Do You Want to Receive a Glorious Crown?
1 Peter 5:1-11
Sunday, February 25, 2024
Dr. Kelly B. Burton
Sermon in a Sentence: Do you want to receive a glorious crown? Throw all your worries on God and resist the stalking devil.
Peter explains how we can all receive a glorious crown:
1. 1:1-4 Pastor, Tend the Flock in Your Charge
Not because you have to, but because you want to.
Not out of greed, but eagerly.
Not like a tyrant, but as an example.
2. 5-11 Church, Pulverize Your Pride and Get Up Under the Mighty Hand of God
V7 C______________ ALL your anxieties.
V8 W______________ like sheep who know he is lurking around.
V9 R______________ the devil. You are never told to take him on by yourself.
(Notice the contrast between God who cares for you and the devil who wants to devour you).
