Topic: KILL THAT WEAKNESS I

Memory Verse: Ephesians 4:27 – Neither give place to the devil.
Bible Reading: Hebrews 12:1-8

Message: When you want to fight a champion in a boxing match, the first thing you want to know is if he has been wounded before. If he has, you can hit him on that spot to get the upper hand in the match. When the devil wants to bring down a champion, he looks for the greatest weakness in the fellow and keeps aiming at it until the champion falls. This is why you must not allow any weakness in your life, because the devil will capitalize on it. You must destroy the weakness before it destroys you.

A hunter went hunting and killed a big leopard. He also saw a baby leopard and decided to take it back to the village because it looked harmless. The little leopard began to grow, playing with children in the village, and the hunter’s son was its best friend. Years later, the leopard had the hunter’s son riding on its back towards the village stream. The boy fell and bruised his leg on the ground. The leopard, wanting to help his friend, licked the blood on the boy’s leg. The taste of the blood drove the leopard to eat the boy up.

Beloved, if you don’t kill that little leopard in your life, it will kill you. That little contamination – that little anger or lust would later kill you, if you don’t kill it now.

Take us the foxes, the little foxes, that spoil the vines: for our vines have tender grapes. Song of Solomon 2:15

It doesn’t matter how many good virtues you have or how strong you are in the Spirit; if there is just one weakness, it can destroy you completely. A little contamination destroys purity. Hebrews 12:1 says that you should lay aside that sin which easily besets you so that you can run the Christian race successfully. This race is a marathon. In marathons, carrying the smallest weight can cause you to fail. Once the devil sees you carrying that weakness around, he knows he now has a joker card to use in bringing you down later. Don’t give him that joker card, kill the weakness immediately.

Hymn: Take My Life And Let It Be

Points: The smallest of weaknesses in your life can stop you from making heaven. Kill that weakness now.
Bible in one year: Acts 24, Acts 25, Acts 26

Title: Take My Life and Let It be.
Chorus: null.

  1. Take my life and let it be

Consecrated Lord to Thee
Take my moment and my days
Let them flow ceaseless praise.

  2. Take my hands and let them move

At the impulse of Thy love
Take my feet and let them be
Swift and beautiful for thee

  3. Take my voice and let me sing

Always only for my king;
Take my lips and let them be
Filled with messages from Thee.

  4. Take my sliver and my gold

Not a mite would I withhold
Take my intellect, and use
Every power as thou shalt choose.

  5. Take my will and make it Thine,

It shall no longer mine:
Take my heart, it is Thine own;
It shall be Thy royal throne,

  6. Take my love, my Lord, I pour 

At Thy feet its treasure store;
Take myself, and I will be
Ever, only, all for thee
