THE AMBUSHES

Who said anything about ambushes?
The bottom line in determining
How a man will finish centers
Around getting through the ambushes
The ambushes

To finish strong means that you
Survived the ambushes
Getting through the ambushes
Is what separate men from the boys
The ambushes

And the guys who get through
The ambushes are generally the guys
Who anticipate the ambushes
We can expect to encounter at least
Three major ambushes as we attempt to finish strong

They are
The ambush of another woman
The ambush of money
The ambush of neglected family
Think through some men in the Scripture
Who should have finished strong but couldn’t

The enemy has been using these three ambushes
To keep God’s men from finishing strong
For thousands of years let’s take a little closer to each one
The ambush of another woman risk is also the critical issue
In determining whether or not you will survive the ambush of another woman

The ambush of money
For the love of money is the root of all evil
Remember Ananias and Sapphire had such love for money
They both had what could be called a premature finish

The ambush of neglected family
A minister once asked a question
Whats your greatest fear about going into ministry
The said minister did not hesitate to answer and here his is reply
Being successful in ministry and losing my family
