Fathers Day 3


Hello Everyone,
Children, your parents and grandparents aren’t your history…they are your heritage!

Prov.22:1
A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches. (Poem in bulletin)

How do we pass on a Godly Heritage?

First of all Get Saved   You have to receive the heritage first!    (Noah found grace…)

Gen. 7:4Seven days from now I will send rain on the earth for forty days and forty nights, and I will wipe from the face of the earth every living creature I have made.

There were 7 days people could be saved…(you can get saved any day until suddenly the door slams shut…or the last sinner walks the aisle!)

To pass on a Godly Heritage number 1. Get Saved

Secondly Get Right (might mean getting rid of… / getting right w/ a family member / getting married!)

And last but not least Get into Church
I did not say GO to church I said Get INTO church! Big difference.
(Do you love Jesus?…you’ll love what Jesus loves!)

Have you noticed that God was able to pull off His plan with just one man and one family?

That gives me hope! Even if I feel my impact is insignificant, God can still use it to accomplish His wonders. 

Noah and his family were amateurs…not professionals (The people who built the Titanic were professionals!)

Remember this important truth: God may want to use your family in an unusual way. God wants to use your family as an instrument of His grace through which He can unleash His creative plans and projects.

The story of Noah is an excellent illustration of this. Will you, like Noah, respond with obedience?

Greater Things Are Still To Come!
Pastor Phil
