Episode 45 is all about why life is not about us. At the end of the day it is all about Jesus, how we cling to Him, and how represent Him to others. That not everything God shares with us needs to be immediately shared on a platform or with another person, but tucked in our hearts. How we have to spend time within Him before we can properly handle anything that comes our way in this world.
What Happens When He's Sanctifying Us
- Phillipians 2:12 Therefore, my dear friends, as you have always obeyed—not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence—continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling for it is God who works in you to will and to act according to his good purpose.
- Chiseling
- Molding
- Removing
- Giving fresh perspective
Why We Need To Ponder His Word
- There are certain things God wants to teach you before you share them. Example: I wanted to do an episode on the 3 words He gave me a few weeks back. I felt Him nudging my heart that He is still teaching me things through this, He is not calling me to share.
- He needs to heal things in your heart. Example: There are seasons of brokenness where God is using that time to heal us and steward us through His word.
- We're all in a process of learning. If we're breathing God is working in and through you, there may be something He's trying to give you clarity on.
Why It's All About Him
- And he said to me, "It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. To the thirsty I will give from the spring of the water of life without payment. Revelation 21:6
- God calls us in relationship with Him because of His deep love for us, apart from Him we have nothing to offer this world.
- Everything in life is to give God glory. We all have countless opportunities to give God the glory.
- He is the Creator, the Author, the Perfecter, the Healer. He is omniscient, He is omnipresent. He is this great I AM. We are His creation and He thought about you and me. His son is our gift to eternal life with Him.
- When it's all about us, its ridden with pride and sin.
