Levi's message in York, England

Levi Lusko - Fresh Life Church

Jesus loves us to play a part.
Like Mary and Martha rolling the stone away from Lazarus' tomb.

Invite everyone, bring someone.

2 Timothy 1:9-10
Turn Off the Dark

As long as I am in the world I am the Light of the world.

Hebrews 2:15
Philippians 2:27

Paul is saying death of someone can feel like :
Sorrow upon sorrow
Crashing waves upon the shore, wave upon wave.

There is a grieving process, but it's not so cut and dry.

Acts 14
Paul got to go to Heaven
So he knew Heaven was real. So him grieving even though he knew his loved one (Apaphroditus) was going to Heaven was still sorrow upon sorrow.
It still hurts.
Hurting with Hope still hurts.

John 11
Jesus groaned in His spirit.
He wept.
Heaviness on His chest.
The groaning is our hearts crying.
Groaning :: to bellow with rage
Jesus was outright angry, without sinning.

Hebrews 2:14
Jesus destroyed death by dying.

God never has to build buffer into promises.
With out children we have to be careful with our promises because they remember everything.
God's promises are fulfilled 100% of the time.
He is our of our realm of time.

Philippians 3:21
Jesus restores our worldly body but it's a 2.0 body.

Turn off the dark in your hear in the meantime ::
1. Don't rely on the naked eye!
The stars are always there in the dark night sky, but when you're in a city you may only see a few, but that doesn't mean they're not there.
Heaven is there. Jesus is coming.
2. Be planted in the house.
If you want to get through "Saturday" you need to get to church on Sunday. We need God's people.
3. Let God use your pain.
Opportunity in your trials. No pain is waisted. Pain is a microphone. The more it hurts, the louder you get. You must not be selfish with your pain. God can use pain to comfort others.
4. In your Saturday you have to get good at Cuing the Eagle.
Isaiah 40
God increases their strength.
Those who wait on The Lord shall mount up on wings like eagles.
There's going to come a time that you lose hope.
Where does your help come from?
