WHY ARE YOU HERE?
God did not create junks, neither did He create clones. What are we created for?
1. We Were Created To Increase
Genesis 1:26-28, NIV – (26) Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.” (27) So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. (28) God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and over every living creature that moves on the ground.”
God created us to increase not just in physical sense as giving birth to children but He wants us to be productive in every area of our lives. At the job place He wants us to bring increase. He wants our family to be the best family anyone would ever want. God wants the best for us. When we settle for less we are not walking in line with His purpose
We were created To rule (or have dominion); to be fruitful in all we do; to increase; to fill the earth (to expand our territories); to subdue the earth (and cause it to come into alignment with God’s purposes).
As Christians, often we are set free in our spirit, but in our thinking we are still imprisoned to the lie of containment. We have become addicted to breakthrough. We start to live our lives from breakthrough to breakthrough to breakthrough, and we become addicted to the breakthroughs ? But most of us don’t need another break-through – we need a break-out
The break-out starts with breaking out of the lie that we were created to live in containment
HOW TO BREAK OUT
1. Stop Believing The Lie
2 Samuel 5:17-20, NIV – (17) When the Philistines heard that David had been anointed king over Israel, they went up in full force to search for him, but David heard about it and went down to the stronghold. (18) Now the Philistines had come and spread out in the Valley of Rephaim;
(9) so David inquired of the LORD, “Shall I go and attack the Philistines? Will you hand them over to me?” The LORD answered him, “Go [up], for I will surely hand the Philistines over to you.” (20) So David went to Baal Perazim, and there he defeated them. He said, “As waters break out, the LORD has broken out against my enemies before me.” So that place was called Baal Perazim.
The first thing the devil brings to us a lie. He wants us to walk without knowing the truth of what God says about us. For us to break the lie we have to know the truth. Jesus said He is the way, the Truth and the lie. To walk in truth we have to have a personal relationship with God.
2. We Have To Rise Up!
You will never break out, by just doing the same thing you are doing now. Doing the same thing you used to do, is what keeps you in containment. Change is the key to break out.
2 Samuel 5:19-24, NIV – (19) so David inquired of the LORD, “Shall I go and attack the Philistines? Will you hand them over to me?” The LORD answered him, “Go, for I will surely hand the Philistines over to you.”
(22) Once more the Philistines came up and spread out in the Valley of Rephaim; (23) so David inquired of the LORD, and he answered, “Do not go straight up, but circle around behind them and attack them in front of the balsam trees.
(24) As soon as you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the balsam trees, move quickly, because that will mean the LORD has gone out in front of you to strike the Philistine army.”
Every new victory requires a new revelation
3. Change Your Thinking – Renew Your Mind
Romans 12:2, NIV – (2) Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.
The renewed mind things of the Kingdom. In the Kingdom of God there is peace, there is abundance. There is no lack. A renewed mind thinks of the things above and not of the things below. For us to become world changes our mind has to be renewed and this can only be done by reading and believing what the Bibles says about us.
4. Change Your Feeling – Speak Faith Not Feeling
2 Corinthians 4:13, NIV – (13) It is written: “I believed; therefore I have spoken.” With that same spirit of faith we also believe and therefore speak. You will never change how you feel, until you change how you think, because every feeling starts with a thought ? But once you change your thinking, then you start declaring your new thoughts. You speak out of faith, not feeling, and then your feelings start to change
c) Change Your Actions – Choose To Do Things Differently
1 Peter 4:3,7 NIV – (3) For you have spent enough time in the past doing what pagans choose to do … (7) Therefore be clear minded and self-controlled … Once you think and feel differently, then you must practice self-discipline, and make daily choices to do things differently.
With this in mind we would be walking in the great treasure and pleasure of the God. Remember we were born to rule
