• Matthew 15:13

Key Points

• Paul prays that we would comprehend this:
  • The Father wants to share all He has with us…
    • His power
    • His strength
    • His Spirit
    • His Son
    • His love
• Even though we are rooted and filled with His fullness, He desires to uproot anything that He has not planted.
• Some of us have stumps from our past that need to be removed. These stumps are giving place to the devil and at times producing foul fruit.
• We can co-labor with Jesus to say to these roots/trees/stumps, “Be removed,” by faith in His power and desire to deliver us.
• Bitterness and unforgiveness are in the way of others obtaining grace.
• God desires our hearts to remain tender.

Discussion Questions

1. Have you had “stumps” removed from your past? Can you share the process?
2. How do you personally deal with bitterness?
3. Are there trees planted in your life that you are willing to allow God to uproot?
4. What are you hoping to get from this series?
