Always Bearing

Always Bearing 

 

Opening scripture

2 Corinthians 4:10-12 

 

Bearing: To carry continuously

 

Bearing is something that stays with you in every situation, shaping how you respond that others can SEE! 

 

What feels like death in us is producing LIFE in someone else

 

From the Wounds 

Isaiah 50:5,6 

 

He gave His back so we wouldn’t have to

 

He took our shame, so we no longer need to live in it

 

He did not hide His face so we can hold ours high

 

His Rejection Our Reception 

Isaiah 53:3-9 

 

Every stripe, every bruise and every blow was not random. It was substitution!

 

Love is not only words, it suffers

 

Redemption is not only promised, it was purchased

 

Salvation is not only declared, it is carried

 

What are you carrying?

Yourself? Or His Dying? 

 

Only one produce His Life 

 

A Memorial 

Matt 26:6-13 

Pouring Out what others try to Keep!

Matthew 28:1-9 

The Stone Rolled Away, Fear replaced by Joy and Death Defeated 

 

Death in us, Life in You! 

2 Corn 4:12-18

Not Someday! Now, Life is Calling 

John 5:24,25
