in our life we should have a flow of of
Joy a flow of
Peace a flow of the fruit of the spirit
coming out of us a flow of goodness
flowing out of us Mercy we should have a
flow of good things in our life and when
the right things are bubbling up in us
and flowing out of us we not
only enjoy our lives but we’re able to
be a blessing to other people so guess I
want to ask you today what is Flowing
out of
you I’ll ask myself what is Flowing out
of you Joyce well sometimes good stuff
and some days we just get a little spurt
and I’d like to fix that
amen What flows out of you is more
important than what comes to
you we get way too concerned about what
we’re getting in Life or what we’re not
getting or not having a bad circumstance
and God wants us to to understand that
it’s what’s in us that is much more
important than what’s coming to us
because if we’ve got the right thing in
us and we get rid of the hindrances in
our life then the right thing will flow
through us and it won’t only be a
blessing to us but it will be a blessing
to other people so is a good flow being
hindered in your life is what’s coming
out of us dead or is it living does it
Minister life does it Minister death is
there flow at all do you feel like you
can’t hear from God you feel like you
can’t sense God’s presence there’s no
joy there’s no peace nothing seems to be
working everything is a struggle some of
you know exactly what I’m talking about
like I don’t understand I go to church
and but something’s just not right
something’s just not right well
sometimes we’ve got some things clogging
up our
pipes and you know when you’re a
Believer but you’re not living the life
you should live live it’s very
frustrating because before you received
Christ and got into the word you could
sin all day long it didn’t bother you
that much but once you receive Christ
and you start learning better now if you
continue in that kind of a lifestyle you
will be miserable can I just say this
and I want you to remember this there’s
nothing more miserable than a guilty
conscience a lot of people that have a
hard time sleeping not everybody
obviously but a lot of times when you
have a hard time sleeping there’s
something on your conscience that’s
bothering you something that you have
not attended to you know we’re very good
at just glossing over things and finding
someplace to kind of stick it in a back
room in our heart somewhere and just
pretending like it doesn’t exist and I
had a situation two or three years ago
that I well remember where I just wasn’t
sleeping good which normally wasn’t the
case for me and I tossed and turned and
kept waking up and didn’t know what was
going on finally about 5:00 in the
morning I said to God I wish I would
have done it much sooner but I said what
is wrong
wrong what is wrong you know if you ask
God what’s wrong and you really want to
hear the truth he’ll tell you but you
may not like everything that he says we
always want our problems to be something
somebody else is doing but in that
instance
quickly God brought to my heart
something that I had said a way that I
had
behaved that day before I went to bed
towards somebody else and I just kind of
glossed over it made an excuse and
didn’t take care of it see we should be
smart enough to know that if we hurt
somebody’s feelings we should say I’m
sorry if we act rude we should say I’m
sorry not behave badly and then say well
I had a rough day at work you know we
make too many excuses for bad behavior
and what we need to do is let God deal
with us about these things and say no
God I don’t want to be like that and I
need you to help me nothing is worse
than having a guilty conscience
John
4:14 Jesus is talking with we call her
the woman at the
well and he says whoever takes a drink
of the water that I will give him shall
never know never be thirsty anymore but
the water that I give him shall become a
spring of water welling up flowing
bubbling continually with him unto
eternal life I want you just try to get
a picture of that what how good is life
when we’ve got we just feel like life is
bubbling us up in us and there’s joy
just bubbling up in us and you know I I
live too many years where I’d get up in
the morning couldn’t wait to go to bed
and then go to bed at night and couldn’t
wait to get up you know I wasn’t ever
really satisfied with anything and man
it became so important to me when I
finally got a hold of John 10:10 and
realized that Jesus didn’t just die for
me so I could someday in the sweep by
and by go to heaven but he died so we
could have and enjoy our life life and
have it in abundance to the full until
it overflows and enjoying life does not
mean that I’m going to get everything I
want or that I’m going to live on
vacation I’m going to have the perfect
people in my life enjoying life means
that there’s a place in Christ that we
can come to a place of spiritual
maturity where although we may not like
our circumstances nobody likes difficult
circumstances we still can find a place
where we can be happy and joy ful no
