- Not looking back but looking forward
- What in our lives we will pioneer? -- Changing the families and generations to come
- Never lose that looking forward pioneering spirit
- If you lose that raw edge, I wonder what big things God has for you?
- It is not having to do new things but God doing fresh things, and do what we're called to do which is to build His church
- It does not have to stale
- Big things comes out of a pioneering spirit
- Acts 1:8 (Acts of the apostles)
- Acts 10 ("...here i stand at the ends of the earth")
- God does big things with a pioneering spirit
- 1. A pioneer takes terorritory to thought what was previously inhabitable suddenly was reached
- There is big things to be done as we live our lives collectively and individually
- 2. A pioneer reaches the unreachable, and includes the excluded
- Acts 9
- "...the whosoever will, that the Lord may come"
- 3. A pioneer sings a song that is music to the uninitiated, but sounding brass to the establishment
- Standing forth to new ground -- The new thing that God is doing
- Acts 6:8
- Start occupying all streets
- When grace does something new, some people who have been listening to it have blindness and the most difficulty to see
- We don't want to encounter the grace of Jesus and miss out on new things
- Once a pioneer, always a pioneer
- 4. A pioneer that defies the odds, and pioneers again bringing longevity to the season
- Have divine favour and take influence that is beyond imagine
- It can become a long season, especially generationally
- Be faithful where you are
- Don't lose it, be first in love and in generosity
- Just by sowing our lives together in the work of Jesus, we can see His kingdom established
- Matt 20
- If you want to be great, be a servant
- Try to do things on your own, than you perish alone
- Ordinary guy, doing ordinary things that God use in an extraordinary way
- Witnesses means Martyrs
- It is not just a job, it is our life -- We build our family and that in mind, you see generations serving God in His house
- Sacrificial of time and giving in so many ways and by God grace you see the fruit of that in your own homes and careers
- We take the principals we learn at church and apply it to our business
- You want to live your life that the fruit of your life lives long beyond you
- A pioneering spirit never underestimate what God can do
- It is not about ourselves but the opportunities we can create for others
- You want to pastor a church where not only your dreams but the dreams of other people comes trues
- Open doors to people that has not been opened, and reach people that has not been reached with the love of Christ
- Sometimes it is just a gentle kind word in times of harshness that speaks volumes of people
- It never has been like church or your church you go to, but your heart and your passion
- What we are apart of is bigger than the part we play
- God has placed every step strategically in your life
- This is home, this is where I am accepted
- Everyone is on the journey, on the same pioneering path
- Prove yourself faithful in the very ordinary things
- Jesus gives us a new name of importance. You want to be great? You want to be first? Keep filling the need of being first. First in love, First in model excellent, First in generosity. Recognise that he who is the greatest among you, shall be a servant, and that is the new definition of greatness.
" Because you are special* to me, and I love you, I gladly give up other peoples in exchange for you; They are trivial by comparison to your weighty significance. " _Isaiah 43:4* (The Voice)
