How to I deal with COVID-19? How do I handle this pain? How do I navigate isolation? When this all clears – what’s next? These are questions we’re all asking right now. And in this message series, we’ll look to the book of Proverbs and the life of Solomon as we discover practical answers to the biggest question of all, “What To Do When You Don’t Know What To Do”.
Proverbs 16:1-3 NLT
Proverbs 16:16-24 NLT
“OVER/UNDER”
01. CONSTRAINTS CAN ACTUALLY BE LIBERATING
Proverbs 16:1-3 We can make our own plans, but the LORD gives the right answer. People may be pure in their own eyes, but the LORD examines their motives. Commit your actions to the LORD, and your plans will succeed.
QUESTION:
What would your life look like – if you actually fully submitted your entire life to God?
02. REBELLION DOESN’T LEAD TO FREEDOM – IT LEADS TO BONDAGE
Proverbs 16:18-20 Pride goes before destruction, and haughtiness before a fall. Better to live humbly with the poor than to share plunder with the proud. Those who listen to instruction will prosper; those who trust the LORD will be joyful.
Romans 13:1-2 NLT
QUOTE:
“We will never be OVER those things that God has set UNDER us…until we learn to be UNDER those things that God has placed OVER us. There is strength through surrender.” - Adrian Rogers
