Unashamed - Session 5


UNASHAMED ONLINE BIBLE STUDY
Session 5
Highly Unlikely





As unbelievable as it sounds, here we are in Session 5 of the Unashamed study! I’m so excited to tackle this week and then look back at all that we learned, all the baggage we dropped, and all that God has ahead for us! This week we’re going to remember that it’s all about Jesus, not us. Our past doesn’t dictate what God will do in us and through us. Christine’s message for us is such a powerful encouragement – God has and will always use highly unlikely people to accomplish highly unlikely things for His glory. That means that God can use me and God can use you. He’s got a bigger plan that we can even imagine!

God doesn’t ever call the qualified. He qualifies the called. — Christine Caine

Observe — Our theme this week is Jesus knows our junk. He looks at us and says, “Perfect! What a masterpiece! You’re just who I need for this work!”
 
God wants the world to see what He can do through people whose trust is in Him alone.

Bible — Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight. Proverbs 3:5-6

Good Friday

  Happy Good Friday   This is the day that we remember what Jesus did for us --- enduring beating, mocking, and being crucified.   I imagine his disciples did not consider it to be a “good” Friday at the time. But what makes it GOOD is what happened on Sunday --- when Jesus did the impossible and rose from the dead.    Knowing that you were ransomed from the futile ways inherited from your forefathers, not with perishable things such as silver or gold, but with the precious blood of Christ, like that of a lamb without blemish or spot.  ~ 1 Peter 1:18-19 ESV   One of the best ways of celebrating Jesus and His Resurrection…is through family traditions.    Family traditions can be as simple as attending  ️  church and having lunch or brunch together.    Jesus was a story-teller. I believe he knew the power of a story to capture hearts and bring joy while effectively delivering a specific message. He often used parables to teach.  Do you have a favorite Bible Story or family tradition? A G

Why God Wants to Bless You!

  Why God Wants to Bless You!   “For to everyone who has will more be given, and he will have an abundance. But from the one who has not, even what he has will be taken away” (Matthew 25:29, ESV). Do you know that God wants to bless you? He wants you to have abundance, lacking no good thing. But He doesn’t want that for you and me so we can merely enjoy our lives. He wants us to steward our resources so we can be better able to reach out to others and bless them in His name. Jesus said in Matthew 5:16 (ESV),   “…let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.”   The goal is fruitfulness. The goal is God’s Kingdom. The goal is for God’s blessing to flow through us so we might be a blessing to others, to the glory of His name!
