LEGACY
August 29, 2021

2 Timothy 1:5; Deuteronomy 6:5-9

We cannot change the past but we don’t have to repeat it.

2 Timothy 1:5 For I am mindful of the sincere faith within you, which first dwelt in your grandmother Lois and your mother Eunice, and I am sure that it is in you as well.

Based on God’s Word, what is the wise choice?

The

Question… What do I want to tell?

Your

is built in the dash

The most valuable legacy you can leave is the spiritual impact you make on your family.

We cannot use our past failures as an

to .

Deuteronomy 6:5 You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might. 6 These words, which I am commanding you today, shall be on your heart. 7 You shall teach them diligently to your sons and shall talk of them when you sit in your house and when you walk by the way and when you lie down and when you rise up. 8 You shall bind them as a sign on your hand and they shall be as frontals on your forehead. 9 You shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates.

Psalm 78:1 Listen, O my people, to my instruction;
Incline your ears to the words of my mouth.
2 I will open my mouth in a parable;
I will utter dark sayings of old,
3 Which we have heard and known,
And our fathers have told us.
4 We will not conceal them from their children,
But tell to the generation to come the praises of the Lord,
And His strength and His wondrous works that He has done.

Psalm 145:4 One generation shall praise Your works to another,
And shall declare Your mighty acts.


As long as you are still breathing you have the opportunity to develop a legacy that honors God and inspires the generations coming behind you.

4 IMPORTANT FACTORS FOR YOUR LEGACY DASH

Psalm 1 How blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked, Nor stand in the path of sinners, Nor sit in the seat of scoffers! 2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord, And in His law he meditates day and night. 3 He will be like a tree firmly planted by streams of water, Which yields its fruit in its season And its leaf does not wither; And in whatever he does, he prospers.
