Overcoming temptation

Temptation
1. Gak bisa dihindari

2. Never directed by God

Yakobus 1:12-15
Pengujian dan pencobaan
12 Berbahagialah orang yang bertahan dalam pencobaan, sebab apabila ia sudah tahan uji, ia akan menerima mahkota kehidupan yang dijanjikan Allah kepada barangsiapa yang mengasihi Dia. 13 Apabila seorang dicobai, janganlah ia berkata: "Pencobaan ini datang dari Allah!" Sebab Allah tidak dapat dicobai oleh yang jahat, dan Ia sendiri tidak mencobai siapa pun. 14 Tetapi tiap-tiap orang dicobai oleh keinginannya sendiri, karena ia diseret dan dipikat olehnya. 15 Dan apabila keinginan itu telah dibuahi, ia melahirkan dosa; dan apabila dosa itu sudah matang, ia melahirkan

Emotional Resilience - Robi Sonderegger

God responding to authentic heart - pada saat Elijah doa minta hujan pada Tuhan, Tuhan kasih hujan.

Elijah tau Lord is his father so he just pray and ask to God. He knows that God loves him.

Kadang kita sampe to the end where we can take it anymore, seeing God works in other people - Elijah, even Jesus in getsemani "if its possible take this cup for me, but no My will, let Ur will be done"

Sometime the journey is too much for you to bear.
God giving elijah food and sleep ( phisycal needs)

Worrying is always anticipated someting negative that not happen yet.

Worrying is not the solution.

Romans 12:2

Think --> Feel --> body-->action--> think

If we get our foundation right, eat sleep well, we can reverse the direction

Traps : biasanya kita jawab bgini kalo Tuhan tanya kita :
1. Declare your own rightousness
2. Blame others
3. Take on the victim's mentality

Saat dimana we can't take it anymore, God not done yet with us.

When we can stand strong n keep going, its sign of humility.

Then God will ask again, and in this moment God will reveal himslef the truth

More on zone : place out of our limit we can handle something.

Kita harus punya saluran untuk mengeluarkan our frustation from our frustration bucket.

Sometimes when we are in frustration we asking wrong question - why?
We should ask who, who you are, who is God.
We have to keep going, don't stand there and stop.

Psalm 77:1 -
King David was inpleased, but ayat 12 -
Approach God
God is not the accuser, God will cheering up us. God won't condemn us. God will give us accedingly abundantly above beyond what we can ever imagine.

Saat kita mikirin lebih banyak yg kita ga mau,kita akan dpt lbh banyak dari apa yg kita ga mau itu.

Just know who is our Father, He can make all things possible for Him.and He will provide all ur needs.

You will be amazed of His works.

Born Identity - Robi Sonderegger

We designed for relationship ( our brain contain of neuron connection since we born)

We always compare to other about who is better, who is the greatest

Matthew 18 : 2-6 Maka Yesus memanggil seorang anak kecil dan menempatkannya di tengah-tengah mereka 3  lalu berkata: "Aku berkata kepadamu, sesungguhnya jika kamu tidak bertobat dan menjadi seperti anak kecil ini, kamu tidak akan masuk ke dalam Kerajaan Sorga. 4 Sedangkan barangsiapa merendahkan diri dan menjadi seperti anak kecil ini, dialah yang terbesar dalam Kerajaan Sorga. 5 Dan barangsiapa menyambut seorang anak seperti ini dalam nama-Ku, ia menyambut Aku."
6 "Tetapi barangsiapa menyesatkan salah satu dari anak-anak kecil ini yang percaya kepada-Ku, lebih baik baginya jika sebuah batu kilangan diikatkan pada lehernya lalu ia ditenggelamkan ke dalam laut.

Everything has made in purpose.

We have to know how we are, and who God is.

We are belong to our God. Jesus came to start relationship, not religion.

We need to discover our value. when we understand who we are, we know what we worth.

Gift, skill, talent
Parabel tentang talenta - well done good and faithfull servent -
Its not what u got, its about what you do to what u got.

