April 19, 2024 - Friday 7:00PM Auditorium Speaker   Speaker:  Wade Webster   We walk by faith and not by sight There is a difference in believing something and walking that belief. Ripples Verse – 2 Cor. 5:7 Chapter – 2 Cor. 5:9, 12 Book – 2 Cor. 4:16-18; 2:14; 1:17; 1:9-10 Section – Heb. 11:1, 3, 5, 6, 7, 13, 17-19, 27, 30-32; Rom. 10:17; 4:12, 21 Testament- Mat. 14:28-33 - 28 And Peter answered him, “Lord, if it is you, command me to come to you on the water.” 29 He said, “Come.” So Peter got out of the boat and walked on the water and came to Jesus. 30 But when he saw the wind,[a] he was afraid, and beginning to sink he cried out, “Lord, save me.” 31 Jesus immediately reached out his hand and took hold of him, saying to him, “O you of little faith, why did you doubt?” 32 And when they got into the boat, the wind ceased. 33 And those in the boat worshiped him, saying, “Truly you are the Son of God.” Bible – Prov. 3:5-6; Gen. 3:5-6; Gen. 2:14 Three Reasons The Deficiencies of Sight God has no deficiencies of sight and he guides us on the right path. Jer. 10:23 -23 I know, O Lord, that the way of man is not in himself,     that it is not in man who walks to direct his steps. Prov. 14: 12 -12 There is a way that seems right to a man,     but its end is the way to death. Heb. 4:13 - 13 And no creature is hidden from his sight, but all are naked and exposed to the eyes of him to whom we must give account. Job 34:21-22 -21 “For his eyes are on the ways of a man,     and he sees all his steps. 22 There is no gloom or deep darkness     where evildoers may hide themselves. Mat. 7:13-14 -13 “Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. 14 For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few. Psa. 37:23 - 23 The steps of a man are established by the Lord,     when he delights in his way; Psa. 140:1-5 - Deliver me, O Lord, from evil men;     preserve me from violent men, 2 who plan evil things in their heart     and stir up wars continually. 3 They make their tongue sharp as a serpent's,     and under their lips is the venom of asps. 4 Guard me, O Lord, from the hands of the wicked;     preserve me from violent men,     who have planned to trip up my feet. 5 The arrogant have hidden a trap for me,     and with cords they have spread a net;     beside the way they have set snares for me. 1 Sam 23:10-13 -10 Then David said, “O Lord, the God of Israel, your servant has surely heard that Saul seeks to come to Keilah, to destroy the city on my account. 11 Will the men of Keilah surrender me into his hand? Will Saul come down, as your servant has heard? O Lord, the God of Israel, please tell your servant.” And the Lord said, “He will come down.” 12 Then David said, “Will the men of Keilah surrender me and my men into the hand of Saul?” And the Lord said, “They will surrender you.” 13 Then David and his men, who were about six hundred, arose and departed from Keilah, and they went wherever they could go. When Saul was told that David had escaped from Keilah, he gave up the expedition.   The Devices of Satan 2 Cor. 2:11 - 11 so that we would not be outwitted by Satan; for we are not ignorant of his designs. 2 Cor. 4:4 - 4 In their case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God. 2 Cor. 11:3 - 3 But I am afraid that as the serpent deceived Eve by his cunning, your thoughts will be led astray from a sincere and pure devotion to Christ. 2 Cor. 13-15; Heb. 3:13-13 But exhort one another every day, as long as it is called “today,” that none of you may be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin. Mat. 4:8-9-8 Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory. 9 And he said to him, “All these I will give you, if you will fall down and worship me.” Prov. 7:23 - 23     till an arrow pierces its liver; as a bird rushes into a snare; he does not know that it will cost him his life. 2 Kings 6   The Deceptions of Self Jam. 1:26 - 26 If anyone thinks he is religious and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his heart, this person's religion is worthless. Mat. 26:31-35 - 31 Then Jesus said to them, “You will all fall away because of me this night. For it is written, ‘I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered.’ 32 But after I am raised up, I will go before you to Galilee.” 33 Peter answered him, “Though they all fall away because of you, I will never fall away.” 34 Jesus said to him, “Truly, I tell you, this very night, before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times.” 35 Peter said to him, “Even if I must die with you, I will not deny you!” And all the disciples said the same. John 21:17 -17 He said to him the third time, “Simon, son of John, do you love me?” Peter was grieved because he said to him the third time, “Do you love me?” and he said to him, “Lord, you know everything; you know that I love you.” Jesus said to him, “Feed my sheep.   Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r6llabNwVhE   Duration 38:37
