     | 249 views

    Pride is one of the deadliest sins that often hides behind a mask of self-confidence or success. It is an exaltation of self above others and, more dangerously, above God.

    Proverbs 29:18 tells us that “where there is no vision people perish”. We as individuals and as the family of God need to have a clear vision like Isaiah. We need to see and understand Who God is, what we are, and what God is calling us to do.

    A Needed Vision Isaiah 6:1-5 Isaiah had an encounter with God that provided Him with a clear vision of God, himself, his people, and his mission.

    I used this sermon for our "Friend Sunday." My main text was Proverbs 18:24, although I used several other texts as time permitted. After a little humor, and prayer I told the illustration about "Mud-sitting."

     | 5,656 views

    Proverbs 24:10 The message Bible says, if you fall to pieces in a crisis, there wasn't much to you in the first place. The intent of that verse is not to condemn us for being weak, but to exhort to toughen up, to stir us up to the action of building ourselves up in the Lord.

    Proverbs 24:10 KJV If thou faint in the day of adversity, thy strength is small. Proverbs 24:10 MSG If you fall to pieces in a crisis, there wasn't much to you in the first place.
