| Another Sermon Outline by Brian A. Yeager |
| Moved by Faith |
I. Introduction: Hebrews 11:7
II. Body: Instead of moving by faith, too many are stilled by doubt (Matthew 14:22-33).
- A. Any Bible student can see clearly that faith causes action (Acts 8:12, Hebrews 11,
and James 2:21-24).
- 1. Faith is about believing and doing (II Corinthians 4:13-14).
2. Faith produces confidence coupled with action (II Corinthians 5:5-11).
- B. Faith doesn’t produce doubt and staggering (Romans 4:16-22).
- 1. See what faith can cause in you (Ephesians 3:11-21).
2. Failures come when faith fails (Hebrews 3:14-19).
3. When we come to the Lord we cannot waver (Hebrews 10:22-23 and James
1:5-8).
II. Body: Instead of moving by faith, too many are stilled by doubt (Matthew 14:22-33).
- A. We’ll go so far, then we can name all of the reasons we can’t do the rest (Hebrews
11:24-27 and Exodus 3:11; 3:13; 4:1; 4:10).
- 1. How can Christians forget why they can (Philippians 4:13; cf. John 15:5)?
2. God hasn’t given us the spirit of fear (II Timothy 1:7).
- B. Instead of dropping things and doing the Lord’s will, people are worried about laying
in store for tomorrow (Matthew 6:34 and Luke 12:22-31).
- 1. Think of those “Christians” that are in an area without a sound congregation,
won’t start one, and won’t move (Luke 14:33; cf. Matthew 9:9, Philippians 3:
7-8, and Matthew 19:16-29).
2. Think of those who have anything standing between they and God, but won’t
move it aside (Hebrews 12:1-2).
- a. Family and friends (Luke 21:15-17).
b. Work (Matthew 4:18-20).
c. Sin (Romans 6:16; cf. I John 3:4).
- 3. Remember, “talk is cheap” (Matthew 23:2-4).
- C. We have to be finishers (John 8:30-31, Colossians 1:21-23, and James 1:25).
- 1. Are you one who trips, falls, and stays down (Psalms 20:7-8, Proverbs 24:
16, and Micah 7:5-8)?
2. With the Lord, you can be a finisher (II Corinthians 1:8-10).
- A. Let’s not be of those who draw back (Hebrews 10:38-39).
B. Hebrews 6:9-12
