Topic: From Lockdown to Leaping Up Pt. 1
Text: Acts 3:1-8

Man's hunger for freedom is so intense that every opportunity to be free, he grabs it. Mark 5:2-4

There is something worse than physical lockdown. They’re mental and spiritual lockdown.

How to recognize mental lockdown:
The fellow will begin to regard what is far from best as the best that could happen to him. Acts 3:2-3 Beware of your mental enemies.

Enemy 1:
- Being clever; settling for average. 2 Chronicles 1:6-12
He who does not know but knows that he does not know will soon be a wise man.

Enemy 2:
- Good enough is the biggest enemy of greatness. 1 Kings 19:19-21
Elisha had it good enough; the heir to his father's wealth. If he had settled for that, he wouldn't have been the great prophet that he became. 2 Kings 13:14-21

Enemy 3:
- The greatest enemy of all is thinking you are already great. 2Kings 4:8-17
You can be great but incomplete and think that's all to it.

From Lockdown to Leaping Up Starts:
1. When you sense that what you are calling normal is not good enough. Luke 11:1

2. When you become aware that things can be much better. Mark 8:22-24

3. When you realize that God reserves the best for the last then your journey up begins. John 2:1-11, Genesis 24:34-35, 26:12-14

Don't get mentally locked down. The journey to the top starts on your knees. For those who are not born again, this means kneeling down at the foot of the cross and crying for the salvation of your soul.
