Called To Greatness - Secrets 4 and 5

#4 Secret

Learning To Do What Makes God Happy

A new believers relationship with God is no different than any other love relationship. You want to do things that make that person happy, and you want to stop doing things that make that person sad.

Jesus put it this way, 'If you love me, you will obey what I command.” (John 14:15) One of the secrets of a great relationship is to begin changing things in your life based on what pleases or displeases the one who loves you most.

As the new born
-reads God's word
talks to Him as a friend
and spends time with His friends
They will start to understand and know what pleases God
Then they will also begin to understand what it means to become a new creation in Christ. In (2 Cor. 5:17) God tells us this.

Exercise – Finish this sentence- One thing I think Jesus would like to change in me is .................?

Then encourage them to talk to God each morning and turn that part of their life over to Him, and let Him have control of it.

Get them to bring the card to your next meeting for discussion purposes.




Secret #5

Talk About Him

Share your testimony of what He (Jesus) has done for you with someone else every day for the next week. Tell them what has happened in your life. Sharing this will make you stronger in your walk with Him. You will never forget what Jesus done for you if you share it with someone often.

Pray asking God to open a natural opportunity for this action to take place. Praying that prayer every day expecting God to answer. Then discuss the results the next time you meet.
