Sermon Illustrations

Three ways our choice to follow God is like a computer (phone/electric device)

1. We need to stay plugged in to keep our batteries charged.

(prayer, scripture, worship all charge our batteries)

2. We need to keep our Virus Protection up-to-date.

(Sin is as prevalent as viruses on the internet. When we confess and are forgiven, we are recharged, renewed, and operate much better.)

3. We need to back up our files.

(Many things happen in life. But when we leave things in God's hands, we can trust that nothing is lost)
