Get Your Mind Right 2 of 4

Get Your Mind Right 2 of 4

Objective: With improvement in mind, we will use Acts 16 as a guide for discipleship development, to lose our restrictive view in favor of God’s unrestricted power for progress.

‌Dealing With God’s No

Introduction: When mortal control meets divine sovereignty, there will either be humble submission or hard headed rebellion.

Reference Ephesians 3:20

-No doesn’t require any explanation (verse 6-8)

-No doesn’t mean cancelled, its a call (verse 9)

-No turns darkness into direction (verse 9)

-No turns potential into proclamation (verse 10)

Punchline: God’s no reveals our spiritual maturity, with the aim of toddler-like tantrums not hindering the progress of the grown-up work of the gospel.

Conclusion: No is hard to hear, but it’s helpful for who we are to become and for who will be made better because we committed to getting our minds right!
