Taking the Next Step in Wisdom & Reassurance

Joshua 9-10:15

“God will show off when you don’t.” ~Asil Treblig

We can take the next step in wisdom and reassurance but…

1. It requires some full disclosure.

· Future battles are coming.

· Future blessings are coming.

2. It requires careful discernment.

· Seeking counsel from others.

· Seeking counsel from God.

3. It requires complete dependability.

· Being a person of your word.

· Backing up your word with actions.

4. It requires occasional deviation.

· God is the expert at making lemonade.

· Don’t make a habit of drinking lemonade.

5. It requires concrete devotion.

· God is a God of his word.

· God will show off when we give him the chance.

Taking the Next Step in Confidence & Consecration

Joshua 7

“Confidence in living victoriously for Christ begins by knowing He died victoriously for you.” ~Asil Treblig

To take that next step for God and to step out in confidence and consecration we must realize…

1. Sin is real in our life.

· Recognize the battle and engage.

· If you are breathing you are affected by it.

2. Sin has real consequences in our life.

· It ripples out and affects others.

· Small compromises can lead to great defeats.

3. Sin will be exposed in our life.

· God sees what we hide.

· Live transparently before God.

4. Sin will be judged in our life.

· There is an Achan in all of us.

· There is a savior in some of us.
