  1. Breaking barriers and receiving Christ’s mind Introduction: implant , secure, operate. ROMAN Numeral I page 10-1

  2. Romans 12:2 And do not be conformed to this world , but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect. HOW??? The Word of God The Spirit of God The Community of Believers/Be Discipled

  3. Jesus answered with Scripture 1. Luke 4: And Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit… 2. Luke 4:4 “It is written , Man shall not live on bread alone.”( Deut 8:3) 3. Luke 4:8 “ It is written, you shall worship the Lord your God and serve Him only.” ( Deut 6:13) 4. Luke 4:12 “It is said, You shall not force a test on the Lord your God.” ( Deut 6:6)

  4. Satan Quoted Scripture Luke 4:9-11 And he led him to Jerusalem and set him on the pinnacle of the temple, and said to Him ,”If You are the Son of God , cast Yourself down from here; for it is written, ‘He will give His angles charge concerning you to guard you.’ and, ‘On their hands they will bear you up, lest you strike your foot against a stone.’ “(Psalm 9:11,12)

  5. James 2:19 You believe that God is one. You do well; the demons also believe, and shudder.

  6. Who bewitched you? Galatians 3:1, 3, 5. Who has bewitched you before whose eyes Jesus Christ was publicly portrayed as crucified? …having begun by the Spirit, are you now being perfected in the flesh? Does He then who provides you with the Spirit and works miracles among you , do it by the works of the Law, or by hearing with faith?

  7. Word of God is Alive The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father , full of grace and truth . John 1:14 For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart. Hebrews 4:12

  8. The Holy Spirit But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit , whom the Father will send in my name , will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you. John 14:26 Those who live according to the flesh have their minds set on what the flesh desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires. The mind governed by the flesh is death , but the mind governed by the Spirit is life and peace. Romans 8:5,6

  9. Hold to the Word that God has spoken in His son Hebrews Drift from the Word--- 2:1-4 Doubt the Word---3:7-4:13 Dullness toward the Word -–5:11- 6:20 Despising the Word-- 10:26-39 Defying the Word---12:14-29

  10. John 15 Abide in the Vine “I AM THE VINE ;YOU ARE THE BRANCHES. IF YOU REMAIN IN ME AND I IN YOU, YOU WILL BEAR MUCH FRUIT ; APART FROM ME YOU CAN DO NOTHING.”

  11. Romans 6:4 Therefore we have been buried with Him through baptism into death, in order that as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father , so that we too might walk in newness of life. ROMAN II page 10-1 “baptized with His baptism of self sacrifice and be buried with Him in death to self”

  12. Instruments of Purification I.O.P. “But let us not be discouraged. Let us look upon every brother who tries or vexes us , as God’s means of grace, God’s instrument for our purification, for our exercise of the humility Jesus our life breathes within us. And let us have such faith in the all of God, and the nothing of self, that , as nothing in our own eyes, we may , in God’s power , only seek to serve one another in love.” Andrew Murray, HUMILITY Chapter 6

  13. Galatians 6:14-17 But may it never be that I should boast, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world. For neither is circumcision anything , nor is uncircumcision anything , but a new creation . And those who will walk by this rule , peace and mercy be upon them, and upon the Israel of God.

  14. Dying to SelfAndrew Murray Divine love is perfect peace and joy. It is also the freedom from all disquiet, and brings a deep sense of contentment and happiness. In natural man is nothing but the working of every kind of evil. Covetousness, envy, pride, and wrath are the four elements of self, inseparably bound together. If we were more aware of what real good( or real evil) could work within us , we would be much more afraid of harboring these serpents of evil within us –even more afraid that being cast into a dungeon of venomous beasts.

  15. Barrier 1 Put Christ first. John the Baptist They came to John and said to him, “ Rabbi, the man who was with you on the other side of the Jordan ----the one you testified about-- look, he is baptizing , and everyone is going to him.” “He must become greater; I must become less.”

  16. Philippians 2:3- Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of others. In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus: Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; rather , he made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to death – even death on a cross.

  17. I John 2:3- We know that we have come to know him if we keep his commands. Whoever says, “ I know him,” but does not do what he commands is a liar, and the truth is not in that person. But if anyone obeys his word, love for God is truly made complete in them. This is how we know we are in him : Whoever claims to live in him must live as Jesus did.

  18. How did Jesus live? “For I have come down from heaven not to do my will but to do the will of him who sent me.” John 6:38 Then I said, ‘Here I am– it is written about me in the scroll—I have come to do your will, my God.’ Other references to the same: John 5:19, 30 John 8:28 John 12:49-50 John 14:10

  19. “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations.. baptizing them in the name of the father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you ; and lo, I am with you , even to the end of the age.” Matthew 28:19-20.

  20. Make Disciples When Jesus walked among humankind, there was a certain simplicity to being a disciple. Primarily it meant to go with him , in an attitude of study , obedience , and imitation. There were no correspondence courses . One knew what to do and what it would cost. Family and friends were deserted for long periods to go with Jesus as he walked from place to place announcing , showing , and explaining the governance of God. Dallas Willard, The Spirit of the Disciplines.

  21. Revelation 3:15-21 I know your deeds , that you are neither hot nor cold; I would that you were hot or cold. So, because you are lukewarm , and neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of My mouth.

  22. Hot or Cold ..These are the words of the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the ruler of God’s creation. I know your deeds , that you are neither cold nor hot . I wish you were either one or the other. Revelation 3: 14 Hot water of Hierapolis or the cold water of Colossae?

  23. What about Hot, What about Cold? Hot water is… offering comfort to a hurting person, soothing words to the grieving, visiting the sick or those in prison. Exhibiting healing warmth and the kindness of Christ. Cold water ….uplifts , encourages, refreshes, energizes, blesses. Offers the right word at the right time in a way that lets people go on and feel renewed.

