The Mind of a Disciple

• 26:17Hebrews 11

  Church, faithfulness is greater than fame. And the writer of Hebrews does the same exact thing for us. Hebrews 11 is this hall of faith. And the writer of Hebrews gives you some very famous Yahweh-focused people. People like Abel, who offered a pleasing sacrifice to the Lord. People like Noah, who faithfully built an ark when there was no rain.

The Mind of a Disciple

• 15:39Hebrews 11

  …like Thomas. I could only see what was right in front of me. So, Thomas was like me, convinced his way was the best. He was confident that the words of others of, "We've actually seen him." Couldn't be true. So, in Hebrews 11, verse 1. Now, faith is the reality of what it's hoped for and the proof of what is not seen.

Hidden Revealed

• 39:23Hebrews 11

  Because my presence is the greatest reward you will ever have in your life. Do not give up. Do not give up. Do not grow weary. It's a reminder in Hebrews 11. Faith is the reality of what we hope for. It is the proof of what is not seen. And it is by faith that our ancestors were accepted and approved.

Troubled Heart

• 23:21Hebrews 11

  Why would God raise him up? Well, never forget in the book of Hebrews, we see Barack again. Do you want to know the rest of the story? Okay, good. Hebrews says this about Barack. Remember Hebrews 11, 12 is the, it's the, this is the hall of fame, of faith. Moses, Abraham, Elijah. And in this, the writer of Hebrews says, 1132, what more can I say?

UNDEFEATED

• 34:24Hebrews 11

  He sent His son Jesus, not for the 99, but to find the one lost. And that is us. That is you. Remember the story of Rahab. But the story doesn't end in Joshua. There's so much more to Rahab's life. I want us to think really quick about Hebrews chapter 11. Today's message that I didn't share earlier was from shame to fame.

• 35:20Hebrews 11

  Maybe you grew up poor or you are poor and you just feel like, "I'll never shake that label and God will never use me because of this." Maybe you have a past that is difficult to think about. Can I tell you what happens to Rahab? Hebrews 11 says this about her life. The shameful lady, shameful past, shameful occupation. Hebrews 11, which is called the Hall of Faith.

UNDEFEATED

• 16:05Hebrews 11

  This is why Hebrews chapter 11 tells us, we're going to see in several weeks, that the walls of Jericho came tumbling down. Why? Because by faith, the walls of Jericho fell down after they marched. You will never receive God's promises in your life. You will never experience spiritual breakthrough, boundary crossing, unless you exercise your faith. Do you see the sequence of the word?

2020 Vision

• 25:03Hebrews 11

  Get on the Bible reading plan. We've provided one in our worship guide. Get in a program where you put the word of God in your heart. For me, it was Hebrews 11. That without faith, it is impossible to please God. Devote yourselves to the word. Be people of the book for his glory in your good. The mission of God takes devotion to the right things. And this devotion is powerful. As we're going to see, devotion to God is, is powerful.

Leviticus

• 9:47Hebrews 11

  reminds us that it is by grace and faith that God's people are his people. You say, well, how do you get that? Well, Hebrews 11 tells us this, that by faith, the people of God crossed the Red Sea. And though they were on dry land, God provided. By faith, they crossed the Red Sea. That's pre-Leviticus. Hebrews chapter 11, same verse, reminds us that by faith, the walls of Jericho came crumbling down.

• 10:06Hebrews 11

  Hebrews chapter 11, same verse, reminds us that by faith, the walls of Jericho came crumbling down. That's in Joshua. That's after Leviticus. God is screaming at us, even through the Old Testament. It is not about what you do. It's about what he has done. And that's key. That is not a New Testament concept. Grace and mercy is cemented in Leviticus. This is all about maintaining relationship,

Genesis (Foundations)

• 5:38Hebrews 11

  As if we need another reminder. Saying to us, Noah's faith was shown by what he did. This is what Hebrews 11, 7 reminds us. This is the hall of faith. By faith Noah, being divinely warned of things not yet seen, moved with godly fear, prepared an ark for the saving of his household, by which he commanded the world, or condemned the world, and became heir of righteousness, which is according to faith.

• 6:01Hebrews 11

  By faith Noah, being divinely warned of things not yet seen, moved with godly fear, prepared an ark for the saving of his household, by which he commanded the world, or condemned the world, and became heir of righteousness, which is according to faith. Hebrews 11, 7 reminds us, this is how you know Noah's faith. Because he did what with the ark? He prepared the ark. Your faith, true faith, has always worked out in your obedience.

• 25:02Hebrews 11

  …and all these things shall be added unto Him. Matthew 6, 7, 7 says, and I, and, and, and, and I will be asked, and it will be given to you. Seek, and you will find it. Knock, and the door will be opened to you. Hebrews 11, that great heroes of the faith. Without faith, it is impossible to please God. So, when we trust God, we got to trust Him by faith. When Dr. Josh shows up here in January, should the Lord tarry, and he shows up here to…

  …he owns the time. He created the time. We shouldn't worry about the timely. Now, turn with me to Hebrews chapter 12, one of my favorite passages. Hebrews chapter 12. You'll know this. Hebrews chapter 12. Follows Hebrews chapter 11. Here we go. Listen to what it says. Therefore, since you have so great cloud of witnesses surrounding us, let us also lay aside every incumbents and the sin which so easily entangles us.
