Winter Conference - Day 2

We had an unbelievable experience on day 2 of our Winter Conference.  We had 4 of our youth commit there lives to Christ today!!!  Praise God!!!

Here are some of my notes from day 2's message:

'HIDING FROM GOD" - by Matt Orth

Genesis 3:1-12; Psalm 139

You cannot hide from God... but when we do try to hide we become separated from Him and each other.


  • Ever played hide and seek with a child and they are terrible "hiders"?  Imagine playing hide and seek with God?

  • But that's what Adam and Eve did when they sinned, and its exactly what we try to do.  But "we are bare before His eyes".

  • Psalm 32:1-4

  • Remember cleaning your bedroom for your mom when you were a small child?  ... stuffing things under the bed or in the closet just to get it off the floor and hidden?

  • What are you coving up in your life?


You can't hide from God... and its a good thing.

  • Our sins are not hidden but neither are our struggles... God sees them all and its a good thing.

  • Hebrews 4:13-16


You can't hide from God... but you CAN HIDE IN HIM

  • Colossians 3:1-4

  • 2 Corinthians 5:15

  • When God looks at a Christian He only sees the righteousness of Christ... so stop hiding behind the fig leaf.


God is always going to call you away from sin and towards love.

  • "You are the light of the world.  A city on the hill cannot be hidden."  Matthew 15:4

  • Psalm 143:8-10

Wow this was really deep and so so true. I did this for very thing for 9 years of my life trying to hide from God and live my own life but only to learn that you can't hide from Him. I am so glad that He put His arms around me in 1999 and allowed me to come back to Him.
