Who We Need to Be

Pastor Bob Fox
John 8:32; Romans 12:11

It is absolutely undeniable that giant steps toward spiritual maturity are in me through the Holy Spirit. I must cultivate two things in me to enable them to actually occur.

  1. I must be a truth person (John 8:32).
    • I will relentlessly confront my thoughts and actions in light of the lofty standard of Jesus Christ.
    • I will believe God loves me as I am, but also that He is unwilling to have me stay there.
    • I will escape where I’ve been or blame me!
  2. I must be motivated (Rom. 12:11).
    • I must view low motivation in spiritual things as the sin and rebel in me.
    • I must continually supply what feeds the Spirit’s flame in me.
    • I will force the Lord’s agenda on my dreams, schedule, relationships, and finances.

In 2010 I must create more spiritual resource than I consume . . .

  1. I must help form the core rather than load it.
  2. I must live by pattern rather than impulse.
  3. I must build relational equity rather than spend it.
