Areas God want to restore in our life

1.

Joel 2 25

Restore the years and not the crop

   When the crop is eaten, we will nv be able to have it back... We need plant again and takes time to grow

Pic

It's not the lose of achievement tts the most hurtful but it's the time and efforts

Sometimes it's better for a person to go than to suffer in the earth

   What hurts us is not the Lost of the person but not spending more time tgt

Pic deeper communion

When we have deeper communion, we will know tt God is enough for us

Genesis 22

Abraham has alr reached the peak of his life, achieving things in God where it's time for him to retire

Issac represented everything and God's promise that Abraham will be father of many nation

   But one day, God ask him to sacrifice Isaac

God will nv play around with our life.. God will nv set a test to fail us, but a test to promote us

Gen 22

Maybe we are struggling to make sense of God

   Actually we are in the right place in God... 

It is at first thought that it is a place of waste where Issac will be  sacrifice 

   But it turned out that Abraham knows that God is his provider

The ram = Jesus

   We will discover that Jesus is all we need

Nothing in God will be wasted when we trust in God fully

Pic

Abraham is working hard to get things in life..

But then, crisis happens and things were lost.. God is bringing us to another level

   We must be willing to let go and let God

Receiving doesn't mean stop working.. work to please God 

When Abraham is stripped off everything, God will sometimes make us loss everything then we will start to pay attention to God

   When we are left with nothing, we can turn to God

Pic

We will begin to appreciate the loss 

Pic Jehovah jireh

Pic

God gave Abraham a good name... The man of faith

Nothing in God is wasted by a place with deeper in communion with God

We need to let go to rececice.. open our hands...

Pic

Don't get trap in the past, and move on.. don't give up

2. Restore

Joel

God wants to restore when we surrender and receive

When we see that our crops being wiped out, continue to  sow seeds of joy

It doesn't matter how we started

Ready to receive is to willing to go from and start all over again
