April 14, 2024 - Book of Romans Introduction - Who Is Your Master?
Who is your master?
We are all slaves to something or someone
Are you living as a slave to your past?
Some abuse or unfairness you have not let go of?
Are those feelings controlling you, destroying your peace, robbing you of purpose?
We must change from slave thinking to overcomer, freedman thinking!
* I cannot control what has happened in the past (the pain is real)
* I cannot control what is happening in our world (constant daily stressors)
* I cannot control how others respond to what is happening in our world
* I cannot control (the sky is falling) someone else (nor do I want to) Impact, yes! Control, no!
** What I can control is me - my responses, in the now!
Paul, speaking of the abuse of the Jewish leaders:
“ . . . . I consider everything a loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things, I consider them garbage, that I may gain Christ.” ( Philippians 3: 8 ) NIV
All the stuff of life is secondary to knowing Christ!
Jesus is my power source, my peace source, my hope source, my change source!
Is Jesus really your Master, or is some event or someone in your past your master?
Is Jesus really in control of your life?
What master controls you when your foundations are shaken?
WHO IS YOUR MASTER?
HOPEFULLY, YOU CAN SAY WITH VIGOR . . . . .
THE LORD JESUS CHRIST!!
