TESTED

“The Relationship Test”

(James 1:2-4) My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, 3 knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. 4 But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing.

1.The Test

Unhealthy relationships look like:

lack of communication breeds mistrust
dishonesty
walled off emotionally
inconsistent follow through

What builds trust in a relationship, BEING HOT:

Honest
Open
Transparent-God won’t heal what you wont reveal

(Proverbs 3:5-6) Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight

2.The Test

(Ephesians 4:2) Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love.

3.The Test

Boundaries of relationships:

We don’t use the “divorce” word
We don’t yell (if it has happened one of us reminds the other
and we know this is an established boundary)
We don’t call each other names or use profanity
We don’t use absolutes
We apologize(1 Corinthians 13:4-7) 4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

(Galatians 6:9) Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.

4.The Test

(Colossians 3:13) Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you.

(Matthew 6:14-15) For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. 15 But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins.

TESTED

“The Testing of a Dream”

(Genesis 37:5-8 NIV) Joseph had a dream, and when he told it to his brothers, they hated him all the more. He said to them, “Listen to this dream I had:We were binding sheaves of grain out in the field when suddenly my sheaf rose and stood upright, while your sheaves gathered around mine and bowed down to it.” 8 His brothers said to him, “Do you intend to reign over us? Will you actually rule us?” And they hated him all the more because of his dream and what he had said.

(Genesis 37:19-20) 19 “Here comes that dreamer!” they said to each other. 20 “Come now, let’s kill him and throw him into one of these cisterns and say that a ferocious animal devoured him. Then we’ll see what comes of his dreams.”

(Proverbs 19:21) Many are the plans in a person’s heart, but it is the LORD’s purpose that prevails.

1. The Test

(Genesis 37:27-28 NIV) Come, let’s sell him to the Ishmaelites and not lay our hands on him; after all, he is our brother, our own flesh and blood.” His brothers agreed. 28 So when the Midianite merchants came by, his brothers pulled Joseph up out of the cistern and sold him for twenty shekels of silver to the Ishmaelites, who took him to Egypt.

(Genesis 39:6) So Potiphar left everything he had in Joseph’s care; with Joseph in charge, he did not concern himself with anything except the food he ate.

2. The Test

(1 Corinthians 10:13 NIV) No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.

(Genesis 39:7-12) Now Joseph was well-built and handsome, and after a while his master’s wife took notice of Joseph and said, “Come to bed with me!” 8 But he refused. “With me in charge,” he told her, “my master does not concern himself with anything in the house; everything he owns he has entrusted to my care. 9 No one is greater in this house than I am. My master has withheld nothing from me except you, because you are his wife. How then could I do such a wicked thing and sin against God?” 10 And though she spoke to Joseph day after day, he refused to go to bed with her or even be with her. 11 One day he went into the house to attend to his duties, and none of the household servants was inside. 12 She caught him by his cloak and said, “Come to bed with me!” But he left his cloak in her hand and ran out of the house.

If you want to be used by God you have to be faithful in 3 areas of your life:

First things
Small things
Things that don’t belong to you

3. The Test of

(Genesis 39:23) The warden paid no attention to anything under Joseph’s care, because the LORD was with Joseph and gave him success in whatever he did.

(Genesis 40:14-15) But when all goes well with you, remember me and show me kindness; mention me to Pharaoh and get me out of this prison. I was forcibly carried off from the land of the Hebrews, and even here I have done nothing to deserve being put in a dungeon.”

(Genesis 40:23) The chief cupbearer, however, did not remember Joseph; he forgot him.

4.The Test

The Hurt Cycle

Experience Hurt or Loss → Pain → Stay Offended → Bitterness → Anger → Resentment → Revenge

Breaking free

Hurt → Pain → Choose to Heal → Refuse to Isolate → Extend Forgiveness → Move Forward with What God Has for Your Life

(Genesis 45:4-8) 4 Then Joseph said to his brothers, “Come close to me.” When they had done so, he said, “I am your brother Joseph, the one you sold into Egypt! 5 And now, do not be distressed and do not be angry with yourselves for selling me here, because it was to save lives that God sent me ahead of you. 6 For two years now there has been famine in the land, and for the next five years there will be no plowing and reaping. 7 But God sent me ahead of you to preserve for you a remnant on earth and to save your lives by a great deliverance. 8 “So then, it was not you who sent me here, but God.

