Title: What We Want Isn't Always What We Need
Text: 1 Samuel 8:1-22
We pursue what we desire (1 Sam. 8:1-8).
We end up paying for our selfish pursuits (1 Sam. 8:9-17).
We don't want to be comformed to God (1 Sam. 19-21).
God lets us make choices but we'll have consequences (1 Sam. 8:22-9:2).
- God lets us make choices but He redeems them to bring about His will.
What we need is not conformity to the world but conformity to Jesus.
Takeaways:
1) Place your wants and desire at the feet of king Jesus.
2) Lean into your identity in Jesus.
