The Journey by Dr. Abidan Shah
This weekend, our message will focus on expanding what our teenagers learned this weekend. We will take a look at different moments in Moses’ life and the Israelites’ journey through the wilderness. God was faithful to them every step of the way, guiding them through the unknown and meeting their needs. The title of this weekend’s message is “THE JOURNEY.”
HOW TO DEAL WITH THE FORBIDDEN FRUIT
It’s great to be back home in the Good Ole USA! As you know, Nicole and I went on an educational tour of Israel. Words cannot describe how amazing this trip was! To name just a few of the highlights —
we sailed across the Sea of Galilee,
– we stood on Har Megiddo (Armageddon) which will be the site of the final showdown,
– we drove through the wilderness where the children of Israel wandered for 40 years,
– we prayed by the Western Wall
– and, among many many other places, we saw the Mount of Temptation near Jericho in the Judean desert.
This weekend I will preaching on the temptation of Christ in our series on the life of Christ. The message is titled “HOW TO DEAL WITH THE FORBIDDEN FRUIT.”
OUT WITH THE OLD, IN WITH THE NEW
We come to that point in our series on the Life of Christ when John the Baptist came on the scene. This was a major shift in God’s plan of redemption. All the anticipation of the centuries had come to a head. Centuries of darkness and eerie silence were about to be shattered. This was a new day of fulfillment and joy! The Prince of Peace was at the gates!
So also in our lives – the Old Year has come to an end and a New Year is at the gates. God is getting ready to do something in our lives, family, and church that are beyond our greatest imagination! Are you ready for Him?!!
