People Can't God Can

PEOPLE CAN’T, GOD CAN

INTRO: PHILLIPPIANS 4:13

1: I CAN DO ALL THINGS THROUGH CHRIST WHICH STRENGTHENS ME.

A) IS THIS A TRUE STATEMENT TO YOU

B) DO YOU BELIEVE THAT ALL THINGS CAN BE DONE

C) MOST PEOPLE DON’T

POINT: PEOPLE TELL US WHAT WE CAN DO WHAT WE CAN’T DO, THAT’S TOO BIG FOR YOU SON, OR YOU DON’T HAVE ENOUGH EXPERIENCE, OR YOU’RE TOO OLD TOO SMALL. PEOPLE CANNOT DEFINE US AND CAUSE US TO BE WHAT THEY THINK WE ARE!!!

2: UNLESS WE LISTEN

A) SOME PEOPLE NEVER TRY BECAUSE SO MANY PEOPLE HAVE TOLD THEM THEY CAN’T

B) IT WON’T WORK

C) I’VE NEVER SEEN OR HEARD OF ANYHTING LIKE THAT IT’LL PROBABLY JUST BE A MISTAKE IF YOU TRY

POINT: WE HAVE TO LISTEN TO GOD HE IS A JEALOUS GOD. HE SHOULD HAVE OUR FULL ATTENTION AND DEVOTION IN ANYHTING WE ATTEMPT FOR HIS GLORY. LISTEN TO HIM NOT TO EVERYBODY ELSE!!!!!!

BODY: CLAIM IT!!!!!!!!

1: I CAN DO IT

A) NO MATTER HOW OUT OF THE BOX IT MAY SEEM

B) PEOPLE CAN’T DEFINE AND DETERMINE MY DESTINY

C) JESUS CHRIST WITHIN ME ALLOWS ME TO HAVE ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES

POINT: SOMETIMES WE TRY AND FAIL THIS IS NOT A CHANCE TO QUIT ANF GIVE UP BUT BETTER YET A CHANCE TO GET UP AND TRY HARDER. SOMETIMES FAILURE IS JUST THE PREPRATORY WORK OF A GREATER BLESSING AND WORK GOD IS GONNA PERFORM IN YOUR LIFE.

2: ISAIAH 54:17

A) NO WEAPON, NO TONGUE,

B) LISTEN TO THE WORDS

C) NOT A PRIDEFUL CLAIM FULL OF ARROGANCE

D) THIS IS A STATEMENT OF CONFIDENCE AND SECURITY

E) GOD STATES IT THAT WAY TO ENSTILL JUST THAT IN HIS SERVANTS

POINT: ALL THE BATTLES ALL THE HARD TIMES, MONEY’S SHORT THIS WEEK, NO GROCERIES, CAR BROKE DOWN, KIDS SICK, FEEL LIKE IT’S COMING FROM EVERY DIRECTION, NOTHING CAN SEPARATE YOU FROM GOD’S LOVE.

CLOSING: PUT CHRIST IN EVERYTHING

1: INVITE HIM IN

A) MY EYES

B) MY EARS

C) MY MOUTH

D) MY MIND

E) MY HEART

F) MY SOUL

POINT: WHEN JESUS IS NOT IN MY EYES I SEE OR LOOK AT THINGS I SHOULDN’T, MY EARS DON’T LISTEN TO THE RIGHT THINGS, MY MOUTH NEVER SAYS THE RIGHT THING, MY MIND IS NEVER IN THE RIGHT PLACE, I CAN’T LOVE BECAUSE MY HEART IS NEVER IN THE RIGHT CONDITION, AND MY SOUL IS TIRED AND WEARY FROM ALL THE TROUBLE THAT RESTS UPON IT WHEN I DON’T INVITE JESUS IN.

2: WE CAN DO ANYTHING

A) IN CHRIST

B) WITH CHRIST

C) FOR CHRIST

D) WHY DID THE FOUNDING FATHER’S SAY IN GOD WE TRUST

POINT: THEY KNEW AND BELIEVED THE COULD DO ANYHTHING THROUGH CHRIST EVEN DEFY AND OVERTHROW THE GREATEST KINGDOM IN THE KNOWN WORLD. WHY? BECAUSE I CAN DO ALL THINGS THROUGH CHRIST WHICH STRENGTHENS ME.

FINAL THOUGHT: DON’T LET PEOPLE DECIDE WHO OR WHAT YOU ARE. YOU SEEK GOD IN THAT MATTER AND ALWAYS BE LOOKING FOR A WAY TO SERVE HIM IN YOUR EVERYDAY LIFE.
