Seeking Jesus?

The wise men knew it was Him by a sign – Matthew 2:9 Peter and Andrew knew it How COVID has affected us
A Rejected King
Sermon Scripture: 1 Samuel 16 Sermon Big Idea: Rejection is a heart condition. Will we believe in our hearts how Jesus came into the world and what He came to do? Israel rejected God as King because they didn’t like what they could see. (1 Samuel 8:1-7) God rejected Saul as King because of what Saul wouldn’t see. (1 Samuel 13:13-14; 15:11,22,27-29) God rejected David’s brothers as King so that Israel may see. (1 Samuel 16:6-7) The world rejected Jesus How COVID has affected us
Don’t forget the bread
God uses an unlikely love story at the “house of bread” to fulfill his promise. Intro: You can’t deny love as the overwhelming thread that holds together God and his people. Elimelech’s love was providing for his family. (Ruth 1:1-2) Naomi’s love was a willingness to release her family. (Ruth 1:8) Ruth’s love was the sacrifice of self. (Ruth 1:16-17) Boaz’s love was for God and His people. (Ruth 2:11; 4:9-10) God’s love is a promise kept. (Genesis 3:15; Isaiah How COVID has affected us
It’s all about the outfit
Adam and Eve recognized their nakedness. (Genesis 3:7) Surrendering to Jesus is being recognized as a disciple of Jesus. (Matthew 22:1-14) As we follow Jesus we can recognize the wrinkles falling from our life. (Ephesians 5:25-27) Our good works will make us recognizable as the bride. (Revelation 19:1-9) May our clothing reflect not our past, but our wrinkle-free future of righteous deeds.
A Gift From the Host
Luke 19:1-10 Sermon Big Idea: Truly inviting Jesus to our feast is to let him be the host. Short in stature, short in morals, but a tall stack of money had he. Zacchaeus couldn’t resist the desire to see Jesus. What identified Zacchaeus was replaced with Jesus. Jesus healed another blind man. Jesus became the host of Zacchaeus’ house by way of salvation.
The Guest List
Sermon Scripture: John 2:1-12 Sermon Big Idea: When Jesus is invited, watch for the miracles. In Jesus’ first miracle we find much symbolism. In Jesus’ first miracle we find great satisfaction. In Jesus’ first miracle we find his first glorious sign. In Jesus’ first miracle we find a satisfying symbol of his glory that turns bad situations into great celebrations.
