God’s Anointing: Crushing Produces the Oil

A Man Called Jon

Revelation: • The church can be our greatest hindrance to God’s calling on our lives. Go with God anyway! God turned out to use that in Jon’s favor, and it ultimately brought more people to Christ. • Our own family members can be our greatest hindrance to God’s calling on our lives, even if they mean well or don’t understand God’s assignment/calling on your life. Go with God anyway! • The modern church is oftentimes religious, deeming that blacks and whites are some sort of a separate distinction of Christianity–culture is doing more harm to the body of Christ than we’d like to admit. • Church-goers masked as followers of Christ can be full of hate, envy, and undealt with strongholds because of lack of deliverance. • When we’re not in the place we are supposed to be, God lets us know.

The Encounter

Revelation: • Like each person Jesus spoke to in the movie, God desires a deep, intimate relationship with each of us. We say and hear that all the time, but do we really understand the depth of what it means? • God speaks wisdom and instruction into our current situations/stage of life, gives us revelation/understanding about past stages, and prepares us for future stages • Pride is what keeps many away from God when offers himself to us ( we think we know better/ego/relying on our own understanding ) • God gives every person the choice to choose Him, and make Him Lord over their lives, not with the promise that life will be easy and smooth, but with the reward knowing that we are running this race for the price of the Celestial city.
