March 22, 2017 by Brad Murphy Leave a Comment

We all face different struggles and sorrows. We work to find leaders, religious institutions, and spiritual experiences that will give us hope. We live in a time of restlessness and anxiety.

Greater Faith, Part 1

March 15, 2017 by Brad Murphy Leave a Comment

We all face different struggles and sorrows. We work to find leaders, religious institutions, and spiritual experiences that will give us hope. We live in a time of restlessness and anxiety. The writer of the book of Hebrews encourages us to find Jesus and experience Him because He is Greater. 

http://eaglelifechurch.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/2017-03-12-2.mp3
1. Let us DRAW NEAR | Hebrews 10:22
Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, with our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.

>In what ways is your heart cleansed by Jesus blood and our body washed with living water? Find     examples in 26-39
>What are some ways people draw near to God?

2. Let us HOLD FAST | Hebrews 10:23
Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for he who promised is faithful.

>What does the author say is the reason we can hold onto hope? Find examples in 26-39.
>What other things do people put their hope in? Do they satisfy?
>How can a person hold on to Gospel Hope?

3. Let us STIR UP | Hebrews 10:24-25
And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.

>In what ways do you think people miss out on experiencing true love?
>When did you experience authentic love? Compile a list of what authentic love looks like.
>What can we do, as a church, to overcome these obstacles and express love to one another and our community? Can you find examples in 26-39?

Greater Temple

March 7, 2017 by Brad Murphy Leave a Comment

We all face different struggles and sorrows. We work to find leaders, religious institutions, and spiritual experiences that will give us hope. We live in a time of restlessness and anxiety. The writer of the book of Hebrews encourages us to find Jesus and experience Him because He is Greater than the Temple. 

Remember that you have been purified, you are a promise, and you are perfected for all time in Christ Jesus. No longer slaves to fear. No longer chained to our mistakes and failures. No longer without hope! Jesus’ work is greater than any earthly temple, ritual, or priest. He makes temple work, priestly confession, and animal sacrifice obsolete. No more shedding of blood needed. His work is profoundly internal, intensely spiritual, and deeply personal.

http://eaglelifechurch.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/2017-03-05.mp3

 

  1. Purified for WORSHIP | Hebrews 9:1-14
    Jesus has been cleansed for worship and He has become the light of the world (Candle stand), the bread of life (Table of Show Bread), the fragrant offering (Altar of Incense), and shed blood for the forgiveness of sins (Ark of the Covenant). We too have been cleansed, by the blood of Christ. We are made right with God and can enter his courts with praise and confidence.
  2. Promised for ETERNITY | Hebrews 9:15-28
    The Tent was temporary, Jesus work is Forever. Jesus died as a sacrifice ONCE FOR ALL, this makes Him greater. He gave himself as a promise of an eternal inheritance. We are friends of God, we are joint heirs with Jesus, and we are given a clear conscience.
  3. Perfected for all TIME | Hebrews 10:1-18
    In the Tent, sins were only covered for a year, but in Jesus, our sins are wiped away for all time. You are right in Jesus, it is finished; You have access into the Holy Place. We are perfected for all time.

 

This Week’s Bible Reading:

Exodus 16, 25, 30; Leviticus 16; Numbers 17; Deuteronomy 10

reBUILD in the Face of Devastation

February 7, 2016 by Brad Murphy Leave a Comment

Many times our enemy comes against us in such an overwhelming way that we lose our will to reBUILD because of the comprehensive destruction that the enemy has brought to our lives.

Through this message the Holy Spirit will encourage you to WIN in the face of devastation.

http://eaglelifechurch.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/2016-02-07-Nehemiah-3.1-32-Devastation.mp3

Devastation brings _____Despair________.

DESPAIR is ______unbelief______ that fails to _______SERVE_________ God.

 

  1. reBUILDing in the Face of Devastation Kicks-off with spiritual ______Coaching/Leadership______ | Nehemiah 3:1-5

 Compare and Contrast Eliashib in 3:1 with the Tekoite nobles in 3:5

/ What type of Spiritual Leadership to respond best to? What type of Spiritual leader are you?

  1. reBUILDing in the Face of Devastation is tackled by Spiritual ____Teamwork_____ | Nehemiah 3:6-25a

Look at the team that God and Nehemiah brought together; goldsmiths, perfumers, rulers, citizens, priests, Levites, residents of Jerusalem, and people who lived far away. The Body of Christ is made up of many parts; the Holy Spirit gives us each a job to do! 1 Corinthians 12:1-31

/ What spiritual ruin are you “looking past?” Who do you need to recruit to help you reBUILD?

  1. reBUILDing in the Face of Devastation is Won by Spiritual ______Tenacity_____ | Nehemiah 3:25b-32

Yoggi Berra famously coined this cliché in his 2nd year as coach of the Mets, midway through the season when they were in last place in the division (9-games out) and a reporter asked if the season was over, Yoggi replied, “It ain’t over till it’s over.”

Some of these city walls had been ruined for 40 years. And some of the ruined walls were actually right on the door steps of people who had been living in the city for a decade. It’s often easiest to miss the mess right at our own feet.

These people needed some tenacity to get the work done.

Not that I have already obtained this or am already perfect, but I press on to make it my own, because Christ Jesus has made me his own. Brothers, I do not consider that I have made it my own. But one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead,  I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.  Let those of us who are mature think this way, and if in anything you think otherwise, God will reveal that also to you. – Philippians 3:12-15 (ESV)

/ In what ways have you allowed Devastation to bring despair to your life? What do you need to do to press on to the finish?

When faced by the devastation by our enemy we can say with confidence what Nehemiah told his enemies, “The God of heaven will make us prosper, and we his servants will arise and build, but you have no portion or right or claim in Jerusalem.” – Nehemiah 2:20 (ESV)

 

 This Week’s Bible Reading
| Nehemiah 3-5 | 1 Corinthians 12:1-31 | Philippians 3:12-17 | Psalm 140-144|

Coming Up: reBUILD in the Face of:
Accusation (1/31) | Devastation (2/7) | Discouragement (2/14) |
Intimidation (2/21) | Greed (2/28) | Distraction (3/6) | Fear (3/13) |
