Firm Foundation with Bryan Hudson
Religion & Spirituality:Christianity
Isaiah 40:31 But those who hope in the Lord will renew [exchange] their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.
Exchange is a part of life. We all need renewal and refreshing on a regular basis. One of the best examples of that principle is sleep. Isn’t it interesting that we have to sleep 5-8 hours out of every 24 hours. (Watch Video, "What Happens When You Sleep: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eTgNgGO_bLs)
Sleep is involuntary, but there are exchanges that we should make voluntary.
The normal activities and challenges of life take a toll. There are also circumstances that require exchange for us to cope and make progress in life. Situations like the passing of loved ones or unexpected setbacks on life are among the biggest examples.
Whatever the situation, God has made a provision through His grace. The grace of God is everything He has that He makes available to us. And of His fullness we have all received, and grace for grace. (John 1:16)
An Exchange was the basis of our Salvation
1 John 2:2 And He Himself is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the whole world.
MASTER KEY: “The Great Exchange” is God’s method for our renewal of strength.
This is nothing new. It is a very old and biblical understanding of our God works in our lives. We cannot change ourselves using our own strength. We can make superficial adjustments, but deep and lasting change much come from our Creator.
Sometimes an exchange is necessary to undo a bad exchange.
Matthew 16:25 For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it. 26 For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul?
MASTER KEY: PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR EXCHANGES
We are always giving up one thing for another. That’s a part of life, but be mindful of what you are exchanging.
Romans 1:24, Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves, 25 who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever.
