This week Pastor Vlad teaches us on the importance of perspective in every season. Just like Joseph, there are four distinct seasons in our lives, each season plays a role in character building.
Notes:
The Story of Joseph
Season 1 - Tunic of Many Colors (Genesis 37:3)
Season 2 - Garment of a Slave (Genesis 39:16)
Season 3 - Clothing of a Prisoner (Genesis 41:14)
Season 4 - Garments of Fine Linen (Genesis 41:42)
1. Person without a vision will always be a slave to their reality.
“If you aim for impossible you get maximum. If you aim for maximum you get minimum. If you aim for minimum you get nothing.”
Non-dreams hate on dreamers but then end up working for them.
Having a dream:
A. Gives room for the Holy Spirit
B. Elevates you above your present
C. Fuels your life with purpose
2. God does not change when the seasons do. (Genesis 39:2-3)
They took your coat but they can’t take your anointing. Stay attached to God, not to your season.
Don’t judge someone based on their season.
Because God is with you:
A. Your success doesn’t depend on position but on person.
B. Flee temptation, don’t flirt with trouble.
C. Work on your character more than reputation.
Enemy can ruin your reputation but only you can ruin your character.
Fleeing temptation shifts the season, flirting with sin delays your destiny.
3. Serve the dreams of others when your dreams seem dead.
Your pain is the an excuse to stop serving.
Serving:
A. Activates the gifts of the Holy Spirit
B. Before you can serve palace, serve in prison
C. Even if people forget you, God will reward you
Life is like tennis, those who serve well, seldom lose.
4. Your dream will improve destiny of others.
God’s dream:
A. Breaks cycle of repeated failure
B. Elevates your family
C. Feeds those in your sphere of influence
Breakthrough breaks the cycle Breakthrough helps your family Breakthrough feeds those around you
