Kingdom Manifestation
The Benefits of Process to the Kingdom Pt.7

We are finally at the end of this series on process. I pray that the lessons have been beneficial to you. This month, we are going to look at how process provokes you to the next level. If we are part of God's Kingdom, there is always a new level. And as Kingdom citizens, we should want to see all of our fellow citizens continue to move to a higher level as well. We will also be looking at how process qualifies you for manifestation.

10. Process provokes - us to the next level, keeps us unsatisfied

A.    Process will provoke you to encourage others to push for a higher level.

Heb.10:24 NIV "And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds,”

2 Tim.4:2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine."

1 Th.5:11 NLT "So encourage each other and build each other up, just as you are already doing.”

B.    Process brings you to a place of recognizing that there is always a higher level to attain. You can’t stay where you are. The Kingdom of God is always increasing.

Phil.3:14 "I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.”

1 Cor.9:24 "Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize.

11. Process qualifies – you for the manifestation as sons of God.

A. Process will cause you to operate like God. God speaks to things. What He speaks manifest. We have to do the same thing. We speak God’s Word and we expect it to manifest. 

John 1:12 “But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:”

Mark 11:24 “Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.”

B. You must be led by the Holy Spirit to be a son of God. If you are in the body of Christ, but you are a carnal Christian, you are not yet considered a son of God. You may be a child of God, but sons are led.

Romans 8:14 “For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.”

C. God is not going to allow manifestation to take place in the life of those who do not qualify for it. God is the Ultimate Steward. He does not allow waste in His Kingdom

Matthew 13:10-13 NIV “The disciples came to him and asked, “Why do you speak to the people in parables?” He replied, “Because the knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven has been given to you, but not to them. Whoever has will be given more, and they will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what they have will be taken from them. This is why I speak to them in parables: “Though seeing, they do not see;
though hearing, they do not hear or understand.”

D. Process will help you get beyond the elementary stage.
    
Hebrews 6:1 NLT “So let us stop going over the basic teachings about Christ again and again. Let us go on instead and become mature in our understanding. Surely we don’t need to start again with the fundamental importance of repenting from evil deeds and placing our faith in God.”

E. When you know how to operate as a son, you understand that your manifestation was a result of God working through you, not by your hard work and effort.

Proverbs 10:22 GWT “It is the LORD's blessing that makes a person rich, and hard work adds nothing to it.”
