Ezekiel 29-32; The Pride of Egypt Falls

The Pride of Egypt Falls 🏛️⚔️

'For thus says the Lord God: The sword of the king of Babylon shall come upon you.' - Ezekiel 32:11

Even the mightiest empires crumble when they exalt themselves above God. Egypt's glory couldn't save it from judgment. 

Key takeaways:
• Pride goes before destruction 
• God is in control, not earthly powers
• We must humble ourselves before the Lord

Choose today: Will you live in the flesh or in God's mercy? 🙏

JOT that Down: 2nd Samuel

We look in 2nd Samuel at the ways David's life has parallels to and foreshadows Christ, and how God keeps his Promises.

Life in Progress Week 4: Stretch your Faith

Faith isn't about your abilities - it's about your obedience.

In Hebrews 11, we see how ordinary people accomplished extraordinary things simply by trusting God and stepping out in faith. Noah built an ark. Abraham left his home. Moses confronted Pharaoh. None of them felt qualified, but they obeyed anyway.

God doesn't call the equipped; He equips the called. 

What is He calling you to do today? That ministry you've been considering? That person you feel prompted to reach out to? That leap of faith that terrifies you?

Remember: Your weaknesses don't disqualify you. Your faith qualifies you.

'Without faith it is impossible to please God.' - Hebrews 11:6

Step out. Trust Him. Watch what He can do through your obedience.

God's Sovereignty &The Fate of Tyre; Ezekiel 26-28

God's Word Stands the Test of Time 📖⏳

The prophecy of Tyre's destruction in Ezekiel 26-28 shows the incredible accuracy of biblical prophecy. Centuries before it happened, God foretold how the city would be scraped bare and cast into the sea. History confirms every detail!

Key takeaways:
• God's foreknowledge is perfect
• Pride comes before destruction
• God will judge nations that oppose His people
• There's hope for Israel's future restoration

Remember: No matter how powerful we think we are, we're all created beings. Only God is eternal and all-knowing. Stay humble and trust in His plan! 🙏

Life in Progress Week 3 Bullseye

Who's at the center of your life? 🎯

Paul's radical transformation shows us how to prioritize our relationships:

• God at the center ❤️
• Surround yourself with wise influences 🤝
• Care for those far from God, without compromise 🙏
• Be a light to the watching world 🌎

'Walk with the wise and become wiser, but a companion of fools suffers harm.' - Proverbs 13:20

Your circle of relationships shapes your faith journey. Who are you allowing to influence you? And who are you influencing for Christ?

Now You See: Life in Progress Week 2

Now You See: It's not about WHERE you're going, it's about WHO you're with.

Jesus isn't just a self-help guide or a philosophy - He's a PERSON who wants a relationship with YOU. 

Don't let your faith become just a checklist. Get to know God personally:

• Read His Word as a conversation, not a textbook
• Spend dedicated time with Him 
• Let knowing Him change how you think, feel, and act

Remember: Your works don't lead to knowing God. Knowing God leads to good works.

Where are you going? The better question is: Who are you walking with?

If You Brought it to the Cross, Leave it There...

After the cross, we're called to change. 🙏

Jesus offers us living water, healing, and new life - but He doesn't leave us as we are.

When we encounter Christ, we're challenged to:

• Let go of our old ways

• Confront our sins and struggles

• Walk in the light of His forgiveness

• Share our testimony with others

"Go and sin no more." - Jesus

Your past is paid for. It's time to live differently.

Ezekiel 24-25

Even in our darkest moments, God remains faithful. 

In Ezekiel 24-25, we see God's judgment on Israel and surrounding nations. It's a sobering reminder that sin has consequences. Yet even as He disciplines, God's ultimate goal is purification and restoration.

Ezekiel's personal loss mirrors Israel's coming devastation. But through it all, Ezekiel's devotion to God never wavers. His example challenges us:

Do we love God above all else? 
Are we willing to follow Him no matter the cost?

Remember, those who bless God's people will be blessed; those who curse them will be cursed. God keeps His promises, even when we fail.

Let's examine our hearts today. Where have we put other things before God? How can we renew our commitment to Him?

Jesus in the Old Testament: The Book of Judges

Did you know Jesus appears in the Old Testament? 🤯

This week's sermon on the book of Judges reveals mind-blowing parallels between Samson and Jesus:

• Both had miracle births announced by angels
• Both entered enemy territory humbly
• Both conquered their enemies with symbols of peace
• Both stretched out their arms in sacrifice
• Both accomplished more in death than in life

But here's the kicker - Samson's flaws highlight Jesus' perfection. While Samson's death brought temporary victory, Christ's death AND resurrection bring eternal salvation!

Join us next Sunday as we continue to uncover 'Jesus in the Old Testament.' You won't believe what we find next! 🙌📖
