🗡🛡 GOD'S WORD -‭‭ ‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭1 Peter‬ ‭1‬:‭15‬-‭17‬ ‭NLT

“But now you must be holy in everything you do, just as God who chose you is holy. For the Scriptures say, “You must be holy because I am holy.” And remember that the heavenly Father to whom you pray has no favorites. He will judge or reward you according to what you do. So you must live in reverent fear of him during your time here as “temporary residents.””

SUMMARY

This conversation focuses on the theme of holiness within the Christian faith, emphasizing its importance in personal development and spiritual growth. The speakers discuss the progression of holiness, the influence of thoughts on actions, and practical applications for maintaining holiness in daily life. They highlight the necessity of accountability and the impact of external influences on one's spiritual journey, ultimately encouraging a commitment to living a holy life in alignment with biblical principles.

⚔️ Are you a lover of God's truth? If so, it's time to get on and stay on His highway of holiness. This road is not congested, because most people are traveling on a different road hoping or believing that it will lead to life. But, according to God and Jesus Christ, it is a road to destruction. The road that leads to perdition, death, and hell is wide and anything is allowed on it. But, the road that leads to heaven, everlasting, and immortal life is a narrow road and only God's will is allowed on it. The worldly road is filled with sinful pleasures, but it is also filled with the high price tags of consequence and judgment. While the narrow road is filled with sacrifice and suffering, it is also filled with God's help, blessings, and rewards. So, we hope and pray that you would continually choose the truth - the road less traveled.

TAKEAWAYS

Holiness is essential for spiritual growth and connection with God.

The influence in our lives shapes our thoughts and actions.

Accountability is crucial in maintaining holiness.

Thoughts lead to words, and words lead to actions.

Holiness is not just about outward appearance but inner transformation.

We must actively choose to avoid influences that lead us away from holiness.

Living a holy life requires intentional effort and commitment.

The progression of holiness involves a continuous journey of self-examination.

We should seek to please God above all else in our actions and decisions.

Holiness is a reflection of our relationship with God and our commitment to His teachings.

To God even Jesus Christ be the glory forever, amen! 🙌

🗡🛡 GOD'S WORD -‭‭ ‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭Luke‬ ‭18‬:‭1‬ ‭NLT‬‬

“One day Jesus told his disciples a story to show that they should always pray and never give up.”

SUMMARY

This conversation focuses on the theme of prayer, exploring various biblical pictures that illustrate the significance and power of prayer in a believer's life. The speaker emphasizes the importance of viewing Jesus as a righteous judge, a deliverer, a friend, and a king, each providing a unique perspective on how prayer connects believers to God. The discussion also highlights the necessity of persistence in prayer and the assurance that God listens and responds to the cries of His people.

⚔️ Prayer is essential for spiritual growth and connection with God.

Blind Bartimaeus exemplifies faith and persistence in prayer.

God's timing in answering prayers is often different from our expectations.

Prayer should be a regular, scheduled part of our lives.

We should approach God with humility and faith, seeking mercy.

The prayers of the saints are precious to God.

Confidence in prayer comes from knowing who Jesus is.

🗡🛡 GOD'S WORD -‭‭ ‭‭‭‭‭‭1 Samuel‬ ‭15‬:‭22‬ ‭NLT

“But Samuel replied, “What is more pleasing to the Lord: your burnt offerings and sacrifices or your obedience to his voice? Listen! Obedience is better than sacrifice, and submission is better than offering the fat of rams.”

SUMMARY

This conversation delves into the themes of submission, authority, and obedience within the context of faith and community. The speakers emphasize the importance of submitting to God's word, the role of authority figures in our lives, and the process of spiritual growth through obedience. They discuss how submission is not just a duty but a pathway to blessings and a deeper relationship with God. The conversation encourages listeners to trust in God's plan and to engage with their community for support and guidance.

⚔️ God’s ideal for you and I is to have a perfect relationship with Him, and our obedience or submission to Him will help that endeavor.

Our humanity does not like the thought of obedience and submission to God or people, but it takes a level of trust in God and His perspective, to do it.

Obedience is pleasing to God, but it is a blessing for us.

Obedience and submission is a form of accountability and protection to God and from God.

God’s leaders don't do everything for us in our relationship with God, but they are there to help us to become more obedient and submitted to Him through Jesus Christ.

It takes time to become more obedient and submitted to God’s Word in every area of our lives.

Sometimes we do even realize that some things in our lives aren't submitted to God until He shows us.

Obedience to God extends beyond to God directly, but to God indirectly, by submitting to all people in all forms of authority, as long as they are not asking us to sin.

