Beyond
Ephesians 3:20-21
Intro. Definition of Hyperactivity: Having behavior characterized by constant over-activity.
Beyond is the “Hyper”Active Work of God
Hyper Panta- More than everything we could ask
Hyper Ekperissou- More than extravagantly answered
KEY: Based on the DYNAMIC power at work within us: Acts 1:8
So many Christians live such a subnormal Christian life that
when they live a NORMAL Christian life, people think they are abnormal.

Me to My Group (Deut 12)
8 “You shall not do at
all what we are doing here today, every man doing whatever is right in his own
eyes; 9 for you have not as yet come to the resting place and the inheritance
which the Lord your God is giving you. 10 When you cross the Jordan and live in
the land which the Lord your God is giving you to inherit, and He gives you rest
from all your enemies around you so that you live in security, 11 then it shall
come about that the place in which the Lord your God will choose for His name
to dwell, there you shall bring all that I command you: your burnt offerings
and your sacrifices, your tithes and
the contribution of your hand, and all your choice votive offerings which you
will vow to the Lord. 12 And you shall rejoice before the Lord your God, you
and your sons and daughters, your male and female servants, and the Levite who
is within your gates, since he has no portion or inheritance with you.
28 “Be careful to listen
to all these words which I command you, so that it may be well with you and
your sons after you forever, for you will be doing what is good and right in
the sight of the Lord your God.
2 Chr 7:13-14
13 If I shut up the heavens so that
there is no rain, or if I command the locust to devour the land, or if I send
pestilence among My people, 14 and My people [d]who are called by My name
humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, will
forgive their sin and will heal
their land.
Mal 3:10-12
10 Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, so that
there may be food in My house, and test Me now in this,” says the Lord of
hosts, “if I will not open for you the windows of heaven and pour out for you a
blessing until it overflows. 11 Then I will rebuke the devourer for you, so
that it will not destroy the fruits of the ground; nor will your vine in the
field cast its grapes,” says the Lord of hosts. 12 “All the nations will call
you blessed, for you shall be a delightful land,” says the Lord of hosts.

Us to My Georgia (Rom 15:24-29)
whenever I go to Spain—for I hope
to see you in passing, and to be helped on my way there by you, when I have
first enjoyed your company for a while— 25 but now, I am going to Jerusalem
serving the saints. 26 For Macedonia and Achaia have been pleased to make a
contribution for the poor among the saints in Jerusalem. 27 Yes, they were
pleased to do so, and they are indebted to them. For if the Gentiles have
shared in their spiritual things, they are indebted to minister to them also in
material things. 28 Therefore, when I have finished this, and have put my seal
on this fruit of theirs, I will go on by way of you to Spain. 29 I know that
when I come to you, I will come in the fullness
of the blessing of Christ.

Now to My Next Generation (2 Tim 2:2)
Faithful men, who will be able to
teach others also
Acts 19:8 And he entered the
synagogue and continued speaking out boldly for three months, reasoning and
persuading them about the kingdom of God. 9 But when some were becoming
hardened and disobedient, speaking evil of the Way before the people, he
withdrew from them and took away the disciples, reasoning daily in the school
of Tyrannus. 10 This took place for two years, so that all who lived in Asia
heard the word of the Lord, both Jews and Greeks.
