The timing of our actions is an important factor that affects our successful, Christian development. If we wait too long to commit ourselves to do what is right in the eyes of God, we may miss out on opportunities to learn, grow in righteousness, and put our talents to practice. But on the other hand, if we lose our patience and take action too soon, we may not be demonstrating our faith in God, and place too much trust in our human judgment. Finding the right balance between hesitation and haste is important for us to practice so we can spiritually develop our character to its fullest potential.
Sermons
Ask
As Christians, we are taught to ASK. Asking God about things in our lives is paramount for how we live.
And what we ask for now will dramatically affect our future!
You’re Different
Do you accept everything that is happening? Or do you reject following society—especially when it comes to flagrant rebellion against God and His immutable laws? If you do, you’re different—and all the more so if you are a Christian!
A Growing Relationship With God
God expects us to grow and mature. We cannot stay a babe in our understanding and expect to accomplish those things designed for adults.
Testing Faith
How is our faith being tested? There are many examples of individuals in the Bible who have had their faith tested many times, but how did they respond? What about second chances? What does the Bible have to say about that?
A Successful Marriage
In what way is the physical marriage a copy or pattern of our spiritual marriage with Christ? What does this mean for our prophetic understanding? Can we say that our marriage covenant with Christ is successful if we are lacking in prophetic knowledge and engaging in unwarranted and unbiblical speculations? After all, the Holy Spirit of Christ is a Spirit of prophecy.
True Repentance
What is the difference between true repentance—godly sorrow in a godly manner—and the sorrow of the world? What are the seven aspects of true repentance, and what is its end result?
Count Your Blessings
Forgive and Forget
The ability to forgive and forget is a key principal that is laid out in the Bible. Christ taught a lot about how we should forgive others. There are three aspects I want to cover: God’s forgiveness, our forgiveness for others and the ability to forgive yourself and move forward.
Good Habits are Vital
A habit is “an acquired pattern of behaviour that often occurs automatically”. Bad habits will reap bad results. Good habits will reap good results – it really is as simple as that! We have to eliminate bad habits as they could prove to be a barrier to our eternal future!
