Notes for Aug 3

Our world is shaky. We face hard decisions, tough times, shifting sand that make it hard to live a solid Christian life

….. illustration … 3 Little Pigs, Matt 7:24-27 (It's not about the building but the foundation)

..... A little intro on 1 Peter, especially 1:3-4

…. Living Hope that is Imperishable, Undefiled, Unfading

- it doesn't perish, spoil, fade (= UNSHAKABLE)

Let's look at some Old Testament principles that give us an insight to Unshakable, Jeremiah and David

Jeremiah 29:11-14

… not about plan or a place BUT about a person

Psalm 27

… David seeks ONE THING (vs 4)

1 - Seek God's face more than His hand (v8)

2 - Shift from the Word of God to the God of the Word (v11)

3 - Embrace His Presence (v14 wait for the Lord)

- note: since Jesus has come and with His promise … He is with us, His Spirit in us, but the relationship is about Him not what He does for us

- and in His presence, we include Him in every thing in every moment

===================

TAKE IT WITH YOU - these three points are the start of the Living Hope, an Unshakable Life in a shifting world. Which one do you need to work on?
