Change Before You Have To
Sermon: Start With A Little
2 Kings 4:1-7
Sermon Summary
The Big Idea of this message is that when we are looking for change, God often asks us to start with something small. Small decisions, small changes. We know that when we do an act of faith God is faithful.
This is our second week of our series on Elisha. This week we told a story of a poor widow who found herself in a tough situation. She was in a situation that if she didn’t get some help quickly something drastic would happen. She found Elisha and he asked great questions, encouraged her to take a step of faith and God came through for her.
There might be times we need to start with something small, and take a step of faith. We’ll see that when we take a step of faith, we’ll see God come through as faithful.
Questions for Discussion:
Talk about a time in your life where God did a lot with a little. What did you learn during that situation?
Why do you think that it is hard to see what we have during difficult times?
How have you seen God's faithfulness in your life after you’ve taken a step of faith?
Troy said, “action is always connected to change and miracles.” Do you agree or disagree with this statement? How have you seen it happen in your life?
What small step are you going to do this week that’s going to lead to something much bigger?
