To make room for something means getting rid of something else that is taking up current room. To prepare Christ room in your heart, go idol hunting. Evict the idols in your heart that are robbing Him of His space. Blaspheme and bulldoze your idols, and make way for the King!
ABOUT THIS SERIES: Advent means "appearance" or "arrival." Most often we associate this with the arrival of the Messiah, the Savior, or even the King. However, it also means the arrival of a Kingdom. But what is the Kingdom of God? Is it here, or is it still to come? When we pray, "Your Kingdom come, Your will be done," what is it that we are praying for, and how do we know when it is upon us? Join us for these four weeks of Advent as we explore what it means for the Kingdom of God to be here, and how we partake in seeing it grow.
God’s design for the local church is to gather His people regularly for daily life in Christ, to be built up, healed, equipped, and matured so that we can go out and spread the aroma of Christ and make disciples of all nations. Until that desired end and goal, we have the challenges of sin, failures, pride, pain, death, laziness, stubbornness, and a litany of other roadblocks. While the church is not perfect, nor is it easy, Jesus models how we are to enter into that messy, difficult, imperfectness, to bring healing and help. And so we submit and ask the Spirit to work through us to do the same, here and now, in our local churches.
