iceberg pic)THE KEY “ICEBERG” PASSAGE: Deuteronomy 6:6-9 (HCSB)
These words that I am giving you today are to be in your heart. 7Repeat them to your children. Talk about them when you sit in your house and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. 8Bind them as a sign on your hand and let them be a symbol on your forehead. 9Write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates."
What We’ve Learned So Far:
Week #1: Every Story Of TRANSFORMATION Begins With A WORD From God.
Week #2: Do SOMETHING About ONE THING Instead Of NOTHING About Everything.
Week #3: My One Word is a LENS through which you will SEE, not a PROMISE which you must keep.
Message Bottom Line Week #4: Keep Your “Word From God” In FRONT of you so you won’t FORGET God’s Voice.
(pinata pic)The PIÑATA is Sweet... But It’s Hollow, Broken, And Forgotten! Deuteronomy 8:11-14, 19-20 (NASB)
“Beware lest you forget the LORD your God by not keeping His commandments and His ordinances and His statutes which I am commanding you today; 12lest, when you have eaten and are satisfied, and have built good houses and lived in them, 13and when your herds and your flocks multiply, and your silver and gold multiply, and all that you have multiplies, 14then your heart becomes proud, and you forget the LORD your God who brought you out from the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery.
19“And it shall come about if you ever forget the LORD your God, and go after other gods and serve them and worship them, I testify against you today that you shall surely perish. 20“Like the nations that the LORD makes to perish before you, so you shall perish; because you would not listen to the voice of the LORD your God.
The Problem: New Things Are Motivating Because They Are New. Motivation Decreases When NEW Becomes OLD!
The Answer: A Powerful, Personal, Permanent ALTAR That God Uses To reNEW my MIND.
I urge you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living and holy sacrifice, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service of worship. 2And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind… Romans 12:1,2
