Week #2 Continued.. Nature & Character of God

Continued..

Week Two Day Two-Five.

A brief overview of the rest of the week with David Gava.

• Nature is who God is that we cannot be, Character of God is who we can be.
• God is uncreated, Eternal, Everlasting, without beginning or end.

Before the mountains were born, before you gave birth to the earth and the world, from beginning to end, you are God.

Psalms Ninety v Two

I am the first and the last; there is no other God.

Isaiah Forty Four v Six

For through him God created everything in the heavenly realms and on earth. He made the things we can see and the things we can't see - such as thrones, kingdoms, rulers, and authorities in the unseen world. Everything was created through him and for him.

Colossians One v Sixteen

• When you don't have a revelation on the Nature and Character of God you have unbelief.
• God has never failed you! if God has never failed us, why do we struggle to trust him? If God has never failed us, why do we think he will? Sometimes we think God has failed us, but he hasn't and never will. 
• Christ didn't die for a denomination, he died for a person. He died for you!

What do you do, when you don't know what to do?

- Ask God

• If you have a plan B & C that's not trusting the Lord, that's unbelief.
• Blessed are the flexible, for they will not break.

Who is God that we cannot be?

Our God is Infinite, Omnipresent, Omniscient, Omnipotent 

Who God is that we are..

Our God is Personal, Intellect, Emotional, Volition 

Who God is that we are to become..

Our God is Loving, Holy, Wise, Faithful, Just, Merciful, Gracious, Good, Kind, Forgiving

What God does with who he is..

God is our Father, our King, our Lord, our Saviour, our Counsellor. But most of all, he is our Friend. 

Perfect Love casts out all fear! Where there is love there is no fear. When it is perfect you cannot add or subtract anything to it. Fear is one thing that finders our relationship with God.

• Your theology should not change the character of God. If it does, you need to change your theology.
• Without God we cannot. Without us God will not.
• The way you see yourself is so different to the way God sees you. When you look in the mirror, are you happy with what you see?
• If you want God to be true in your life you must STOP listening to all the other voices. If you want to fulfil Gods plan for your life all you need is trust.
• God wants to heal you so you can go out and bring healing and restoration in other peoples lives. Let self die and let Christ be exalted in your life.
• God needs to enlarge our container so we can contain more of him. But we must learn more and have the passion to want to full the container up. 
• Your not meant to stay where you are! God has so much more in store for you. All you need to do is let him move and trust him.
• It doesn't matter what  has happened in your past, we have a big God who conquers all. No past is too big for him.

On the Friday, our last day with David we changed things up a bit. Started the day with David speaking then went into a time of worship where David came around everyone to pray for each person. I got pulled up the front where David asked me, "Are you ready, are you ready to give up everything for the plan God has for you?" He then began to prophesy over me and speak into my life. I felt such an overwhelming sense of the presence of God! Gets me so excited for what's going to happen next!

Every second weekend we have the Twenty Four hour burn in the prayer room, where we have to spend eight hours there each within the twenty four hours. The prayer room is such a powerful place, every week seeing miracle after miracle happening. My friend Sarah and I had the wonderful privilege to pray for another New Zealand friend of ours where we saw breakthrough in her life. God is good! All the glory and Honor goes to him.
