Faith Promise - 5/24 / The Big Ten
How great thou art … indeed
Today we’re talking about the second and seventh commandments:
- Exodus 20:4
- Exodus 20:14
“Whose are you?” (???)
Exodus 20:1-21 - the full Ten Commandments.
Focusing today specifically on Exodus 20:3-6.
“… for I the Lord your God am a jealous God”
Unfaithfulness always starts with an idol … that we feed.
An idol is anything that becomes more important to you than God.
Hosea 1:2-3 - the Redeeming Love story
Hosea 2:14-20 - our God is compassionate and merciful.
Hosea 3:1-5 - our God will redeem us.
Matthew 5:27-30 - the condition of our heart matters.
If you only ever manage your behavior and don’t change your heart, you’re already losing.
It all starts and ends with the condition of our heart. That’s where real change happens.
Real healing starts with genuine repentance.
Psalm 51:1-19, specifically, Psalm 51:10
