God Allows U-Turns II Chronicles 7:14 INTRODUCTION Have you ever seen those signs that read “No U-turns”. I usually only see them when I want to make a U-turn! Today, on Father’s Day, I have good news, God allows us to make a U-turn anywhere and at any time. I. Connect with the need to turn our lives. a. After we realize we belong to God (called by his name) we are humbled. b. Once we are humbled we can begin to pray and seek God’s face. c. When we seek God, we are aware of our condition. (Isaiah 6) II. Confessing to God is the turning point in one’s life. a. When a humbled and seeking heart sees God, we confess. b. This is where the power of God’s atonement meets us and changes us forever. c. Confession is required for both salvation and discipleship. III. Continuing in the right direction is our goal in life. a. It makes no sense to do a U-Turn and not travel in the new direction. b. It makes no sense to confess our sin and continue in the sin. c. God’s faithfulness to forgive is contingent on us traveling in the right direction. CONCLUSION Today, the question is not whether we need to make a U-turn, but where do we need to make a U-turn! I am thankful God not only allows U-turns, God helps us make them!
