Message

MOMENTUM
“Remember—Celebrate What God Has Done”
Joshua 24:1-28; 1 Corinthians 11:23-29 

Definition of Spiritual Momentum: A move of the Holy Spirit in the life of a church family that is awakening to, rallying around, and fulfilling the vision of the Great Commission.

The Great Commission: “And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, ‘All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.’ Amen.”                                (Matthew 28:18-20)

that He who has begun a good work in you
will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ.”    (Philippians 1:6)

The Cross Commemorated (1 Corinthians 11:23-29)

Application: Think about it, the God of the universe, revealed to us by Jesus, created us, saved us, called us and brought us here to serve within His church. Will we follow the example of those today, who have served sacrificially to help our church family, carryout the wishes of Jesus found in the Great Commission?
