End Like You Started
Sermon Notes
The Church needs people who know how to pray and seek the Lord— not just when you’re in a battle, but in every season of life. You must always rely on God more than your own abilities.
Key Scriptures:
II Chronicles 16:9-13; II Chronicles 14:8-12; II Chronicles 15:2-4; II Chronicles 15:13-15; II Chronicles 16:2-3; Psalm 1:1
Key Points:
- Pray always. Some people only pray in a battle. But if you pray when times are good, if you get into a battle, you won’t have a panic attack. Pray before the battle, during the battle, and after the battle. No matter how much success you get, you’re never above praying.
- End like you started. When you get to the place of success and God has blessed you, you are in the most dangerous place of your life. Don’t finish in the flesh what was born of the Spirit.
- Walk by faith, not by sight. Like Asa, many people get diseased in their feet and don’t walk by faith like they used to. It’s one thing to make a mistake and quickly repent, but don’t let it get in your walk. Sin spreads, and if you don’t deal with it quickly, it will affect every part of you.
Final Thoughts:
If the disciples needed their feet to be washed, so do you. If you’ve allowed your feet to be diseased and let sin into your walk with God, it’s time to be cleansed. Finish the same way you started— with faith and purity.
