πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘ Great take away message thought i almost slept as the Pastor earlier said hahhah.

-Firstly thanks for the clarification about been slaves to God and sins. That those who are lead by the Spirits are not slaves to God but HIS childrenπŸ‘Œ

-Also the way we see God shapes the manner in which we think of HIM. As a boss or bankπŸ€—,otherwise we will think that our works deserves a rewardπŸ‘πŸ‘ .. But there's a say that anything we do,we do to ourselves right?if we do good,we will receive good things likewise bad,does it apply there?

-Again we should give thanks to God in everything, nothing is little,cus we often feel that we can do basic things by our own power but God is involved in all, even blinking our eyes,sitting,walking etc

-This got me,Pray all the time not necessarily when need arises,i personally pray harder when things are bad,i feel like God must answer me right now hahahh...

-Almost last take away🀩, always go to God no matter what and not run away from him,At times when i mess up,i feel reluctant prayingπŸ˜₯.

The list continu etc ...All the examples you coated were super and related to life which were much more understandable πŸ‘Œ

-Have a doubt though.... You said something like, if i heard well,if things are not going well ,it doesn't mean there is a problem? I mean how? ofcus something is wrong somewhere right?

-Lastly but not the least,which NIV version or type are you using let me purchase mine,i might have sense like you haha..

You mentioned doing good so good may come about. Gods law leads to flourishing, so doing good leads to good, whether we know God or not. Our motivation to do good though should be to honor God rather than the rewards that come. Does that make sense?

This morning was reading Deut 13:1-3 and it drew my attention to your message again,it talks about how The Lord uses Prophets who may promise miracles and wanders that may come true to TEST Us,to see if we love the LORD with all our hearts but in James as you quoted says God does not tempt no one 😩..

I would say that because God allows something doesn’t mean that God is doing that thing. This means that as false prophets come to deceive, it is not God doing the deceiving

I watched your sermon! I love seeing people in our generation rise up to bear witness to God with grace and truth. God is speaking powerfully through you. Keep going Aodhan!
