Good news—God can still use you!

Usually-- He uses Ordinary People!

This message series is for those that believe there’s more. You believe that the Lord will use you for something that will outlast you.

Warning; —When God uses you—it Always comes with a cost.

1. You’ll Pay a price greater than you can imagine:
Heartache—Failure—Loneliness—Doubt—Discouragement.

2. You may stand alone—
a. People won’t understand.
b. Criticized—Misunderstood—Laughed at. Told it can’t be done!

3. You may need to make significant changes in your life and lifestyle.

Be edge-wise; careful not to be so earthly-minded we’re no heavenly good and not so heavenly-minded we’re no earthly good

What do you do when you see or hear about something that breaks your heart and you know there is a good work to be done and maybe, just maybe, you’re supposed to be part of that work?

When you see something that deeply disturbs you. And that issue just won’t go away.

1st thing is to do what Nehemiah did.

1. You sit down and let whatever it is break your heart.
2. Let it move you, Sit down and cry. Tears?

If it’s big enough to cry about, it’s big enough to pray about. Craig Groschel

a. 2nd thing is Kneel down and pray

i. God why do I feel this way?
ii. What are you up to in this situation?
iii. How do you want me to adjust my life to align with your will?

Once you’ve prayed and watched and waited, then you stand up and act.

1:11

a. Doing great things for God doesn’t necessarily mean big numbers!
b. Don’t have a burden from the Lord? Ask Him.
c. Maybe you need a refresher in something He has already spoken.
i. Maybe you need to stand up and act.
d. He is our source. He is the one that moves our heart. It’s all for His name and His glory!
