Faithfulness to God's Word

Part 4

February 6, 2022 • Mason Adair • Joshua 1:1–9

Give

God called Joshua after Moses' death. Joshua is overwhelmed with the task and responsibility he was given by God. In God's commission to Joshua, God stresses 3 important things. God's words of focus and encouragement helped Joshua to be "strong and courageous" in leading the children of Israel to conquer the Promised Land.

Push Through Adversity

March 13, 2022 • Mason Adair • Nehemiah 4:1–4, Nehemiah 4:7–8, Nehemiah 6:1–4, Nehemiah 6:8–9, Nehemiah 2:17–20

After the fall of Babylon, God began restoring Judah and Jerusalem. Nehemiah was used by God to rebuild the walls around Jerusalem but it didn't come with out adversity. Nehemiah's story teaches us that courageous people push through adversity and resist the temptation to compromise or quit.

Taking A Stand for God Even When Others Won't

March 6, 2022 • Mason Adair • Jeremiah 29:4–7, Philippians 3:20, Romans 12:2, 1 John 2:15–17, Daniel 3:3–30

In Daniel 3, 3 Hebrew exiles in the Babylonian Empire chose to take a stand for God even when others would not. Their faith in the fire was brave and it teaches us something about our own faith. Faith believes God can, expects God will but trusts God when He doesn’t.
