# The Father is Looking for Ones Like These
# Symposium: "Worship With Spirit"
## When Seeking to Understand Jehovah's Direction
Jehovah's spirit works like GPS to guide our paths

**1 Cor 2: 10-13** - 10 For it is to us God has revealed them through his spirit, for the spirit searches into all things, even the deep things of God.11 For who among men knows the things of a man except the man’s spirit within him? So, too, no one has come to know the things of God except the spirit of God.12 Now we received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit that is from God, so that we might know the things that have been kindly given us by God. 13 These things we also speak, not with words taught by human wisdom, but with those taught by the spirit, as we explain spiritual matters with spiritual words.
	Jehovah uses his spirit to reveal matters to his servents

If you want Jehovah's spirit in your life, pray for it
	Pray before you read the bible, then work in harmony with that prayer and meditate on what your reading
Jehovah's spirit also works through another channel, the spiritual food provided by the faithul and discreet slave. 
	Primary ingredients are the bible. 

**Isa 48:17** - 17 This is what Jehovah says, your Repurchaser, the Holy One of Israel: “I, Jehovah, am your God, The One teaching you to benefit yourself, The One guiding you in the way you should walk.
	Jehovah knows where we need to go and what to be, we need to trust in his words instead of second guessing them. He always has our best interest in mind.

**John 14:26** - 26 But the helper, the holy spirit, which the Father will send in my name, that one will teach you all things and bring back to your minds all the things I told you.
	Spirit can help us remember things that we read before that applies to a certain situation we may be facing




## When Coping With Discouragement
Bible Examples: Rebekkah, Job, Elijah

**Romans 12:11** - 11 Be industrious, not lazy. Be aglow with the spirit. Slave for Jehovah.
	We need to be aglow with the spirit in order for it to help us overcome discouragement

Can also rely on mature Christians for help

Elders: Need to be close to the friends. Spend time with them in the ministry, before and after the ministry, and outside of the congregation



## When Reaching Out to Do More

Rely on Jehovah's spirit by praying to Jehovah and acting on our prayers.
	Personal Study

**Acts 13:2** - 2 As they were ministering to Jehovah and fasting, the holy spirit said: “Set aside for me Barʹna·bas and Saul for the work to which I have called them.”
	They recieved an assignment to preach in foreign lands

**Acts 16:6-10** - 6 Moreover, they traveled through Phrygʹi·a and the country of Ga·laʹti·a, because they were forbidden by the holy spirit to speak the word in the province of Asia.7 Further, when they came down to Mysʹi·a, they made efforts to go into Bi·thynʹi·a, but the spirit of Jesus did not permit them.8 So they passed by Mysʹi·a and came down to Troʹas.9 And during the night a vision appeared to Paul—a Mac·e·doʹni·an man was standing there urging him and saying: “Step over into Mac·e·doʹni·a and help us.”10 As soon as he had seen the vision, we tried to go into Mac·e·doʹni·a, drawing the conclusion that God had summoned us to declare the good news to them.
	Paul and Barnabas had a route a plans and stuff, but upon trying to execute it, they were blocked repeatedly by Jehovah's spirit. Finally they recieved a vision telling them where to go. They only recieved direcion after they were already in Asia, and after they had failed multiple times. They didn't give up, so we don't give up. We may have an idea of what we want to do, but if we keep hitting roadblocks, we need to keep pivoting.

How can we seek Jehovah's Guidance?
	1. Pray
	2. Act on our Prayer

**Isa 3:10** - 10 Tell the righteous that it will go well for them; They will be rewarded for what they do.
	Jehovah will reward us for all of our efforts.

# How We 'Make The Truth Manifest'
I spent most of this talk fixing my Assembly link mistake, so notes will be lacking

We can make the truth manifest in two ways:
- Living the Truth // Conduct
- Teaching the Truth // Ministry

Our conduct can give a powerful witness. It might push away some people, but those with the right heart it will draw

**2 Cor 4:2** - 2 But we have renounced the shameful, underhanded things, not walking with cunning or adulterating the word of God; but by making the truth manifest, we recommend ourselves to every human conscience in the sight of God.
	We do not walk with cunning or adulturate the word of God. What we teach much be accurate, and must be in harmony with what the Bible teaches. 
	This means truly studying the scriptures, understanding their meaning and application, and this will result in using the bible effectivley in the ministry.
# The Meaning of Your Baptism
**1 Peter 3:20** - 20 who had formerly been disobedient when God was patiently waiting in Noah’s day, while the ark was being constructed, in which a few people, that is, eight souls, were carried safely through the water.
	Noah and his family had to put a lot of faith in Jehovah.

**1 Peter 3:21** - 21 Baptism, which corresponds to this, is also now saving you (not by the removing of the filth of the flesh, but by the request to God for a good conscience), through the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
	Faith saved Noah and his family. Baptism is saving our lives.

**1 Cor 10:1**,2 -  1 Now I want you to know, brothers, that our forefathers were all under the cloud and all passed through the sea 2 and all got baptized into Moses by means of the cloud and of the sea,
	Isrealistes were baptized through Moses. They also needed faith and trust, trapped between the sea and phraroh. 

