Hebrews 11 - 12 -
Hebrews 11 - The roll call of the faithful - they released their life so God could work through them
***The same God that spoke everything into being is the same God that speaks to us
***When we make our lives available like the men in Hebrews 11, God's will WILL be accomplished
***When God announces what He's about to do, it's as good as done
***If you are self-centered when God speaks, you have missed the experience
***You are a child of God and that gives Him the right to express Himself in your life
***God doesn't use just anyone - He uses His own
Hebrews 12 -
Hebrews 21 - 'Therefore let us run the race set out before us...'
***How should you face 2009?
***Faith = confident expectation that God will do what He says
***The key to the future is what God will do when he finds one who believes and will follow Him
Hebrews 11:5 - 'By faith Enoch was taken from this life, so that he did not experience death; he could not be found, because God had taken him away. For before he was taken, he was commended as one who pleased God.'
***Without faith in 2009, there is no way you can please God
***Hebrews 12 begins with 'Therefore...' We have a choice - the saints (ordinary people) in Hebrews 11 made their choice...we need to make ours.
***NOW is our choice to decide whether to follow God.
***Don't say, "I hope everyone else responds"...YOU respond!
***Facing 2009 is a heart choice
