    This sermon idea came from a sermon preached by my dear friend Eric Henderson.

    The Strength to Comprehend God’s Love Text: Ephesians 3:14–21 Introduction: Trying to Measure the Immeasurable You know, we humans like to measure things. It’s in our nature.

     | 9,884 views

    When we don’t understand what God is doing in our lives it is important that we wait upon the Lord instead of drawing quick conclusions about God’s activity and character.

    “Waiting On An Answer” Habakkuk 1:12-2:1 There have been so many times that I have run into problems, not understood what was going on in my life, or have been confused about what was happening to my friends or family members and have thought to myself – “Lord, if You would just explain all of ...read more

    Jesus’ answer reveals that we have obligations both to man and God. Are we aware of our obligations toward God? What do we really owe Him? Our life - time, tithe, talents, and sharing our faith, among other things.

    All of us have payments to make. All of us have obligations to meet. It is a way of life. • We owe for the car. We owe for the house. We owe for the fridge. • A bumper sticker reads, “We owe, we owe, so off to work we go.” • We’ve got to work because we’ve so much to pay up. Along with the ...read more

     | 8,706 views

    God is not scrambling about trying to work out His plan or make last minute corrections. When we fumble the ball or tragedy occurs, God’s plan has not slipped a gear. The tragedy is a part of God’s plan for our faith to grow and for His glory.

    Opening illustration: Consider Charles Colson, the aide to Richard Nixon who was sent to jail for Watergate. As a result of his experience as a convicted felon, Colson founded Prison Fellowship, now the world’s largest Christian outreach to prisoners and their families.

    Are you in His will?

    The Will of God We have made the will of God into something mystical and foggy. Therefore we are always looking for it, guessing about it, worrying that we missed, etc. I believe that we miss the specific will of God in our lives because we are ignorant or disobedient to His general will.
