======================================================================== RESOURCES THAT ENDURE by A.W. Tozer ======================================================================== Summary: The sermon emphasizes the importance of having everlasting resources in God, which remain constant despite the uncertainty and transitoriness of worldly resources. Topics: "Trust in God", "Eternal Resources" Scripture References: Matthew 6:19, 2 Corinthians 4:18 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ DESCRIPTION ------------------------------------------------------------------------ A.W. Tozer emphasizes that while earthly resources such as health, wealth, and peace are valuable, they are ultimately uncertain and fleeting due to the fallen nature of the world. He encourages believers to focus on everlasting resources found in God, which remain steadfast regardless of life's circumstances. Tozer reassures that even in the face of adversity, Christians possess the essential gifts of Christ's sacrifice, the unchanging Scriptures, and the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Ultimately, believers can find hope and security in the promise of their eternal home with the Father. The sermon calls for a shift in focus from temporary worldly concerns to the enduring spiritual resources provided by God. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ CONTENT ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The people of this world have always fussed and argued over this world's resource-hope for life, health, financial prosperity, international peace and a set of favorable circumstances. These resources are good in their own way, but they have a fatal defect-they are uncertain and transitory! Today we have them; tomorrow they are gone. It is this way with all earthly things since sin came to upset the beautiful order of nature and made the human race victims of chance and change. We desire for all of God's children a full measure of every safe and pure blessing that the earth and sky might unite to bring them. But if in the sovereign will of God things go against us, what do we have left? If life and health are placed in jeopardy, what about our everlasting resources? If the world's foundations crumble, we still have God and in Him we have everything essential to our ransomed beings forever! We have Christ, who died for us; we have the Scriptures, which can never fail; we have the faithful Holy Spirit. If worst comes to worst here below, we have our Father's house and our Father's welcome! ======================================================================== Source: https://sermonindex.net/speakers/aw-tozer/resources-that-endure/ ========================================================================
