If you missed Sunday you can watch the message at lakepointefamily in the media section or at lifestream. Here are the message notes from Pastor Gregs message: #GreatExpectations2015 “self” “When the pain of staying the same exceeds the pain of doing things differently-- you will change” -pg HOW DO WE KNOW IF OUR #GreatExpectations ARE OF GOD? 1. Our #GreatExpectations Will Ultimately Bring Glory to God. “For everything comes from him and exists by his power and is intended for his glory. All glory to him forever! Amen” (Romans 11:36) God made everything for His glory. So a God-given #GreatExpectations2015 will bring Him glory in the end. 2. Our #GreatExpectations Will Benefit Others. “Learn to do good. Seek justice. Help the oppressed. Defend the cause of orphans. Fight for the rights of widows” (Isaiah 1:17) 3. Our #GreatExpectations2015 Will Seem Bigger Than What You Can Handle On Your Own. “Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think” (Ephesians 3:20) #GreatExpectations2015 PROMISES YOU CAN BANK ON FROM GOD FOR 2015: 1. God Promise’s to never leave you! “I WILL BE WITH YOU!” -Jesus …And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” Matthew 28:20b “If you love me, keep my commands. And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another advocate to help you and be with you forever— the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be in you. John 14:15-17 2. God Promise’s to not give up on you! “I’ll SHOW YOU THE WAY & I WILL GUIDE YOU!” When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” John 8:12 For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 8:38-39 3. God Promise’s to forgive you! “Therefore, my friends, I want you to know that through Jesus the forgiveness of sins is proclaimed to you. Acts 13:38 In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s grace that he lavished on us. With all wisdom and understanding, Ephesians 1:7 WHAT IF OUR GREAT EXPECTATIONS WERE TO EXTEND THESE PROMISES OF GOD TO OTHERS IN OUR LIFE? SOCIAL MEDIA QUOTE OF THE DAY #GreatExpectations2015 from God are not trivial. They are vital. They are not insignificant . But powerful for our life in Jesus. EXPECTATION QUESTIONS What expectations do you have for 2015? What expectations do you have specifically for yourself in 2015? Where does God fit in to your expectations?
