SERIES: Come to the Feast!
TITLE: A New Diet
TEXT: Psalm 37:1-9 (p.466); Rom.12:1-2 (p.947)
I. A NEW TARGET
“God is transforming us for where He is going to take us.”
“Transformation happens when we allow the Spirit to transform the heart of the leader to see Jesus Christ.”
“There is a transformation we go through before we get to where we need to go.”
Chipotle’s Secret: “A Tested Recipe: Five Ingredients”
1) It’s the food, stupid.
2) Keep it simple.
3) Fast is still important.
4) There’s always room for improvement.
5) Embrace your “enemy.”
II. A NEW PLAN
Romans 12:1-2
1) (Consecration) means “set apart or reserved for God.”
2) (Transformation) is the next step.
“Fret” is the word (worry). Means “to cause to suffer emotional strain, or to eat or gnaw into, to become uneasy.”
“Fretting heats the bearings, but it rarely produces power.”
4 essentials to the plan for a new diet:
1. (TRUST) [v.3] “Casting all your anxieties upon him, because he cares for you.” I P.5:7
2. (DELIGHT) [v.4]
3. (COMMIT) [v.5]
4. (BE STILL) [v.6]
