Message Review
God is outside of time; time is inside of God and God is timeless. God is the Beginning and the End, the Alpha and Omega and the Author and Finisher of our faith. God does not have a yesterday and He does not have a past. God is not learning because there is nothing He doesn’t know. God does not forget things, so He does not have to recall anything. When Moses spoke to God and asked “Who shall I tell Pharaoh who sent me? God said, “tell him I AM sent you.” Everything God created He made by His word. We use words to communicate but God wanted us to use them to create. We never heard of work until sin. Ground was never meant to respond to our hands but by our words. Nothing will happen until we speak it out, when it stays inside of you it is only a wish. You must be careful who you share your dreams to because some people will be dream killers”. In the bible, it says, “we believe, therefore we speak”. If you believe a thing, you must speak it out. We may be broke, but we speak we are blessed. We may be depressed, but we speak joy, and we will find it. We must open our mouth and speak if anything is going to happen in our lives. Speak it!
Let’s dig in a little more…….
Let’s Talk About It!
Read Romans 10:17, Matthew 4:4
Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the rhema of God. Rhema speaks a specific word to you. You can look in the word and the Holy Spirit will highlight a scripture to you as a rhema word. It could be the very answer you were searching for. This is why it’s so important to have a real relationship with your bible so when you need help you can go to the bible and receive the help you need. Do you make reading your bible (daily bread) a priority? Is this your first “go to” in your time of need? Share a time you received a rhema word from the bible and how it blessed you or changed your circumstances.
Read Isaiah 55:11-13, Ephesians 1:4
You were created out of the word (logos) and that means that your life is a rhema. There is something only your life can speak. There is something only you can do here on earth. When God sent you into the earth, you are a rhema out of the logos on assignment from God and He watches over His word so it will not return void. Do you realize the importance of your God given assignment? Has this series expanded your faith so far that God created you with purpose and you have assignments (God given work) to do here on earth?
Prayer Focus and Requests
Ask your members if they have any prayer requests or praise reports. Encourage one another to read the word of God and share the rhema word that God has encouraged you with.
