Are You tagging God In?
Nacho Libre Scene (Tap me in)
- In this scene there is difficulty
- And to help fight the opponent he taps Nacho in.
I know its corny, but I want to look at scripture to help us better understand a life where we don’t tap God in and a life where we do.
15 And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body. And be thankful. 16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God. 17 And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.
Science Experiment
You are like this bottle
Constantly walking through life being filled.
What you are filled with is determined by things like; your parents, your friends, the music you listen to, your interest.
You are going to see that what this bottle gets filled with has effects.
Just like what we allow to influence us has effects.
1/2 cup of peroxide
Represents peace that everyone desires
15 And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body. And be thankful.
Paul tells us here that peace can only come from God, yet so many people search for it other avenues.
4 drops of food coloring
Represents what we allow to influence us
16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God.
Paul tells us here that we need to dwell in the word of God letting its truth influence us,
But yet so many people allow music, friends, relationships, and the misleading voice of this world to influence them.
2 table spoons of dish soap
Represents what we praise
17 And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.
Paul tells us here that we are to only praise God, our heavenly father,
but yet so many people direct their praise to finite objects and beings that are not worthy of praise.
Bottle with out yeast
You being a good Christian and going to church, having the head knowledge of the bible stories, and maybe even thinking that you are saved.
This is you...
You sit here in the motions of religion and then wonder why God is not working in your life.
15 “ ‘I know your works: you are neither cold nor hot. Would that you were either cold or hot! 16 So, because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of my mouth.
A packet of Yeast
Represents Christ living through you
9 Therefore my heart is glad, and my whole being rejoices;
my flesh also dwells secure.
10 For you will not abandon my soul to Sheol,
or let your holy one see corruption.
11 You make known to me the path of life;
in your presence there is fullness of joy;
at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.
