The Heart 2

Speaker: Pastor Frank Osayi

Bible Scripture:

2nd Corinthians 4:6 - For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,”[a] made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of God’s glory displayed in the face of Christ.

 Matthew 5:13 - 15 - You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot. You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house.

Philippians 2:5 - 6 - In Bethlehem in Judea,” they replied, “for this is what the prophet has written:

But you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, are by no means least among the rulers of Judah; for out of you will come a ruler who will shepherd my people Israel.

 Ephesians 2:8 - 9 - For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God not by works, so that no one can boast.

 Notes: we are the light of the world. At night, what do you see: Darkness, and in the morning what do you see: Light. A Heart is like a bucket, or a container, that you put things inside. We are here in the physical world, but we cannot see the spiritual world. When someone is playing music and they just left it enters your mind, that if it’s a bad music then it’s the devil trying to enter your mind, when you’re a Christian you rebuke the music out of your mind, pray, and ask God for forgiveness.

When you are born again God enters/come to your life then every darkness will disappear. Good works is a product of salvation. Chris did not come just to take you to Heaven, be sweet and kind to people in your home, at work, at school, at your apartment complex, everywhere you need to be kind and generous. Our desire to please God increase. We must think and act like Christ. God want us to use the gift that he gave unto us good and use it for his glory. We were created not for evil work but for good works. When you switch on a light and there is still darkness then there’s something wrong, but if you switch on the light and it is on, then there is nothing wrong with you.
