Adrian Rogers: Six Principles to Fortify Your Faith (2390)

Sermon Overview
Scripture Passage: Hebrews 11:8-13

Hebrews 11:8 reminds us of the legacy of Abraham, who was called by God in his old age and became a champion of the faith: “By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out to the place which he would receive as an inheritance...”

Abraham's example gives us six principles to fortify our faith.

The Voice Principle: Abraham heard from the Lord.

The Lord appeared to Abraham through a supernatural experience. We have a greater advantage, having the written Word of God, the mind of Jesus Christ, and the guidance of the Holy Spirit.

The Venture Principle: we must obey what we know.

Abraham heard and obeyed. If we are having a faith problem, it could actually be rooted in an obedience problem.

Adrian Rogers says, "Our responsibility is not to totally understand, but to readily obey."

The Value Principle: We must establish priorities.

Abraham was a sojourner; he knew the land was not his home (See Hebrews 11:9-10.). If we live for this world, we will eventually conform to it and become an enemy of God. Instead, we must have the mind of Christ and prioritize knowing God’s will.

The Vision Principle: we must stay focused and remain disciplined.

We must keep our eyes set on things above, and not on things of this Earth. When we see the promises of God, which are otherwise unseen by those without faith, we have a responsibility to live by them.

The Vigilance Principle: our faith will be tested through heartache and tears.

We must remember that where God leads us, He will sustain us in it.

The Victory Principle: we get to enjoy the blessings.

Hebrews 11:12 says, “Therefore from one man, and him as good as dead, were born as many as the stars of the sky in multitude—innumerable as the sand which is by the seashore.”

Abraham and Sarah conceived a child in their old age, and from that child, Abraham’s descendants were innumerable as the sand. Their victory came by a fortified faith.

Apply it to your life
Do you want a faith like Abraham, whose faith left behind a legacy? Listen to the voice of God, obey what you know to be true; remain disciplined, even when tested, keeping your eyes on things above.
