I want all that God wants for me.
Living on mission for Christ generates joy.
Luke 10:21-24
Jesus is the author of joy.
If you and I, living on mission for Christ, brings someone to salvation, and that brings such great joy to Him, then that should be enough to us to get up and start harvesting! (Luke 15:7;10)
Some word on joy:
Luke 10:17; John 4:36; 15:11; 17:13
If you're a follower of Christ, you have a privileged position- which comes with responsibilities and it brings joy!
He has revealed mysteries to us: 2 Cor. 4:3-6; Eph. 1:9; Col. 2:6(?) You want to know God's will? You gotta know Christ. He wants to show us things. (Oh hey, 1 Cor. 1:26-31 is pretty awesome.. and 1 Cor. 2:1-5 .. I'm not sure how Pastor Chad Allen had those incorporated with this sermon, but they must've been important, seeing that I have them written down.)
We are UNWORTHY to show the will of God, but that's what God is for. "The more unworthy you feel representing Christ, the more worthy you are."
Psalm 40:8; 1 Peter 1:8
Joy is permanent. You want to be where Jesus is? NEWS FLASH! Jesus is a moving target! So get going! Stop just saying, start doing.
I mean, how badly do you want EVERYTHING He has for you?
