Today was a great day in the life and ministry of Northwood. The Lord had us take a look at a very sensetive subject and provided us with some great insight into what our response as a church and as Christians needs to be! We were taking a look at God’s command to not commit adultery! God’s commands are provided to give us boundaries, so that we will know what, where, when, how and why to live our lives. God’s command to not commit adultery is a command to practice faithfulness! God wants us to be faithful in all of our relationships!
We need to make sure that we are faithful to God by living a surrendered and yielded life to Him and His will. We need to make sure that we are faithful to our families by being committed to our spouse above all others and committed to loving our families with a love that is always looking out for the best according to God. We need to make sure that we are faithful to our friends by being an honest and available friend.
When I finished the second service today, I really felt that the messages that I delivered today, while they were not easy to deliver, they were prophetic, in that – we as a Church and as Christians had better get busy talking about the things that really matter. God deserves glory, the Chruch was created to grow and our lives are open books for blessing. We have a lot to get right and with God’s help we are going to get more and more of it right in the days ahead!
