Presentation transcript:

Brothers and sisters, think of what you were when you were called. Not many of you were wise by human standards; not many were influential; not many were of noble birth. But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; SALT AND LIGHT 1 Corinthians 1:26-31

God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong. God chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things—and the things that are not—to nullify the things that are, SALT AND LIGHT

so that no one may boast before him. It is because of him that you are in Christ Jesus, who has become for us wisdom from God—that is, our righteousness, holiness and redemption. Therefore, as it is written: “Let the one who boasts boast in the Lord.” SALT AND LIGHT

A Little Thing SALT AND LIGHT

1. A LITTLE BREAD IS MUCH WHEN IN THE HANDS OF GOD SALT AND LIGHT

2. A LITTLE ARMY IS MUCH WHEN IN THE HANDS OF GOD SALT AND LIGHT

3. A LITTLE WEAPON IS MUCH WHEN IN THE HANDS OF GOD SALT AND LIGHT

4. A LITTLE YOU IS MUCH WHEN IN THE HANDS OF GOD SALT AND LIGHT

The first cause of discouragement is fatigue. SALT AND LIGHT
