Week 1 “God’s Call to Missions”

In today’s message, you will discover how God has called us from the beginning to be on mission with him

The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me,
    because the Lord has anointed me
to bring good news to the poor;
    he has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted,
to proclaim liberty to the captives,
    and the opening of the prison to those who are bound;
2 to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor,
    and the day of vengeance of our God;
    to comfort all who mourn;

Isaiah 61:1-2 (ESV)

God’s Call from the Beginning

And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”

Matthew 28:18-20 (ESV)
  1. WE ARE CALLED to lift our eyes off ourselves
  2. WE ARE CALLED to look on the harvest field
  3. WE ARE CALLED to bring in the harvest.

Do you not say, ‘There are yet four months, then comes the harvest’? Look, I tell you, lift up your eyes, and see that the fields are white for harvest.

John 4:35 (ESV)

Week 16 “Joshua: The Promise You Can Trust”

You have gained your brother.
~ Matthew 18:15

In today’s message, you will learn how God has given your house a legacy of faith.

Many use the Old Testament as a series of examples for people to follow for good living or shun as bad living.

But the Old Testament itself is a historical account of God calling people to himself and working in the world to accomplish his purpose.

How do we leave a legacy of faith?

In Joshua 24, we learn how to TELL, LEAD, and GIVE others a chance to follow God.

This is “THE PROMISE YOU CAN TRUST.”

Be strong and courageous, for you shall cause this people to inherit the land that I swore to their fathers to give them.

Joshua 1:6 (ESV)

THE LEGACY OF FAITH | Joshua: Week 16

Joshua gathered all the tribes of Israel to Shechem and summoned the elders, the heads, the judges, and the officers of Israel. And they presented themselves before God.

Joshua 24:1 (ESV) emphasis added

THE LEGACY OF FAITH

  1. TELL Others What God has Done | Joshua 24:1-13
  2. LEAD Others into Covenant with God | Joshua 24:14-28
  3. GIVE Others into God’s Hands | Joshua 24:29-33, Judges 2:10

And I sent the hornet before you, which drove them out before you, the two kings of the Amorites; it was not by your sword or by your bow. I gave you a land on which you had not labored and cities that you had not built, and you dwell in them. You eat the fruit of vineyards and olive orchards that you did not plant.’

Joshua 24:12-13 (ESV)

COVENANT WITH GOD

And if it is evil in your eyes to serve the Lord, choose this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your fathers served in the region beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you dwell. But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.”

Joshua 24:15 (ESV) emphasis added

NEXT STEPS: Respond in Prayer

  • PRAY for God to sustain His promise in our “house”
  • RECEIVE Communion as the remembrance of the New Covenant.
  • JOIN a Serve Team to help lead others to God.

Week 15 “Joshua: The Promise You Can Trust”

You have gained your brother.
~ Matthew 18:15

In today’s message, you will learn how God has promised to keep us in His promise.

In addition to God’s plan for salvation, He has a plan for you to stay, or remain, in his salvation.

How do we stay in the promise of God?

In Joshua 23, we learn how to live in the promise on the other side of salvation. This parallels Paul’s instructions in 2 Timothy 4:1-8 to endure suffering and fulfill the ministry.

This is the “THE PROMISE YOU CAN TRUST.”

Be strong and courageous, for you shall cause this people to inherit the land that I swore to their fathers to give them.

THE CHARGE TO REMAIN | Joshua: Week 15

And you have seen all that the Lord your God has done to all these nations for your sake, for it is the Lord your God who has fought for you. 4 Behold, I have allotted to you as an inheritance for your tribes those nations that remain, along with all the nations that I have already cut off, from the Jordan to the Great Sea in the west. 5 The Lord your God will push them back before you and drive them out of your sight. And you shall possess their land, just as the Lord your God promised you.

Joshua 23:3-5 (ESV)

THE CHARGE TO REMAIN

  1. God has Fulfilled His Promis
  2. Cling to God
  3. Do Not Cling to Idols

but you shall cling to the Lord your God just as you have done to this day.

Joshua 23:8 (ESV)

ACCEPT THE CHARGE

“I charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who is to judge the living and the dead, and by his appearing and his kingdom: 2 preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with complete patience and teaching. 3 For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, 4 and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths. 5 As for you, always be sober-minded, endure suffering, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry.

6 For I am already being poured out as a drink offering, and the time of my departure has come. 7 I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. 8 Henceforth there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, will award to me on that day, and not only to me but also to all who have loved his appearing.”

2 Timothy 4:1-8 (ESV)
