Heaven on Earth #1: Experiencing God in the 9-5

HEAVEN ON EARTH

#1 - Experiencing God in the 9-5
Pastor Aaron Sutherland  

Series scripture
Ephesians 3:17 "I ask that Christ will live in your hearts through faith. As a result of having strong roots in love..."

I. RECOGNIZE THAT YOU ARE CALLED TO LIVE ON MISSION
LUKE 10:1-2 (CEB) "After these things, the Lord commissioned seventy-two others and sent them on ahead in pairs to every city and place he was about to go.  He said to them, 'The harvest is bigger than you can imagine, but there are few workers. Therefore, plead with the Lord of the harvest to send out workers for his harvest.'"

II. RECOGNIZE THAT YOU ARE CALLED TO LIVE IN PEACE
LUKE 10:3-6 (CEB) "Go! Be warned, though, that I’m sending you out as lambs among wolves. Carry no wallet, no bag, and no sandals. Don’t even greet anyone along the way. Whenever you enter a house, first say, ‘May peace be on this house.’  If anyone there shares God’s peace, then your peace will rest on that person. If not, your blessing will return to you."

III. RECOGNIZE THAT YOU ARE CALLED TO LIVE WITH FAITHFULNESS
LUKE 10:7-9 (CEB) "Remain in this house, eating and drinking whatever they set before you, for workers deserve their pay. Don’t move from house to house.Whenever you enter a city and its people welcome you, eat what they set before you. Heal the sick who are there, and say to them, ‘God’s kingdom has come upon you.’"
