DISCIPLES WALK
Ephesians 1:1-14
Ephesians 2:1-10
• You are careless when you act out of character and think you can do anything without consequences.
• You are either walking the disciples walk with God or you are walking with Satan.
• There is a conduct of the disciple that we must follow. We are not to do what everyone else does. We must not follow the course or fashion of the world.
• Ephesians 2:2 fits everything that we are dealing with in the world today. For example, everything that is wrong is made to look right, and if you stand up for what is right and descent, you are criticized.
• Satan’s job is to allure us with temptations.
• There is a walk the believer is commanded to follow. Ephesians chapter 1 talks about all the blessings of the disciples walk.
• Ephesians chapter 2 talks about what happens when we follow the old walk and what happens when we operate in the new walk.
Ephesians 4:1
• We are to lead a life that shows that there has been a change in us.
• While we are helping others, we are still growing.
• Four key words we deal with each day: decision, change, transition and transformation. These four words are impacting everything in our lives.
• If we want to experience a greater area of transformation and God’s greater blessings, we must walk in a greater area of how we conduct ourselves. We should be in a constant state of changing, and that is working on ourselves.
• When we are dealing with challenges, we become stronger through our victory.
Genesis 17:1
• “You never outgrow the area of growing.” Phillip Goudeaux
• God is not telling us to be perfect; He is telling us to strive for maturity.
• We must work on our mind and flesh every day.
• We must read the Word every day. The devil will fight us each day from spending time with God.
• We should be memorizing scriptures.
• There is a constant warfare in our lives to keep us from growing. We grow by praying, fasting, reading, and memorizing scriptures.
• There can be warfare going to church. The enemy will try to stop you from going to church Sunday night, and Wednesday or Thursday night.
• G12 is about our walk with God and helping others in their walk with God.

The Disciples Walk
Romans 6: 1- 4
What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? God forbid .How shall we, that are dead to sin,
live any longer therein? Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized unto his death?
Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death; that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the
Father , even so we also should walk in the newness of life.
• There is a walk that every disciple should have.
• People are looking for those that are walking upright.
• We should live in a newness of life.
• A lot of people examine everyone but themselves.
• We need to work on ourselves and any issues that we have.
• All leaders must examine themselves.
• We must be able to take correction.
• A person with the right spirit sees correction as a stepping stone that will make them better.
• We should be emulating Christ in every area.
• When we are under attack from someone, we must recognize that it is God’s battle, not ours.
Ephesians 5: 1 -14
Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath
given himself for us an offering and sacrifice to God for a sweet smelling savor.
• Remember Christ loved us in our sins (when we had done wrong).
• We need to walk in love, even when people viciously attack us.
• When we make a commitment to walk in love, we will have an opportunity to use it.
• We must avoid jesting and gossiping. For example, instead of joining in gossip,
• We should start giving thanks for what God has done in our lives.
• Don’t let anyone talk you out of obeying God.
• We are to walk in newness, as the children of light, not as the children of darkness.
• We were in darkness, and we walked as the children of darkness.
• Therefore, we must make corrections. The 3 areas that will help us walk in the light
• Are understanding God’s goodness, righteousness, and truth.
• We should reach out to the unsaved; however, we should not have intimacy with them.
• We should be prepared to reprove or correct people when they are out of line.
• God commands us to see clearly and be aware of our surroundings.
• We should not look like people that are unsaved or dead.
(Example: if you went to a morgue where there were dead people, if there was someone
stretched out sleeping, they would appear dead). Everyone that is unsaved is dead.
• Don’t be afraid to be different than your counterparts.
G12 Meeting Sunday (4/18/2010) 6:30 a.m. Pastor Goudeaux 2x2
1 Corinthian 15:34
• We must walk in the newness of life. We must have an awareness of who we are in Christ.
• We must walk in love, not hate or bitterness and anger
Isaiah 52: 1
• We have a responsibility of living an aware life. This means not sleeping with the dead or being carnal.
Ephesians 5:15
• We must walk in the newness of life.
• We must walk with God in love.
• We must walk as children of the light.
• We must walk circumspectly
All of the above are a part of the disciple’s walk. It is a personal responsibility of each one of us to make sure we are watching every aspect of our lives.

II Timothy 2:1-2
1Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. 2And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.
• Spiritual warfare, there are battles that go on with our disciples.
• Timothy was a Pastor of the Ephesus Church, and it was going through attacks.
• You don’t find out where people are until there are pressures or attacks.
• The devil tries to locate where you are. He took out 1/3 of the angels. Without Jesus, we don’t stand a chance.
• How we get strong is through reading the Word each day.
• In verse 2, Paul was telling Timothy not to appoint just anyone, but make sure they were tested men.
• Faithfulness tags along with strong commitment, reliability, etc.
G12 is different than open cell. You want to select faithful men/women (reliable, trustworthy). Correction will locate level of commitment. You often cannot tell where a person is until you correct them. You cannot put an immature person into a leadership position.
I Corinthians 4:1-2
1Let a man so account of us, as of the ministers of Christ, and stewards of the mysteries of God. 2Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful.
• God is not going to turn things over to an immature person.
• Good character reflects a level of maturity.
• We are all stewards.
• God has put a lot into us and requires a lot of us.
• We must be faithful and prove ourselves worthy of trust.
• When we give people trust, we are giving them power.
• “The way up is service.” Pastor Phillip Goudeaux
II Timothy 2:3-5
3Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. 4No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier. 5And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned, except he strive lawfully.
• When you are going through hell, endure it. Stay single-minded and focused.
• When you lose focus, you lose ground.
• You endure by staying in faith. When Peter was walking on water he began to sink because his faith began to drop.
• When you are going through something, there is a lesson to be learned.
• You have to hold your position by staying in faith.
• Our job is to please God. To be a good steward, we must not get entangled in circumstances.
G12 Life Group Notes– April 11, 2010–6:30 a.m. Pastor Goudeaux (Page 2 of 2)
• Pastor is challenging us to stay in faith.
• To strive means exertion, effort, strong commitment either physically or mentally.
• Crown refers to a victor’s crown of honor.
• Paul is talking to Timothy about warfare.
• We have to continue to exert and strive to get the victor’s crown.
• Some want the crown without the exertion.
• To make a big difference, we must stay focused.
• The enemy wants to throw us off by creating negative feelings, like people failing to attend G12 meetings.
• We must keep doing what we are doing now and not slow down.
• Our goal is 144 (we have 12 disciples and they have 12 disciples).
• God gives us a mentor. We must be faithful protégés.
• Are you striving to reach our goal of 144? The enemy works hard to stagnate us.
• Maintaining means stagnation or another word is stinking.
• Our exit in life will live longer than our entry.
• When Paul writes lawfully in verse 5, he also means having the right attitude.
• You cannot be a Christian leader and stop striving.
• We must push ourselves and push our people.
