EP 38-Cultivating an Abundant Life
In Episode 38- Danielle Kazarian is speaking live to a group of ladies at one of Higher Vision Valencia's circles-Titus.
Do you feel inadaquate or ill-equipped for the task at hand?
Do you carry all the burdens of your loved-ones?
Are you exhausted?
Are you consumed by chaos?
How do you see yourself?
What do you call yourself?
Danielle Kazarian encourages women that God's design in the beginning to "multiply" is the same as Jesus' call "to make disciples" (Gen 1:28, Matthew 28:19-20). She leads us through how to teach, train, and equip others in the Lord by answering the question: what is the best way to cultivate healthy soil in our lives?
Through Danielle's life-long journey of killing every plant she tried to keep alive, God has shown her the parallel of plants to a healthy Christian life. You will discover that your identity-how you see yourself-will determine if you are building your life on a solid foundation.
Scripture:
Colossians 2:6,7
"Therefore, as you received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in him, rooted and built up in him and established in the faith, just as you were taught, abounding in thanksgiving."
Matthew 7:24
“Anyone who hears these words of Mine and acts on them, may be compared to a wise man who built his house on the rock. "
Proverbs 14:1 NASB
"A wise woman builds her house, but the foolish tears it down with her own hands. "
Colossians 3:23
"In everything you do, work at it with all your heart..."
Ephesians 2:10

Ephesians 4:1-3
"walk worthy of the calling you have received"
Application of 1 Corinthians 3:6-8
v 6 While we must honor the calling God has put on our lives to faithfully pour in and cultivate our soil and the grounds of those He’s entrusted to us, we are not responsible for the outcome.
v 7-8 We can neither take credit for their successes, nor walk in shame and guilt of our children’s sin. If we put our trust in Jesus and follow His lead, we must also trust our children are His children before they are ours.
v9-10 "For we are God’s fellow workers; you are God’s field, God’s building.According to the grace of God which was given to me, like a wise master builder I laid a foundation, and another is building on it. But each man must be careful how he builds on it. For no man can lay a foundation other than the one which is laid, which is Jesus Christ.”
James 1:7
"Every good and perfect gift is from our Heavenly Father."
What is your real-self vs false-self?
What are gifts from God?
Romans 12:2, Romans 12:6-8, Ephesians 4:11, 1 Corinthians 12:8-10, and 1 Peter 4:8-10
