Romans 16:25-27
Sermon: 2097 Saved to Serve, Part 1
Pray Over This
“Now to Him who is able to establish you according to my gospel and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery kept secret since the world began but now made manifest, and by the prophetic Scriptures made known to all nations, according to the commandment of the everlasting God, for obedience to the faith—to God, alone wise, be glory through Jesus Christ forever. Amen.”
Romans 16:25-27
Ponder This
Did you know every Christian is in debt? I’m not talking about what you owe the credit card company. You’re in debt. On Sundays, you sit in a chair or pew. Where did it come from? There’s a light shining down on your head. Where did that come from? Do you think this all just floated out of Heaven? For generation after generation, the blood, sweat, tears, prayers, faith, and sacrifices of others have provided what we enjoy today. We’re debtors. We’re debtors to the Apostles who suffered, the martyrs of the faith. We are debtors to Jesus Christ and His precious shed blood.
Some people think they’ve done God a wild favor by giving a little bit of money. We give not because of obligation or even to pay our debts but out of humility and worship to God because we are grateful for all that He has given us and passed on to us from generation to generation. In response, we give.
- What are some things you have because someone has passed them on to you? How have people invested in you?
- How does it feel to know God has been working throughout time, passing His hope and provision across generations for you to know Him? Who is someone from the next generation that needs to know Him?
