How Can you do good to the household of faith unless you are part of a household of faith???
Especially- mostly, above used to emphasize that something is more important
Galatians 6:7–10 (NKJV) 7 Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. 8 For he who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap everlasting life. 9 And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart. 10 Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all, especially to those who are of the household of faith.
Decieved- Led astray, led away from truth, be deluded
We have the potential to fall in to the trap of deception - Flesh / Carnal Man
Deceived people dont realise the consequence of their actions
What You Sow You Grow
Growing Weary-
Weary- Discouraged, Lose Heart, To Give Up
Doing Good- Virtuos & moral actions- Good Works- Service to God
Signs of Growing Weary
What Comes Out Your Mouth- Luke 6:45 (NKJV) 45 A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings forth evil. For out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.
“I feel Weary” “I feel discouraged” “Ive lost heart in ....” “I feel like giving up”
Emotions- are the reactions we feel inside to what occurs outside- they are part of our design-

Flesh- Human Nature, Carnal nature
Corruption- destruction, decay, moral coruption
Working From The Flesh or The Spirit

Matthew 11:28–30 (NKJV 28 Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29 Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”
All Who Labour- work, give effort, toil and are weary

- Waiting On God...
Isaiah 40:29–31 (NKJV) 29 He gives power to the weak, And to those who have no might He increases strength. 30 Even the youths shall faint and be weary, And the young men shall utterly fall, 31 But those who wait on the Lord Shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles, They shall run and not be weary, They shall walk and not faint.
Wait- Hope, Wait for, Look for,
Renew- Be New, Change what your wearing,
To Busy To Wait On God
----Feed / Listen to God- Feeding on the Word ---
Matthew 4:4 (NKJV) 4 But He answered and said, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.’ ”
---Love God----
Matthew 9:36–38 (NKJV) 36 But when He saw the multitudes, He was moved with compassion for them, because they were weary and scattered, like sheep having no shepherd. 37 Then He said to His disciples, “The harvest truly is plentiful, but the laborers are few. 38 Therefore pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest.”
John 21:15–19 (NKJV) 15 So when they had eaten breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, “Simon, son of Jonah, do you love Me more than these?”
He said to Him, “Yes, Lord; You know that I love You.”
He said to him, “Feed My lambs.”
16 He said to him again a second time, “Simon, son of Jonah, do you love Me?”
He said to Him, “Yes, Lord; You know that I love You.”
He said to him, “Tend My sheep.”
17 He said to him the third time, “Simon, son of Jonah, do you love Me?” Peter was grieved because He said to him the third time, “Do you love Me?”
And he said to Him, “Lord, You know all things; You know that I love You.”
Jesus said to him, “Feed My sheep. 18 Most assuredly, I say to you, when you were younger, you girded yourself and walked where you wished; but when you are old, you will stretch out your hands, and another will gird you and carry you where you do not wish.” 19 This He spoke, signifying by what death he would glorify God. And when He had spoken this, He said to him, “Follow Me.”
