About This Project

What is our FIRST reaction when threatened in life?

Christians, YOU are called to be different from the world, not to compromise with the world.

You can be…
• Spiritual…
• Have faith…
• Go to church…
• Be a good person…
• Embraced by your neighbors…
… AND STILL have no right relationship with God.

BUT there is always hope even in the darkest of seasons: God’s Grace is ALWAYS available!

Today we dive into the deterioration of the Northern Kingdom of Israel caused by compromising and imitating the ungodly nations around them.

Points to Note:

• Never Forget:You are different

Spiritual Compromise:

• Forgetting WHO made you.
• Thinking you belong here. (In this world)
• Trying to be LIKE here. (Imitating this world)
• Depending on here. (On this world)

Pastoral Thoughts:

1. In spite of our waywardness, God’s promises are sure.
2. A nation removed from God’s voice is a nation removed from prosperity.

Questions to Consider:

1. What is your FIRST reaction when threatened in life?
2. Are you putting God first in your life?
3. Are you living in a state of comfortable Christianity?
4. Are you ready for action and prepared for Jesus’ near return?
5. Are you activated in the midst of these wicked times to prepare the way of the Lord?

Challenge:

Read the Word of God daily, seek Him, and fast and pray for revival.
