When God Rebuilds Your House #14 Acts 8: 4-25

Declaration I have come to receive the Word of God. I accept its authority over my life—to transform my thoughts and actions, and so receive all the blessings God has in store for me.

Intro “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times,” -Charles Dickens

Imagine the horrible: loss of home, job, and have to flee to another place. It must surely be the worst of times.

Acts 8 Story of Philip and the other disciples Story of Simon Story of Peter (and John) Story of the Samaritans

How did the worst of times turn into the best of times?

Matthew 6 31 So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat Matthew 6  31 So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32 For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. 33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. 

God is no man’s debtor

WHEN YOU SEEK FIRST THE KINGDOM OF GOD, YOU GROW UP SPIRITUALLY Good News going to the Samaritans 5 Philip went down to a city in Samaria and proclaimed the Messiah there.  25 After they had further proclaimed the word of the Lord and testified about Jesus, Peter and John returned to Jerusalem, preaching the gospel in many Samaritan villages.

WHEN YOU SEEK FIRST THE KINGDOM OF GOD, GOD REBUILDS YOUR HOUSE Matthew 16 25 If you try to hang on to your life, you will lose it. But if you give up your life for my sake, you will save it. (NLT)

Conclusion Jesus is the master of the broken life Jesus is the master of the surrendered life

Remember the woman at the well

28 Jesus replied, “I assure you that when the world is made new and the Son of Man sits upon his glorious throne, you who have been my followers will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. 29 And everyone who has given up houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or property, for my sake, will receive a hundred times as much in return and will inherit eternal life.30 But many who are the greatest now will be least important then, and those who seem least important now will be the greatest then.

“No eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no mind has imagined 1 Corinthians 2:9 “No eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no mind has imagined what God has prepared for those who love him.”

Matthew 16 25  If you try to hang on to your life, you will lose it. But if you give up your life for my sake, you will save it. (NLT)
