Preparatins: Remaining Faithful

In this sermon, Jesus teaches the importance of consistent, tenacious prayer, using the parable of the widow and unjust judge to show how persistence n prayer prevents us from losing hope. He emphasizes that abiding in God and aligning our desires with His leads us to produce spiritual fruit that blesses others, reflecting God's goodness and love. Finally, Jesus reassures us that God's timing is perfect, as He delays His return to allow more people to know Him, urging us to faithfully pray, share the gospel, and await the fullness of  God's justice.

Preparations: Faithfulness and Gratitude

Luke: The Person and Mission of Jesus / Faith; Thanksgiving, Healing / Luke 17:11-19; Leviticus 13:45-46; Leviticus 13:1-8; Luke 8:24; Luke 9:49; Philippians 3:7-10

True faith is demonstrated through obedience to God’s Word, as seen in the story of the ten lepers who were healed when they followed Jesus' command. It reminds us that Jesus’ instructions always align with God’s law, and faith is revealed in action, not just belief. The message also highlights the importance of gratitude, urging believers to respond to God’s work in their lives with thankfulness, like the one leper who returned to thank Jesus. Through our faith, obedience, and gratitude, others can witness and experience God's presence.

Living Shrewdly For The Kingdom

Luke: The Person and Mission of Jesus / Luke 16:1-13; Exodus 22:25; Leviticus 25:36-37; Deuteronomy 15:7-8; Deuteronomy 23:19-20; Genesis 2:15; Proverbs 2:1-6; 

Luke 16 invites us to see our finances and resources through the lens of God's Kingdom, using Jesus' parable of the shrewd manager to challenge how we live. It's not about dishonestly but about making wise, intentional decisions that reflect long-term priorities, just as the manager did when he adjusted his life to secure his future. Jesus calls us to shift our focus from temporary comforts to being faithful stewards of what God has entrusted us with-our money, time, and gifts. It's a call to use our blessings to care for others and live with a deep awareness that everything we have is part of God's plan. Ultimately, this message encourages us to seek God's wisdom in how we live, making decisions that align with His purposes and glorify Him in every part of our lives.
