God Has A Plan For You
Jeremiah 29:11-13

We can follow a someone who believes we can do the task and is willing to work with us all the way.

About the time we are ready to give up, along comes the Master who leans over and whispers, “Keep going. Don’t quit.”

The Lord is a Great and Loving Father. His desire is not to punish us…but to love us because that is what Grace is all about.

God is the type of leader who will never leave us.

God’s plans are good for us. They are full of hope.

God needs us to make Him a priority in our life.

If you hear nothing else this morning, please know that God is not mad at you.

Isn’t it awesome to know that God has a plan for our lives?

Sermon: If Rocks Could Talk
Speaker: Pastor Frank Clore
Scripture Text: Nehemiah 4:1-6

If Rocks Could Talk
Nehemiah 4:1-6

The word “Bethel” comes from two words, one which means house and Elohim, a word for God. Thus, Bethel means house of God.

If the stone could talk, it would tell us that our God is a God of second chances.

The people after leaving Egypt wanted water to drink. Moses did what God told him. Fresh water poured from the rock to quench their thirst. If the rock could speak to us, it would say God will always take care of us.

Moses was getting tired. They grabbed a rock for Moses so he would have a place to sit. If that stone could speak it would tell us that God will always provide a place for us to rest.

God told Joshua to have 12 priests to go to the middle of the Jordan River and get one large stone each to build an altar. If those stones could talk, the would tell us of the awesome power of the Lord.

David chose five smooth stones to fight a giant of a man. He placed a stone in his sling shot and hurled it toward the giant. If that stone could talk, it would tell you there are no giants in your life that you cannot defeat with God on your side.

From today’s text we learned that instead of trading insults, Nehemiah prayed and the work continued. You can allow the insults to break you or build you up.

Stories about stones in the New Testament include:

• Matthew 4:3-4 Mount of Temptation.
• John 2:6 Jesus’ first miracle.
• John 4:6 Jesus’ conversation with the woman at the well.
• John 8:7 The woman caught in adultery.
• John 11:38-44 Lazarus raised from the dead.
• Luke 22:41-44 Jesus praying in the Garden.

What other stones (rocks) have taught you how much God loves you?
