“The Characteristics of a Strong Life“ Matthew 7:24-29
No one can accurately determine if someone is strong by simply observing external appearances.
The true test of strength occurs when storms come into our lives.
A person with a strong life:
1. Has trusted in Jesus Christ as one’s personal Savior.
2. Is guided by the Holy Spirit (Romans 9:1).
3. Makes prayer a priority, (1 Thess. 5:17)
4. Has built his life upon the teachings and application of God’s Word, (James 1:22).
5. Can withstand the storms and learn from them, (Psalm 34:17)
6. Has strong faith (James 1:3).
7. Is optimistic, (Jeremiah 29:11).
8. Develops friendships with people who enrich your life, (Proverbs 13:20)
