Attack of the Heart: Approval

Galatians 1:6-10

Pastor Jayson Workman

South Gate— July 11, 2021

 

Introduction

 

Proverbs 4:23 Keep your heart with all vigilance, for from it flow the springs of life.

 

Seek God’s approval, not the approval of others.

 

Proverbs 29:25 The fear of man lays a snare, but whoever trusts in the Lord is safe.

 

1. Stop CHASING man’s approval.

 

      Compromise what you believe (vv. 6–9)

 

      Compromise who you are (v. 10)

 

2. Strengthen CONVICTION of God’s opinion.

 

God must be BIGGER to you than people are.

 

3. Simply COMMIT to your calling.

 

We are a slave to ONE and a servant to ALL.

 

Quote: “The task God sets for us is to need them less and love them more” — Ed Welch, When People are Big and God is Small 

 

Stop using people for their approval, and you’ll be free to serve them.
