Jan 4, 2022 · First, God wants us to trust in His Son as Savior and Lord (Philippians 2:9–11). Second Peter 3:9 says, “The Lord . . . is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.”. We come to know Jesus through repenting of our sin and accepting Him as our personal sacrifice (Romans 10:9; John 1:12).

Nov 5, 2019 · What does God expect of us? He expects us to live for him just as he lived for us. Jesus lived for us, not himself. Jesus died for us, not himself. Jesus rose for us, not himself. And he is working in the world today on our behalf, that we might know him intimately and become like him. Memory Verse. “He has told you, O man, what is good; And ...

When you became a Christian, look at the weight of responsibility God carried in that process vs. your effort: 1. God chose you before the foundation of the world and called you to be his.2 2. God came to earth for you.3 3. God personally died for your sins.4 4. God made sure someone explained the gospel to you.5 5. God offered to come into your li...
You were declared forgiven by his grace (his kindness), because of Jesus’ death for you. You received his gift of forgiveness by believing that Jesus has paid for your sin, right? You didn’t earn your forgiveness. You simply believed God when he says he has forgiven you. “…when the goodness and loving kindness of God our Savior appeared, he saved u...
It is the difference between independently trying to perform for God, verses depending on God and relying on him to live through you. We do not mature into independence from God. We mature only by remaining dependent upon him, and that’s the way he wants it. He wants you to enjoy the freedom and love of being in relationship with him, trusting him,...
Now let me pose this question: What if you ask him to produce something in your life or to free you from a particular sin, and you still struggle? What if you still see your bad temper or you still see yourself giving into temptation, or you see yourself failing to pray or read your Bible like you think you should? Then what? Would that be the time...
Focus on getting to know God. Pursue knowing him better through prayer, reading the Bible, being in fellowship and teaching with other Christians…all of that is good. But your faith is not to rest in your effort, but instead in God’s ability to work in your life. Jesus said it’s like grapes on a vine. Jesus is the main vine and he said we are like ...
The right way to live, the way that you will experience a more abundant life as Jesus talked about, and become more easily convinced of his love for you is by doing what he says. Jesus said, “If you obey my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have obeyed my Father’s commands and remain in his love. I have told you this so that my joy ma...

7. What God Expects from Us. Micah 6:8 is a clear, crisp, and simple summary of what God expects from you and me. These three things that matter so much to God are the three things God wants to see in us: justice, kindness, and humility. To act justly is to treat people fairly and respectfully. You do not oppress or mistreat others.
Sep 7, 2022 · Walk in Obedience to Him. The word walk in Deuteronomy 10:12 speaks of how we live and behave. The phrase walk in obedience to him carries the idea of walking “in all his ways” (ESV) and living “in a way that pleases him” (NLT). God wants us to follow His example in every way—in holiness, love, and service. Jesus explained, “Since I ...
Sep 15, 2023 · The answer is found in Micah 6:8 – to act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God. As Christians, it is very easy to get drawn into religious demonstrations and think these are the things God desires and what pleases him. What you discover is that God is not after people who look the part.
