CONNECT WITH GOD

Connections – Part 1

Scott Young.com – Pastor of Hope

SOME PEOPLE HAVE A HARD TIME CONNECTING WITH GOD BECAUSE ...

• They Don’t Know Who God Is

• They Feel God Has Hurt Them

• They Don’t Feel Good Enough For God

• They Are Living A “My Way” Life

CONNECTING WITH GOD

1. Look Into The Book

2 Timothy 3:16 - All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, [17] that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.

2. Live In The Place of Grace

Titus 3:5 – (God) saved us, not because of the righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He washed away our sins, giving us a new birth and new life through the Holy Spirit. [6] He generously poured out the Spirit upon us through Jesus Christ our Savior. [7] Because of his grace he declared us righteous and gave us confidence that we will inherit eternal life. (NLT)

3. Practice Daily Prayer 

Psalm 46:10 - Be still, and know that I am God.

Psalm 145:18 - The Lord is near to all who call upon Him.

4. Start To Serve

Mark 10:43 - Whoever desires to become great among you shall be your servant.

Matthew 25:40 - “Whenever you did it for any of my people, no matter how unimportant they seemed, you did it for me.” (CEV)
