Advent

The Asa Challenge

Message Handout


2 Chronicles 16:9 (NLT) — 9 The eyes of the LORD search the whole earth in order to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to him. 

Three challenges for next year:

Challenge # 1 - START STRONG

2 Chronicles 15:1–2 (NLT) — 1 Then the Spirit of God came upon Azariah son of Oded, 2 and he went out to meet King Asa as he was returning from the battle. “Listen to me, Asa!” he shouted. “Listen, all you people of Judah and Benjamin! The LORD will stay with you as long as you stay with him! Whenever you seek him, you will find him. But if you abandon him, he will abandon you.

Challenge #2 - DON’T LET PEACE ROB YOUR PASSION

Challenge #3 - RELY ON GOD FOR EVERYTHING

2 Chronicles 16:12–13 (NLT) — 12 In the thirty-ninth year of his reign, Asa developed a serious foot disease. Yet even with the severity of his disease, he did not seek the LORD’s help but turned only to his physicians. 13 So he died in the forty-first year of his reign.
