Experiencing Heaven on Earth

Part 1 of series

July 31st & Aug. 1st, 2010 Pastor Kerry Shook

“Compared to what’s coming, living conditions around here

seem like a stopover in an unfurnished shack, and we’re tired
of it! We’ve been given a glimpse of the real thing, our true
home, our resurrection bodies! The Spirit of God whets our
appetite by giving us a taste of what’s ahead. He puts a little
of heaven in our hearts so that we’ll never settle for less.” 2
Cor. 5:2-5 (Msg)

“Your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in

heaven.” Mat. 6:10 (NIV)

1. DEDICATE
“Elisha replied to her, ‘How can I help you? Tell me, what
do you have in your house?" "Your servant has nothing
there at all,’ she said, ‘except a little oil.’"
2 Kings 4:2 (NIV)

“Look, the highest heavens and the earth and everything

in it all belong to the Lord your God.”
Deut. 10:14 (NLT)
2. GIVE
“Elisha said, ‘Go around and ask all your neighbors for
empty jars. Don't ask for just a few. Then go inside and
shut the door behind you and your sons. Pour oil into all
the jars, and as each is filled, put it to one side."

2 Kings 4:3, 4 (NIV)

"Will a man rob God? Yet you rob me. But you ask, 'How
do we rob you?' ‘In tithes and offerings. You are under a
curse--the whole nation of you--because you are robbing
me. Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there
may be food in my house. Test me in this,’ says the LORD
Almighty, ‘and see if I will not throw open the floodgates
of heaven and pour out so much blessing that you will not
have room enough for it.’” Malachi 3:8-10 (NIV)

3. EXPECT
“She left him and afterward shut the door behind her and
her sons. They brought the jars to her and she kept
pouring. When all the jars were full, she said to her son,
‘Bring me another one.’ But he replied, ‘There is not a jar
left.’ Then the oil stopped flowing.”
2 Kings 4:5-6 (NIV)

“Then call on me when you are in trouble, and I will

rescue you, and you will give me glory.”
Psalm 50:15 (NLT)
