Title: All in for Jesus (2 of 8)
Series: Living Above
Author: Brad Whitt
Text: 1 Chronicles 12
INTRODUCTION:
Take your Bibles this morning and turn to 1 Chronicles chapter 12. Last Sunday morning, we began a new series of studies titled "Living Above: Lessons for Living in Victory." We are looking at what it means and how you can live above what you undergo.
QUOTE: In the first chapter of Mark Batterson's book, "All In," Batterson challenges us with a thought-provoking statement. Listen to it: "Jesus didn't die to keep us safe. He died to make us dangerous. Faithfulness is not holding the fort. It's storming the gates of hell. The will of God is not an insurance plan. It's a daring plan. The complete surrender of your life to the cause of Christ isn't radical. It's normal. It's time to quit living as if the purpose of life is to arrive safely at death. It's time to go all in and all out for the All in All."
This morning, I want us to see what it means to be "All in for Jesus."

1 Chronicles 12:1-3, 8, 14-18, 23-26, 38, "Now these were the men who came to David at Ziklag while he was still a fugitive from Saul the son of Kish; and they were among the mighty men, helpers in the war, 2 armed with bows, using both the right hand and the left in hurling stones and shooting arrows with the bow. They were of Benjamin, Saul's brethren. 3 The chief was Ahiezer, then Joash, the sons of Shemaah the Gibeathite; Jeziel and Pelet the sons of Azmaveth; Berachah, and Jehu the Anathothite...8 Some Gadites joined David at the stronghold in the wilderness, mighty men of valor, men trained for battle, who could handle shield and spear, whose faces were like the faces of lions, and were as swift as gazelles on the mountains...14 These were from the sons of Gad, captains of the army; th ...
