Rumble Strip : week 3

Levi Lusko - Fresh Life Church

Ten And Two

Ephesians 5:14-21

Tell 3 people where you're going to be and when you expect to be back.

Who goes looking for you when you're in danger??

Wake up O sleeper!! You're foolish if you think the present isn't going to affect your future!

Rumble Strips save lives.

Exterior rumble strips of the people in our lives.

Time is short. Redeem the time because the days are evil.

Time is wicked fast.

Life expectancy :

81 women

76 men

VS21 Submitting to one another out of reverence to Christ.

Reverence meaning smitten and enamored and in awe.

The behavior leads to the blessings.

Submission : voluntarily place yourself under someone's authority.

When you're following the right voices you avoid the wrong places.

Intentionally make it as hard as possible to ruin your life!

We need to have:

1. The Right People

The core voices in our lives.

You're loco if you're living solo!

Jesus had His 12 and then He had His core 3 within that.

Helping shape your decisions + values.

Nothing is going to shape and impact the trajectory of your life more than who you do life with.

Proverbs 13:20

"Show me your friends and I'll show you your future." Craig Groeschel

1 Corinthians 15:33 

When you're living with the wrong people they're rumbling the wrong things.

This life is an assignment.

2. The Right Spirit

Calm down porcupine!

Proverbs 16:18

You're resisting the opportunity to grow.

Humility.

Grateful heart.

Thank you! You didn't have to say that, and I know that must have been hard.

Proverbs 27:17

3. The Right Questions

Force it to the light!

Will you rumble this because you know me!

What do you think is the most God-honoring decision?

Proverbs 20:5

Accept recommendations instead of seeking affirmations on decisions you've already made!

It's a two-way street.

Others rumble you and you rumble others. 

See something, say something.

Will you love me enough to say something when you see me making bad decisions?

Is there anyone that is going to search for you when you're lost in the forest?

4. The Right Posture

Love.

Speak the truth in love.

Galatians 6:1 "Live creatively, friends. If someone falls into sin, forgivingly restore him, saving your critical comments for yourself. You might be needing forgiveness before the day's out."

Eye to eye.

Make it as easy as possible for them to receive your rumble well.

Numbers 13:25 to 14:10

10 said "no" and 2 said, "let's go!"

The enemy doesn't want you to get to the promised land!!
