Winter Bible Seminar 2011- Tuesday
Tuesday, February 22. In the 8:30 a.m. session, Jeanne Orrison laid out God’s Pathway to Life. Third John 2 says, “Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers” (NKJV). God doesn’t mince words. He tells us exactly what kind of life He wants us to have: abundantly prosperous, with “running over” blessings. When we believe in Jesus, God takes us off the path of darkness and puts us on His ever-brighter path. And He tells us in His Word how to have a good trip on that path. “God wants us to prosper in all things,” Rev. Orrison said. “But not only does He want us to prosper—He wants us in health.”
In the 9:30 a.m. service, Bob Keich asked the congregation, “What are you submitting your life to? Are you submitting your life to the Word and the Spirit of God?” He talked about how today’s society is driven by what we think and desire. “Submission isn’t something our flesh yearns for,” he said. “But submission is a plan of God for you to walk in blessing.”
