Fundamentals - Seven People You Cannot Help - Part 5

YOU CAN’T HELP SOMEONE WHO HASN’T BEEN BROKEN, WRONGED, TASTED FAILURE OR BEEN WRONG!

· The prodigal son. Dad didn’t chase the prodigal kid or send care packages!
· A lot of parents are enablers. STOP IT!
· It allows them to change...LET IT GO!

Psalm 119:67 NLT
I used to wander off until you disciplined me;
but now I closely follow your word.

Psalm 34:18 NLT
The Lord is close to the brokenhearted;
He rescues those whose spirits are crushed.

●Often people want the reward without going through the pain or the process.
●Encourage people to push through the pain because there is purpose in the pain
and the process!
●Failure isn’t final! Failure is the seedbed of future greatness!

Questions To Ponder:
●Where have you provided ‘unsanctified mercy?’
●What do you need to look for in people to mentor or be mentored by in failure?
