The passage in John 14:15-31 emphasizes that loving God and obedience are interconnected. Jesus says that if we love Him, we will obey His commandments.
Have you ever known you’re just supposed to do something and you just didn’t want to do it. Maybe it was someone like, when you’re younger your parents told you to do something and you thought, ‘you know, I just don’t wa you just called the person, ‘ok, I’m going to be late, sorry, I can’t do anything about it, I can’t make it’. You just decided you were going to blow it off.
In this sermon, the speaker continues on verse 9 of Romans 12, which emphasizes the attitudes that Christians should have towards one another. The first command is for love to be without pretensions, without any dark element of manipulation or self-interest.
We are going to continue on verse 9, that’s where we stopped last time if I’m not mistaken. Let’s pick up from there. We’ve been reading the first 8 verses of Romans, chapter 12, deriving our meditation from these verses. We will continue this today.
The sermon is focused on the importance of living a life of Godly values and character, rather than just displaying spiritual gifts or emotions. The speaker emphasizes the need for persistence, discipline, honesty, and excellence in our daily lives, which will ensure success and peace in the long run.
Romans 12 beginning with verse 1: " .... therefore I urge you brothers in view of God’s mercy to offer your bodies as living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God. with many members and these members do not all have the same function so in Christ we who are many form one body and each member belongs to all the others. We have different gifts according to the grace given to us.
The Christian life, particularly our sacred task of raising a family, hinges on a dynamic interplay: total reliance on God combined with our diligent responsibilities. Our foundational principle must be absolute dependency on God, trusting Him with our entire being and refraining from leaning solely on our own human intellect.
Cultivating Godly Families: Trusting the Lord in Every Act of Nurture Proverbs 3:5-6 • Ephesians 6:4
The governing principle of Ephesians 5:22 is to submit to one another out of reverence for Christ. The Apostle Paul provides three examples of how to apply this principle in different areas of life: the family, parents and children, and slaves and masters.
We’re nearing the end of our study of Ephesians and we are ending chapter 5 with a few verses on 5:22, Ephesians. Actually we should read verse 21 because even though there’s a division here, as we well know, the Bible w part of the previous portion, but it also belongs to the following portion. And it says in verse 21: “….
The happiest and most content people tend to be those who are best at loving others. However, this is not inherent in human nature and goes against our survival instinct.
God bless you all tonight. It turns out that I think, I believe that the word that the Lord has given us for tonight is precisely about, you know, is there a relationship between giving and between of the power of the Lo power of the Lord, access to his power, access to his joy and access to what we want of the Lord? And maybe we should start this evening with an observation.

The speaker reflects on the concept of love and how it has been a prominent theme in their life this year, particularly as they celebrate their 25th wedding anniversary and become grandparents for the first time. They emphasize the importance of knowing God as a loving Father and not basing one's understanding of Him on negative experiences or beliefs.
This year, more than ever God has led me to think and meditate upon the concept of love. You know, it’s possible that sometimes when you get to a certain age in your life you begin to evaluate your life and to think abou And it always leads us to think about how did I get to that point, and also to think about the future as well. And I have discovered that the greatest treasure that I have is the love of my heavenly Father.
