Community

God created us to partner and live with him. He empowers us so much when we allow ourselves to be adopted into his kingdom. He created us to live in community. You are a Princess in Gods Kingdom.

A quote from Ps. Brian Houston:

" There is no "I" in Team - There's no "My" in partnership - There's no "me" in unity- There's no "mine" in ours. 

We need to be unified as the of body of christ in order to function properly. We were created to be in community with God and with others. He has reached out to us that we might know who were are and whose we are. 

You were bought at a price at the cross. You belong to the one who created you. He moved heaven and earth to make known to you this steadfast truth :

You Are Wanted

Community defined: is often people who have a common cultural and historical heritage. 

God is our heritage! Nothing has changed about God or his word. Jesus calls you friend and the he will be with you to the end of the earth. God blesses us with friends and family to walk life together. We were created from community. We thrive in community. We have to open our eyes to see it. God wants to spend time with you, just as you spend time on Facebook, or with friends and family. He wants to be your number 1 choice. God wants to spend time with you, he wants you to talk with him about your struggles. Choose God to vent to over social media. He wants to rejoice when you do; and rejoice with you! He wants all of you. God is crazy about you. He created you. 

John 15:15

I have called you friends - Jesus

We have this longing to feel wanted, that's why it hurts so much when someone rejects us. We seek to have the most Facebook friends (are they really all your friends), most Instagram and Twitter followers. When really all this time God has been seeking us, he wants to have a relationship with you. We were created to be in a dependent relationship with God and to rely on him for everything. 

We have been called  out of this world and its value system and invited to live in community in God's eternal kingdom. 

John 17:23

I am in them and you are in me. May they experience such perfect unity that the world will know that you sent me and that you love them as much as you love me! 

We were created to live unified in community of the body of christ in his Kingdom. We are wanted by God. Community is beautiful, and everyone needs it, without community we will sink. The only way to have true community is to be transparent, to encourage, listen, pray for and speak truth to. You aren't meant to do life alone; community is God's idea, and he wants that for you too. A place to be set apart for him yet belong to others. God is faithful if you pray and ask God he will bring the right people in your life. 

Empowered

We can't take what God has done in us and Empower the world until we start within. We must Empower "our" world and our sphere of influence, then take that from there with God we then can Empower the world.

The definition of Empower: 

* to give someone the authority or power to do something

* make (someone) stronger and more confident, especially in controlling their life and claiming rights 

- movements to Empower the poor

God has Empowered you with His Love, Mercy and Grace. 

His Love releases Power! 

Proverbs 31:25

She is clothed with strength and dignity and laughs without fear of the future!

When He alone is our anchor, we are Empowered with His power and authority, 

Those who trust in the Lord will be joyful. 

If we allow God to come and Empower us with Love and Mercy, we will be able to see change in our circumstances, our marriage, our jobs, our homes, schools and the list could go on. There is so much power and strength we can draw from the cross. God wants to empower us with his Joy, Love and Strength. When we walk in our destiny with God in what He has empowered us with we can move mountains everywhere we Go! 

When we seek first His Kingdom and Righteousness, we can see marriages restored, generations restored, government restored, families restored. When we seek Him, He Empowers us with confidence and unexplainable heavenly JOY! 

Proverbs 21:21

Whoever pursues righteousness and unfailing love will find life, righteousness, and honour. 

When we pursue Him first above all else He will give us a the power to be have the confidence in ourselves, we will be empowered to have influence in "our" own worlds.
