When God Goes Before You (03/14/21)

Third Day “When God Goes Before You, There Is Evidence Of A Third Day." Joshua 1-3

 

Are we able to see the EVIDENCE when God is working on a Third Day in our lives?

 

When God speaks to us… Third Days require Courage

·     God spoke!

·     It’s often in the darkest moments of life that God speaks most clearly.

o  "You, LORD, keep my lamp burning; my God turns my darkness into light." Psalm 18:28

o  “For this son of mine was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.” Luke 15:24

o  …“cried out, “Lord, save me!” Immediately Jesus reached out his hand and caught him…” Matthew 14:30-31

·     We have to be STRONG and COURAGEOUS when God Speaks to us.

 

When God protects us… Third Days require Hope.

·     God can protect us but we have to decide who side are we on.

o  Therefore, dear brothers and sisters, you have no obligation to do what your sinful nature urges you to do. For if you live by its dictates, you will die. But if through the power of the Spirit you put to death the deeds of your sinful nature, you will live. For all who are led by the Spirit of God are children of God. Romans 8:12-14

·     We have to have hope in Christ when we come face to face with fear.

 

When God goes before us… Third Days lead us to His Promises.

·     Three things we need to understand when God leads us to our Third Day.

o  The journey starts inside us. verse 5

o  We need to stick close to God. Verses 4 & 6

o  Don’t be afraid of the deep water. Verses 15 & 16

·     Today you will know that the living God is among you. He will surely drive out (all your enemies) ahead of you. Joshua 3:10

 

Do you see the Evidence of God working in your life?
