Bonjour,
Here’s yesterday’s sermon.
1. Thank God for our heavenly Father
“This, then, is how you should pray: ‘Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name.'" Matthew 6:9 (NIV)
In the Old Testament, God is called “Father” only seven times.
Then Jesus came along and said this is how people should pray: Modeling Relational Reverence Jesus calls Yahweh Elohim “Father.” Jesus uses the expression more than 150 times when he refers to God.
FORGOT TO SAY: Abba means “Father, I will obey you.” Abba is not merely about intimacy; it’s also about authority.
2. Thank God for our natural Dads
[Luk 17:11-19 NLT]
Jesus also notices our lack of gratitude.
Cured and Healed.
Your faith has made you well: There was an extra healing for this tenth leper. When Jesus said this, He likely meant God’s work within the man’s mind & heart. The other lepers had whole bodies, but still possibly had sick hearts, minds and ways.
3. Forgive your fathers & perhaps seek forgiveness
most of us would love to believe that our parents have tried their best, but due to our fallen sinful nature (Romans 3:23) even the godliest of parents can mess up from time to time.
4. Be the better Spiritual Sisters and Brothers
[Luk 15:24-32 NIV]
Get along with you siblings in order to bless your father’s heart.
I pray this short sermon blessed you.
Peace and Love,
Ed
If this was a blessing & want to buy me a coffee or book
