 We should expect a greater anointing on our lives.
 People have minds that have not been renewed. Therefore, you cannot take them where they need to go.

Decision-Change-Transition-Transformation

• You should not be saved for many years and not know anything.
• Some time in prayer is not enough. Prayer is important, but we must apply the transition process to prayer.
• G12 with prayer helps take men/women to victory.
• There is a saying “Work like it’s all up to you and pray like it’s all up to God.”
• A spirit of selfishness puts God on the 2nd, 3rd, or 4th burner.
• Some men/women will not move to the level of greatness until they get through the process of transition.
• We need to get off our butts!
• The renewal of our mind is necessary to get through the transition process.

Hosea 4:6
6My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.

• Our minds must be renewed.
• Some time we reject knowledge with excuses. This occurs when our priorities are mixed up.
• We must show patience when helping people go through the transition process.
• Satan fights our forward progress.
• We don’t know all of the struggles that Satan threw at the children of Israel after they left Egypt that caused them to deviate from the plan that God had for them.
• We are here to keep men/women focused and on track.

Isaiah 5:13
13Therefore my people are gone into captivity, because they have no knowledge: and their honourable men are famished, and their multitude dried up with thirst.

• Satan fights men/women from making a commitment to God.
• Our priority should be to move forward to God.
• God wants us to be educated in the Word (renewal of the mind).
• You can be a good man/woman. Good and ignorant.
• We have a responsibility to the world to help save those that are lost.
• We should have our 144. We need to take our responsibility to another level.

Hebrew 5:11-14
11Of whom we have many things to say, and hard to be uttered, seeing ye are dull of hearing. 12For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat. 13For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe. 14But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.

• We should be matured.
• Dull of hearing refers to lack of perception or recognition. It also refers to being slow to learn. This goes back to the renewing of our minds. We must have growth in our spiritual lives.
• When you should be at an advanced stage of knowledge, you find yourself in kindergarten instead of college.
• If we understood righteousness, we would understand why we need to grow up.
• We should read the Bible each day, just like we should exercise each day.

I Corinthians 3:1-3
1And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Christ. 2I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able to bear it, neither yet now are ye able. 3For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men?

• The scripture talks about our spiritual man being unable to handle certain things because of immaturity.
• When you are too immature you are easily offended and easily get into strife.
• The carnal nature still dominates. That is why prayer cannot be the only thing we utilize.
• We must help people through the transition process.
• We must be consistent with our open cell and closed cell.
• We must be growing and feeding ourselves.
• God cannot fully use a carnal spiritual babe when that person has so many issues themselves.
