The Bible teaches us to give the first 10% of our income to the "storehouse." God says we can test Him by doing this and watching Him take care of us in return. This may sound like a stretch to you! Just take a step toward toward that goal. If you currently give nothing, start giving something. If you give something, try increasing it a step toward the 10% goal. Trust God! Give Him your first before anything else by setting up a recurring, automated donation online. You will then receive quarterly updates about how your giving is making a difference and how your donations are being used.
http://www.onelifeknox.com/giveBottom Line: To go where I have never gone before, I must be willing to do what I have never done before.
1. Living in the past prevents moving into the future.
2. What God desires for the future doesn't even compare to what I experienced in the past.
3. The new thing fuels the flame of what God has already started.
4. My prayer and my sacrifice fuel the flame.
START TALKING:
When have you experienced something that you thought you were prepared for or had seen before, but once you started or were in the midst of it, you realized it was unlike anything you had done before?

START THINKING:
Read Isaiah 43:1-19. What are the "former things" or "all that" that God wants the nation of Israel to stop relying on and living in?
As amazing as these things are that God has done for them in their past, why does he want them to stop calling those to mind or relying on them?

START SHARING:
What are the former things or "all that" that God has done for you in the past? Even though He doesn't want you to live in the past and rely on those, that was the flame that got ignited in and for you! Share those things and celebrate them for a moment.
If you continue looking backward, what does verses 18 and 19 say you might miss out on? What might that be for you? What might it be for our church?
Read John 14:12. How does this verse align with the message of Isaiah 43:18-19? What are the greater things that you have and we have experienced? How have you experienced this truth in your everyday life and in your own spiritual journey?

START DOING:
Read Isaiah 43:22-23 again. What do these verses challenge you and us to do so that we can fuel the flame and experience what we have never experienced before?
What days will you fast as part of our 40 days of prayer and fasting? What are you asking God to do? What are you expecting from this time? What will you pray that God does in and through our church during this time?

START PRAYING:
Pray for each person in the micro church to experience God in a way that they have never experienced Him before as they do what they have never done before. Pray that we will not live in the past - be it in our personal lives, our families, or in our church - but build on the past to experience what we have never experienced before!

Take a Next Step!
Don't just attend church for an hour a week. Take a step! What step should you take?
1. Follow Jesus! If you have followed Jesus...
2. Get baptized! If you are following Jesus, then that's all you need to be "ready" to take this step.
3. Volunteer! Don't simply be a consumer, but be part of making a difference in the lives of those who come to OneLife to experience Jesus. There are weekday and Sunday opportunities. Get info about what opportunities there are for you!
4. Join a micro church! You can't have true community sitting in rows with a large crowd. That's not the church - it's an event! Micro churches are small "churches" of 10-12 adults that meet in homes throughout the week to learn together, pray together, serve the community together, and care for each other together.
Get more information about any of the above, send us your prayer requests so we can pray with you, or ask any question we can help you with by filling out the online connection card!