**Luke 1:16,17** - 16 and he will turn back many of the sons of Israel to Jehovah their God.17 Also, he will go ahead of him with E·liʹjah’s spirit and power, to turn back the hearts of fathers to children and the disobedient ones to the practical wisdom of righteous ones, in order to get ready for Jehovah a prepared people.”
&
**Actus 19:4** - 4 Paul said: “John baptized with the baptism in symbol of repentance, telling the people to believe in the one coming after him, that is, in Jesus.”
	Johns baptism was a symbol of repentence against sins of the Mosaic Law. It also served as a softening of their hearts to prepare them for the coming of Jesus

Jesus didn't NEED to get baptized, but his baptism was a visible sign that he would do Jehovah's will, no matter what.

**Malachi 3:17** - 17 “And they will be mine,” says Jehovah of armies, “in the day when I produce a special property. I will show them compassion, just as a man shows compassion to his son who serves him.
	To Jehovah, we are special. We are his "Special Property".


# How Can We Know the Difference Between Right and Wrong?

Most people follow the popular opinion, or follow their heart when making desicions. This is incorrect.

**Prov 14:12** - 12 There is a way that seems right to a man, But in the end it leads to death.
	Things may seem right, but that does not neccesarily mean it is right. 

**Prov 3:32** - 32 For Jehovah detests a devious person, But His close friendship is with the upright.
	Jehovah has close friendship with those who do what is right

CLEANING



# Symposium "Worship With ... Truth"
## In the Family
**Prov 24:3** - 3 By wisdom a house is built up, And by discernment it is made secure.
	A strong marrige is built on wisdom, not emotion. This is biblical wisdom
**Eph 5:33** - 33 Nevertheless, each one of you must love his wife as he does himself; on the other hand, the wife should have deep respect for her husband.
	Two ingredients in a succesful marrige are love and respect
Spiritual communication is especially important, as it keeps Jehovah at the center of a marrige.

## In a Divided World

**John 18:36,37** - 36 Jesus answered: “My Kingdom is no part of this world. If my Kingdom were part of this world, my attendants would have fought that I should not be handed over to the Jews. But as it is, my Kingdom is not from this source.” 37 So Pilate said to him: “Well, then, are you a king?” Jesus answered: “You yourself are saying that I am a king. For this I have been born, and for this I have come into the world, that I should bear witness to the truth. Everyone who is on the side of the truth listens to my voice.”
	Jesus stated that his Kingdom is no part of this world, and that he and his followers would be followers of Truth

**1John 5:19** - 19 We know that we originate with God, but the whole world is lying in the power of the wicked one.
	This world policital systems are directly under Satans control. We want no part in that.

**John 17:16** - 16 They are no part of the world, just as I am no part of the world.
	Jesus followers are no part of this world, and have nothing to do with the political system

**Isa 9:7** - 7 To the increase of his rulership And to peace, there will be no end, On the throne of David and on his kingdom In order to establish it firmly and to sustain it Through justice and righteousness, From now on and forever. The zeal of Jehovah of armies will do this.
	Only Gods Kingdom can bring true justice to the planet

**John 14:30** - 30 I will not speak with you much more, for the ruler of the world is coming, and he has no hold on me.
	Satan had no claim on Jesus, no hold on him. Jesus instead was wholly devoted to Jehovah. We should imitate Jesus


## In Times of Economic Hardship

**Heb 13:5,6** - 5 Let your way of life be free of the love of money, while you are content with the present things. For he has said: “I will never leave you, and I will never abandon you.” 6 So that we may be of good courage and say: “Jehovah is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?”
	We are free of the desire to be rich are satified with what we have, in doing so Jehovah will take care of us, and make sure we're going to be fine

**Heb 18:18** - 18 Keep praying for us, for we trust we have an honest conscience, as we wish to conduct ourselves honestly in all things.
	Conduct ourselves honestly in all things

# Buy Truth and Never Sell It
**Prov 23:23** - 23 Buy truth and never sell it, Also wisdom and discipline and understanding.
	Theme Scripture

**1 Cor 6:9,11** - 9 Or do you not know that unrighteous people will not inherit God’s Kingdom? Do not be misled. Those who are sexually immoral, idolaters, adulterers, men who submit to homosexual acts, men who practice homosexuality, 11 And yet that is what some of you were. But you have been washed clean; you have been sanctified; you have been declared righteous in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and with the spirit of our God.
	Truth was so valuable to some, that they completely changed their lifestyle to match what Jehovah expected of them

**Phill 3:8** - 8 What is more, I do indeed also consider all things to be loss on account of the excelling value of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord. For his sake I have taken the loss of all things and I consider them as a lot of refuse, that I may gain Christ
	Paul considered all the things he left behind as refuse compared to the truth he gained through Jesus.

**Luke 23:23** - 23 At this they became insistent, demanding with loud voices that he be executed, and their voices prevailed.
	- Even though Jesus was innocent, there were loud voices that demanded his death, and they won out. Popular opinions today might have very loud voices that support it, but likely are not correct.

**John 14:21** - 21 Whoever has my commandments and observes them is the one who loves me. In turn, whoever loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him and will clearly show myself to him.”
	If we buy truth and never sell it, both Jehovah and Jesus will love us. They will never forget all we've done to buy Truth.
