Chipped or Whole
Ecc 3:1 (season, purpose)
Psa 40:1-3
- Heard
- Mury, Feet, Established
- New, Trust
I love that song that talks about Jesus being our friend.
What a friend we have in Jesus all our sins and griefs to bear! What a privilege to carry everything to God in prayer! O what peace we often forget it, O what needless pain we bear, all because we do not carry everything to God in prayer.
- Clean or Dirty
- Psalm 51:10 (clean spirit)
- John 16:33 (peace, tribulation, empty or full)
- Luke 4:4 (bread, word)
- The chorus to fill my cup (Richard E. Blanchard)
- Decorative or Practical
- But what about us as Christians?
- Will we hold up with use?
- How strong is our faith?
- Hebrew 11, has many great faith heroes such as Abel, Cain, Enoch, Noah, Moses, Abraham & Sara. We also are capable of such big things for God but our faith has to be strong. Strong faith helps us survive the weight of this world.
- Heb 11:1 substance, evidence
- Heb 12:2 Jesus
- Luk 17:5 Increase
- If the apostles asked the Lord to increase their faith how much more should we be asking? Increase my faith, Lord.
- Seasonal or Everyday
- Remember what Paul told Timothy?
- 2 Timothy 4:2 season, season
- we can attend church each week & still end up a "seasonal" Christian, only really serving the Lord when we see fit, when we feel like it, or when there's an activity going on at our church that we feel like participating in.
Conclusion: so what kind of cup are you? Phi 1:6 begin, perform, day.
