Josiah the Reformer…Choose today who you will serve. 
 
Theme verse:  Joshua 24:15 (NIV84)
“But if serving the LORD seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your forefathers served beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the LORD.”

Text:  2 Kings 18-23               
Josiah didn’t allow his culture, or society to dictate his morality, rather, he realized his ability to influence others and gained a view of the scriptures that propelled him to be an agent of change in his time, in his generation. 

1. Realize the Value of Scripture
2. Realize the Value of Your Influence

Be a thermostat!  Stand for Godly principles and live to challenge & change your environment.  Cultivate a new love for the word of God, realize the value of scripture in your life.  Realize also the value of your influence on those around you.  Be a thermostat, be a Josiah.

On Sunday, Pastor Randy talked about a few of the spiritual gifts in 1 Corinthians 12-14. Why would Paul write about love being the excellent way in the middle of his teaching on spiritual gifts? Because it is love that makes the gifts meaningful and life-giving.

It always has a negative impact on our lives, as well as everyone around us. Sin never leaves us the same. It always changes us, but never for the better. It promises so much but leaves us with so little. Sin is a DECEPTION.

Jesus Christ is the only sacrifice for our sins. Jesus solved the sin problem for good, and not just for our sins but also for the sins of the whole world.

Here’s what we need to know.

1. Sin Blinds Us

2. Sin Binds Us

If you’re living in sin, you don’t have to stay in sin. You don’t have to keep reaping death.

Jesus doesn’t beat us down in our sins. He comes to give us victory over our sins so we can live a life of peace, joy and authentic love that enriches us and blesses others.

Purity involves not only the control of our sexual appetites, but it involves our thoughts, our motives, our words and our actions.
In the Bible there’s a young King named Josiah who forever stands as a testimony of an individual who was militant against impurity. Josiah waged a personal war against it. Read the story in 2 Chronicles 33-35.

  1. Best known for their strong herding & following instinct.

  7. They depend heavily on what they see.

Why is the resurrection of Jesus Christ so important to us?

The answer can be found in part through the vision the Apostle John had when he saw the risen savior, the Lord Jesus Christ.

Revelation 1:10 “I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s Day, and I heard behind me a loud voice, as of a trumpet, 11-saying, “I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last,” 12-Then I turned to see the voice that spoke with me. 17-And when I saw Him, I fell at His feet as dead. But He laid His right hand on me, saying to me, “Do not be afraid; I am the First and the Last.  18-I am He who lives, and was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore. Amen. And I have the keys of Hades and of Death.”

 

What did Jesus do during the three days His body laid in the grave? The answer is astonishing; He WENT TO HELL FOR US!

1. Jesus Captured the Key to Hades

2. Jesus Captured the Key to Death

Why is the resurrection of Jesus Christ so important to us? The answer can be found in part through the vision the Apostle John had when he saw the risen savior, the Lord Jesus Christ. Revelation 1:10 “I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s Day, and I heard behind me a loud voice, as of a trumpet, 11-saying, “I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last,” 12-Then I turned to see the voice that spoke with me. 17-And when I saw Him, I fell at His feet as dead. But He laid His right hand on me, saying to me, “Do not be afraid; I am the First and the Last.  18-I am He who lives, and was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore. Amen. And I have the keys of Hades and of Death.”   What did Jesus do during the three days His body laid in the grave? The answer is astonishing; He WENT TO HELL FOR US! 1. Jesus Captured the Key to Hades 2.

Luke wrote that the crowds rendered “joyful praise to God in loud voices.” In the message, Pastor Randy breaks down this phrase into three thoughts:

1. THE JOY OF WORSHIP- “Joyful praise [to God in loud voices.”]  Luke 19:3

There are Three Excuses we use to Not Worshipping Joyfully:

a. Circumstances

b. Personality

c. Sin

Two physical expressions in joyful worship:

a. Clap your  hands to the Lord

b. Dance before the Lord


2. THE AUDIENCE OF WORSHIP- “[Joyful praise] to God [in loud voices.]” Luke 19:37

 

Every act of worship is for God.  He is the subject and object of our praise.

Two Additional Physical Expressions in Biblical Worship:

a. Bow down before the Lord

b. Lift hands to the Lord


3. THE VOICE OF WORSHIP

“[Joyful praise to God] in loud voices.”  Luke 19:37

Two Ways to Use our Voices in Worship:

a. Sing to the Lord

b. Shout to the Lord

This was a season during the Israelites’ travel to the Promised Land. It was a difficult time because they only received just enough manna for each day. It was also an amazing time because God always provided and showed His faithfulness to them by blessing them with food each day. After 40 years, the manna stopped filling the desert floor each morning. Though the manna ceased, generations to come would hear the lessons learned through this wilderness experience. Here are some of those lessons.

1 . A Season of Manna includes Daily Miracles -Exodus 16:13-15

2. A Season of Manna is Intended to Humble You -Deuteronomy 8:2a

3. A Season of Manna will Test You - Deuteronomy 8:2

4. A Season of Manna Points us to the Bread of Life -John 6:47-51a