2. Our in the wilderness will determine how long we stay there

(Exodus 14:12) complaining to Moses: Didn’t we say to you in Egypt, ‘Leave us alone; let us serve the Egyptians’? It would have been better for us to serve the Egyptians than to die in the desert!”

(1 Thessalonians 5:18) give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.

3. When we are in the wilderness we have to take hold of the miracles all around us

(Numbers 11:5-6) “We remember the fish we used to eat for free in Egypt. And we had all the cucumbers, melons, leeks, onions, and garlic we wanted. 6 But now our appetites are gone. All we ever see is this manna!”

4. In the wilderness: you while you wait

(Exodus 7:16) Then say to him, ‘The Lord, the God of the Hebrews, has sent me to say to you: Let my people go, so that they may worship me in the wilderness.

Joy In The Journey

“The Joy of a Generous Life”

(Philippians 4:14-16) Yet it was good of you to share in my troubles. 15 Moreover, as you Philippians know, in the early days of your acquaintance with the gospel, when I set out from Macedonia, not one church shared with me in the matter of giving and receiving, except you only; 16 for even when I was in Thessalonica, you sent me aid more than once when I was in need.

(Philippians 4:17) Not that I desire your gifts; what I desire is that more be credited to your account.

(Philippians 4:18) I have received full payment and have more than enough. I am amply supplied, now that I have received from Epaphroditus the gifts you sent. They are a fragrant offering, an acceptable sacrifice, pleasing to God.

(Galatians 6:7) Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows.

1. You reap you sow

(Galatians 6:8) Whoever sows to please their flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life.

(Proverbs 22:6) Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it.

(Psalm 92:13-15) The righteous will flourish like a palm tree, they will grow like a cedar of Lebanon; 13 planted in the house of the LORD, they will flourish in the courts of our God. 14 They will still bear fruit in old age, they will stay fresh and green, 15 proclaiming, “The LORD is upright; he is my Rock, and there is no wickedness in him.”

2. You reap you sow

(Matthew 25:23) “His master replied, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master’s happiness!’

3. You reap you sow

(2 Corinthians 9:10-11) Now he who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will also supply and increase your store of seed and will enlarge the harvest of your righteousness.

11 You will be enriched in every way so that you can be generous on every occasion, and through us your generosity will result in thanksgiving to God.

4. You reap than you sow

(2 Corinthians 9:11) You will be enriched in every way so that you can be generous on every occasion, and through us your generosity will result in thanksgiving to God.

(Philippians 4:16) for even when I was in Thessalonica, you sent me aid more than once when I was in need.

(Galatians 6:9) Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.

Joy In The Journey

“The Secret to Contentment”

(Philippians 4:10-11) 10 I rejoiced greatly in the Lord that at last you renewed your concern for me. Indeed, you were concerned, but you had no opportunity to show it. 11 I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances.

(Philippians 4:11) I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances

(Philippians 4:12) 12 I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want.

1. to rejoice

(Philippians 4:4) Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!

(Ephesians 2:4-5) But because of his great love for us,God, who is rich in mercy, 5 made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions—it is by grace you have been saved.

(Psalm 103:1-5) Bless the LORD, O my soul; And all that is within me, bless His holy name! 2 Bless the LORD, O my soul, And forget not all His benefits: 3 Who forgives all your iniquities,Who heals all your diseases, 4 Who redeems your life from destruction,Who crowns you with lovingkindness and tender mercies, 5 Who satisfies your mouth with good things, So that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.

2. to resent

(Philippians 4:10)I rejoiced greatly in the Lord that at last you renewed your concern for me.

(Philippians 4:10) I rejoiced greatly in the Lord that at last you renewed your concern for me. Indeed, you were concerned, but you had no opportunity to show it.

