What To Do When You're Reached Your Breaking Point sermon podcast



http://bridgepointchurch.podomatic.com/

Change happens through relationships with God & with other people so it’s with this thought in mind we can manage our stress in a healthy way that glorifies God especially when we’ve reached our breaking point.

"Knowing What to Do When You’ve Reached Your Breaking Point" shows we’re surrendered to God’s ultimate plan & purpose for our lives and also shows we can be an example to others; especially those who are the closest to us. Here's the deal; the goal is to become like Jesus and many times God will use those who are closest to us to accomplish that! (Think about that one for a minute!)

This is what God may have had in mind for David in his realtionship with Saul. While running from Saul twice David could've "pinned him to the ground" killing him but he didn't cuz he wanted to please and honor God. David would rather live in a cave pleasing God than sit on a throne before his time displeasing God.

In this talk you'll discover 3 things that David did to manage his stress in a healthy way before he reached his breaking point.

Feeling stressed is normal; sometimes stress motivates you to focus on your work and at other times you can feel incredibly overwhelmed unable to concentrate on anything. While stress affects everyone differently there are two major types of stress: stress that’s beneficial & motivating…Good Stress & stress that causes anxiety & even health problems…Bad Stress.


So what if your stress is stressing you out? What do you do if you’ve “Lose It?” While no one is perfect that doesn’t mean you can “go off” whenever you feel like it! God has given us a spirit of self-discipline & we can manage our stress in a healthy way that honors God & shows others that they can feel safe around us. Facing Failure while stressed out requires us being honest with God & ourselves if we’re ever gonna grow in our relationship with Christ.

The Holy Spirit gives us the strength to recover from being stressed out & in this message I’ll give you 3 rules to follow that will help you when you’ve “Lost It.”
