Talking To Jesus - Part 2
In the second sermon of the "Talking To Jesus" series, we explore the foundational priorities for believers in Jesus. Centered on John 5:30, we understand that aligning with God’s will is paramount. Jesus exemplifies this by seeking not His own will, but the will of the Father who sent Him. We then delve into Jesus’ teachings on prayer, as seen in Luke 11:1-2, where He provides a model prayer that emphasizes reverence for God and the coming of His kingdom.
The sermon further reveals the nature of the Father, drawing from Psalm 55:22, Hebrews 1:3, and 1 Peter 4:19, illustrating God as a sustainer, the exact representation of His nature, and a faithful Creator. We learn that God is a treasure, filled with righteousness and steadfast love (Psalm 33:5, Psalm 45:6, Ecclesiastes 2:26). Finally, we recognize God's omnipotence and omnipresence, reflected in Psalm 139:7-12, Isaiah 46:10, and Romans 1:20, affirming that His power and divine nature are evident throughout creation. This sermon guides us in understanding and communicating with our powerful, loving, and just God.
