With this teaching, you will learn what it means to have an excellent spirit. Identify with who you are in Christ, and go beyond your natural talents and abilities today! 00:44 Today I'm continuing a series that I started this last Monday, this is my third day, teaching from a new book that I've got entitled ‘Excellence’, and the subtitle is ‘How to Pursue an Excellent Spirit’. This is talking about your attitude, an attitude, a perspective of excellence where you just do things heartily as to the Lord and not to man. 2:03 God made you for something special. God has never made a piece of junk. God has never made anybody to be average or to be normal. 5:41 We need to become dissatisfied with mediocrity. We need to recognize that God made us for more than just surviving and living a life and then when we're gone, nobody even misses us because it wasn't making a difference. I tell you, if you aren't living on the edge, you're taking up too much space. 6:46 You influence people that'll never be reached by me or by other people. You have a purpose… 12:31 God wants us to increase and this goes against our whole culture where you just accept people the way they are and God loves us the way we are, but He loves us so much He doesn't want us to stay the way we are. He has given every one of us gifts and talents and abilities and He wants us to start using this. He wants us to excel. 19:35 All of these names, Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, Azariah, they all had something in their names about God, that God will prosper, God will save, God will deliver. Their identity was in God and Nebuchadnezzar sought to change their identity and gave them Babylonian names… Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, but they maintained their own identity. The point is, here's one of the things about an excellent spirit: You have to know who you are and you need to find your identity in Christ, in who you are in Christ and not let this world mold you. 20:20 Romans 12.2 “Don't be conformed to the image of this world: but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God”. The word ‘conform’ there, means, to pour into the mold… so…don't be poured into this mold of religion or of the world or the immorality of the world. We need to be poured into the mold of what God's Word says. 23:06 We need to stand up just like Daniel and his three friends did right here and we need to find our identity in who we are in Christ as revealed in the Bible. ============================================ Andrew Wommack Ministries http://www.awmi.net/ https://awme.net/ https://www.facebook.com/AWMinistries https://twitter.com/andrewwommack https://instagram.com/andrewwommack/ https://www.pinterest.com/andrewwommack/ ====================================================== https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLOER0yhdOW6Au1VtKx-A64xCs8rL_aA0N
