This is my take aways from This Weeks Message. Like when I read the Bible and a year later read the same passage and get something new. You may have had something that stands out that I did not take away. What speaks to me may be different than what this message says to you. We are blessed to have a Senior Pastor that preaches God’s word. The Bible is the living word of God. How wonderful it is to have God speak to us personally, in each and every day and each phase of life we are living.
What tree are you swinging in? The tree of Life or the tree that leads to a yoke of bondage, the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. The tree of life, God’s perspective a Biblical view of the world or a worldly view of life. The forbidden tree’s roots come from the attitude of the fall. Isaiah 14:14 I will be like the most high God, I will raise my throne above God’s stars…” Lucifers folly. Focusing on self.
But, the fruit of the tree of life, the fruit of the Spirit. In our DANIEL class, the speaker reminds us the fruit your bear is the tree you are. You may say you are an apple tree but if you produce bananas, no matter what you say, you are a banana tree. Your fruit, your actions show everyone what kind of tree you are.
Let’s focus on transforming our minds, transforming our lives and bearing Godly fruit. Romans 12:1-3 Present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy [separated for God’s work] and acceptable to God which is your reasonable [doable, not impossible] service. And do not be conformed to this world, [don’t swing from the wrong tree] but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. [studying God’s word]
The tree of life results in fellowship with God. Entering into His presence, having a relationship with the LORD of heaven and earth. Fellowship with God results in innocents.
You don’t know my life, the things I have done the things, I have said. Christ died for us where we were, where we are, sinners. For all have sinned, but Jesus died for us anyway. What a friend we have in Jesus, all my sins and griefs to bear. When we ask for forgiveness, our sins are forgiven, forgotten as far as the east is from the west. We are innocent, God sees us through, Jesus glasses. The Message version puts it like this. Because of the sacrifice of the Messiah, his blood poured out on the altar of the cross, we are free p eople – free from the penalties and punishments chalked up by all our misdeeds. And not just barely free, either, abundantly free. Eph. 1:7-10
Our transformed life, the process of becoming a new creation, brings new actions anointed by God, empowered by God. Whatever your calling, the Holy Spirit will empower you, beyond your natural ability. Present your bodies a living sacrifice to work in the kid’s church, nursery, being in the productions; not an actor, not singer, then be in the crowd scenes. Maybe you are called to teach, I was, and I questioned God, ME? So far so good. We are on our third book, Daniel. 4.C. on the outline We should look for ways to serve others. Others like what we used to be, e.g. an alcoholic, drug addict, abused or an abuser, addicted to pornography? Help others to overcome this fallen world, full of fallen people. But now we are free, abundantly free. Help others free become free through the power of the blood Jesus shed for us. (4.D). Grace was God’s idea! Unmerited favor. We did not deserve it, we could not earn it! (E.) We must choose, yes make up your mind, like Daniel in Chapter 1:8, he resolved not to defile himself.
I heard recently that this is 2025, you no longer have to choose; you can do whatever is right in your own eyes. This is a lie from the pit of hell. It never works out good.
I have decided to follow Jesus. You have to choose to accept the saving grace God gives us, or live and die in your sins.
Galatians 4:6-8a. “Because you are his sons, God sent his Son into our hearts, the Spirit that calls out ABBA FATHER. 7. So, you are no longer a slave to sin, but God’s child and since you are God’s child. God also made you’re an heir.8. Formerly, when you did not know God, you were slaves, to those who by nature are not gods. But now you know God – or rather known by God.”! Choose to receive adoption as sons and daughters of God.
