I Will Take Responsibility | Coastal Community Church


Listen Later

With God’s help and the power of the Holy Spirit, I will TAKE

RESPONSIBILITY for my life. Never again will I BLAME someone else for where I am. The BUCK STOPS with me.


Genesis 1:27 “So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.”


Genesis 1:28 “God blessed them and said to them, ‘Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.’”


Genesis 3:6 “When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it.”


Genesis 3:11–13 “And he said, ‘Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?’ The man said, ‘The woman you put here with me—she gave me some fruit from the tree, and I ate it.’ Then the Lord God said to the woman, ‘What is this you have done?’ The woman said, ‘The serpent deceived me, and I ate.’”


THE 3 PLACES WE DIRECT BLAME


1. We like to blame GOD.


2. We like to blame OTHER PEOPLE.


3. We like to blame THE DEVIL.


As long as we blame somebody else versus taking responsibility ourselves, we cannot make PEACE with our PAST or move FORWARD to a better FUTURE.


1. Blame is the BASKET that carries your issues into the FUTURE.


Sometimes YOU ARE to blame.


2. Blaming FORFEITS your POWER to change.


John 16:33 “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”
