We begin a new series this morning that dives into the book of Psalms and we will take a look at 17 different Psalms from now through August.
The Direction to Take: Trust in the Lord With All We Are This is one is so easy to say – well of course I trust the Lord. Are you truly trusting the Lord with everything you are, with your whole heart? When is the last time you took a risk to obey Christ? The last time you took that leap of faith and just trusted?
We move to the third message today and that is what is the path that God will direct – what path do I need to put my life on today that will assure me I am on the right one? This Scripture includes perhaps the 2 most recognizable verse in Proverbs, so let’s not rush over these or any other of the verses here. In each of these sections we see there is a motivation for following the Lord, there is a dividend if you will and also a danger to avoid as we take the right direction, most are given and a few are implied. Let’s take a look at two verses at a time today and how they apply to our lives. This is obviously very applicable to our graduates today but just as relevant for the rest of us.
God is longing to do a fresh work in our land, our world, nation, state, and our community, but in order for that to happen we must be willing. We must be willing to the be the church that He wants us to become and for that to happen we as individuals must be the kind of people that He can use. Great question this morning: Do you want God to Use You! To make an eternal difference, to make an impact for the Gospel, to have an influence, to live in such a way that He uses you to bring about change in your school, your neighborhood, your workplace, your home, your family?
The call to grow includes fleeing from the carnal, following Christ and fighting the good fight of faith.
The Gain = Godliness + Contentment. See also Vs 6,2 Corinthians 3:5, 9:8; Philippians 4:11-13; Proverbs 30:8-9; Ecclesiastes 5:10
So we are called to OutLive Our Lives and we will talk over the next 4weeks of how we are called to that from 1 Timothy 6 and we add the description a Giving and Growing Emphasis.
