Good Morning!
God Bless You For Coming!
Putting Your Faith Where Your Mouth Is
How many here today are Christians?
How many here believe Jesus died to cover your sins?
How many believe that we will get into Heaven because we get a free coupon in our morning cereal?
Putting Your Faith Where Your Mouth Is
How DO we get into Heaven?
What’s the KEY?
JESUS CHRIST
Putting Your Faith Where Your Mouth Is
Satan Steals our Joy, Love, Happiness
and drains us of our spirit.
Satan does this on a daily basis!
Putting Your Faith Where Your Mouth Is
We Focus On How WE CAN KEEP OUR JOY but what about doing something for our friends and loved ones?
Putting Your Faith Where Your Mouth Is
We are supposed to be doing GOD’S WORK each day of our life.
Are we WORKING and spreading
THE WORD?
Putting Your Faith Where Your Mouth Is
Are we TOO secure as Christians?
Too Arrogant?
We need to spread THE WORD
Putting Your Faith Where Your Mouth Is
13 Ye are the salt of the Earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? It is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out and to be trodden under foot of men.
14 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hid.
15 Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.
16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in Heaven.
King James Version
Putting Your Faith Where Your Mouth Is
20 And, behold, a woman, which was diseased with an issue of blood twelve years, came behind him, and touched the hem of his garment;
21 For she said within herself, if I may but touch his garment, I shall be whole.
22 But Jesus turned him about, and when he saw her, he said, Daughter, be of good comfort; thy faith hath made thee whole. And the woman was made whole from that hour.
King James Version
Putting Your Faith Where Your Mouth Is
20 And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief; for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.
King James Version
Putting Your Faith Where Your Mouth Is
Please bow in prayer!
Putting Your Faith Where Your Mouth Is
What is Faith?
Putting Your Faith Where Your Mouth Is
“Faith is believing something,
Little Girl, That Nobody In
His Right Mind
Would Believe In!”
– Archie Bunker
Putting Your Faith Where Your Mouth Is
Glass Half Empty?
Fill Your Cup With
THE WORD
Putting Your Faith Where Your Mouth Is
All you have to do is plant a seed
in someone and God will do the rest.
God can make that testimony grow
through Faith and Love.
Putting Your Faith Where Your Mouth Is
Are you a GOOD person?
Have you told a lie?
Have you stolen something?
Have you wanted something that belonged to somebody else?
AM I GOOD ENOUGH TO GO TO HEAVEN?
Putting Your Faith Where Your Mouth Is
“You shall have no other gods before ME.”
Do we put God first in our lives?
Putting Your Faith Where Your Mouth Is
“You shall not make for yourself any idol.”
Do put other things before God?
Do you ‘worship’ a hobby, your job or an object?
Putting Your Faith Where Your Mouth Is
“You Shall not take the name of God in vain.”
Blasphemer!
These are moral standards of goodness
Putting Your Faith Where Your Mouth Is
“Remember the Sabbath Day, to keep it holy.”
Today’s a pretty day and we need to get the mowing done? Ouch, I’m guilty of that. Not enough time in the day to get what we need to get done!
Putting Your Faith Where Your Mouth Is
“Honor your father and your mother.”
Kids, ever not listen to them?
Not do what they say?
Not RESPECT them?
Putting Your Faith Where Your Mouth Is
“You shall not murder.”
Phew! I think we’re all free of this one, except maybe a mouse or two, or some bugs and maybe a opossum on the road late at night.
Putting Your Faith Where Your Mouth Is
“You shall not commit adultery.”
God tells that even if we look at another man or woman with lust, then we’ve committed adultery.
Putting Your Faith Where Your Mouth Is
“You shall not steal.”
