderance to being a good son, is that we struggle against or avoid that which is His will concerning us
Will ExampleMatthew 18:14, it is not His will, His design that any one should perish
Mark 3:35, there is a new level of family found in doing His pleasure, His desire, His will
Righteousness is pursuing God’s agenda, with a commitment to act on His divine instructions. This is how Jesus determines justice John 5:30
Acts 13:22 God removed Saul and raised up David not because of behavior but because the intent of Davids heart was to do His will
Captivity and Will
Captivity is defined by not being allowed to function in your design or in the desire of the one who gave you purpose and design 2 Timothy 2:26 See Amplified
When captive we can become disconnected from truth and our spiritual senses don’t work and God’s will in us is not accomplished
Kingdom Will/ Matthew 7:21-23
Religious speak does not necessarily gain entrance into the kingdom
Doing the will of the Father, being a good son, honoring the Fathers design and purpose brings entry
Because a person prophesies/casts out demons does not mean its kingdom activity
Lawlessness is a symptom of our own will instead of His will.
It’s all tied to being a good son Psalms 40:8-9
Right SeasonWhat is the seed that brings into the right season and into a harvest?
His will is the seed. Our will dies out His a seed of faith bursts forth
Good things happening are not luck but being in His will brings us into the fullness of His timing, in the right place
The seed of His will has our destiny written on it
The destiny cannot be released until the seed has allowed itself to be planted Psalms 1
