Questions
- How does Philippians 4:4 relate to enjoying and utilizing all the opportunities God sets before you?
- "Rejoice in the Lord always. Again, I say rejoice." If we're going to rejoice in something, we celebrate it in its entirety. If we are going to be rejoicing in God, then we are praising him for the fullness of Himself, the blessings He's poured out, the work He has accomplished, and for the blessings and work he will complete in the future.
- Why do some Christians not move forward when they know God is calling them?
- Fear and doubt.
- They fear the response and negative consequences that may come from being a bold witness
- They doubt the sufficiency and will of God to see His work through and to provide what is needed. So, they say "I can't", because, in their doubt, they see no way it can be accomplished
- Give an example where you have responded in faith to an opportunity God has given you.
- Honestly, I'm not sure. For a very long time, I've been a fear and doubt Christian, not one walking in faith, trust, and courage.
2 Timothy 2:1-13
"Keep your attention on Jesus Christ as risen from the dead and descended from David. This is according to my Gospel. I suffer for it to the point of being bound like a criminal, but God's message is not bound. This is why I endure all things for the elect: so that they also may obtain salvation, which is in Christ Jesus, with eternal glory." - vv. 8-10 (emphasis added)
