POINTS:

• We look to the IF I’s, IF Only’s, and IF They’s to meet our needs.

• When we drink of the Spirit of God, a drink goes in and a river comes out.

• Mountains move out of the way for rivers.

• Courage of Contemplation: Looking beneath the surface.

• The current of a river is dictated by what is happening beneath the surface.

• Courage of Contentment: Celebrate what you have and trust God with what you don’t.

• Who are you running to for a drink?

• Courage of Confidence: Being confident in your identity in Christ.

• Discouragement: A lack of confidence or enthusiasm.

• Courage for Community: The river inside you is meant for someone else.

• God has designed us for IMPACT!
