Test of Time
We don't need to defend ourselves, because we have a defender
The God who raises the dead, is my God, and He will rescue me today, and He will rescue me in the future
Luke 15:12-13; Acts 6:1-7
If in your blessing you depart from God like prodigal son, your blessing will not stand test of time
Prodigal son wasted it with compromise
Older son never touched it, like servant who dug his gift
Man with 5 talents multiplied it
What you receive from God is seed not fruit, it has potential for multiplication and abuse
We need God in our healing as much as in our sickness
We need God in our blessing as much as in our lack
We need God in our singleness as much as in our marriage
We need God in our career as much as in our unemployment
We need God in our freedom as much as in our addiction
We need God in our influence as much as in our being not known
If in blessing you depart from God, sin will be impossible to resist
If in blessing you depart from God, your blessing will not stand test of time
If in blessing you depart from God, your blessing will exit as fast as it entered
If in blessing you depart from God, your blessing will never be multiplied
Apostles, had nothing but closest to God, blessing came....busyness....slowly less time for prayer, less passion, they said WE NEED GOD AFTER PENTECOST AS BEFORE PENTECOST....things continued to multiply
TB Joshua in blessing, prosperity, miracles, criticism, it did not drew him away from God into politics or into materialism...more time for prayer....presidents don't determine his course....miracles multiply....influence grows
Martin Luther....I'm so busy, I have to pray today 3 hours...
Jim Baker....great ministry....heart departs from Lord, sin is hard to resist....sin brings destruction.....
Blessing is an invitation to seek God the more, love Him the more
Blessing raises a bar for higher and deeper devotion to God
When branches grow and roots shrink, tree will be too heavy, it will fall
If Gods presence does not excite you, pigs will be our portion
If bread is tasteless, pigs food will be your lot
