Sermon Outline

SERIES: Fruit of the Spirit

TITLE: GENTLENESS

TEXT: Galatians 5:22-23


The fruit of gentleness has to do with your manner and how you relate to people.


I will grow in gentleness as I allow the Spirit to soften my manner.”


GENTLENESS AND GOD

● God is gentle like a father with us. (Psalm 103:13-14)


● God is gentle like a shepherd with us. (Psalm 23:1-3; Psalm 40:11)


● Jesus displayed the fruit of gentleness in his life (Matthew 11:28-30)


GENTLENESS AND STRENGTH

● Gentleness is not the same as weakness. (Isaiah 40:10; Micah 5:4; Matt

21:12)


● Only the strong can be gentle (2 Timothy 1:17; Hebrews 4:15)


● Gentleness is strength under control (Proverbs 15:1; Proverbs 25:15; 1

Corinthians 4:20-21)


GROWING IN GENTLENESS

● You should be gentle in teaching (2 Timothy 2:24-25)


● You should be gentle in restoring (Romans 15:1; Galatians 6:1)


● You should be gentle in witnessing (1 Thessalonians 2:7; 1 Peter 3:15)


● Ask God to develop the fruit of gentleness in your life
