Sin affects everything!
Dr. Chris Montgomery | Ezekiel 6:1-7:27 | Feb. 25, 2026
Seven ways sin affects our lives:
1. You lose your desire to worship God (Ezek. 6:1-7)
2. You lose your heart for God (Ezek. 6:8-10)
3. You lose the protective hand of God (Ezek. 6:11-14)
4. You lose your identity in God (Ezek. 7:1-4)
5. You lose your comfort in God (Ezek. 7:5-9)
6. You lose the provision of God (Ezek. 7:10-19)
7. You lose your humility before God (Ezek. 7:20-27)
“For pride is spiritual cancer: it eats up the very possibility of love, or contentment, or even common sense.”
“A proud man is always looking down on things and people; and, of course, as long as you are looking down, you cannot see something that is above you.”
C.S. Lewis
Raise A Hallelujah
Verse 1
I raise a hallelujah in the presence of my enemies, I raise a hallelujah louder than the unbelief I raise a hallelujah my weapon is a melody, I raise a hallelujah Heaven comes to fight for me
Chorus
I’m gonna sing in the middle of the storm, Louder and louder you’re gonna hear my praises roar
Up from the ashes hope will arise, Death is defeated the King is alive
Verse 2
I raise a hallelujah with everything inside of me, I raise a hallelujah I will watch the darkness flee I raise a hallelujah in the middle of the mystery, I raise a hallelujah fear you lost your hold on me
Bridge 1
Sing a little louder (Sing a little louder), Sing a little louder (Sing a little louder)
Sing a little louder (Sing a little louder), Sing a little louder (Sing a little louder)
Bridge 2
Sing a little louder in the presence of my enemies
Sing a little louder louder than the unbelief
Sing a little louder my weapon is a melody
Sing a little louder Heaven comes to fight for me
(REPEAT)
I raise a hallelujah

So we pour out our praise to You only

Our hearts will cry these bones will sing
Great are You Lord
