Fulfill Commitment

Sermon Series:

Take Courage

2 Chronicles 15:16-19

Even Maacah, his mother, King Asa removed from being queen mother because she had made a detestable image for Asherah. Asa cut down her image, crushed it, and burned it at the brook Kidron. But the high places were not taken out of Israel. Nevertheless, the heart of Asa was wholly true all his days. And he brought into the house of God the sacred gifts of his father and his own sacred gifts, silver, and gold, and vessels. And there was no more war until the thirty-fifth year of the reign of Asa.

Main Idea

In a world turning from Him, God calls us to fulfill our commitments to Him!

Outline

1. We go all the way (vv16-17)
2. We give all to God (vv18-19)

Pre-Questions

Reflect on areas where you might need to renew a commitment, whether in your personal life, work, or faith. What steps can you take to align this commitment with God’s purpose for you?
How does prayer and time in the Word help you stay grounded and dedicated to your commitments?

Discussion Questions

Reflect on Colossians 3:23, which encourages us to work heartily as if for the Lord. How does this verse shape your understanding of fulfilling commitments in everyday life?
Share an example of a commitment in your life that you see as part of your faith journey. How does God strengthen you to keep this commitment?

Thomas Watson, a well-known Puritan preacher and writer from the 17th century, said, “We have sinned with our fathers; let us not be like them, but let us repent of our repentance. Hypocrites repent that they may sin no more, and that they may sin more. True repentance begins in the love of God, and ends in the hatred of sin.” What lesson can we learn from King Asa, not removing all the high places (or places of pagan worship)?

Luke 16:10 reminds us, “Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much.” How do you see this principle applying to both small and large commitments in your life?
How does fulfilling small, everyday commitments build your character and prepare you for greater responsibilities?

How is God calling you to engage further with what God has called us to as a church?
