a resolution is defined as a firm decision to do or not do something.
the word finds its root from the term resolute which means admirably purposeful, determined and unwavering.
so the question is what are we making a firm decision to do in this coming year?
what is it that we are going to be purposeful, determined and unwavering about?
Here are the 3 Resolutions for GN in the year 2010
1. Recognition- of who God is, and who God is to you, identifying what place He who holds in your life
it is very easy to say I love God, I am a Christian but a lot of the time that is said without a true recognition of who God really is.
And beyond that, beyond knowing who God is, knowing who God is in your life, knowing His son Jesus Christ and the part that he plays in your life.
we're not talking about Jesus being your homeboy, we're talking a true life altering knowledge of who the Son of God truly is
2. Growth- in our personal lives and as a group
Growing together as a group who chooses to turn our backs on the culture of this world, choosing to march forward in the Kingdom of God.
Determined not to walk through life like everyone else but rather to lead a radical lifestyle with Christ at the center.
3. Influence- its not enough to know God and to have growth in our own personal lives if that's where it ends.
this generation is a generation of influence
It isnt enough for us to rebel as a generation, that's been done before, what we are called to do is to inflict change.
our generation leads the way in making change in government in culture and in our society, but often for all the wrong reasons, its time for us to stand up and inflict change
to become that generation spoken about in
Psalm 24:6
"Such is the generation of those who seek him,
who seek your face, O God of Jacob"
