Greetings to you all in the name of Jesus Christ
Sunday is the day where we spend more time with the Lord than other days in a week. I am taking this privilege as assigned to me by the Church Secretary to write brief sermon for the glory of God.
The God we believe and worship is so loving; He loves His creations, but above all, God loves His people. In the history written in the Bible, the Israelites were the people of God, who were called by His name. But in the New Testament the people of God are those who were baptized in His name - Jesus Christ. As we know from the Bible, God care His people more than anything. God stood and never failed His people, when His people cried to Him for any help.
In my sermon I want to focus on God and His people
God towards His People’s:
1. God always love and never forget His people, as He promised not to leave His people as an orphan.
2. God always listen to the cry of His faithful people in any circumstances from the ends of the earth.
3. God always helped His people in times of their problems, difficulties, and sorrows etc.
4. God protects His people and their land from the natural calamities, epidemic as long as they are faithful and obedience to His laws.
5. God always expect His children not to be sorrowful but rejoice in any circumstances with supplications to Him, which is the will of God.
How God People's should be:
1. God’s people should never degrade and neglect the mightiness of God in any circumstances on this earth; rather everyone should be submissive to His authority and might.
2. God’s people should always maintain holiness, never forget to worship, and pray to Him like Daniel and his three friends in foreign land where they could not worshipped God together. As they remained faithful in their faith towards the living God Jehovah in any circumstances without compromised. In returned God protected and uplifted them from various problems and difficulties that came on their ways.
3. God’s people should stand still faithfully, and see the salvation of the Lord as Israelites stand still and waits for God salvation in their helpless situations before they cross the red sea.
4. God’s people should control their thoughts when they are alone so that devils will not have workshop in their live. Because wrong thoughts can lead a person to depression and distress, as to avoid that one should meditate upon the living Words of God where the fountain of hope for men/women comes from.
5. God’s people should never forget be the salt and light of this world. The worldliness should not carry or take away the people of God from their covenant with the living Lord Jesus Christ.
Our living God expects His people to draw near to him no matter what circumstance come what may. God wants His people to be faithful in times of thick and thin in their live. It is the responsibility for the people of God to live according to the likeness of God till the end of one’s life on this earth.
As the Heaven is prepared place for the prepared people so let us prepare in any circumstances to meet our only Lord and saviour Jesus Christ, though various unavoidable situation comes on the way to be away from God. Let this be in one’s mind, _“nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” (Romans 8:39)_
“I will not leave you an orphans; I will come to you.” (John 14:18)
God bless and be with you allšš
