Sermon Title: "Crushing It!"

Sermon Title: "Crushing It!"

What does it mean to be crushing it? Although it is true that everyone has their own idea of success, the ultimate achievement can only be obtained through God. In other words, it is not enough to be successful if such success does not fall in line with God's plan for our lives. In a sermon titled, "Crushing It!", Pastor Ben Towell will help us examine three self identifying questions to help us discern if we are truly crushing it for Jesus.

Overview: How do you know when you’re crushing it? What does it look like when you, not only achieve your desired goal, but also supersede all expectations?

Direction: Today, we will examine three questions that will help us identify if we are truly crushing it. We will discover what it looks like to lean on Jesus in times of battle (even spiritual battles), as well as how to lead others by godly influence.
I. Can you say, “Look at me, and do likewise”? (v. 16-17)
Two factors:

1. The right kind of tools.
2. The right kind of teamwork.
II. Do you fight for yourself or for the Lord? (v. 18-20)
III. Will you strive to be long-lasting? (v. 21-25)
We must...

1. Let God move us forward.
2. Let God motivate each footstep.
Destination: True success is not about what we can do for ourselves but about what God can do through those who trust in Him. Let us be like Gideon and lead in a way that is worthy to the calling that we have received.

Reflection: Use the private notes section below or your personal journal to put the message of these verses into your own words so you can communicate them with others.

Your voice matters! (see Mark 16:15)
