Living In Breakdown
Hebrews 3:5-11 NIV
5 “Moses was faithful as a servant in all God’s house,” bearing witness to what would be spoken by God in the future. 6 But Christ is faithful as the Son over God’s house. And we are his house, if indeed we hold firmly to our confidence and the hope in which we glory. 7 So, as the Holy Spirit says: “Today, if you hear his voice, 8 do not harden your hearts as you did in the rebellion, during the time of testing in the wilderness, 9 where your ancestors tested and tried me, though for forty years they saw what I did. 10 That is why I was angry with that generation; I said, ‘Their hearts are always going astray, and they have not known my ways.’ 11 So I declared on oath in my anger, ‘They shall never enter my rest.’ ”
Instead of Breakthrough, I live in breakdown when I . . .
I. MISJUDGE MY ENEMY.
Exodus 14:5-8 NIV
5 When the king of Egypt was told that the people had fled, Pharaoh and his officials changed their minds about them and said, “What have we done? We have let the Israelites go and have lost their services!” 6 So he had his chariot made ready and took his army with him. 7 He took six hundred of the best chariots, along with all the other chariots of Egypt, with officers over all of them. 8 The Lord hardened the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt, so that he pursued the Israelites, who were marching out boldly.
The enemy doesn’t waste time ATTACKING those that he is already ATTRACTING.
Instead of Breakthrough, I live in breakdown when I . . .
II. MISUNDERSTAND MY PAST
Exodus 16:1-3 NIV
1 The whole Israelite community set out from Elim and came to the Desert of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month after they had come out of Egypt. 2 In the desert the whole community grumbled against Moses and Aaron. 3 The Israelites said to them, “If only we had died by the Lord ’s hand in Egypt! There we sat around pots of meat and ate all the food we wanted, but you have brought us out into this desert to starve this entire assembly to death.”
We remember the GRATIFICATION and forget about the GUILT.
Instead of Breakthrough, I live in breakdown when I . . .
III. MISHANDLE MY INTIMACY
Instead of Breakthrough, I live in breakdown when I . . .
IV. MISDIRECT MY WORSHIP
IF EVERYTHING IS WORTHY – NOTHING IS WORTHY.
My Beginning. My Forever.
