THE HALL OF FAITH [4]

HEBREWS 11:23-27

Pastor Rick Jackson

I. IT SHOULD BE A FAMILY-LIFE THING [v. 23]

1. The Cooperation of a Family's Faith [Psalm 84:11]

For the LORD God is a sun and shield: the LORD will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.

2. The Courage of a Family's Faith

3. The Consequences of a Family's Faith

II. IT SHOULD BE A LIFE-CHANGING THING [v. 24-26]

1. The Refusal of Faith [v. 24]

You cannot say "Yes" to God without saying "No" to the world, the flesh, or the Devil!

2. The Choosing of Faith [v. 25]

Faith choices are rarely easy choices but they are always wise choices.

3. The Respect of Faith [v.26]

Faith respects the true lasting value of people, places, and things.

III. IT SHOULD BE A LIFE-DEFINING THING [v. 27]

1. Faith defined His Past - he rejected it! [By faith he forsook Egypt]

2. Faith defined His Present - he faced it! [not fearing the wrath of the king:]

3. Faith defined His Future - he lived it! [for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible.]
