The Obedience of Faith

Pastor:
Passage: Joshua 5-6
Sunday Morning:

CENTRAL TRUTH:
God's people FLOURISH when they commit to ACTIVE OBEDIENCE.

LESSONS ON OBEDIENCE FROM JOSHUA (ISRAEL):

1. Obedience is not about GETTING GOD ON OUR SIDE, but ALIGNING OUR LIVES WITH HIS.

2. Obedience is not always COMFORTABLE and/or CONVENTIONAL. (6:1-15)

3. Obedience takes PRECEDENCE above all else and is the surest evidence of TRUE FAITH. (6:16-27)

CLOSING THOUGHT:
Obedience is the key to experiencing the BENEFITS of God's POWER AND PROMISES in this life.
