Obtenha a appJoshua - VS the WorldExemplo
When the Bible talks about the world, it implies more than just the created planet we call Earth. There is a human, physical, moral, temporal, and future world. When we discuss the world as an enemy, we are primarily alluding to the parts that are hostile towards God.
God created the physical world through the Word, and He invites us to join Him in creation by worshiping Him. But this world is now hostile territory occupied against God. Not only is it a sworn enemy of Jesus followers, but the paradise God created is the battlefield into which King Jesus calls us.
Where do we start? How can we begin to change a world whose very existence defines opposition to God? The answer lies in a very familiar verse…
“For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life” – John 3:16
Challenge:
- Memorize John 16:33
- Have you ever seen love defeat an enemy?
- You were once an enemy of God, how did God defeat you?
Sobre este plano
We have three enemies, the world, the flesh, and the deceiver. In the book of Joshua, Jericho represents the world. God trained Israel in the wilderness, baptized them in the Jordan, and circumcised them as they camped before the locked gates of Jericho. How would they overcome Jericho? How do we overcome the world? This in-depth stand-alone plan is also part 5 of a 10-part series.
