Week 5: Honoring God
Welcome! Thanks for being with us this morning! Today we finish the series “NEXT” where we have examined what we are really capable of when Jesus steps into our lives.
"A common lie of the enemy is that success allows fudging." by Dick Brogden
Big idea: Slow down, let Him lead, and give thanks.
Nehemiah TRUSTED GOD AND FOLLOWED HIS PLAN.
Nehemiah 1:10-11 NLT
What do we learn from Nehemiah?
1. His PERSPECTIVE WAS CORRECT.
2. His heart was FOCUSED.
3. He was OBEDIENT.
4. He was HONEST.
Nehemiah 1:5-7 NLT
Nehemiah WAITED AND THEN TOOK ACTION.
Psalms 37:3-7 NLT
Proverbs 19:21 NLT
We all need AARONS AND HURS IN OUR LIVES.
When WE TAKE ACTION in God's timing, WE HONOR HIM.
Response:
1. Do you have trouble waiting for God?
2. Do you need to come before God as Nehemiah did and ask for forgiveness?
3. Contemplate a thankful heart. what does that mean for you?
