Sermon clips from Ponchatoula churches

57s
“And notice this. In the midst of this opposition, in the middle of all of the people who opposed Nehemiah in all of the ways that they opposed him, all the ways you can think of, and then some more. In the middle of all of that, because Nehemiah knew what one thing was truly necessary for him, God gave him the victory. In the middle of the opposition, god gave him the victory. At the exact moment he faced all of this opposition, verse 15 says, the wall was completed. In fifty two days, nothing short of a miracle.”

“When it comes to you and your relationship to the lord Jesus Christ, hide those words in your heart. To those who would pull you away from Christ, to those who would separate you from Jesus, say to them silently in your heart or out loud if you need to. One thing is necessary. I am doing important work here and cannot come down. Why should the work of maintaining my relationship to the lord Jesus Christ? Why should the daily work of my walk with the lord cease while I leave it and go down to you?”

“``What does all of this say to us today? It says that even though we know that one thing is necessary in our lives, following Jesus, the enemy will oppose us in that pursuit. We must recognize, realize, and know the enemy's tactics. And understand that when we seek to live for the lord, it's not just as simple as is making that choice. It's not just as simple as making that declaration. We must continue to move forward and stand for him.”

“You might think that when you know that truth that Jesus shared in his genius way with Martha, you might think that when you discover in your own life that one thing is necessary and that one thing is Jesus, you might think that the battle is over. But it's not. In fact, the battle is just beginning. When you realize and find your one thing with the lord and discover that he is the most important thing in life, you will face opposition.”

“### Quotes for Members1. As we open our lives up to the potter, as we open our lives up to the forming and reforming hands of Almighty God, he knows exactly where to tinker. He knows exactly where to shape. He knows exactly where to mold us.”
19s
“### Quotes for Outreach1. Gods power to reform us, Gods power to reshape us, is stronger than our power to destroy ourselves. God is sovereign. God is determined to be our creator. He works with us as free people.”
