Victory Against All Odds

On February 21, 2012, in Sermon Resources, by Shoreline


Sometimes life can be a battle.  We feel surrounded and outnumbered.  The good news is that we don’t have to be overcome or paralyzed by fear. Victory can be ours just like the courageous men and women who have followed God and experienced His presence and deliverance.  Join us at Shoreline Community Church as we continue our journey through The Story and learn lessons of courage from Joshua, Judges and Ruth.

Personal Reflection: What kind of attitudes and actions keep me from following God’s plan and living in His will? Am I displaying any of these attitudes right now? What can I do to get rid of these attitudes?

Discussion:Why does God dislike grumbling and complaining so much? What are ways we can fall into a negative and grumbling spirit? How can we encourage each other to avoid a negative and complaining spirit?

Prayer Direction: Ask God to help you notice when you grumble and pray for power to resist this temptation. Pray for strength to refuse to listen to the complaining of others.

“Live It!” Challenge: Ask a close friend that you trust to be a “grumbling monitor” in your life. Give them permission to point out when you are being negative and starting to complain.

Monthly Prayer Focus: Pray for the spirit of Shoreline Community Church to be positive and for grumbling and complaining to go away. Pray for the staff to lead the way in having a positive spirit.