  24. Waiting is Worship Psalm 62:5 My soul, waits patiently for God alone, my expectation is from Him. Isaiah 64:4 Since ancient times no one has heard , no ear has perceived, no eye has seen any God besides you, who acts on behalf of those who wait for him.

  25. Waiting 1.For provision: “These all wait for YOU, that you may give them their food in due season.” Psalm 104:27. 2. For instruction: Show me your ways; O Lord; teach me your paths. Lead me in your truth and teach me , for you are the God of my salvation ; on you I wait all day. Psalm 25:4-5. 3. For all the saints: Let know one who waits on you be ashamed. Psalm 25:2

  26. Waiting 4. For strength: Wait on the Lord; be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart; wait , I say , on the Lord! Psalm 27:14 5. For a new song: I waited patiently fro the Lord ; and He inclined to me and heard my cry. He has put a new song in my mouth; praise to our God; many will see it and fear, and will trust in the Lord. Psalm 40:1,3

  27. Romans 8:25- 26a But if we hope for what we do not see, with perseverance we wait eagerly for it. And in the same way the Spirit also helps our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we should, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words; and He who searches the heart knows what the mind of the Spirit is , because He intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.

  28. Through the Holy Spirit/Not just through Intellect …they imagine that the Spirit , in teaching them , must reveal the mysteries of the spiritual life first to their intellect, and afterwards in their experience. And God’s way is just the contrary of this . What holds true of all spiritual truth is especially true of abiding in Christ: we must live and experience truth in order to know it. Receive what you do not comprehend, submit to what you cannot understand , accept and expect what to reason appears a mystery, believe what looks impossible, walk in a way that you know not ---such are the first lessons in the school of God. ABIDE IN CHRIST, Andrew Murray

  29. John 5:38-40 And you do not have His word abiding in you, for you do not believe Him whom He sent. You search the Scriptures, because you think that in them you have eternal life; and it is these that bear witness of Me.

  30. Romans 8:25-28 But if we hope for what we do not have, we wait for it patiently. In the same way, the Spirit helps in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercede for us through wordless groans. And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for Gods people in accordance with the will of God. And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.

  31. Emotions Worry is praying to yourself

  32. His eyes Jesus looked at him and loved him. Mark 10:21 When Jesus looked up and saw a great crowd coming toward him, he said to Philip, “Where shall we buy bread for these people to eat?” John 6:5 Jesus looked up and said , “Father, I thank you that you have heard me.” John 11:41 also John 17:1

  33. His hands Then people brought little children to Jesus for him to place his hands on them and pray for them….”let the children come to me”…when he had placed his hands on them, he went on from there. Matthew 19:13-15 And he took the children in his arms, placed his hands on them and blessed them. Mark 10:16 Once more Jesus put his hands on the man’s eyes. Mark 8:25

  34. His hands At sunset, the people brought to Jesus all who had various kinds of sickness, and laying his hands on each one, he healed them. Luke 4:40 When he had led them out to the vicinity of Bethany, he lifted up his hands and blessed them. Luke 24:50

  35. His heart As he approached the town gate, a dead person was being carried out– the only son of his mother, and she was a widow. When the Lord saw her , his heart went out to her and he said, “Don’t cry.” Then he went up and touched the bier they were carrying him on , and the bearers stood still. He said , “ Young man, I say to you , get up!” Luke 7:13. Also Exodus29:29 , 30

  36. His shoulders As our Great High Priest He carried our iniquities. “….my righteous servant will justify many, and he will bear their iniquities.” Isaiah 53:11 “ I offered my back to those who beat me , my cheeks to those who pulled out my beard; I did not hide my face from mocking and spitting.” Isaiah 50:6 See Exodus 28:29,30

  37. Satan wants to break your heart …and tell you lies. Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life. Proverbs 4:23 The thief comes only to steal, kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full. John 10:10.

  38. Matthew 8:16 And when evening had come , they brought to Him many who were demon- possessed; and He cast out the spirits with a word , and healed all who were ill; in order that what was spoken through Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, saying , “He Himself took our infirmities, and carried away our diseases.”

  39. Psalm “Be still and know that I am God”

  40. Matthew 25:40 And the king will answer and say to them, “Truly I say to you , to the extent that you did it to one of these brothers of Mine, even the least of them, you did it to Me.

  41. Summary Page 10-3 The Word of God in our souls Be submitted to the Holy Spirit Live intentionally about crucifying the flesh This includes repentance and forgiveness Continually give God the glory Be a useful vessel

  45. Blessing Definition Blessing is an act of faith that originates in the heart of God. When we bless we are declaring that we believe in the unseen power of the Word of God. As believers, we have been blessed to be a blessing. The miracle of blessing is that the Sovereign Lord gives us the words to bless, the way to bless and the mandate to bless. He provides , motivates , equips and sustains us to be a blessing. This is the mystery and the celebration of faith . We have the privilege of participating in what He in totality has created. He provides , we willingly participate , and as a result we are blessed.

  46. Silver Amulets OLDEST KNOWN FRAGMENTS OF THE BIBLE In 1979 two small rolled pieces of silver were discovered in Jerusalem. When the little scrolls were carefully unrolled researchers found words from the book of Numbers inscribed into the silver, written in characters from an ancient Hebrew script. The scrolls contain the text of the Priestly Benediction ( Numbers 6)!

  47. The dating of the silver amulets Tests carried out in NASA laboratories confirm that these words were written around 600B.C. in the days when Solomon’s Temple still stood on the Jerusalem mountain.

  48. Spur One Another On “ And let us consider how to spur one another on to love and good deeds” Hebrews 10:24
