Rebuilding from the Ruins
Message Notes
- 1. Listen to God’s prompting.
- Promptings will seldom be something you’re 100% sure about.
- Promptings will never be something that strokes your ego.
- Promptings will never contradict the Bible.
- Obeying promptings of God will always make a positive difference!
- 2. Learn from God’s Picture – the Temple
- The Temple was a reminder of God’s proximity.
- The Temple reminded people of a problem: our sin
- 3. Expect Resistance
- Any time you try to do anything for God you can count on opposition.
- 4. Pay attention to your spiritual priorities.
- The people of Israel became distracted by their own agenda and de-prioritized God’s agenda.
- 5. Acknowledge God’s Pro-Activity
- If you put God first, all those second things begin to fall into order.
- “When we put first things first, we get second things thrown in. But when we put second things first, we lose first and second things.” – C.S. Lewis
