It’s A New Season

In this message, Pastor DaVon challenges us to recognize that God is doing something new in this season. He poses a powerful question: Will you embrace what God is doing now, or will you continue to hold on to old expectations from a past season?

NOTES

James 2:17-20

Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead. But someone will say, “You have faith, and I have works.” Show me your faith without your works, and I will show you my faith by my works. You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe—and tremble! But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is dead?

James 2:26

For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.

  • Faith is both spiritual and practical

  • Faith (belief) without works (action) is dead

  • Faith always produces movement.

  • If you truly believe something, it will eventually be seen in your actions. 

  • The proof of desire is pursuit

  • Faith can be invisible, but it should never be untraceable. 

  • Faith is the root, actions are the fruit.

  • Real faith is our willingness to move when God says move. 

Examples of Movement in my life:

  • Fired From KCM

  • Move to Charlotte

  • Left Wachovia

  • Started TrueLife 

Hebrews 11:6

But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.

  • 2 things: Believe He exists, Believe He’s a rewarder

  • God is pleased when you believe Him for something that hasn’t happened yet. 

Ecclesiastes 3:1

To everything there is a season, A time for every purpose under heaven:

  • Do you accept what God is doing in this season of your life… instead of holding on to old expectations? 

Isaiah 43:18-19

Do not remember the former things, Nor consider the things of old. Behold, I will do a new thing, Now it shall spring forth; Shall you not know it? I will even make a road in the wilderness And rivers in the desert.

So today:

  • Release old expectations.

  • Accept what God is doing in this season.

  • Take a step that proves your faith is alive.