God also wants us to be submitted to elders and our peers.

Submission is our choice, and if we don't embrace it, we cannot expect to overcome all the challenges of life, and reach our full potential.

So, let's surrender ourselves to the LORD.

To God even Jesus Christ be the glory forever, amen! 🙌

🗡🛡 GOD'S WORD -‭‭ ‭‭‭‭James‬ ‭4‬:‭4‬ ‭NLT‬‬

“You adulterers! Don’t you realize that friendship with the world makes you an enemy of God? I say it again: If you want to be a friend of the world, you make yourself an enemy of God.”

⚔️ As human beings, we don't like being rejected or outcast, because our Heavenly Father made us social creatures, so we need to know where we fit and where we belong.

The problem is that our sinful nature is willing to do just about anything to fit in, be cool, or find a sense of belonging. And, the other problem is that we may be running in sinful circles.

Now we have Jesus Christ and His followers calling people out of the circles of the world to their circle of righteousness, by telling every soul of mankind that will listen, that the circle of the world is sinful and will be judged by God. And, saying that, to fit in and belong to God's circle, is to belong to something far better, greater, higher, or more rewarding than this world's circle.

So, let’s embrace the “Square Life.”

TAKEAWAYS

We are social creatures and need fellowship.

Belonging to the right circles is crucial for spiritual growth.

Embracing the square life means not fitting into worldly circles.

God calls us out of the world's circles into His kingdom.

Being lukewarm is not acceptable to God.

The Potter shapes us into vessels for His purpose.

We are valuable and precious in God's eyes.

The world is skilled at making bad things look appealing.

Our identity is found in Christ, not in worldly acceptance.

“Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: for where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.”

SUMMARY

This conversation focuses on the theme of contentment from a Christian perspective, emphasizing its importance in spiritual growth and personal development. The speaker discusses scriptural insights on contentment, the challenges faced in achieving it, and the role of godliness in maintaining a contented life. The discussion also highlights the significance of prioritizing God over material desires and the need for a supportive community in fostering spiritual growth.

⚔️ Treasure is what we desire in heart and are willing to sacrifice for.

Our heart is our inner person who will treasure or serve a master.

We may have some treasures in this life, but we should be content/delighted/satisfied/at peace with God being our ultimate treasure, passion, and focus.

We cannot ultimately serve God and something or someone else at the same time.

God is a treasure that can bless us, and so is Satan, but we have to choose which master we will serve.

God is a treasure that can take care of everything we need, even when we don't ask, we just have to seek and desire Him first and most of all.

Jesus Christ is an invaluable gift that God has given to us that we should treasure and be content with, because God gives us all things through Him.

So, let's be content with what a treasure God is in our lives; His Son Jesus Christ, His love, His salvation, His blessings, His righteousness, His correction, His promises, His will, His Word, His protection, His providence, His reward, and His Heaven.

TAKEAWAYS

Contentment is essential for handling life's challenges.

Contentment does not mean complacency; we should strive to grow.

The love of money can lead to spiritual pitfalls.

Understanding our needs versus wants is crucial for contentment.

Being fully persuaded in faith helps maintain contentment.

🗡🛡 GOD'S WORD -‭‭ ‭‭‭‭‭‭Lamentations‬ ‭3‬:‭22‬-‭23‬ ‭KJV‬‬

“It is of the LORD's mercies that we are not consumed, Because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: Great is thy faithfulness.”

SUMMARY

In this conversation, Brother Tony Garcia discusses the importance of community, integrity, and God's mercy in the lives of men striving to live a Christian life. He emphasizes that while struggles are inevitable, God's mercy is always available to lift us up and restore us. The discussion includes practical steps for spiritual growth, the significance of living with integrity, and the need for daily connection with God. The overarching theme is that despite the challenges faced, men can find strength and renewal through faith and community support.

⚔️ We can extend ourselves in service or grow weary in God's kingdom, but God is faithful to help us with mercy, strength, integrity, and renewal.

If we fail in the struggle, God's mercy gives us the opportunity to get up and try again.

Integrity is God's faithfulness, and it is doing right by God no matter how we feel or who sees us.

We must work out spiritually by our devotions to God, so that we can handle more of His kingdom struggles.

Jesus Christ represents All that we need from God.

We may lose some spiritual battles, but we can still win the war of eternal life, through Jesus Christ.

So, let’s keep going forward in the power of Jesus Christ, and forget about yesterday.

To God even Jesus Christ be the glory forever, amen! 🙌
