I-incline my heart towards your word and not to get gains (Psalm 119:8). O-open my eyes that i may see wonderful things in your words (Psalm 119:18). U-unite my heart to fear your name (Psalm 86:11). S-satisfy me in the morning (Psalm 90:14)
Summary of Part 5-6. This is not meant to excuse any of us from watching the full sermon but to act as a reminder those who have watched, and a 'trailer' for those who are yet to watch the whole thing. 1. Meditate on the Word of God day and night. 2. In all your reading of the Bible, focus on the centrality of God and especially Christ. 3. In all your reading of the Bible, don't spare yourself the terrible glimpses of God's wrath. 4. Learn to preach to yourself. 5. Pray earnestly and continually for everything you need to be happy in God. 6. Resolve to fight every known sin in your life. 7. Commend Christ with your lips wherever you go. 8. Spend time with God-saturated people who will help you see God and fight the faith of faith. 9. Read biographies of great Christian saints (e.g. Hebrews 11). 10. Read great books about God. 11. Get the rest and exercise and proper diet that your body was designed by God to have. 12. Make proper use of natural revelation. 13. Do the hard and loving things for the sake of others. 14. Get a global vision for the cause of Christ and pour yourself out for the unreached. 15. Be patient on the night of God's seeming absence.
1st time i heard it preached this way. That the thrill, self scaring thing we do; is rooted fom our inner need of the fear of God. Wow. Thank you Lord. It makes me think.
so grateful for this message! it literally "unstuck" me from a dry & stale spiritual season. praise God for your ministry! Bought the book! Looking forward to diving into it and learning to apply it!
9:15 "You must get Faith again, and you get it from the bible. Faith comes from hearing and hearing by the word, so you go to your bible, every morning, to have your faith set aflame and ignited again" I know that's true because it's scripture but I really don't know what that means.
He explains fear, as more similar to awe, like standing on the edge of the Grand Canyon, or the fear you may have in hangliding or parachuting. Fear but thrilling.
We are ALL sinners that fall short of the glory of God. And we ALL are deserving of eternal punishment in hell because sin is so serious (sin is evil and it is the cause of all pain, death, and suffering). And that’s why Jesus suffered soooo much for us, and that’s why He died on the cross for ALL our sins (past, present, AND future sins) and rose from the dead 3 days later! Jesus did all this because He loves us sooooo much, you can’t even fully comprehend it! And you may have eternal life with Him if you repent (to change your mind about Jesus, to believe that Jesus Christ is the Lord our God) and have faith in Him, then you will be saved! (Let’s make it clear that being a good person WILL NOT get you into Heaven! You can only be saved by the grace God will show you, if you repent and have faith in Jesus and in what Jesus did for us on the cross and that He rose from the dead 3 days after He died for us! ONLY THEN, will you will be saved)! And do not wait because you do not know when you will die (sit and think deeply about that. You have NO CLUE when you will die! Today could be your last day, tonight could be your last night. You can die in your sleep or even in the next hour!) I want you to realize how urgent and important it is to have Jesus! But if you have Jesus, you will NEVER have to worry! You won’t have to worry about school, family problems, life, or EVEN DEATH because you will have the LORD your GOD, RIGHT BY YOUR SIDE, EVERY SINGLE DAY, EVERY SINGLE HOUR, EVER SINGLE MINUTE and EVERY SINGLE SECOND of your life! GOD can help you through ANY challenge, through ANY hardship, and through ANY depressing time in your life! GOD WILL NEVER leave you, GOD WILL NEVER forget about you, GOD WILL NEVER betray you, GOD WILL NEVER forsake you, and GOD WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU!!! And that is why GOD is calling you RIGHT NOW to be saved!
