Walk Courageously Against the Crowd - Genesis 6

Taught on

Stress is the result of what the pressures of life can do to the emotional makeup of a person. When the pressure builds, we feel the need to release it. A number of options are available: exercise, counseling, yelling, or conforming to the pressure. Peer pressure is one of life's strongest forces. Every day we make choices based on it. Is it possible to walk with God when the pressure of the crowd is to walk in the other direction?

  1. Noah's World (Genesis 6:5-7; vv. 11-12)

  2. Noah's Walk (Genesis 6:8-9)

  3. Noah's Willingness (Genesis 6:13-22)

Questions for Discussion:
  1. A fun group project would be to find current newspaper headlines that correspond to the description of the world of Noah's day in verses 5-7 and 11-12. Then think of an example of people who have stood tall and walked against the flow - it could even be an example from your own life.

  2. Think of the last time you were ridiculed by unbelievers for doing what you believed to be the will of God. Your obedience to God, though scorned, was evidence of your faith. When does that kind of living pay off?

  3. Memorize Romans 12: 1-2.

Step Into the Son-Light
1 John 1:5-7
Skip Heitzig
Info
Message Summary
I love early mornings when the sun first comes up over the eastern sky. The light filters its way into windows and through neighhorhoods; life gets under way. Most of life's activities are performed under some kind of light. There is a spiritual analogy in our "Walk with God." We walk best in His light. Called out of a life of spiritual darkness, we now see the path clearly.

When Christians Walk In Love
Ephesians 5:1-7
Skip Heitzig
Info
Message Summary
Love for others is the exact opposite of selfish living. It also happens to be the birthmark that betrays us as being God's people. Ask anyone on the street what they would expect Christians to be like and the word love will inevitably come up in their answer. To walk with God means to walk in love. When we do that, we will be:

Are You Walking Worthy?
Ephesians 4:1-7
Skip Heitzig
Info
Message Summary
When we set out to walk with God we are never alone. There are others on the same path that are moving in the same direction. It's this corporate rather than individual walk that we consider today. Getting along with others can be difficult. Getting along with others in the church is essential!

The Walk of Fruitfulness
Galatians 5:22-25
Skip Heitzig
Info
Message Summary
How do I know that I'm really walking with God? That's been the subject of our series the last many weeks. The answer has been multifaceted. But what evidence is there that unmistakably demonstrates that I am placing my footsteps in His footprints? The Bible calls it "fruit" and everyone walking with God will manifest it somehow!

Watch Your Step
Galatians 5:19-21; 5:24
Skip Heitzig
Info
Message Summary
To walk in the Spirit is to pay close attention to your direction and destination. Every .path has certain obstacles - rough terrain that hampers visibility and progress. On the "Highway of Righteousness" the potholes and debris can come from within our own selves - the flesh! That "Old Nature" we were born with manifests itself with a fierce competition that must be dealt with.

Walking, Talking, and Enjoying Heartburn!
Luke 24:13-32
Skip Heitzig
Info
Message Summary
On a stretch of country road, somewhere between Jerusalem and Emmaus, two discouraged disciples had an encounter that would change their lives and rock their world.  From despondency to delight, from disappointment to discovery, after Jesus came alongside them, these two guys were never the same.  What made the difference?  Jesus did! He walked with them, and made the familiar things of Scripture brand new.

A Stroll In the Storm
Matthew 14:22-32
Skip Heitzig
Info
Message Summary
David said that even if he made his bed in hell, God would be with him (Psalm 139:8). You can never escape God's presence. But why would "Loving God" allow you to experience the heartache and pain of life's storms? Could there be more to those storms than meets the eye?

Walk While Bending Low
Micah 6:1-8
Skip Heitzig
Info
Message Summary
"Order in the Court! The Court will now hear the case of Sovereign God versus the nation Israel."  That's how this section of the Old Testament is laid out - it's an oracle written ancient legal format.  Here we learn that when we "walk with God," pride must always be guarded against. The Christian must cultivate humility.

Walking Off Course
Jeremiah 9:12-14
Skip Heitzig
Info
Message Summary
The last several weeks we've looked at those who "Walked with God". Through the daily grind of life, with people who hardly think about God, these folks pursued God with a passion. But what happens when one doesn't? What are the downward steps of a person or nation when they don't "Walk with God"? God outlines the steps of a nation that walked off course.

Walking Through Death Valley
Psalm 23
Skip Heitzig
Info
Message Summary
You've heard the saying, "Death and taxes are inevitable." Someone commenting on this axiom remarked, "Maybe death and taxes are inevitable, but death doesn't get worse every time Congress meets!" Maybe so, but Scripture does teach that death is the Last Enemy! It's the place where everyone will walk - until the coming of Christ. On this path there are certainties and possibilities.

Walking in Dad's Footsteps
1 Kings 3:3-14
Skip Heitzig
Info
Message Summary
The old saying, "Like father like son" is never truer than when applied to David and Solomon. Like his father, Solomon walked with God. Like his father, Solomon failed his God. This is both a warning and an encouragement. It's a warning in that no matter what our background or previous spiritual history, going astray can ruin it all. It's an encouragement in that you don't have to wander - you can make a stand. You can walk with God. You can finish well!

Learning to Walk at Ninety-Nine!
Genesis 17
Skip Heitzig
Info
Message Summary
When our son was being transformed from infant to toddler he, like every child, was struggling to learn how to walk. After months of unsure footing his steps gradually became more firm, he gained confidence and then became the undisputed expert at "ambulatory exercise" (walking). You might say Abraham is a late bloomer – he's just learning to walk before God with any measure of consistency. (It's about time - he's 99 years old in this chapter.)

When God Walked with Men
Genesis 3:1-13
Skip Heitzig
Info
Message Summary
Today I begin a new series about what it means to walk with God. Rather than going through one book of the Bible or a section of chapters we will explore, throughout Scripture, the concept of people who walked with God and what that means to us. We start today at the beginning with the first man and woman - the crown of God's creation. God wanted to walk with them in fellowship, but something disrupted it all and we've had problems ever since!
