Three Things to Evaluate
1. How Do I see God?
When I say the word God what are your first thoughts. Tell me your first thoughts and I can tell you about your future!
“What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us.”― A.W. Tozer
He is MOST HIGH
High- el-yon-elevation, lofty, the Supreme
ALMIGHTY GOD
Almighty- (el Shaddai) all ruling as absolute and universal, sovereign
WHAT ARE SOME THINGS I THINK GOD WOULD WANT ME TO KNOW ABOUT
HIM?
a. God is for Me!
Romans 8:31- “What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? “
b. Nothing can separate Me from His Love!
Romans 8:38,39- “For I am persuaded that neither death, nor life, nor angels nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
c. He will never leave me or forsake me!
Joshua 1:5- “No man shall be able to stand before you all the days of your life; as I was with Moses, so I will be with you. I will not leave you or forsake you.”
d. Nothing is impossible with God!
Luke 1:37- “For with God nothing will be impossible.”
Jeremiah 32:17- “Ah, Lord God! Behold, You have made the heavens and the earth by Your great power and outstretched arm. There is nothing too hard for you.”
Do you think Jeremiah was trying to remind God of this? NO! He was saying, “God this is how I see you!”
2. How Do You See You?
Do you see you the way God sees you?
- I’m forgiven?
Psalm 103:3- “He forgives all my sins…”
Psalm 103:12- “He has removed our sins as far from us as the east is from the west.”
DO YOU SEE YOU AS FORGIVEN?
b. I’m blessed
Ephesians 1:3- “All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ.”
DO YOU SEE YOU BLESSED?
c. I’m victorious?
1Corinthians 15:57-58- “But thank God! He gives us victory over sin and death through our Lord Jesus Christ. So, my dear brothers and sisters, be strong and immovable. Always work enthusiastically for the Lord, for you know that nothing you do for the Lord is ever useless.”
DO YOU SEE YOU VICTORIOUS?
d. I’m a child of God
Romans 8:15-16- So you have not received a spirit that makes you fearful slaves. Instead, you received God’s Spirit when he adopted you as his own children. Now we call him, “Abba, Father.” For his Spirit joins with our spirit to affirm that we are God’s children.”
I am a forgiven, blessed, victorious child of God!
My God is for me and nothing can separate me from his love and he will never leave me or forsake me and nothing is impossible with Him!
3. How Do You See Your Giants?
How you see your giants is determined by how you see God and how you see You!
If you see God the way we’ve talked about and you see you the way we’ve talked about, then you will see your giants as being removed!
That’s what David told Goliath, YOUR DEAD, I’m about to REMOVE YOU!
If you see your giants as being permanent and never moving our of your way then there’s something out of order about the way you see God and the way you see you!
Your faith has been paralyzed by fear and a wrong perspective!
CONCLUSION:
- How do you see God?
- How do you see you?
- How do you see your giants?
Ephesians 3:20- “Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us.”