Gift
* what is ur interest
+
Skill
* what is ur passion
=
Talent
* what is ur purpose - the focus shouldn't in me

Bcos sometimes we don't able to see, we no confident.

kita selalu menjadikan diri kita as a center, maka kita selalu ga confident. Padahal kalau fokusnya ga pada kita tp krn kita pgn bless other kita akan be confident lagi.

If we have to pull other ppl down in order to lift myself, we have self esteem.

What produce confident : do what's right. Why do I do what I do?
*whatever you got, invested it wisely to produce mastery and talent
*go ahead and so something nice to someone u don't know
*go ahead and do something nice to someone u don't like - don't let them control u.
*its the right thing to do.

What am I worth? Jesus said you are worth dying for

Relationship Revelation - Robi Sonderegger

If the enemy has plan for your relationship, what is your plan for your relationship.

Colossian 3:12 - therefor, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, put on tender mercies, kindness, humility, meekness, longsuffering

When we engange love in the right place, it will be amazing experience.

5 essential keys to set up relationship :
1. Compassion -

There is mirror in our brain that make us syncronize to someone. When that person sad we will feel sad if we have relationship with that person.

Simple example of mirror neuron: other ppl yawn, we following them yawn.

2. Kindness - It is with the help of another that you recover

3. Humility - humble instead of pointing out others
4. Gentleness - apply gently
No argument is about the topic, but always about emotion behind the topic

5. Patience - be slow to angry, to speak

God's battle plan : col 3 : 12 - 17

When we have problem, put aside emotion for a while and try to solve problem togather.

Forgiveness is less about other more about you.

For every challenge, there is a solution.

Relationship seminar day 1 - Overcoming Temptation - Robbi Sanderegger

Romans 12:2  Janganlah kamu menjadi serupa dengan dunia ini, tetapi berubahlah oleh pembaharuan budimu, sehingga kamu dapat membedakan manakah kehendak Allah: apa yang baik, yang berkenan kepada Allah dan yang sempurna.

Relationship can be greatest experience or can be heartache. Can be blessing or curse.


One part of the brain : control emotional.
1. Pain
2. Pleasure
3.

Pain - need pleasure
B - boredom
L - loneliness
A - agitation
S - stress
T - tiredness

How to overcome pain? Resist it
James 4:7 therefore sumbit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.

1 Cor 6:18 Jauhkanlah dirimu dari percabulan! Setiap dosa lain yang dilakukan manusia, terjadi di luar dirinya. Tetapi orang yang melakukan percabulan berdosa terhadap dirinya sendiri

Kadang apa yang kita lakukan adalah hal yang tidak ingin kita lakukan dan sebaliknya. Example : temptation of sex

Guilt and shame are toxic

- 4 x good friend to keep you accountable
- 4 x good reasons
- 4 x good plans
- 4 x weeks
- 4 x days

Speak the truth and the truth will set you free.

Put on armor of God. Guard your heart.

Enemy always taking up your identity

Temptation usually will last 2-7 minutes .

The only way to experience peace is to be ready. - prepare your feet , shod with readiness.

Menghadapi Tantangan 2012

Yosua 3:1-6
Menyeberangi sungai Yordan

1 Yosua bangun pagi-pagi, lalu ia dan semua orang Israel berangkat dari Sitim, dan sampailah mereka ke sungai Yordan, maka bermalamlah mereka di sana, sebelum menyeberang. 2 Setelah lewat tiga hari, para pengatur pasukan menjalani seluruh perkemahan, 3 dan memberi perintah kepada bangsa itu, katanya: "Segera sesudah kamu melihat tabut perjanjian TUHAN, Allahmu, yang diangkat para imam, yang memang suku Lewi, maka kamu harus juga berangkat dari tempatmu dan mengikutinya -- 4 hanya antara kamu dan tabut itu harus ada jarak kira-kira dua ribu hasta panjangnya, janganlah mendekatinya -- maksudnya supaya kamu mengetahui jalan yang harus kamu tempuh, sebab jalan itu belum pernah kamu lalui dahulu." 5 Berkatalah Yosua kepada bangsa itu: "Kuduskanlah dirimu, sebab besok TUHAN akan melakukan perbuatan yang ajaib di antara kamu." 6 Dan kepada para imam itu Yosua berkata, demikian: "Angkatlah tabut perjanjian dan menyeberanglah di depan bangsa itu." Maka mereka mengangkat tabut perjanjian dan berjalan di depan bangsa itu.

