Text: John 4:46-54 and Various
Three Types of People
People Who Serve
1. They serve God by serving people. "God, what is my assignment for today?"
2. They see God's blessings as something promised.
3. They report mostly positive things about people.
People Who Work
1. Their priorities come from people. "What do you want me to do?"
2. Their report is both negative and positive.
3. Limited steadiness.
People Who Wait to be Served
1. They wait to be served. They come into the house, sit down and watch TV, and don't lift a finger to help with any of the work.
2. Mostly negative or under-handedly positive. "I bought that dress five years ago."
3. Correction is not heard or received.
4. Full of pride and will change in an instant.
The man in this chapter sought out Jesus when he heard he was in town. He was moved by what he:
1. Heard
2. Saw
3. Felt
His approach was based on need.
There's a higher place that the Spirit of God will lead you to. Seed. The woman with the issue of blood in Mark 5:25-34 moved when she heard about Jesus. Although she was in a desperate situation, she allowed what she heard to go deep into her heart. Her actions were based on faith, while the man's actions were based on sight.
