*** Notes from today's sermon ***

12/23/12

Pastor Troy Ingram

Subject : The mind of Christ

Scripture reading;

Luke 1 : 26 - 37

Thought: As I think, so am I. ( we are never far apart from our thinking)

Challenge : To speak God's word to lead me
- if we don't follow God's Word we will follow our own Word.

Because we are blessed we will always have. When you pray to God for something thank him before it happens, praise him while you wait for it!

The same angel (Gabriel) that spoke with Mary spoke to Daniel 509 years earlier.
- The prince of Persia tried to stop Gabriel from his assignment, but Gabriel did not let him deter him from his assignment.
- Don't let anything get in the way of what God has assigned to you. God has given us all assignments for our lives.

We are blessed and highly favored! Be prepared for greatness!!!

The devil thought he had you when you fell. But with God on our side we can get up and overcome! We don't have to stay down, we are blessed and highly favored!

Gabriel told Mary she will conceive a son in her womb. Mary probably thought he meant when she was married. However what Gabriel was saying was "though shall conceive as soon as you receive"

God is blessing us in abundance!

Greater is he that is in me than he that is in the World!

When Mary received what the angel said she conceived it because she believed it.

• AS WE THINK, SO ARE WE!
