The Elements Submit and Bring Glory to Christ

EARTH - I Corinthians 10:3-4  Christ the Rock

The speaker talked about Moses striking the rock in the wilderness and about the wise man building his house upon the rock.  Jesus is our rock and our foundation.  Christ provides all that we need.
Psalms 61:2

Song:  I Go to the Rock

WIND - Nahum 1:3 God has His way in the whirlwind.  Matthew 8:24-27.  The speaker spoke of our temptation to quake when we experience storms.  They shared the only safe place is in the "eye" of the storm.  The eye of the storm is a place of peace and refuge.  Christ is our "eye" in the storm.  We must move with the storm if we are to remain within the eye.  It is not a passive place but one of courage and boldness in the midst of the storm, which gives you VICTORY!

Song:  I Know the Master of the Wind

FIRE - Matthew 3:11  He will baptise you with the Holy Ghost and FIRE.  Daniel 3:13-25.  The speaker spoke of the 3 Hebrew children as they experienced the firey trial but they were not alone.  The fourth man was seen walking around was like unto the Son of God.  We are not alone when we got through firey trials.  We have someone with us who has already won the victory.  The Hebrew children came out of this firey trial without even the smell of smoke upon them.

Song:  He is Still in the Fire

WATER - John 4:1-9  Living Water.  This story is of the Woman at the Well.  If we will only partake of that living water from Christ.  Did you remember how the woman RAN (like an overflowing river) to others to tell them of what Christ had done for her. (The river was flowing through her now.)

Song:  There is a River

The four most powerful elements of our world are: Earth, Wind, Fire, and Water. We have seen how these elements submit and bring glory to Christ.  There is still yet an even more power available to us. That is LOVE.  Love supersedes the laws of nature.  Christ proved that Love passes all understanding and made pure LOVE availabe to everyone through the cross.

HEART:  Ephesians 3:14-19; Philippians 3:10; John 3:16-17  All we need is Christ.  He is our ROCK.  He controls the WIND.  He is victorious over the FIRE.  He is our living WATER. Christ has been given power over all but there is still one place that He would like to be invited...that place is in your heart! 

Call for Prayer:

If you have not invited Christ to live within your heart and submitted to Him...seek Him...and you will find Him.  Don't wait too late...today is a GREAT day to come to know the LORD! Today, right NOW, is the DAY of SALVATION!

If you are a disciple of Christ, please, be in prayer for souls to be reached for Christ.  Remember our missionary's, and their family's, on the fields of labor.



Song:  In Christ Alone
