• We are eternal beings. We are going to spend eternity in heaven or hell.
• You cannot pursue God’s presence without God’s presence pursuing you.” Pastor Phillip Goudeaux
• You cannot go after God without God delivering you.

Hosea 10:2
2Their heart is divided; now shall they be found faulty: he shall break down their altars, he shall spoil their images.
• Sow to yourselves and break up fallow ground so that the Word of God can be planted.
• You cannot keep doing the same thing and expect different results - that is called insanity. We need to break up fallow ground.

II Chronicles 7:14
14If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
• CCC will begin a 10-day fast September 19 through September 28, 2010.
o We will fast each day until 6:00 p.m.
o You may consume light liquids.
o We are seeking God’s face.
• Humble means to bend the knees.
o The time we fast there is no sex.
o We are here to stand in the gap and seek His face (not His hands).
o We need to get rid of sins and secret sins.
• “Heal the land” includes our spouses, children, finances, body, etc.
• Once you get it right with God, God makes it right with you.
• If you want something you have never had before, you must do something you have not done before.

Matthew 26:36-42
36Then cometh Jesus with them unto a place called Gethsemane, and saith unto the disciples, Sit ye here, while I go and pray yonder. 37And he took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and began to be sorrowful and very heavy. 38Then saith he unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto death: tarry ye here, and watch with me. 39And he went a little farther, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt. 40And he cometh unto the disciples, and findeth them asleep, and saith unto Peter, What, could ye not watch with me one hour? 41Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak. 42He went away again the second time, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if this cup may not pass away from me, except I drink it, thy will be done.

• Flesh never wants to cooperate with God.
• G12 is about surrendering to the will of God.

G12 Life Group Notes– September 12, 2010–6:30 a.m. Pastor Goudeaux (Pg 2 of 2)

• God intended us to be our brother’s keeper. We should not let a brother or sister get saved and then have to fight the force of Satan by themselves.
• We must have the spirit of G12 otherwise, we will make excuses.
• There is a difference between knowing the mechanics, verses having the spirit. For example, there is a spirit in giving; however, you can make it mechanical.
• The one who has the spirit is the one that is going to be blessed.

Genesis 4:1-8
1And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the LORD. 2And she again bare his brother Abel. And Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground. 3And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the LORD. 4And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof. And the LORD had respect unto Abel and to his offering: 5But unto Cain and to his offering he had not respect. And Cain was very wroth, and his countenance fell. 6And the LORD said unto Cain, Why art thou wroth? and why is thy countenance fallen? 7If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door. And unto thee shall be his desire, and thou shalt rule over him. 8And Cain talked with Abel his brother: and it came to pass, when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and slew him.

• Verse 3, “in the process of time” means God had told them what to do. Abel had the spirit.

Hebrews 11:4
4By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and by it he being dead yet speaketh.

Hebrews 12:1-4
1Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, 2Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God. 3For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds. 4Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin.

• Joy came to Jesus when He caught the spirit.
• “Despising the shame” Jesus was able to think lightly of His sacrifice because He had the spirit and understood what God had for Him.
• When we get the spirit of G12, we will not consider it drudgery.
