I know I kind of covered this already but I’ll explain again where burn the ships came from.
It comes from 1519 during the Spanish conquest of Mexico, when Hernán Cortés the Spanish commander, scuttled his ships so that his men would have to conquer or die. Basically, he created a point of no return for himself and his men.
We talked about how God created a point of no return for the Hebrew Slaves leaving Egypt in the Exodus but now I want to change it up for tonight. Sometimes burning your ships isn’t about erasing your past but embracing your future and following Jesus.
