Sermon Notes

The Journeys of Paul: To the Uttermost Parts
"The Spirit Speaks in Antioch"

Sermon 1 of 4
August 3, 2008 - Pastor Dave Scherrer

Acts 13:1-4

Now there were at Antioch , in the church that was there, prophets and teachers: Barnabas, and Simeon who was called Niger , and Lucius of Cyrene , and Manaen who had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul. While they were ministering to the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, "Set apart for Me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them." Then, when they had fasted and prayed and laid their hands on them, they sent them away. So, being sent out by the Holy Spirit, they went down to Seleucia and from there they sailed to Cyprus .

NOTES:

So you want to change the world . . .

Settle with just transforming "My world" . . .

Who you hang with is as important as what you do . . .

Never again go 'missionally' anywhere alone

Getting out of the blocks strong

With the right Motivation - Ministering to the Lord

With the right Preparation - Prayer and Fasting

With the right Congregation - Antioch not Jerusalem

I hate steps . . . Step #1 for this week

Are you a "Sender" or a "Goer"
