Five Practical Steps for Building Altars
Commitment
- Building family habits of spiritual consistency…takes commitment to say no to lesser things to advance the more important…
- Prioritize spiritual things - don’t let select sports, etc. take top place
Contentment
- Beware of the sin of envy and comparison, the thief of joy…
- Use money to buy more time with your family, not more things
- You have been blessed to be a blessing…
- Haggai 1 - be careful of paneled houses when the house of God isn’t finished!
- Raising Spiritual Champions by George Barna
- Only 8% of young people believe that wealth is given by God to manage for the advancement of God’s kingdom on Earth - they are far more likely to believe that they have earned what they possess and are free to use their wealth as they see fit without regard to spiritual principles or God’s expectations
- Deut. 8:18 - But remember the Lord your God, for it is he who gives you the ability to produce wealth…
Consistency
- Thomas Watson - we call a thing by what it generally is
- David - a man after God’s own heart - massive sin, massive repentance
Communicate
- Listening is more important than talking…learn to listen and hear what is being communicated…
- 2 Samuel 11:3 - And David sent and inquired about the woman. And ONE SAID, “Is not this Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Uriah the Hittite?”
- Learn to listen to things we don’t want to hear…
Care/Compassion
- Love well - care about the well-being of those around you…
- Do the little things to make their situation better
- Don’t settle for the shortcuts - JFK, we go to the moon because it is hard
