Pray, then, in this way: 'Our Father who is in heaven,  Hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come,  Your will be done  On earth as it is in heaven...'
MATTHEW 6:9-10 AMP
At church last night this was our text.
The greatness of who God is.
Focussing on His Kingdom purposes...these are the notes I took...
We need to know the big story...
Embracing God's story allows us to let other stories go...wealth accumulation, your truth, self determination, scientific naturalism, consumer based world...
The big story tells us where the world is heading
Our God is BIG and Majestic! This is what allows us to worship.
God's kingdom has come but it's not fully here yet...
This morning what I thought was solid turned to jelly literally beneath my feet & this morning the words of Lauren Daigles song is in my mind..."I will trust in you"
The Big Story God has in hand. In Him I continue to put my faith even when my world shakes...

Genesis 15.8-18.ESV But he said O Lord God , how am I to know that I shall possess it? ...When the sun had gone down and it was dark, behold, a smoking fire pot and a flaming torch passed between these pieces. On that day the Lord made a covenant with Abram... March 15 was the last day we looked at Abram's story...he was questioning God and this is God's response...sacrifices and smoke and fire and a covenant...a promise... Isn't that what we crave for sometimes? God, if only you'd just show me smoke & fire, a burning bush a sign, miracle, healing...then all my questions would disappear...all my doubts would be gone... 2moro we'll see Abram's response but I think God values our faith in spite of our questions and doubts. That we choose Him anyway #faith
Psalm 42.1-11.nlt As the deer longs for streams of water, so I long for you, O God... I thirst for God, the living God. When can I go and stand before him? O God my rock l cry, Why have you forgotten me? Why must I wander around in grief, oppressed by my enemies? Their taunts break my bones. They scoff, Where is this God of yours? Why am I discouraged? Why is my heart so sad? I will put my hope in God! I will praise him again - my Savior and my God! That song "as the deer pants for the water..." seems almost nice, but it's not...it's part of a cry of anguish, of hurt, of despair...of God not giving an answer...yet...through all that...again and again he says I'll put my hope in God! #choose #hope #hopeunshaken
Joseph replied..."Dont you see, you planned evil against me but God used those same plans for my good, as you see all around you right now - life for many people..." Genesis 50:19-20 MSG The view from the drone. The different perspective. "God has been at work in my life despite, in fact within the hatred that you had towards me. Even though I couldn't always see it, I kept trusting Him, even when He was silent, when all hope seemed lost... God was at work... Can you see that now?" #faith #faithinthedark
