Are you confusing \"movement\" with \"progress\"? Just because you're busy doesn't mean you're going anywhere.
In this convicting message from the Refuel Conference, Evangelist Robbie Mitchell tackles the \"Law of Progression.\" Using the story of Israel in Deuteronomy 2, he explains how a journey that should have taken 11 days ended up taking 38 years because the people became comfortable circling the same mountain.
If you feel like you are in a spiritual rut—experiencing a lot of activity (shofars, tambourines, and meetings) but no actual breakthrough—you might be stuck in a cycle of \"mountain circling\".
Tonight, we learned:
The Trap of Activity: Why \"learning how to have church\" can actually keep you from moving forward in God.
Mountain #1 - Past Failures: Why God doesn't just forgive sin, He forgets it—but you have to let it go, too.
Mountain #2 - Offense & Self-Pity: A hilarious but deadly serious story about \"Granny,\" a jar of gallstones, and a dinner of \"Fried Roasted Preacher\".
Mountain #3 - Other People’s Failures: Why focusing on the hypocrisy of others is a surefire way to halt your own journey.
Dove’s Eyes: The spiritual biological fact that doves have no peripheral vision—and why you need that same \"tunnel vision\" for Jesus.
It’s time to stop looking in the rearview mirror. You have circled this mountain long enough—turn North.
