RESUMEN: In Luke 22:54 onwards, we see Peter's denial of Jesus during his time of suffering and crucifixion. This moment serves as a reminder of the divine drama in God's relationship with humanity. God has passions like us, and his heart aches for intimacy and communion with his creation. Through the centuries, God has been betrayed time and time again by his sons and daughters who do not love him as he wants to be loved. This is the number one pain in the heart of the Father. God lives eager to find men and women with a heart that truly honors him. We must give God the first fruits, the best, the choice, the preference, and the fierce passion, to show him the honor and respect he deserves.
The sermon discusses how humanity has a tendency to abandon God and not give Him the honor and respect He deserves. The suffering of Jesus on the cross included not only physical pain but also the pain of loneliness, abandonment, and betrayal. The sermon urges listeners to examine their lives and strive to love and honor God more, and to not be prideful and believe themselves better than others. The only way to have the strength to love Christ as He deserves is by seeking the power of the Holy Spirit and living a life of consecration, fasting, prayer, and reading the Word.
The sermon is about Peter's denial of Jesus and how he was forgiven and redeemed by Jesus. The speaker encourages the audience to always give priority to God, understand human tendencies, and seek God's anointing every day. The sermon ends with a prayer for forgiveness and a commitment to be radically committed to God. The sermon can be listened to or viewed through the links provided.

Let's go to the word of God, brothers, on this precious night. I want to invite you to go to the Gospel according to Saint Luke, chapter 22; and we're going to go to verses 54 onwards. On a night like this where we remember, this time of suffering. If at a time like this - we're not sure at what time specifically - but we know it was a Friday, the Lord was arrested and fully entered into his time of suffering and crucifixion and all these things. And that aspect called "The Passion of Jesus Christ" has a lot to teach us.
But in that dark time, in those dark hours that the Lord lived, one of the terrible things that happened was: Peter's denial. And we are going to see what we can extract, what teaching we can extract from this. It says that: "Taking - arresting - Jesus they took him and led him to the house of the High Priest and Peter followed him from afar and having lit a fire in the middle of the courtyard, they sat around it and Peter also sat among them. But a maidservant Seeing him sitting by the fire, he looked at him and said: 'This man was with him too'". That is to say, referring to Pedro, he accused him: "You know that this one is also with the one that they have arrested, he is part of his group." 'This man was also with Him', "but Peter denied it saying: 'Woman, I don't know him.' , about an hour later another still affirmed saying: 'Truly, this one was also with Him, because he is Galileo' and Peter said: 'Man, I don't know what you're saying' and immediately while he was still speaking, the rooster crowed.”