3. the season

(Ecclesiastes 3:2-4) There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens:a time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to uproot, a time to kill and a time to heal, a time to tear down and a time to build, a time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance

(Luke 5:4-6) 4 When he had finished speaking, he said to Simon, “Put out into deep water, and let down the nets for a catch.” 5 Simon answered, “Master, we’ve worked hard all night and haven’t caught anything. But because you say so, I will let down the nets.” 6 When they had done so, they caught such a large number of fish that their nets began to break. 7 So they signaled their partners in the other boat to come and help them, and they came and filled both boats so full that they began to sink.

(Luke 5:10-11) Then Jesus said to Simon, “Don’t be afraid; from now on you will fish for people.” So they pulled their boats up on shore, left everything and followed him.

4. Be with your supply

(Philippians 4:19) And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.

(Philippians 4:11-12) 11 I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. 12 I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want.

(Philippians 4:13) I can do all this through him who gives me strength.

Joy In The Journey

“The Anxiety Algorithm”

(Philippians 4:4-6) 4 Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! 5 Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. 6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.

1. Check our

Cycle of Anxiety:

Trigger → A stressful event, fear, or uncertainty arises

Worry & Fear → The mind begins to dwell on the problem, imagining worst-case scenarios.

Control & Avoidance → Trying to control everything or avoiding the issue altogether, which only fuels more stress.

Lack of Trust in God → Anxiety grows as faith diminishes, leading to self-reliance instead of surrender.

More Anxiety → The cycle repeats, with fear leading to more fear.

Cycle of Faith:

Trigger → A stressful event, fear, or uncertainty arises

Prayer & Surrender → Giving worries to God (Philippians 4:6-7).

Trusting God’s Plan → Remembering His provision (Matthew 6:25-34).

Renewing the Mind → Focusing on God’s truth instead of fear (Romans 12:2).

Community → Seeking encouragement from others (Galatians 6:2).

(Philippians 4:7) And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

(Philippians 4:8) Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.

2. Cast it and

(1 Peter 5:7) Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.

(1 Peter 5:6-7) Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time.

The Shepherd provides.

(Psalm 23:2) He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters.

The Shepherd restores and leads.

(Psalm 23:3) He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness For His name’s sake.

The Shepherd protects.

(Psalm 23:4) Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; For You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.

The Shepherd heals.

(Psalm 23:5) You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; My cup runs over.

The Shepherd you follow, determines what follows you.

(Psalm 23:6) Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me All the days of my life; And I will dwell in the house of the LORD Forever.

(John 10:14) I am the good shepherd; I know my sheep and my sheep know me

Facing The Giants

(Acts 2:42) They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer.

(2 Samuel 21:15-17) 15 Once again the Philistines were at war with Israel. And when David and his men were in the thick of battle, David became weak and exhausted. 16 Ishbi-benob was a descendant of the giants; his bronze spearhead weighed more than seven pounds, and he was armed with a new sword. He had cornered David and was about to kill him 17 But Abishai came to David’s rescue and killed the Philistine. Then David’s men declared, “You are not going out to battle with us again! Why risk snuffing out the light of Israel?”

1. Recognize that you are in a

(Ephesians 6:12) For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.

(1 Peter 5:8) Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.

(1 Corinthians 10:12-13) If you think you are standing strong, be careful not to fall. 13 The temptations in your life are no different from what others experience. And God is faithful. He will not allow the temptation

to be more than you can stand. When you are tempted, he will show you a way out so that you can endure.

When we are tempted God shows us a way out:

Wisdom from scripture
Empowerment of the Holy Spirit
Accountability from mentors, leaders, Pastors

2. Recognize when you are

(2 Samuel 21:15) Once again the Philistines were at war with Israel. And when David and his men were in the thick of battle, David became weak and exhausted.

(Genesis 2:2-3) By the seventh day God had finished the work he had been doing; so on the seventh day he rested from all his work. 3 Then God blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on it he rested from all the work of creating that he had done.

(Matthew 11:28) Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.

