2005-09-04 Character Issue - 10 - Getting Through the Impossible

from Spiritual Wisdom from Old Guys Hosted by Dave DeVries

What's the difference between paddlers who depend on themselves and sailors who depend on God's Spirit? How does faith enable people to get through impossible situations? This message contrasts those who paddle through life relying on their own abilities with those who raise their sails and let God's wind move them forward. Explore how Israel faced the impossible at the Red Sea and at Jericho's massive walls, discovering that faith means taking advantage of what God supplies even when His plans seem illogical. Learn the four dimensions of genuine faith—receiving, reckoning, risk, and rest—and why stepping out in faith always risks looking foolish. Meet Rahab, a Gentile prostitute whose faith mattered more than her morality, leading to her inclusion in Jesus' genealogy.
