  1. NeverGive Up!

  2. Winston Churchill said “Never give in, never give in, never, never, never . . . in nothing great or small, large or pretty, never give in except to convictions of honor and good sense!”

  3. When your back is against a wall, never give up! • The opposite of perseverance is giving up. • Giving up doesn’t simply mean quitting. • Marriage • Job • Church • If you need a reason to give up. Then the Apostle Paul had plenty of reasons. (2 Corinthians 11:4-28)

  4. What to Do When Your’re Up Against a Wall - (2 Kings 4: 2-7) Elisha replied to her, “How can I help you? Tell me, what do you have in your house?” “Your servant has nothing there at all,” she said, “except a small jar of olive oil.” 3 Elisha said, “Go around and ask all your neighbors for empty jars. Don’t ask for just a few. 4 Then go inside and shut the door behind you and your sons. Pour oil into all the jars, and as each is filled, put it to one side.” (continued)

  5. What to Do When Your’re Up Against a Wall - (2 Kings 4: 2-7) 5 She left him and shut the door behind her and her sons. They brought the jars to her and she kept pouring. 6 When all the jars were full, she said to her son, “Bring me another one.” But he replied, “There is not a jar left.” Then the oil stopped flowing. 7 She went and told the man of God, and he said, “Go, sell the oil and pay your debts. You and your sons can live on what is left.”

  6. What to Do When Your’re Up Against a Wall • Go to the Right Source • Go to the Right Place • Practice Right Obedience • Listen to the Right People • Make Sure You Have Enough Jars

  7. What to Do When You’re Up Against a Wall But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us. 8 We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; 9 persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed. (2 Corinthians 4:7-9)

  8. Remember, You Can’t Do It Alone • Example: Special Forces (medicine, communications, weapons, and engineering) • Joshua and Caleb – Numbers 13 • The words of Caleb to Joshua – Joshua 14:8-11

  9. Never, Never, Never give up
