Pastor Chris Thostenson

Nehemiah 5
Sermon Highlights:
*What Stops The Work Of God?”*
*Strife among God’s people
*Selfishness – It has no lasting affect
*Pleasing self, not others
Romans 15:1-3 We who are strong ought to bear with the failings of the weak and not to please ourselves. 2 Each of us should please his neighbor for his good, to build him up. 3 For even Christ did not please himself but, as it is written: “The insults of those who insult you have fallen on me.”
*Greed
Proverbs 22:16 He who oppresses the poor to increase his wealth and he who gives gifts to the rich—both come to poverty.
*All that we do with our money is a spiritual decision. It will affect our walk with the Lord.
*How is the money in our life affecting us? Is it for our wants and desires or is it for the Kingdom of God?
*Am I satisfied? Or do I have the desires of the flesh?
