Ephesians 6:10

“And that about wraps it up. God is strong, and he wants you strong. So take everything the Master has set out for you, well-made weapons of the best materials. And put them to use so you will be able to stand up to everything the Devil throws your way. This is no afternoon athletic contest that we’ll walk away from and forget about in a couple of hours. This is for keeps, a life-or-death fight to the finish against the Devil and all his angels.”

Point 1: praise god in everything for everything

Point 2: actually try turning to God

Point 3: the fear of god will lead to a trust in God

Psalm 22:1-8

Psalm 22:14-18

Are we sealed off from the rest of the world?

Are we reaching out to those who need us most?

We’ve been given “The ministry of reconciliation”.

Why does God do things we don’t understand?

How do you deal with the poison ivy of your life?

Is our faith strong enough to survive in the dark?

If there’s anything a sufferer needs, it’s an explanation from God. God wants us to embrace His sovereignty. Job never learned why, but he knew Who!

What’s over my head is still under God’s feet!

1. What is Heaven Like?

2. Who Will Be There?

3. What Will We Be Like?
