Putting God in His Place
(1 Samuel 5:1-12)
Main Idea:
The only way to conquer life is to let yours be captured by Jesus Christ.
-
Wherever God goes…
…other gods are sure to fall.
…sin won’t be able to stand.
…cries go up to heaven.
How have you put God in a box - to manipulate, minimize, or distance yourself from him in some way?
>> What would happen if you simply “let” God be himself?
Who or what is God’s biggest competition for glory in life?
>> Obvious false gods? Other spiritual powers and practices?
>> Subtle ones? “Christian” superstitions, “helpful” things, etc.?
What about God would you like to censor, avoid, or rewrite?
>> What part of you would feel better if God changed? Why?
How can Jesus turn any dread of God’s arrival into delight?
