design of community

dependence on the LORD
Quote — “We encounter God all over again every time we’re desperate
enough to realize that we’re not in control.” — Bob Goff
dependence in prayer
Moses cried out to God – this wasn’t some. Hey God, I need some water –
oh, by the way I may get stoned today. He was begging God to work in this
situation and deliver Him from the crisis. He was desperate for God to work
instead of complaining cry out to God
3. Faith Grows in the DIVINE Presence of God — v. 6
Quote — “When all signs tell us there is no way out, we find God in the
uncertainty and he makes a way.” — Bob Goff
Quote – “Suffering can refine us rather than destroy us because God
himself walks with us in the fire.” – Tim Keller
faith isn’t about resources is about relationship
Quote –“There is no way to get through life unless you know how to get
through suffering, and there is no way to get through suffering unless you
have a living hope.” – Tim Keller

Preparation for Promise
Pastor Jayson Workman
Numbers 13-14
October 18, 2020
Moving forward in faith requires an unwavering commitment to obey God
Hebrews 11:6 And without faith it is impossible to please him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him.
The Bible teaches us that fear will highjack our faith and ruin our future.
Don’t FORFEIT your FUTURE by not putting your FAITH in God
1. unified calling — 13:1-20
John 20:21 Jesus said to them again, “Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, even so I am sending you.”
Matthew 28:19-20 Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”
Quote – “Without the mission, a church is not a church, it’s just a group of disobedient Christians hanging out.” — J.D. Greear, Gaining by Losing
Quote -“The church is one of the few organizations in the world that doesn't exist for the benefit of its members” - Ed Stetzer
2. unbelieving congregation — 13:25-14:1-4
3. unwavering conviction — 14:6-9
Numbers 14:9 Only do not rebel against the Lord. And do not fear the people of the land, for they are bread for us. Their protection is removed from them, and the Lord is with us; do not fear them.”
Quote —“It is not the strength of your faith but the object of your faith that actually saves you.” — Tim Keller
Quote — “Nothing is more dangerous, more compelling, more freeing, more radical, more satisfying, more powerful than a person holding a smidgen of faith. A sincere faith in Jesus and all he wants to do around us wakes us up, rattles our lives and shifts every perspective, issues hope in pain, and ignites purpose.” — Jennie Allen, Nothing to Prove
Confidence in God is a conviction that God will keep His promises
4. unfortunate consequences — 14:22-24
REBELLION against God will always lead to REGRET
5. unlimited capabilities
