The 10 Commandments used to hang in our schools.
We used to pray in our schools.
We used to have no alcohol sales in some counties.
Abortions were done far and wide.
Now, no prayer, no commandments, liquor available everywhere and to our shame, abortions are actually encouraged!
Suicide rates are high, lawlessness abounds, respect isn't taught but disrespect is applauded.
Murder, theft, child abuse us the norm!
We need revival!
This country is about to spiritually collapse!
This is not the first time that the world has turned from God!
By faith Moses, when he was born, was hidden for three months by his parents, because they saw that the child was beautiful, and they were not afraid of the king's edict. - Hebrews 11:23
How do the people of God navigate in these godless times?
1. Moses refused!
He was Pharaoh's grandson.
He chose to be with God's people.
By faith Moses, when he was grown up, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter, - Hebrews 11:24
2. Moses chose.
The world's pleasure is fleeting!
God's joy is eternal!
Sin is fun for a season.
Sin will make you a slave.
You must repent!
Feelings have replaced truth.
God's truth is the authority!
I can disagree with you and still love you.
34 Jesus answered them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, everyone who practices sin is a slave to sin.
35 The slave does not remain in the house forever; the son remains forever. - John 8:34-35
choosing rather to be mistreated with the people of God than to enjoy the fleeting pleasures of sin. - Hebrews 11:25
Then desire when it has conceived gives birth to sin, and sin when it is fully grown brings forth death. - James 1:15
"And a Redeemer will come to Zion, to those in Jacob who turn from transgression," declares the LORD. - Isaiah 59:20
3. Moses regarded!
He was looking ahead to his eternal reward!
He weighed sin against God's truth.
Your home is not here!
We are just passing through!
He considered the reproach of Christ greater wealth than the treasures of Egypt, for he was looking to the reward. - Hebrews 11:26
4. Moses left!
He stood up!
He stepped out of sin into the light!
Do the right thing even when you face persecution!
Satan's fate is sealed!
By faith he left Egypt, not being afraid of the anger of the king, for he endured as seeing him who is invisible. - Hebrews 11:27
5. Moses kept!
They were saved by the blood of a lamb just as we have salvation in the blood of Christ!
By faith he kept the Passover and sprinkled the blood, so that the Destroyer of the firstborn might not touch them. - Hebrews 11:28
18 knowing that you were ransomed from the futile ways inherited from your forefathers, not with perishable things such as silver or gold,
19 but with the precious blood of Christ, like that of a lamb without blemish or spot.
20 He was foreknown before the foundation of the world but was made manifest in the last times for the sake of you
21 who through him are believers in God, who raised him from the dead and gave him glory, so that your faith and hope are in God. - 1 Peter 1:18-21
We have lost our salt!
We need repentance!
Seek God!
Thanks Pastor Kevin!!
