Greg Laurie Podcast God Keeps His Promises | Sunday Message
Have you ever made a promise you couldn't keep? Unlike us, God is completely faithful. We can always trust Him to fulfill what He's promised. Pastor Greg Laurie talks more about this in an insightful Bible study.
Notes:

Jesus told us our last days would be just like Noah’s time.
Matthew 24:37–44
Noah walked with God when no else did.
“Shall two walk together, except they have agreed?”
Amos 3:3
To walk with God means that I am in agreement with Him.
Early is on time, on time is late, and late is never acceptable.
To walk with God is to get in-sync with Him and move when He moves.
To walk with God is to have the same goal, purpose, and desires.
Noah was a witness for God.
2 Peter 2:5
Noah worked for God.
The Ark was built by amateurs; the Titanic was built by professionals.
God not only remembered Noah, but Noah remembered God.
Coming out of the Ark, Noah offers a sacrifice to the Lord.
Genesis 8:20
Noah had his priorities straight!
Saying grace over a meal.
Faithful giving of your finances.
Not skipping church.
Scripture reminds us to remember God.
Ecclesiastes 12:1
Read: Genesis 9:20–29
Noah’s fall teaches us that anyone can fall into sin. Moses sinned by striking the rock instead of speaking to it. David sinned with Bathsheba. Solomon sinned with the pursuit of pleasure.
Our goal as Christians, therefore, should be to not just start this race, but also finish well, too!
Noah’s fall teaches us about the destructive power of alcohol.
Genesis 9:21
Noah’s life stands as a warning to every person who follows Jesus!
If we see some Christian fall into sin, what should we do?

Our goal is always to restore, not destroy.
James 5:19–20
God keeps His promises!
God never forgets about us!
Never lower your guard or rest on your laurels, spiritually.
If someone has fallen into sin, our goal should always be to restore.