(Proverbs 11:25) A generous person will prosper; whoever refreshes others will be refreshed.

3. Recognize your

(2 Samuel 21:15) But Abishai came to David’s rescue and killed the Philistine.

The reason for small groups is that we all have giants coming at us:

The giant of depression and anxiety wants to paralyze you from the calling that God has for your life
The giant of materialism and greed wants to distract you from what is really important
The giant of entertainment and busyness wants to keep us focused on things that won’t satisfy our souls

(John 5:6) When Jesus saw him lying there and learned that he had been in this condition for a long time, he asked him, “Do you want to get well?”

(John 5:8-9) 8 Then Jesus said to him, “Get up! Pick up your mat and walk.” 9 At once the man was cured; he picked up his mat and walked.

“Pressing Forward”

(Philippians 3:10-11) I want to know Christ—yes, to know the power of his resurrection and participation in his sufferings, becoming like him in his death, and so, somehow, attaining to the resurrection from the dead.

(Philippians 3:12-14) 12 Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already arrived at my goal, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. 13 Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead 14 I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.

1. We need a forward

(Philippians 3:13) …But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead

✓ We have to forget the mistakes of our past

✓ We have to forget the success of our past

✓ We don’t move forward with potential, we move forward with new patterns

✓ The results you are getting now are the patterns you have designed in the past

“FILLED UP!”

(Ephesians 5:18) Don’t be drunk with wine, because that will ruin your life. Instead, be filled with the Holy Spirit

Let this be a year that you determine that you are going to fill your life with the things of God:

This is going to be a year of prayer
This is going to be a year of fasting
This is going to be a year of devotion to God

(Philippians 2:1) Is there any encouragement from belonging to Christ? Any comfort from his love? Any fellowship together in the Spirit? Are your hearts tender and compassionate?

(Philippians 2:2) Then make me truly happy by agreeing wholeheartedly with each other, loving one another, and working together with one mind and purpose.

(Philippians 2:3) Don’t be selfish; don’t try to impress others. Be humble, thinking of others as better than yourselves.

(Philippians 2:4) Don’t look out only for your own interests, but take an interest in others, too.

(Proverbs 13:20) Walk with the wise and become wise; associate with fools and get in trouble.

(Philippians 2:5) You must have the same attitude that Christ Jesus had.

(Philippians 2:6-7) Though he was God, he did not think of equality with God as something to cling to. Instead, he gave up his divine privileges; he took the humble position of a slave and was born as a human being.

1. Humility is the gateway to

2. Obedience to God leads to

(Philippians 2:8) He humbled himself in obedience to God and died a criminal’s death on a cross.

(John 15:10-11) If you keep my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s commands and remain in his love. I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete.

3. Humility and obedience leads to a

(Philippians 2:10-11) Therefore, God elevated him to the place of highest honor and gave him the name above all other names, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue will declare that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

(James 4:10) Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up in honor.

“Joy When You Are Stuck”

1. Your position is on

(Philippians 1:12-14) And I want you to know, my dear brothers and sisters, that everything that has happened to me here has helped to spread the Good News. 13 For everyone here, including the whole palace guard, knows that I am in chains because of Christ. 14 And because of my imprisonment, most of the believers here have gained confidence and boldly speak God’s message without fear.

(Proverbs 16:9) The heart of man plans his way, but the LORD establishes his steps

(Exodus 13:17-18) When Pharaoh finally let the people go, God did not lead them along the main road that runs through Philistine territory, even though that was the shortest route to the Promised Land. God said, “If the people are faced with a battle, they might change their minds and return to Egypt.” 18 So God led them in a roundabout way through the wilderness toward the Red Sea. Thus the Israelites left Egypt like an army ready for battle.

“Transformation happens when I do consistently what others do occasionally” – Craig Groeschel

(Philippians 1:25-26) Knowing this, I am convinced that I will remain alive so I can continue to help all of you grow and experience the joy of your faith. And when I come to you again, you will have even more reason to take pride in Christ Jesus because of what he is doing through me.
