Title: God’s Army
Text: Joel 2:1-11
Speaker: Rev. Aris Siew
Date: 20 June 2010

Why did God choose this army to come against his chosen people?  What kind of army did
God raised up?

1. GET UP
   V1 – The trumpet call.
   The Babylonians responded instead of the Israelites.  The call of the church is to evangelise.
   We do not hear the call because of past hurts and hearing a different rhythm – we are too immersed
   in the things of the world to hear God.
   
2. GOES UP
   The church needs to be biased towards action.  No hesitancy.  Going up with the finishing line in sight.
   Go up inspite of challenges.

3. GROW UP
   V8. “Do not jostle one another.”
   Are we supportive of one another? Are we united to get the job done, giving God the
   glory for all success?
