Week 2 – 40 Days of Faith
DIGITAL BULLETIN 26 February 2023, 10:30 a.m.
Welcome to the @EagleLifeChurch series “40 Days of Faith” leading up to Easter. In this series, you will learn to grow your faith through daily meditations and weekly messages of faith from God’s Word. You will learn to abide in God as your faith in the word of salvation helps you fight fear and persevere in your faith journey.
In this week’s sermon, Pastor Brad teaches you to have faith that is bigger than your fear. When God has declared it, He will do it. When we serve God’s mission in this world, we cannot be stopped by many or few. Because God will give the victory.
Join us as we return we grow in faith.
WORSHIP BY GIVING“Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.”

Faith Over Fear
SCRIPTURE: 1 Samuel 14:1-15; 2 Corinthians 10:3-5; Ephesians 6:10-18; Romans 8:15; 2 Timothy 1:7 (ESV)
One day Jonathan the son of Saul said to the young man who carried his armor, “Come, let us go over to the Philistine garrison on the other side.” But he did not tell his father. 2 Saul was staying in the outskirts of Gibeah in the pomegranate cave at Migron. The people who were with him were about six hundred men, 3 including Ahijah the son of Ahitub, Ichabod’s brother, son of Phinehas, son of Eli, the priest of the Lord in Shiloh, wearing an ephod. And the people did not know that Jonathan had gone. 4 Within the passes, by which Jonathan sought to go over to the Philistine garrison, there was a rocky crag on the one side and a rocky crag on the other side. The name of the one was Bozez, and the name of the other Seneh. 5 The one crag rose on the north in front of Michmash, and the other on the south in front of Geba.
6 Jonathan said to the young man who carried his armor, “Come, let us go over to the garrison of these uncircumcised. It may be that the Lord will work for us, for nothing can hinder the Lord from saving by many or by few.” 7 And his armor-bearer said to him, “Do all that is in your heart. Do as you wish. Behold, I am with you heart and soul.”
1 Samuel 14:1-7 (ESV, emphasis added)
- We don’t fight like the world fights
- We move forward in faith
- Victory comes from God
Then Jonathan said, “Behold, we will cross over to the men, and we will show ourselves to them. 9 If they say to us, ‘Wait until we come to you,’ then we will stand still in our place, and we will not go up to them. 10 But if they say, ‘Come up to us,’ then we will go up, for the Lord has given them into our hand. And this shall be the sign to us.” 11 So both of them showed themselves to the garrison of the Philistines. And the Philistines said, “Look, Hebrews are coming out of the holes where they have hidden themselves.” 12 And the men of the garrison hailed Jonathan and his armor-bearer and said, “Come up to us, and we will show you a thing.” And Jonathan said to his armor-bearer, “Come up after me, for the Lord has given them into the hand of Israel.”
13 Then Jonathan climbed up on his hands and feet, and his armor-bearer after him. And they fell before Jonathan, and his armor-bearer killed them after him. 14 And that first strike, which Jonathan and his armor-bearer made, killed about twenty men within as it were half a furrow’s length in an acre of land. 15 And there was a panic in the camp, in the field, and among all the people. The garrison and even the raiders trembled, the earth quaked, and it became a very great panic.
