To change the world, we must change the church. This starts with every Christian deciding to transform personally, beginning with our personal relationship with God.
Many Christians become deceived because our entire experience is lived within the church. God wants us to expand our world to see he has bigger things in store.
God wants us to evaluate ourselves by how deep and strong our faith is. He doesn’t evaluate our spiritual condition by looking at how we appear on the surface. The depth of our faith determines how much of a difference we can make in the lives of those around us.
Often, the challenge that I face is that I get inspired to want to make a difference, but don’t realize that I first must allow God to change me.
There is no doubt that this world is changing, but it is up to each of us to decide and influence how it changes.
God wants us to have friends we can be completely ourselves with, but this can only happen if we let go of control.
When we experience testing, pain and failure in our lives, it is easy to give into fear and doubt. “Flipping the Switch” is about learning to let God use our personal passion, ambition, dreams, pain, and setbacks for his greater purpose of saving lives.
We have an important choice to make every day, and that choice is whether we will choose God, or choose humanism and self-reliance to help us handle the demands and responsibilities of life.
The key to turning our emotion into action is trusting God.
For our purposes, “Destiny” is the ultimate goal of your life, while “Purpose” is the path you will take and things you will do to get there.
When Jesus spoke, he described a vision. This vision was of a world changed by his kingdom, and those who listened were transfixed.
