Resurrection Life Church

There are a lot of people giving out advice on how to live.  Podcast, videos, books, social media post and a host of other ways to communicating to people.  However, the apostle James had a lot to say about living and how we are to apply the wisdom that we gain from our relationship with God.  This week in part two Pastor Allen deals with the awe of God and the beginning of wisdom is the Fear of the Lord.

God did not create man to live alone.  We've all heard the point of Adam and Eve.  However, God also meant other people.  We need each other.  We were created to be together.  No man is an island.  As cliche' as it is it is nonetheless true.  Last week Pastor Pat Murray did an amazing job of talking about partnership.  This week Pastor Allen takes it a step further about the power in those relationships and how God uses them to empower us as His Church and we bring glory and honor to Him.

Unless God builds it, it will not last.  Yes, mankind has build structures that have lasted centuries but we are talking about a life.  Our hope and trust can't be in our own ability to sustain ourselves.  We can't do it without God.  How do we allow God to do the work in our life that will sustain us and out last us?  First and foremost we must pray.  Prayer is not a command but a privilege that we get when we submit ourselves to Jesus and make Him Lord of our life.  And second is fasting.  Fasting is not a welcomed activity in the American Church because it goes against all that our culture teaches.  Indulge, indulge, indulge.  God is telling us to fast and restrain ourselves for a period of time so that we can get direction from the divine contractor on our part in building a life that last and one that bring honor to Him.

God is not one that you can come into His presence and leave unchanged.  You will be changed one way or another.  Either you will run to Him or run from Him.  Your experience with Him can draw you closer to Him as you seek more of Him.  In order to truly experience God for who He really is and to have more than a Sunday morning experience.  You must yearn, long for, desire, and hunger for Him and His presence.  Not to slake your spiritual lust but to commune with Him, to be intimate with Him because He has transformed you and you can't help yourself but to seek Him.

The very first Christmas was just like any other simple night in the middle east, with the exception that Jesus, God's son was born into the world.  It wasn't until centuries later that we would start to celebrate it as Christmas.  However, that very first "Christmas" wasn't simple at all.  It was full of supernatural events.  Here on the earth and in the spiritual or supernatural world also.  Mary's pregnancy, Jesus' birth, the angels and shepherds, the Majai, the provisions for their trips to Bethlehem and more were all supernatural events.  This night would be the beginning of where the divine would intersect with mankind once again leading to an event that would not only change the world but the supernatural world as well.
