2. There is a generation inside of you (turn to your neighbor and say, “I got it, did you get it”)

a. Some of you need to get pregnant with the vision

i. Turn to the person next to you and say, “You need to get pregnant”

1. The vision of making twelve disciples who will each make twelve disciples

b. Some of you feel like this woman, “wash out”, “ a has been”, prominence but no fruit.

i. You are not going to bear anything in your life unless you get pregnant with it.

1. Are you dead and barren with no vision for making disciples

3. God has a season for you (v. 16)

a. When you make room for God in your house, there is an appointed time when what was impossible for you, now becomes possible

b. God is never late when you open the gate of your home

1. the church of the frozen chosen, where you come out more cold than when you came in!

ii. Be careful of allowing dead religion to touch your family

1. Gehazi went through the motions, but had no unction

a. STORY OF THE CHILD DEMON POSSESS AND THE UNIVERSAL CHURCH OF GOD

b. Dead religion tells you: “we tried it before but it didn’t work” (v.31), Dead religion says, “our neighborhood is dead, it will never change”, “we been here for years, you young preachers what can you do?”

i. Elisha never told him to return – Dead religion always quits too soon on souls

ii. Some of you who are listening to this tape, if you are in a dead church – run!

6. Shut the Door (v. 21, 33)

a. There are people who don’t belong at this point of your life in your home
