Would you rather be a "grasshopper" with the promises and power of God behind you or like a "son of Anak" without the promises and power of God?

Sunday’s sermon only matters if we…Live It Out

Coming off Sunday's sermon on Acts 5, Pastor Aaron encourages us to share the story of Jesus

[Crosswater @CrosswaterCC]

"Therefore the LORD is waiting to show you mercy, and is rising up to show you compassion, for the LORD is a just God. All who wait patiently for Him are happy." - Isaiah 30:18

[Crosswater @CrosswaterCC]

“Evil did its worst, and lost. The cross fell. The tomb emptied. True power rose. The real battle was won!”
- Zack Eswine, “Daily Strength”

[Crosswater @CrosswaterCC]

“God will accomplish His great purpose of making you increasingly like Jesus through His Spirit and by His word. Read the scriptures with a repentant, believing heart, and over time your life will be transformed.”
- Colin Smith, ‘Daily Strength’ devotional

4. Cultivate a deep affection for God in every way (Josh 23:9-11)
“The emphasis is on a relationship of intimacy: ‘I am yours and you are mine!’ God is not just God. He is ‘your’ and ‘my’ God. His passion for us is undying”

[Crosswater @CrosswaterCC]

How to maintain one’s devotion to the Lord

🧵from Sam Storms and Joshua 23 in the “Daily Strength” devotional

1. Give attention to God’s Word (Josh 23:6)
“An unmistakable sign of impending abandonment of God is a diminishing respect for the authority of his word.”

[Crosswater @CrosswaterCC]

3. Attach yourself to God (Josh 23:8)
“To cling to God is to stay so close to him that no sin can get between you and him.”

[Crosswater @CrosswaterCC]

4. You need to worship because your natural tendency is toward self-reliance and stubborn independence

[Crosswater @CrosswaterCC]

2. You need to worship because without it you can forget his calling and begin to live in a spirit of self-preoccupation

[Crosswater @CrosswaterCC]

3. You need to worship because without it you lose a sense of wonder and gratitude and plod through life with blinders on

[Crosswater @CrosswaterCC]

Why you need to worship God, a thread from "If You Want to Walk On Water You've Got To Get Out of the Boat" by @johnortberg

1. You need to worship because without it you can forget that you have a Big God beside you and live in fear

[Crosswater @CrosswaterCC]

“The world thirsts for a different kind of neighbor - not the kind who deny their fellow man, take up their comforts, and follow their dreams - but the kind who deny themselves, take up their crosses and follow Jesus in his mission of loving a weary world to life” - Scott Sauls

[Paul David Tripp @PaulTripp]

You and I will never grow beyond the need of hearing the heart-changing,and life-shaping truths of the gospel of Jesus Christ.
