Greg Laurie Podcast Get Your Feet Wet! | Sunday Message
Pastor Greg Laurie gives us wisdom from Joshua 3–4, where we see the Israelites cross the Jordan River.
Notes:
The Christian life is not a playground but a battleground, and there’s not really a choice of fighting or not fighting; it’s a choice of victory or defeat.
Deuteronomy 6:23
“He brought us out, that He might bring us in.”
The people of Canaan were wicked.
When people repent, God relents!
Read: Joshua 3:4–8
If we want to enter the land of promises, we must be bold and strong!
Joshua 3:4
Habakkuk 3:2
“Lord, I have heard of Your fame; I stand in awe of Your deeds. Repeat them in our day, in our time make them known; in wrath, remember mercy.”
The Three R’s of Revival:
Remember, repent, and repeat.
If you want to live in the land of promises, you must keep your eyes on God.
Joshua 3:4
When we are looking to Jesus, it will change the way we see our circumstances!
If you want to live in the land of promises, you must take risks!
If you are called to lead, you must go first and set the pace.
Joshua 3:7
If you want to be a good leader, first be a good follower.
Joshua and the people of Israel moved in faith!
Faith is like a muscle; it gets stronger through use, but if you don’t use it, it will atrophy!
If you are called to be a leader, then lead!
Romans 12:7–8
Sometimes a step of faith will not necessarily make much sense!
Remember to give thanks with as much passion as you prayed for help!
Read: Joshua 4:21–24
Judges 2:8–10
Children will remember the time you made for them. Children will remember the way you interacted with your spouse. Your kids will remember your words of affirmation and criticism.
To train up means, “to create a thirst in.”
It’s never too late for a new beginning!
