Fed Up-Fill Up-Fired Up!
Get tired of frustration in your life- Then take some Action and Move Forward!
Dream: We ALL Need to Dream and have a Vision for each area of our Life!
If we are “Fed Up” then let us “Fill Up” and then be “Fired Up” for some Action!
Being “Fed Up” is to accept a responsibility for your own wrong doing.
Being Fed is positioning you to CHANGE and make room for God to Replace things for you to “Fill Up”.
* Be Fill up with the Holy Spirit (Power)
* Be Fill up with FAITH
We need FAITH to believe the Dream will become fulfilled.
*Be Fill up with Grace.
Grace is God’s empowering presence
The Power to BE who you’re called to be to DO what you’re called to DO.
The greatest way to get GRACE is to “Humble” yourself.
Be “Fired up”! Never be lacking in Zeal! We believers have Victory already through the Cross. (1 John 4:4).
Gotta be Passionate. Passion fuels focus, which burns doubt and apprehension.
1 Peter 1:17 And remember that the heavenly Father to whom you pray has no favorites. He will judge or reward you according to what you do. So you must live in reverent fear of him during your time as “foreigners in the land.”
The problem in our spiritual lives is: “spiritual malnutrition”.
Symptoms of spiritual malnutrition:
1. Energy depletion — We have grown tired of the wait. Lost our Dream!
1 Peter 1:13 So think clearly and exercise self-control. Look forward to the gracious salvation that will come to you when Jesus Christ is revealed to the world.
2. Excitement depletion. Hope has been wavering. “Fed Up”.
3. Holiness depletion– If it feels good, then we think “just do it”.
1 Peter 1:14 So you must live as God’s obedient children. Don’t slip back into your old ways of living to satisfy your own desires. You didn’t know any better then.
Causes of spiritual malnutrition:
*Lack of a personal, intimate relationship with Jesus Christ!
*1 Peter 1:18 For you know that God paid a ransom to save you from the empty life you inherited from your ancestors. And the ransom he paid was not mere gold or silver. 19 It was the precious blood of Christ, the sinless, spotless Lamb of God.
22 You were cleansed from your sins when you obeyed the truth, so now you must show sincere love to each other as brothers and sisters. Love each other deeply with all your heart.
23 For you have been born again, but not to a life that will quickly end. Your new life will last forever because it comes from the eternal, living word of God.
The Spiritual malnutrition Cure:
1. Get saved! Renew and increase your personal relationship wit JESUS!
Romans 3: 22 We are made right with God by placing our faith in Jesus Christ. And this is true for everyone who believes, no matter who we are.
Read. Colossians 1:19-23
2. Be Holy!
1 Thess. 4:3 God’s will is for you to be holy,
1 Peter 1:15 But now you must be holy in everything you do, just as God who chose you is holy.
Galatians 5:22 But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against these things!
3. Celebrate your New Life. (Eph 2:1-10)
4. Set your Hope and Trust on Jesus and be filled with Jesus Love so you in-turn-can give Love away to others and Heal!
1 Thess. 2:19 After all, what gives us hope and joy, and what will be our proud reward and crown as we stand before our Lord Jesus when he returns? It is you!
* They(New believers) are a source of joy, and hope – like a “crown” – as Paul said. Conversely, nothing is more troubling than when one of these falls away. So we need to encourage them, stay with them, and help them grow up in the faith.
Lord, help me to be faithful to encourage those you have entrusted to my care and leadership. Help me not to be so distracted by the next project or responsibility, that I lose sight of those You’ve entrusted to my care for today. And thank You for that trust.
Watch for the enemy to undermine your confidence by speaking lies about your Viability and Worth. Refuse to internalize Rejection, for it will assuredly bring condemnation and a sense of alienation. This attack is designed to cause spiritual paralysis and keep you from walking in the Spirit.
Rise up and remind yourself of the TRUTH. “There is no condemnation for those who belong to Christ Jesus. And because you belong to him, the power of the life-giving Spirit has freed you from the power of sin that leads to death”. You are the Lord’s Masterpiece and have great value in His kingdom.
*1 Peter 2:1-5 Therefore, laying aside all malice, all deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and
all evil speaking, as newborn babes, desire the pure milk of the word, that you may grow thereby, if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is gracious. Coming to Him as to a living stone, rejected indeed by men, but chosen by God and precious, you also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.
My Lord and savior, I come to You with this prayer of acknowledgment of who I am in you Father. Lord you have made me like no other, for I am not like the others of this world for You have renewed me through the blood and through your stripes of pain and suffering on my behalf. Lord, I am Your chosen one, You have made me one of your royal priest to bring forth Your Word and teach the goodness of your Father God. I am of a holy nation now, which is of You, for I am not of this world anymore for You have called me out of the darkness into Your wonderful light. I am Your personal possession oh Lord, for I am no longer blind of the deception of this world and of Satan’s tricks. I am not of this world for You have made me your possession to serve You, I am one of your royal priest. I thank You for this task set forth in front of me Lord. I receive it and I claim this in Your Holy and Majestic Name, Jesus Christ, Amen
