Life Lessons From The Book of Luke | Week 17 - Ps. Micah Pelkey

1 John 2:1 — “My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you may not sin. But if anyone does sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.”     Luke 22   31 “Simon, Simon, behold, Satan demanded to have you, that he might sift you like wheat,    32 but I have prayed for you that your faith may not fail. And when you have turned again, strengthen your brothers.”    33 Peter said to him, “Lord, I am ready to go with you both to prison and to death.”    34 Jesus said, “I tell you, Peter, the rooster will not crow this day, until you deny three times that you know me.”     54 Then they seized him and led him away, bringing him into the high priest's house, and Peter was following at a distance.    55 And when they had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard and sat down together, Peter sat down among them.    56 Then a servant girl, seeing him as he sat in the light and looking closely at him, said, “This man also was with him.”    57 But he denied it, saying, “Woman, I do not know him.”    58 And a little later someone else saw him and said, “You also are one of them.” But Peter said, “Man, I am not.”    59 And after an interval of about an hour still another insisted, saying, “Certainly this man also was with him, for he too is a Galilean.”    60 But Peter said, “Man, I do not know what you are talking about.” And immediately, while he was still speaking, the rooster crowed.    61 And the Lord turned and looked at Peter. And Peter remembered the saying of the Lord, how he had said to him, “Before the rooster crows today, you will deny me three times.”    62 And he went out and wept bitterly.         John 1:42 — Andrew brought Simon to Jesus. Jesus looked at Simon and said, "You are Simon, son of John. Your name will be changed to Cephas" (which means "Peter")       Who brought you to Jesus?         Who could you lead to Jesus?         Peer Pressure        You can love God and still get off track.        Have you ever hurt someone you loved?       Sifting shows us how fragile we can be.        Failing is not a disgrace unless you make it the last chapter of your book. — Jack Hyles        God sees you on the other side of your struggle.

 

    Luke 24   33 And they rose that same hour and returned to Jerusalem. And they found the eleven and those who were with them gathered together,    34 saying, “The Lord has risen indeed, and has appeared to Simon!”        God sees your whole story.
