Let Go And Let God.

We had an amazing Father's Day sermon! Very thought-provoking.. by Pastor Ronnie Teoh! :)

SO yes, firstly... HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!!
(to all fathers out there!! haha, and fathers-to-be!)

Let Go, Let God!
So what does it mean to let go?...and let God? READ ON!

The sermon was preached based on Exodus 2:1-10 which is the early life of Moses!

A. The story of Moses in this passage says more than meets the eye!

• Background: The jews in Egypt had grown too numerous. Pharoah commanded all Jewish boys to be killed


• When Moses' parents let God take control, a series of miracles happened in order to preserve the child.

Questions without logical answer:

1. Didn't Pharoah's daughter know about the king's command?
2. What made her defy it?
3. Couldn't she make the connection, that the girl who approached her was Moses' sister?
4. A hebrew woman to nurse the baby, wouldn't it be a conspiracy?
5. Moses' mother got a salary to teach him about their faith in God!
6. A young hebrew raised in Pharoah's court! Didn't it raise objections/questions?

B. Just as God had a place for Moses in His plans then, He wants our children for His plans for Malaysia today.

• God is waiting for us to let go of our children but we are not listening.


• When we truly let go and let God direct our children's lives, He will surprise us with what He can do with them.

C. Application- If God is going to do great things with our children, we need to understand 2 things:

• Set our children free for the Lord's use.


• Teach our children to follow the Lord, serve Him wholeheartedly and to make sacrifices, of necessary.

*grins* Actually the preacher gave out notes.. we had to fill in the blanks! :)

Yes, to sum it all up, parents were challenged to let go of their children & let God take control.

Haha, not let go as in let them be, but to trust that God has a plan and future for their child. After all, God has no grandchildren... haha, which means we are all children of God. ^^

As seen in the Moses' life. His mother willingly let go, and let God. And because of that, Moses' life was sparred and he grew up to be a great man of God which God used for His glory & purpose! Imagined if Moses' mother refuse to let go of him as a child.... what if she was too scared to act... too afraid to release her baby into God's hand... it would have cost her Moses' life!

*grins* sorree no pics!

I guess since most of us are still youths... haha, what we can get from this is that we should let go, and let God take control if OUR LIVES. :)
