Message
THE PROMISE STILL STANDS
“The High Price of Hidden Sin”
Joshua 7-8
Introduction: The “Highlight Reel” of Joshua (whether in Victory or Defeat) reminds us that God’s promises still stand.
Hidden Sin…
Cultivates in Complacency (Joshua 7:1-4)
- “An unguarded Strength is a double Weakness” -Oswald Chambers
Cripples with Shame (Joshua 7:5-18)
- Types of Shame
o Relational: Broken Trust and Paranoia with Others
o Personal: Guilt and Self-condemnation
o Spiritual: Separation from God’s Favor and Fellowship
Charts a deadly Course (Joshua 7:19-21) (James 1:14-15)
- You See it: Temptation
- You Desire it: Lust
- You Engage it: Action
- You Hide it: Excuses
- You Treasure it: Idolatry
- It Kills You: Devastation
Carries far-reaching Consequences (Joshua 7:22-26)
- Sin ALWAYS…
o Takes you further than you want to Go
o Keeps you longer than you want to Stay
o Costs you more than you want to Pay
o Infects beyond Yourself
Confessed & Cleared brings Victory (Joshua 8:1-35)
|
Then |
Now |
Application: What you Cover, God will Uncover. But what you Uncover, God will Cover. What sin in your life do you need to Confess & Clear so God can bring Revival?
