Legacy No Regrets

Daniel 12:3

1. Jesus teaches us how to leave a Godly legacy by going through the straight gate.
   1. What is the straight gate?
   2. What does it mean to build on rock or sand?
2. Today we are living in the legacy of others, while leaving our own legacy for those who will come after us.
   1. We are standing on the shoulders of those who have given and sacrificed much to pave the road we now walk on.
   2. Our Christian heritage came at a great price by great men and women who gave their lives for us.
3. There are two types of legacy that we can leave. The sinners – self-gratification and The Godly – self-sacrifice. (Matthew 7:1-27)
   1. Judge not. (Matthew 7:1-2)
   2. Get the board out of your own eye. (Matthew 7:3-5)
   3. Don’t hang out with dogs and pigs. (Matthew 7:6)
   4. Ask, Seek, Knock. (Matthew 7:7-11)
   5. Always live the golden rule. (Matthew 7:12)
   6. Which Way: Straight Gate – Broad Gate; Narrow way – Broadway; Life or Destruction. (Matthew 7:13-14)
   7. Know who the prophet is – discernment. (Matthew 7:15-16)
   8. Good tree – Corrupt tree; Good fruit – Evil fruit. (Matthew 7:17-20)
   9. Don’t be fooled by Christian lingo or Christian works. We all must know Jesus personally. (Matthew 7:21-23)
   10. The wise builds on rock – The foolish build on sand, (Matthew 7:24-27)
4. If we want to make the right mark, then we must set the right course NOW. (Deuteronomy 30:15, 1 Kings 18:21 amp.)
   1. Choose life and blessing. Don’t hesitate in your opinion for God.
   2. Life makes no sense without God, Solomon. (Ecclesiastes 2:1-11, 24-25)
5. To change your world:
   1. You don’t have to be famous or have a large following or be celebrated as some big shot.
   2. You need to simply do what God has planned and called you to do.
   3. Just be the best you: dad, mom, husband, wife, grandfather, grandmother, friend, serving God and open to hear and do Gods voice.
   4. I’m Praying for all of us to live a Godly Legacy.
