Eph 1:18 your eyes focused and clear, so that you can see exactly what it is he is calling you to do, grasp the immensity of this glorious way of life he has for Christians,
Eph 1:19 oh, the utter extravagance of his work in us who trust him--endless energy, boundless strength!
Eph 1:20 All this energy issues from Christ: God raised him from death and set him on a throne in deep heaven,
Eph 1:21 in charge of running the universe, everything from galaxies to governments, no name and no power exempt from his rule. And not just for the time being, but forever.
Eph 1:22 He is in charge of it all, has the final word on everything. At the center of all this, Christ rules the church.
Eph 1:23 The church, you see, is not peripheral to the world; the world is peripheral to the church. The church is Christ's body, in which he speaks and acts, by which he fills everything with his presence.
What we believe about God is the most powerful thing about us
Wat ons sien/ Ons a-ha oomblikke
Perspective is everything
Worship word gebore uit ons a-ha oomblikke – dis wie Hy is!/dis wie jy is
Worship is nie ‘n song wat ons sing nie
Worship is die enigste reaksie op die revelation (unveiling/gordyn ooptrek)
Eph. 1:11 It’s in Christ that you discover who He is and who you are
Worship weerspieel in jou leefstyl/Impak op hoe jy leef

Mat 16:13(AOV) En toe Jesus in die streke van Cesaréa-Filippi kom, vra Hy sy dissipels en sê: Wie sê die mense dat Ek, die Seun van die mens, is?
Mat 16:14 En hulle antwoord: Sommige Johannes die Doper, en sommige Elía, en ander Jeremia of een van die profete.
Mat 16:15 Hy sê vir hulle: Maar julle, wie sê julle is Ek?
Mat 16:16 En Simon Petrus antwoord en sê: U is die Christus, die Seun van die lewende God.
Mat 16:17 Toe antwoord Jesus en sê vir hom: Salig is jy, Simon Bar-Jona, want vlees en bloed het dit nie aan jou geopenbaar nie, maar my Vader wat in die hemele is.
Mat 16:18 En Ek sê ook vir jou: Jy is Petrus, en op hierdie rots sal Ek my gemeente bou, en die poorte van die doderyk sal dit nie oorweldig nie.
Mat 16:19 En Ek sal jou die sleutels van die koninkryk van die hemele gee; en wat jy ook op die aarde mag bind, sal in die hemel gebonde wees, en wat jy ook op die aarde mag ontbind, sal in die hemel ontbonde wees.
Mat 16:20 Daarop het Hy sy dissipels bevel gegee dat hulle vir niemand moes sê dat Hy Jesus die Christus is nie.
Mat 16:17(MSG) Jesus came back, "God bless you, Simon, son of Jonah! You didn't get that answer out of books or from teachers. My Father in heaven, God himself, let you in on this secret of who I really am.
Mat 16:18 And now I'm going to tell you who you are, really are. You are Peter, a rock. This is the rock on which I will put together my church, a church so expansive with energy that not even the gates of hell will be able to keep it out.
Mat 16:19 "And that's not all. You will have complete and free access to God's kingdom, keys to open any and every door: no more barriers between heaven and earth, earth and heaven. A yes on earth is yes in heaven. A no on earth is no in heaven."
When we have a revelation of who Jesus really is, then we are in a position to hear who we really are Identity determines activity – Alan Platt
The church’s identity and access to heaven’s provision are intimately tied to her revelation of Christ – Lisa Bevere
In other words, if we have no revelation of who Christ is, we will have no provision.
Your concept of God will be reflected in you
1Jn 4:17(AOV) …want soos Hy is, is ons ook in hierdie wêreld.
Because He is … I am …
My people are destroyed for a lack of knowledge???
2Pe 1:1(MSG) I, Simon Peter, am a servant and apostle of Jesus Christ. I write this to you whose experience with God is as life-changing as ours, all due to our God's straight dealing and the intervention of our God and Savior, Jesus Christ.
2Pe 1:2 Grace and peace to you many times over as you deepen in your experience with God and Jesus, our Master.
2Pe 1:3 Everything that goes into a life of pleasing God has been miraculously given to us by getting to know, personally and intimately, the One who invited us to God. The best invitation we ever received!
2Pe 1:4 We were also given absolutely terrific promises to pass on to you--your tickets to participation in the life of God after you turned your back on a world corrupted by lust.
2Pe 1:5 So don't lose a minute in building on what you've been given, complementing your basic faith with good character, spiritual understanding,
2Pe 1:6 alert discipline, passionate patience, reverent wonder,
2Pe 1:7 warm friendliness, and generous love, each dimension fitting into and developing the others.
2Pe 1:8 With these qualities active and growing in your lives, no grass will grow under your feet, no day will pass without its reward as you mature in your experience of our Master Jesus.
Getting to know Christ practically for myself is what gives me access to the promises of God to my life.
Experiences/Encounters/Worship with God teaches me about God and His ways.
Mat 16:5 En toe sy dissipels na die oorkant gegaan het, het hulle vergeet om brode saam te neem.
Mat 16:6 Daarop sê Jesus vir hulle: Pas op en wees op julle hoede vir die suurdeeg van die Fariseërs en Sadduseërs.
Mat 16:7 En hulle het onder mekaar geredeneer en gesê: Dit is omdat ons geen brode saamgeneem het nie.
Mat 16:8 Maar Jesus het dit opgemerk en vir hulle gesê: Wat redeneer julle onder mekaar, kleingelowiges, dat julle geen brode saamgeneem het nie?
Mat 16:9 Begryp julle nog nie, en onthou julle nie die vyf brode van die vyf duisend, en hoeveel mandjiesvol julle opgetel het nie?
Mat 16:10 Of die sewe brode van die vier duisend, en hoeveel mandjiesvol julle opgetel het nie?
Mat 16:11 Hoe is dit dat julle nie begryp dat Ek nie in verband met brood vir julle gesê het om op te pas vir die suurdeeg van die Fariseërs en Sadduseërs nie?
Mat 16:12 Toe het hulle begryp dat Hy nie gesê het dat hulle moes oppas vir die suurdeeg van die brood nie, maar vir die leer van die Fariseërs en Sadduseërs.
Fariseers gaan oor godsdienstige stelsel
Gewoontes/tradisies/vorm sonder enige lewe
Hoe ons encounters/revelation steward launch ons in nuwe dimensies
How we steward our revelation of Christ will either limit us or launch us into braving new frontiers of our faith.
