Parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus

Part 5

I AM PART OF THE BODY (PART 4) 2/2/20
- I will pray for My Church and Our Leaders.

Every time the Israelites were going g to make a decision they would either
- seek to do it their own way = destruction.
- or making plans then asking God to bless it.
- seek council from God = prosperity.

LEADERS SHOULD START EVERYTHING WITH PRAYER.
Better does not = blessed. (Health, Food, Money, House).

Prayer or Fail. It all hinges on prayer.
- Proverbs 3:5-6.

God has to point the way.
Rather than hearing from God, they chose an earthly King.
- We all in our hearts reject God’s kingship and lordship of our lives.
- We choose fo ourselves other kings. That have noting to do with God and everything to do
with our wants. We choose a limited perspective rather than an eternal one.
