Flourishing in Famine

Do you take notes when you hear your pastor's sermon? To be honest, I don't do that enough. Our pastors spend time listening to God all week, and get a specific word for us weekly. If we don't take notes we will forget by that Sunday afternoon. We should honor God and our pastor by taking notes each Sunday.

Here are some notes from Pastor Brock Lillis this past Sunday at Bethel Murfreesboro.

Our sermon series that we're currently going through is called "The Blessed Life". The title of this sermon was Flourishing in Famine. 

These are just some bullet points that I personally don't want to forget.

  • Hearing precedes having
  • Live by what God says not by what you see
  • Walk on the Word more than the water. Peter walked on water by Jesus word, but began to sink when he looked at the water.
  • Fear is how the enemy's kingdom works. Faith is how God's kingdom works
  • In a famine you'll have fear and die, or faith and flourish
  • Faith always puts God first
  • No famine in heaven. We have access to heaven
  • Either we will worship money or use money to worship
I'm going to try and be more proactive at taking notes during the sermon. I encourage you to do the same. How many sermons do we wish we could remember?
