Message
THE PROMISE STILL STANDS
“Grace Behind Enemy Lines”
Joshua 2:1-24 & 6:22-25
Introduction: The “Highlight Reel” of Joshua reminds us that God’s promises still stand. Plans and People change but the Promise continues.
|
Then Establishing A Physical Nation Worship centered around Sacrifices through the Tabernacle The Conquest was People and Property The Command was Subdue the Land and Make War The sign of God's promise was twelve Stones and Circumcision |
Now Building A Spiritual Kingdom Worship centers around the Savior through the Church The Conquest is Souls and Salvation The Command is Spread the Gospel and Make Disciples The Sign of God's promise is one Spirit and Communion |
God Encounters You (Joshua 2:1-7)
- God’s Initiative is Sovereign
- God’s Grace reaches the Unlikely
Your Encounter Demands a Response (Joshua 2:8-11)
Callous Denial: “There is no God, so I live for Myself”
Careless Fear: “I’m too far Gone, so I live for Myself”
Casual Acceptance: “I believe God Exists, but I still live for Myself”
Complete Surrender: “I belong to God, so I live for Jesus Christ”
Your Surrender Leads to Faith in Action (Joshua 2:12-24)
Repentance: Forsaking your Old and Empty Life
Obedience: Embracing your New and True Lord
God Secures Your Deliverance (Joshua 6:22-25)
|
Then The Picture of salvation was a scarlet Cord and an enduring House |
Now The Picture of salvation is a scarlet Cross and an empty Tomb |
Application: It’s not how you Start. It’s how you Finish. God is encountering you Right Now. Will you Surrender?
