Daring Faith: Key To Miracles

April 21, 2024 Pastor Sam Goins

THE DARING FAITH CAMPAIGN

WHAT IS IT?

A two month focus on ________________, _______________ and ____________ in FAITH.

HOW WILL WE BUILD OUR FAITH

By challenging Us to stretch our faith, learn to trust God, take the next step and practice sacrificial generosity like Christ.

• “Let your roots GROW down into him and draw up nourishment from him, so that you will grow in faith, strong and vigorous...” Colossians 2:7 (NLT)

• “Remember this: Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also REAP generously.” 2 Corinthians 9:6

• It was by faith Abraham obeyed God’s call to go to another place God promised to give him. He left his own country, without knowing where he was to GO.” Hebrews 11:8 (NCV)

HOW FAITH IN JESUS TURNS A LITTLE INTO A LOT

1. _____________________________________________________________.

“When Jesus . . . saw a large crowd, he had compassion on them . . . so he began teaching them. By this time it was late in the day, so his disciples came and said, ‘This is a remote place. Send the people away so they can go and buy something to eat.’ But Jesus answered, ‘You give them something to eat!’ They said, ‘That would take eight months of a man’s wages!’”  Mark 6:34-37a (NIV)

2. ____________________________________________________________.

“‘How many loaves do you have?’ Jesus asked. ‘Go and see.’ When they found out, they said, ‘Five small loaves of bread and two fish.’"  Mark 6:38 (NIV)

“Jesus asked this only to test them, for he already had in mind what he was going to do.”  John 6:6 (NIV)

3. ___________________________________________________________.

“Jesus took the five loaves and the two fish . . . He blessed the food and broke the loaves and He kept giving them to the disciples to set before the people . . .” Mark 6:41 (NASB)

The boy gave what he had . . . willingly, cheerfully, & immediately.

4. ___________________________________________________________.

“Everyone ate and had enough. Afterwards they collected 12 baskets full of . . . leftovers!”  Mark 6:42-43 (Ph)
