Highlights of Pastor Michael's sermon on March 7, 2009 by Susan Bond
Is the accumulation of the activities of my days achieving my life's goal? Is my life goal big enough for eternity?Paul's life goal is summed up in these words: "For to me to live is Christ." The Lord had all of Paul that there was.
We battle mediocrity, laziness, doubt.... The battle within us must be won before the battles without can be. How to win? The Holy Spirit makes winning possible. Philippians 3 emphasizes that we need to be forgetting what is past and moving forward with intention. We want, like Paul, to be able to say "I have kept the faith," remembering that whatever we do, we must do it for Him (Colossians).
Pastor Michael declared, "You are right with God because of your faith in Jesus. Your salvation and status are gifts from God. We can serve the Lord with joy and delight because we have the assurance of where we're going---life eternal with Him. The Holy Spirit's assignment is to make sure that we pass the finish line."