matter what is going on in our
life and isn’t that really what we want
Paul talked about it when he
said my determined
purpose is to know him and the power of
his resurrection that lifts me out from
among the dead even while I’m in the
body that’s exactly what we’re talking
about here today he said there’s a place
that we can come to In Christ where with
all the deadness around us and all the
trouble and all the bad circumstances
and The Grouchy people and the high
finances and all the things that are
going on where in him we can be lifted
above that in a resurrection life you
know the Bible says in Isaiah 40 that
when we wait on God we will Mount up
with wings like eag eagles who Mount up
close to the Sun Well if you’ve never
really looked any further than just
reading that scripture you may not
really understand the total beauty of it
but an eagle has an ability to fly so
high they’re not afraid of the storms of
life they actually have tunnel vision
and they can see miles and miles away
when a storm is coming and instead of
running from it or having a a bad
attitude or a fearful attitude they
actually wait for it to come and they
let the the draft of the storm when it
hits them it pops them up above the
storms and they can fly around in
Freedom and just look down at what’s
happening
well see that’s the way that we should
be as Believers we don’t have to run
from
problems amen and you know why you have
to have enough experience with God and
it takes some time to get to this point
but honestly and
truly none of us like
trouble but if you love God and you want
what he wants in your life and you don’t
give up there’s nothing absolutely
nothing that comes your way that God
will not be able to take it and somehow
or another work it out for your benefit
in your life the thing may not be good
but God is
good that doesn’t mean that God brought
your trouble but he’ll use your trouble
to make you a stronger believer and to
be a better witness to somebody
else how many of you are going through
some things right
now okay well see we have stuff too you
know I had in the last three years I’ve
had both of my hips replaced kind of
nice now you can get replacement parts
you know and
uh that’s cool so you know you go
through a healing process and blah blah
blah blah blah well I’ve been having a
little issue with this one and so they
don’t think it’s my hip they think now
it could be something with my back I’ve
been having trouble with Sciatic Nerve
this morning getting ready to come over
here I had this pain going down the back
of my leg well you know my life’s not
perfect either but I have to apply the
same principles to my life that I
encourage you to apply to your
you don’t you know you don’t get a pass
from problems just because you’re
preaching the word matter of fact you
get attacked
more then if you weren’t doing anything
but you know what we do have authority
over the enemy and although he comes
against is one way he’ll flee before us
seven
[Applause]
days Romans 8 right in the midst of all
of these things we are more more than
conquerors you know what it means to be
more than a conqueror I believe it means
that before your problem starts you
already know that whatever comes your
way you will ultimately have the
victory
amen
okay so I want to ask again what’s
flowing out of you now interesting
thing the Philistines who are
the enemies of the children of
God
they had a way of doing Warfare that
also the Israelites did Warfare the same
way back in those days one of the ways
that you defeated your enemies was
to throw dirt down their
well see you already know where this is
going don’t
you they would throw Earth or dirt down
their Wells and Stones Pebbles and
Stones until they got it stopped up to
where there was no water flowing out of
the
well another thing they did is they
would throw stones all over their
property so nothing would grow well when
I saw this scripture years
ago I taught this message once I don’t
know why I’ve never taught it again
because I think it’s a great example
but Genesis
26:15 now all the wells which his
father’s servant had dug in the days of
Abraham
his father the his father the
Philistines had closed and
filled with Earth so let’s just say that
Earth represents the world in all of its
ways well if there’s anything that the
enemy wants to do he wants to fill us
our inner life with all the ways of the
world so even though we get up and go to
church two or three times a week and we
read our Bibles and we may give a little
bit in the offering there’s still not
much difference between us and the most
of the people out there because the
enemy is constantly trying to fill us
with the ways of the world does anybody
seem to have any Temptation these days
about having to really stand steadfast
and not get sucked into the system out
there and you know many times even as a
Believer if you’re going to really take
a firm stand against ungodliness and
against sin you may have to be willing
to stand alone a great deal of the time
