WORLDVIEW FROM MEMORY
Jesus' Worldview begins developing during the first 12 years of His life and continued to develop throughout His life in the world. JESUS' WORLDVIEW: ENEMY By the start of Jesus' ministry He was strongly aware that God was His Father and He was "GOD'S SON" (Jn 10:36 NI). We do not have the details when and how but by that time Jesus knew God loved Him "BEFORE THE CREATION OF THE WORLD" (Jn 17:24 NI) and Jesus, who was born as a baby and grew up like all humans grow up, remembered He "SAW SATAN FALL LIKE LIGHTNING FROM HEAVEN" (Lk 10:18 NI). Jesus, who was tempted by Satan, knows the enemy is real. Jesus also makes it clear that He gave us "AUTHORITY … OVER ALL THE POWER OF THE ENEMY" (Lk 10:19 NKJ) and we can "CAST OUT DEMONS" (Mk 16:17 NKJ) in His name. Jesus Worldview is Satan or demons are real and we have authority over then.
Have the Worldview Satan or demons are real and we have authority over them.
JESUS' WORLDVIEW: BIBLICAL EVENTS Many Christians in many Christian religions who are considered highly educated will use terms like "myth", "legend" etc concerning stories in the bible implying that they are not sure the stories are true. Jesus remembered and quoted God from the creation story (Ge 2:24) "…THE TWO WILL BECOME ONE" (Mt 19:4 GN). Jesus talked about "THE DAYS OF NOAH" (Mt 24:37 NI) and the flood. Jesus remembered details not recorded in scriptures like "PEOPLE WERE EATING AND DRINKING, MARRYING AND GIVING IN MARRIAGE, UP TO THE DAY NOAH ENTERED THE ARK" (Mt 24:38 NI) before the bad people were taken away by the flood. Jesus knew the story about "JONAH WAS THREE DAYS AND THREE NIGHTS IN THE BELLY OF A HUGE FISH" (Mt 12:40 NI) was true. Jesus' Worldview is the stories in the bible are true.
Have the Worldview the stories in the bible are true, believing the bible the way it is written.
Jesus Worldview summary:
Have the Worldview the most important thing is to do what God wants.
Have the Worldview Satan or demons are real and we have authority over them.
Have the Worldview the stories in the bible are true, believing the bible the way it is written.

MARRIAGE WORKSHOP MOMENT
God stated in Genesis 2:24 and Jesus quoted it in Mark 10:8 (NIV) that when two people get married "…the two will become one…". Functioning as one and being a team of two that works together is one of the main things we help people accomplish in our workshop. From God's viewpoint, it appears He treats married couples as one. In the story of Job, Satan was not allowed to kill Job and all of his family members were destroyed but not his wife (Job 1-2:9). To become one spiritually, it is good for a couple to talk about their spiritual views. If you have different views it is good to discuss them and may be a good time to use the Speaker Listener Technique. Unlike most discussions in your marriage, just because you as a couple agree doesn't make it correct before God. It is good to support your opinions with what Jesus or God said. It is good for you to have family prayers together, worship God together in the same church, and even share a ministry together. That may sound heavy but I knew a couple who had no children and had been married over twenty years who helped in the nursery together in a large church. That was a nice way to share a ministry together.
The Better Half "When your partner won't support your efforts to make your marriage better" Without your spouse's support to improve your marriage, you can still pray daily for God's will to be done in each of your lives and your marriage ("all things are possible with God", Mark 10:27 NIV). From God's viewpoint it appears He treats married couples as one. In the story of Job, Satan was not allowed to hurt Job and all of his family members were destroyed but not his wife, who did not appear to be a supportive spouse. For you to function as one as a couple does require both of you to make an effort. You should develop your personal relationship with God, as that is an individual thing. In addition to praying for your spouse and encouraging them to be closer to God you can live your life as a good example. It may be hard to encourage your spouse to get closer to God, if you do not set a godly example. When a spouse calls "time out", it is an opportunity for a couple to calm down before continuing the conversation at a later time (anywhere from an hour to no later than the next day) using the Speaker Listener Technique. Initially after calling time out it is an opportunity to take authority over the enemy and pray for the marriage. Example: "In the name of Jesus I command you demons to shut up and leave our marriage and not return" "Thank you God for helping our marriage be in Your will and guiding us in our relationship, in Jesus name, amen." When a spouse will not cooperate, you can still take authority over the enemy and pray for your marriage.