Pada saat mereka maju untuk mengalahkan kota yerikho, dan masuk ke tanah perjanjian, ada sungai Yordan yg harus disebrangi.
Selalu ada tantangan dalam hidup kita.

Apa yg harus kita siapkan untuk menghadapi tantangan :
1. Jangan menunda visimu ( Yosua 3:1 - Yosua bangun pagi2)
2. Ikuti pemimpin rohanimu ( yosua 3:2-3 maka km hrs juga berangkat dari tmptmu dan mengikuti)
3. Nantikan hadirat Tuhan ( yosua 3:3-4 - jalan itu belum pernah kamu lalui dahulu - ikutin tabut perjanjian)
4. Kuduskan dirimu (yosua 3:5 kuduskanlah dirimu sebab bsk Tuhan akan makukan perbuatan ajaib di antara kamu)
5. Percaya janji firman Tuhan ( yosua 3:9-13)
Mazmur 103:2
6. Ambil langkah iman ( yosua 3:14 ) pada saat para imam mencelupkan kakinya ke sungai Yordan mujizat terjadi

Faith

Hebrew 11:1 - faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

Faith = confident.

Hebrew 10:35 therefore do not cast away your confidence, which has great reward.

How to be confident in God
Mark 11:22 -23 : so Jesus answered and said to them, have faith in God. For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, be removed and be cast into the sea, and does no doubt in his heart but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says.

1. Hidup kudus

Jangan mengandalkan apa yang kita punyai, atau apapun tetapi andalkan Tuhan karena Tuhan selalu ada bersama kita.

Mark 11:21-22

Percaya bahwa Tuhan ada disisi kita, pasti kita ada damai sejahtera dan percaya bahwa apa yang kita minta pasti dikasih. Dalam kesusahan apapun selalu merasa secure karena Tuhan pasti menjaga dan memberikan yang terbaik.
Dengan Tuhan dgn kita, bisa melawan apa saja.

Taruh harapan dan confidence kita dalam Tuhan.

Filipi 4:13 - I can do all things trough Christ who strengthen me.

1 John 3:21 - beloved, if our heart does not condemn us, we have confidence toward God.

Quick answer

Psalm 102:2 - ask God to answer prayer speedily
Kadang Tuhan menjawab doa kita bahkan sebelum kita memintanya.
Luke 17 - as they were on the way, they were healed.
Mark 5:27 - bleeding woman. 12 years of waiting. But when she turned to Jesus, she get healed.
What we think about God, its how God to us.
Acts 5:21 -
What God thinks about prosperity : psalm 118:24-25
Psalm 118:27 - bind the sacrifice

I could say its hard to be in this situation. I've been trying to win this battle, but end up broken.

I know, my first and fatal mistake is letting myself fight in the battle. Yes. I shouldn't fight by myself, cus the battle is God's.
God said that He will win the battle for me. What should I do is just wait and see, and keep praising God. ( Remember the story of King Yosaphat won the battle)
Keep the joy in me so I can be strengthen. Keep God's word as a power and reminder that we will win the battle for sure.

We don't fight by flesh and don't fight flesh, but by the spirit of God to fight the evil spirit which want us to be week and down.

Let rejoice and praise God, keep the joy of the Lord in our heart. Let God fight for our battle cus we will win for sure :)

Never Forget - Steve Munsey

Don't forget the mirror of God (God's word).
Don't forget about how we are in Christ - we are the apple of His eyes, the head and not the tail.

But if we forget about how we are in Christ, we will start to listen to this world.
Don't forget what God has done in our life, don't forget about what God is doing in our life.

When God for us, who can be againts us? Joy of the Lord is our strength, we can't defeat the enemy when we have no joy.

Samson never forget how he was, where he get his power until delilah cut his hair. They cut his eyes, so he can't see himself in the mirror.

When he cried out to God and see who he was, not by his eyes but his spiritual eyes, his power is back.
