Going and ObeyingToday, I want to take you to another promise of Jesus. It’s my favorite one. But it too is dependent on your posture. Let’s read it and see if you can hear the promise and the posture…Matthew 28:16-20 NIV16 Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go. 17 When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted. 18 Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age." So, what’s the PROMISE? _________________________________ And what’s the POSTURE? ________________________________This is a command with 4 expectations…JESUS SAID, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore…”G____________________ M_______________________ D____________________________B________________________ them T________________________ them to O____________________. The space between the POSTURE of WORSHIP and the PROMISE of His PRESENCE is f_____________-___________ a______________________.Faith is the “_________________________________” in our daily discipleship. Hebrews 11:1-2 NIVNow faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. Listen to the rest of Hebrews 11…(v.4) By faith Abel offered God a better sacrifice than Cain did. (v.7) By faith Noah, when warned about things not yet seen, in holy fear built an ark to save his family.(v.8) By faith Abraham, when called to go to a place he would later receive as his inheritance, obeyed and went, even though he did not know where he was going. (vv.27-28) By faith Moses left Egypt, not fearing the king's anger; he persevered because he saw him who is invisible. 28 By faith he kept the Passover and the sprinkling of blood, so that the destroyer of the firstborn would not touch the firstborn of Israel. (v.29) By faith the people of Israel passed through the Red Sea as on dry land(v.30) By faith the walls of Jericho fell, after the people had marched around them for seven days. Hebrews 12:1-3 NIVTherefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us. 2 Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and [ascending] sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. ................
