    Paul’s explanation of our hope in Jesus Christ

    Intro: why is Easter,(Resurrection Sunday) the most important day of the year.

    Know the gifts which God has given you, these being three (purpose, prayer, and love) from a list of thousands, and go, do the work of God in your life, whatever God is calling you to do, always remaining humble in the presence of such extravagence.

    HUMILITY: A pastor was asked to speak for a certain charitable organization. After the meeting the program chairperson handed the pastor a check. “Oh, I couldn’t take this,” the pastor said with some embarrassment. “I appreciate the honor of being asked to speak.

    Imagine her great faith! By the way, Faith does not always face the facts; but I find that it never gives up. Anybody else would have let the circumstances stop them but not this lady.

    Here is a motivational message that will drive home the point that pursuing excellence is not always fun, and may not bring instant results. However, the end result (if found in Christ) is worth more than gold.

    The proof of your DESIRE is in your PURSUIT! Daniel 1:8-17 Daniel 3:13-18 Four theorems from the text 1. The pursuit of excellence will most always seem foreign to those on the OUTSIDE looking IN!

    Not everything that happens to us is always good, but if we love God and are obedient to His purpose for our lives, eventually He works out everything in our lives for His glory and for our good.

    Our God is a loving God. Though he is often forced through our disobedience to bring judgement, he always makes a way for us to repent and come back to him. Jesus is that way.
