Of Whom the World Was Not Worthy
Hebrews 11:32-40

It is hard not to feel like all our efforts were turned to ash this week by the Taliban’s victory,

The question? Is there ever a time when being a Christian is NOT worth it?

The difference between submission and permission is all about who is in charge. Is God in charge…or am I?

You see, we have an enemy. He’s called Satan, and Satan’s desire is to destroy anything that belongs to God.

GOD PAYS ATTENTION when you suffer because of your stand for Jesus. God notices, and He blesses you.

Death for the Christian is the greatest event possible because only death has the ability to break the seal and usher you into inexpressible glory.

If Jesus had not died on the cross THEY (and WE) would have no hope of heaven.

God and the Harlot
Hebrews 11:31

Now, just so we’re clear here…prostitution is a sinful lifestyle.

Matthew the Tax Collector and Simon the Zealot and Rahab the Harlot. That’s what they were known for.

They look to me like someone the shepherd brought home.

So, the spies went to find a place to stay, and they ended up in the home of the prostitute.

The drug dealer told him this: “I’m there when Johnny goes out for a loaf of bread for Mama. I’m there, you’re not. I win, you lose. It’s all about being there.”

The question for you this morning: Do you know what to tell people to be saved?

Josh and the Big Wall
Hebrews 11:30

And that’s exactly what Israel did–and the walls came a tumbling down, the army of Jericho was routed, and Israel burned the city and everything in it.

If God says something happened, it happened–just the way He said it did.

GOD WON THE BATTLE WITHOUT THEIR HELP!!!
God did all the heavy lifting and all they did was show up.

God doesn’t win the battle with people of power; God wins the battle with people of faith.

Because Joshua was a type or image of Christ in the Bible.

Jesus has done all the heavy lifting. He won the victory for us at the cross. He did it all, and all that remains for us to do is SHOW UP.
