Acts 4:31-32 " Shaking this place "

We need to shake up the choir!

We need to shake up the youth group!

We need to shake the sunday school!

We need to shake up this world!

* To shake this place, we must have heart V 32

If you drag in and drag out Church may become a drag.

Many will say my heart is not in it- Many mirriages that way, many relationships that way, many Christians that way.

* A heart full of the Lord

The first Church wasn't the finest Church, but it was a faithful Church.

* A heart full of love

I John 3:18

* To shake this place, we must have hope

Colossians 1:27

* They believed

Faith can move mountains, today we have a problem with the moll hills.

Our problem today is we  just don't believe!

That is why people die and go to Hell......They just don't believe.

That is why people do not have the touch of God....They just don't believe.

That is why people do not live in the fullness of God....They just don't believe

Hebrews 6:19

* They got blessed

They came to Church to Praise, to Pray, and to hear some good Preaching.

Attitude will be reflected in the Action.

* To shake this place, we must have happiness

Many things today get stirred up, not much shaking going on.

We need a good dose of glad, not sad, bad or mad.

Romans 51:12

* Glad to hear the word

They did not endure the word they enjoyed the word.

Look at Nehemiah 8: Just look how the people of God react to the reading of the word of God.

Tears of a tender heart...Weeping...Raising of hands...Humble prayer...Amen!!!!

* Glad to have worship

Psalm 118:24

* To shake this place, we must have a hunger

Matthew 5:6

If we had a hunger for God as much as we have for food...Just think about it.

* A hunger for the savour

If we had a hunger for souls as we do sports and shopping, the church would be full of sinners ready to hear the Word of God.

* A hunger for souls
