Finding the way to God

Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.

Introduction:
We are living in confusion and deception. Jesus said in Matthew 24:4, 'Take heed that...
no one deceive you. People want to find God, but they seek him through
wrong paths.
the right way that leads us to God

THE POWER OF PRAISE

Echos 16: 22 -28
Introduction.- it is one of the powerful passages that commands us to worship and praise in every
moment of our lives regardless of the situation we find ourselves in.
A clear example is Paul and Silas.
1. WE MUST PRAISE AND WORSHIP IN THE MIDST OF DARKNESS verse 25
We are created to give praise
We think that one should only praise in moments of happiness.
Gratitude reaches the heart of God

THE OTHERS
. The world must hear our praise to God
. Praising Him at all times is a good way to testify to Him.
. Pablo and Silas wanted to please God and they succeeded.
3. PRAISE TRANSCENDS ALL KINDS OF LIMITATIONS AND IS A POWERFUL WEAPON
. When we praise, we go beyond natural limits.
. We enter the spiritual world
. Lives are freed from all oppression

2 CONFRONTING ATTITUDES
ILLUSTRATION: a shoe brand sends 2 sales agents to study the market in
Africa
The first agent: the first thing I notice is that not everyone was wearing shoes, call the boss, he
Don't even think about settling there, we are going to fail.
2nd agent: see everyone without shoes, and says this is going to be crazy we're going to sell
until becoming millionaires, success (imagination)

same event, the same scenery, 2 different attitudes

The Bible speaks to us about the 12 spies. Numbers chapters 13 and 14.

Let's remember (previously) the history of Israel from the 10 plagues to that moment of miracles.
what God accomplished.

we are going to divide into 2 parts: the report of the 10 and the report of the 2 and their attitudes

A. THE REPORT OF THE 10 (numbers 13:27 - 29 and 32 - 33)

Your news has nothing wrong with it.
Verse 31: the problem
BAD ATTITUDE IS THE PROBLEM (verse 31)
They took an attitude
They forgot the deeds of God
For Israel, it was not a story; it was a lived experience.
The 'I can't' entered into them.
A BAD ATTITUDE IS CONTAGIOUS (Numbers 14:1-2)
It was no longer 10, now it is the people
In the current church, something similar happens.
Israel cried and lamented
THEY TOOK A PROHIBITED ATTITUDE
Let's designate a captain (overthrow him)
Let's return to Egypt = world
They disregarded all authority of Moses (Romans 13:1)
In other words, they implied that the Devil is a better master.
They forgot about God
B. THE REPORT OF THE 2 (numbers 14:6-9)
A good attitude is synonymous with faith.
They recognize the bad side
They know and remember that Jehovah is with them (Joshua 1:9)
believe in God = faith
A good attitude attracts problems
. Many will not agree
. They are accused
. The people wanted to kill them (lynch them)
. They try to change their attitude.
 A good attitude has its reward
Shape your character
prophets declare for their lives
the only ones from all those people who entered the promised land
the rest will come as a bonus

CONCLUSION..-we see 2 opposing attitudes

¤ Which attitude are you going to believe?

5. Consecration
WHAT DO I DO WITH WHAT GOD GIVES ME
GENERAL THEME: Talents
SPECIFIC THEME: The talents that God gives me.
I. INTRODUCTION

Mateo 25:14-30

A. TITLE: WHAT DO I DO WITH WHAT GOD GIVES ME

B. TEXTS:

James 1:5
Mateo 7:13-14
C. INTRODUCTORY PHRASE:
What is the best thing we know how to do or what is our talent?

consequences.
D. PROPOSITION
Today we must truly understand what God demands of us regarding the things He does not give.
E. O.T.
Let's look at a clear example that God gives in His word.

II. DEVELOPMENT
A. GOD GIVES EACH OF US TALENTS AND GIFTS. Matthew 25:14-30
1. A pure gold talent in the time of Jesus was equivalent to ¢208,814,228.64
The man from the parable gave each servant a certain amount of talents according to his
capacity, with the aim of having them cared for and put to work.
3. When it is said that money is going to be put to work, it means it will be invested to have more.
The servants with 5 and 2 talents traded and doubled the money.
5. How are we investing what God gives us to double it?
God will settle accounts with us.
7. Those who invested well, were faithful in little and in much would be put.
8. He who did not want to invest it judged his Lord, and took away everything from him.
Someone who does not invest what God gives them is a useless servant.
B. GOD GIVES ME THE WISDOM I NEED
James 1:5
To know how to invert what God gives us, we need WISDOM.
If we ask God for wisdom, He will give it to us abundantly and without reproach.

II. CONCLUSION

A. RECAPITULATION
God gives each of us talents and gifts.
GOD GIVES ME THE WISDOM I NEED
