Sermon Reflection::Ezekiel 37:1-14

Tweet

Last Sunday morning (Listen Online), David walked us through Ezekiel 37:1-14. Through the message, I continued to think about how the phrase “Stay on Message” applies to my life. On a constant basis, I struggle with becoming too caught up in MY everyday living that I lose sight of the life that HE has promised. In doing so, I tend to forget that in our existence, from birth, we deserve wrath and without the Word we remain lost. In scripture, God continually reveals Himself to his people through his Word – Abraham, Israel, Ezekiel. The spiritual life that God has laid in front of you and me comes from HIM through His word. We must “Stay on Message”. God needs NOTHING and he saved us because he wants to bring himself glory [Psalms 50:15].

Our response should be:
- Focus wholeheartedly on the Word that God has given us [scripture]
- Reflect Christ by living a life that comes from the Word of God [in response to Grace]

We attend C3 because we believe, as a united body of believers, our church is continually moving toward becoming more like Christ through our every day struggles and continual focus on the Cross. This body is unlike any I have ever been a part of – we are digging into what God has provided through [His word] and through [His leadership]. Continue to encourage and lift up your brothers and sisters and always remember the focus is Christ, without whom there is nothing else.
