Opposition

Sermon Date:  October 12, 2016

Sermon Topic: Opposition

Sermon Notes:

Opposition in the kingdom is based on what we’ve done. We are saved by grace. Every yoke has been destroyed. Never let past experiences set the agenda for your life. Don’t dwell on your mistakes. Tomorrow is another day.

You waste valuable time dealing with something that’s over with. Let it go.

Psalm 62:11 – God hath spoken once; twice have I heard this that the power belongs to God. We have the tendency to credit ourselves with our own success. 2 Corinthians 3:5 – our sufficiency is of God. It is the Lord’s doing. My God shall supply all of my needs. All you have to do is the right thing and he will not withhold no good thing.

Temperance – self-control – faith and knowledge are required.

Can you control yourself?

We must control our speech. We need patience. Don’t say anything and be wiling to wait.

Wait patiently on the Lord. Be Holy and Godly and show brotherly kindness. Be a complete disciple of God.

Self control is not just controlling your speech in the presence of others – it’s also when you’re alone.
