Enlarge Our Territory- Breaking the Numbers Barrier: Part 2
Enlargement is a blessing from God
4. The “Gag Factor” of Enlargement
Matt. 9:17 “Nor do they put new wine into old wineskins, or else the wineskins break, the wine is spilled, and the wineskins are ruined. But they put new wine into new wineskins, and both are preserved.”
● We must respond in Faith, not in Fear. Don’t overthink “how” growth will happen, just receive it.
● Impartation bypasses the mind, and gets into your spirit
● Learn to love change and correction. Don’t allow your body language to speak fear, unbelief, or weakness
5. Birthing in Prayer
Gal. 4:19 “My little children, for whom I labor in birth again until Christ is formed in you”
● To grow your small group, you’re going to have to spend time in prayer
● Elijah was birthing the rain; he prayed until the rain showed up-separated time with God
● Faith without works is dead
Ps. 127:1 “Unless the Lord builds the house, They labor in vain who build it;”
● We don’t work in the flesh, we work in Faith and in the Spirit
1 Cor. 15:10 “But by the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace toward me was not in vain; but I labored more abundantly than they all, yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.”
