You can leave a spiritual legacy. Today you are writing the chapters that will be told of you, long after you are gone. There will be a service for you one day, in which eulogies, memories, and stories will be told. The life you live today determines what story lives on.
Main Points:
1. Everyone’s life has a story. Everyone leaves a legacy. Some leave a great testimony and inspire others to follow in their footsteps. Others make poor choices in their lives, and their legacy is filled with pain and sorrow.
2. Over the years I have met a lot of Christians who started well. You could say they’re on fire for God. They love God. They want to learn, they want to grow, and they want to be used by God. But somewhere along the line as years go by they get distracted or they get sidelined or they get tripped up by somebody else. Some people do not finish life well, the way God intended for them to.
3. I want to stand before Jesus Christ one day and hear him say, “You did it! You did a good job! Well done good and faithful servant.” I don’t want to just to start well, and just to grow a little bit spiritually. I want you to hear God say, “Good job! Well done! You finished the race that I put you on earth to do.”
Today’s Scripture Verses:
Deuteronomy 34:10-12 - “Since then, no prophet has risen in Israel like Moses, whom the Lord knew face to face, who did all those signs and wonders the Lord sent him to do in Egypt—to Pharaoh and to all his officials and to his whole land. For no one has ever shown the mighty power or performed the awesome deeds that Moses did in the sight of all Israel.”
Hebrews 11:24-26 - “By faith Moses, when he had grown up, refused to be known as the son of Pharaoh’s daughter. He chose to be mistreated along with the people of God rather than to enjoy the fleeting pleasures of sin. He regarded disgrace for the sake of Christ as of greater value than the treasures of Egypt, because he was looking ahead to his reward.”
