On the property here you feel people.

Reaching in and following hard after, your inheritance. We can cause a stir in the spiritual world. If we get off our buts and do something. Don’t settle into the status quo.

Lay Hold of Your Inheritance
Is 49:8,9
Some men have laid down the sword and the weight has just got too heavy. Listen to the Word of God. In the time of the Lord’s favour I will answer you. I will keep you and make to restore the land and re – assign our inheritance. But it is desolate we need to go and lay hold of it. We have been given a treasure we need to go and see what God has for us.

Faith
2 Kings 4:1-7
The story of the woman and the oil.
What do you have in your house? All we need to make a difference is what we have in our hand. Accept a little oil, accept a little faith, accept a little seed give it to God and allow Him to multiply it.

When in need?
2 King4:8-32
The Shun Amite woman – she went the extra mile for Elijah so he asked what can be done for you? A son. God wants to give us what we have need of even before we ask.

He knows exactly what we have need of. She knew where to go to when she needed help. We need to be going to our leaders for help. Elijah wanted to know the condition of her family. She said everything is alright when he asked her. She had full faith in Him being able to help her.

Breath of life
We can’t allow our dreams to die. Allow God to rekindle that in your life. We need to lay on our inheritance, eyes to eyes - hand to hand - breath to breath. Are we prepared to lay upon it and breathe life into it.

Legal U Turns
Allow God to resurrect the dormant areas of our lives. We need to dare to believe in God. Lay hold of the promises of God for your life. Allow the rain of the Holy Spirit to fall on the desolate waters of our lives. This is the impossible becoming possible. We have to fight for our mind don’t let the enemy have his way with your mind. Make a legal U Turn now. We have a choice. We have to be good for ourselves. Why do we want to damage ourselves?

Where will God meet us
Acts16:11-15
Lydia- God will bring people across your path to meet with you when you are seeking the Lord. When we are at the right place at the right time God will meet with us. She met with the woman to pray. The place of prayer is the place to be. That is where God will meet with us. This is the time to be vigilant. We need to be aware of the seasons, where we come alongside each other and lift each others hands up. This is not a game it is about our life.

Work for your inheritance
He will not for sake us but we need to trust Him. Ruth a destiny door knocker. Faithful to the community. Be faithful to the community. Be committed don’t be jumping around, be faithful to her. Then God will be in our midst. Follow hard after her inheritance. Ezra 4v24 where some of the work had come to a stand still. Invest into your inheritance. Carry on sowing and trusting in God for Your inheritance. Prophesy and cherish each other.

Don’t wait forever
2 Tim 4:21 come before winter. Things will not wait forever. Seasons are changing and times are not getting easier. Don’t procrastinate. Deal with things now.

Who says what?
What is God and others saying about you? Our testimony must go before us. We need to create an atmosphere in the presence of God. Quick to repent be conscious to avoid Ecclesiastes 7v26 – the characteristics of a seductress. Show no intention towards other men. It is wicked. Inappropriate behavior, Guard against Isaiah 3v16. 1Tim 2v9 be modest in your dress – Do the mirror check. Raise sons who know how to be gentleman.

Respect
1Tim5v1 – must be willing to help a woman in need

Submission
Ephesians 5v22

What is our Fragrance?
