Lessons from Bill Johnson, part 2
Genesis 28:10
The ladder went from EARTH TO Heaven.
Things happen when we reach up to Heaven.
We pray; He answers. It’s His economy.
Intercede!
v. 16 God can be doing something, and we miss it. Father, open our eyes and ears to You!!!
v. 17 Jacob was afraid. “How awesome is this place”. “House of God” – first time that this shows up in the Bible. There was no building present.
John 1:14 “The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the One and Only,[d] who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.”
DWELT AMONG US
John 1:51 Angels ascending and descending on the Son of MAN.
Son of MAN – not Son of God, in this case. Jesus modeled Christian living. He did things first and then had us do it.
Jesus is the light of the world. Then, He called us salt and LIGHT.
Israel blew it in the desert because they didnt know God’s WAYS. Hebrews 3:10
Father, what is YOUR Nature? Show me! Lord, do not let me go astray in my heart. Please, Jesus.
Psalm 104 – God rides on wind. Wind = Angels
Worry and Anxiety is faith in the inferior. Insecurity = exposure of the wrong security.
DISCOVER THE PRESENCE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
Ephesians 3:10-20
PRAY FOR INCREASE IN THE AWARENESS OF HIS PRESENCE. Yes, LORD, show me You in motion. Increase my awareness. Give me the eyes to see and ears to hear.
v20 beyond our imagination and faith in prayer according to the power that works in you…
Between your wildest dreams and your deepest prayers, God releases His power.
In the measure that He has worked in you, He works out of you.
Always go to God for what you want. Dont whine and complain to others. Just go to God.
