From Here To There Wk.1 Relationship with God “Where there is no vision, the people perish…” Proverbs 29:18 NKJV “I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were either one or the other! So, because you are lukewarm--neither hot nor cold--I am about to spit you out of my mouth.” Revelation 3:15-16 All of us fall into one of three categories:  Hot – You are growing. “We ought always to thank God for you, brothers, and rightly so, because your faith is growing more and more, and the love every one of you has for each other is increasing.” 2 Thessalonians 1:3  Cold – You do not know God yet. “The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.” 2 Corinthians 4:4  Lukewarm – You are drifting. “We must pay more careful attention, therefore, to what we have heard, so that we do not drift away.” Hebrews 2:1 How to Get There 1. Know God intimately. “You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. I will be found by you,” declares the LORD. Jeremiah 29:13-14 “Come back to your senses as you ought, and stop sinning…”1 Corinthians 15:34 2. Share Christ effectively. “God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting men’s sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation. We are therefore Christ's ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us.” (2 Corinthians 5:19-20) 3. Connect with others regularly. “…You are a member of God’s very own family…and you belong in God’s household with every other Christian.” Ephesians 2:19 LB “Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed.” James 5:16 4. Grow yourself daily. “Therefore let us leave the elementary teachings about Christ and go on to maturity…” Hebrews 6:1 “Apply your heart to instruction and your ears to words of knowledge.” Proverbs 23:12 5. Serve people passionately. “Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God’s grace in its various forms.” 1 Peter 4:10 All scriptures are from the NAS unless otherwise noted
