IMPOSSIBLE

Today was the final weekend of our 'At The Movies' series, utilizing the movie 'Mission Impossible 4' with Tom Cruise.


I am fully convinced that no matter who you are, you have a gigantic mission to fulfill in this world.  It has your name on it.  But you can only fulfill that mission with the power of God operating in your life.
God’s power is so superior.  Why don’t we desperately seek it?  Because the great promise of God in the Bible is that you can go to Him and say: ‘God, I know You’re busy running the universe and all, but ... would You just come down and live in me and walk with me and show a little of your power thru me?’  

And the irony is that the great God of the universe will.  He’ll place His power inside you so you might have all you need in order to accomplish His purposes in this world.  
But He doesn’t just want to do something in us - or for us - or through us - He wants to do something with us.  And He won’t do something with us until He does something in us.  And He has to do something in us before we can do something with Him.  Our problem is we haven’t let God do anything in us and therefore we are impotent to do anything with Him.
'Why would we ever settle for "church" according to our own resources?'

My prayer is that KFA would be characterized by a sense of desperation for the power of God.  Why would we ever settle for Christianity according to our own abilities or settle for ‘church’ according to our own resources?  Why would we ever do that? 
And be blessed.
