Sermon Transcript Tone Analysis

We live in a world where most of us are just very isolated and and and most people they just do life.

They just go on with life.

They know a lot of people but they don't really know anyone at all to the way that you know, that you don't have anybody in your life for real is when you have something serious happened in your life when something really serious happened and you have nobody to call in to share it with and to really just see kale, that's when, you know that a I'm isolated.

And then sadly, the problem that we have in churches is that a lot of time, a lot of us, we just come to church, we see each other, we bump into each other and then till we do it again next week.

But really, there's no relationship.

And then at the end of the day, we not really living out the one another's in the Bible that God calls us to live out.

Cuz God says, we need to love one another, we need to care for one another, but, but a lot of us really when we Face difficult times, would we want to do?

We want to fold into ourselves and then we don't want to let anybody in, we just like a brick wall.

I'm not going to let anybody in.

But if that's true, then you cannot call yourself a church member.

You are not a church CNN Tower series on God's roadmap for my life, the first week, in January, we talked about God's blueprint for success.

And as we saw guide blueprint for Success, was to steady his word to do it, and then to live it out and then to share it with others.

See.

And then the following week, we we continue then talk about setting goals setting, spiritual goals for our lives family goals, career, goals and goes in every aspect of our lives.

And then last week, we reiterated that again, about key to success like into our life.

And we looked at it again in Joshua 1:8 where it says, this book of the law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night and you shall be careful to do.

All that is written in Then you will make your way prosperous and have good success.

So, God's plan is that when we read God's word, it needs to speak to our allies, we need to be mesmerized by his word, and as we look kind of, he's worth it now, I want to do it.

And if we all would be mem mesmerized by God's word, and then really meditate on God's word day and night, as the Bible calls us to do and then we meticulously do.

All that God's word tells us to do, is he would really have a better life because Bible says, you will make your very prosperous and have good success and today as God's roadmap for your life.

The other thing that you need in your life to conclude our serious, is that I need a church family.

She is a say, a lot of us we just go to church but we never really an integral part of the church.

It's like we just kind of like looking from outside in but but never be fully in.

But God says like another for you to really just enjoying the full life that I've created you to do, because God does that came to give you the bundle.

I so you would have in life to the fool and another for you to do that, you need to be part of God's family.

And that's why you need let church family.

And if we look at Acts 2 4247, it says, so those will receive his word were baptized.

That means those people who receive God's word that means, Converted receive God's word.

Says, I decide to be a follower of God today.

I am going to follow what it says.

So those people were baptized baptized simply means that a because I know God.

And now I just want to publicly make a statement saying that a I am here then you get back.

I just got to like a wedding ceremony.

See you like, you get married.

You know the ring doesn't Makes you like a married man, but it, but it shows like it's a sign showing that are you and you taking you identify saying that, hey, this is mine.

See baptism is just like a wedding with God saying that a God, I am yours and I want to publicly make it known that, a i m yours.

Is he at the beginning of the church's says those who received his word that means they became believers.

They were baptized and there were added that day, three thousand Souls.

You see?

They were counting, there were counting those people, that will were in the church and they say that ate up with the church.

And then it says, invade the voted themselves to the apostles teaching.

That's the Bible that the word of God and the fellowship.

That means, like you building relationship building a fence, take relationship with one another breaking bread.

That means you doing life together and then, praying for one another.

You see if if the church was really living in this way, when we have God's word as our standard for a living and we are in fellowship with one another words real, where it's not shallow, where it's not superficial, it's not like giving lip service, but when I ask you how you do, and you really tell me how you doing and what's going on in your life that you really tell me.

See, would we have time for depression?

Would we have time for those things when we really stay in God's word?

The Bible says, when you stay in his word, he says you will prosper and have success and everything that you do.

To the source of our depression and isolation is because we're not in God's word.

We are not in God's word and free in God's word like those Christians in the beginning of the church where they were devoted to the apostles teaching and the fellowship.

And that's why I last week my challenge for you was to the first thing you wake up in the morning to get on your knees.

Pray, and read your Bible.

so any any good stories here, any of you did that this week, When you wake up first thing in the morning and we've done it with the kids and the kids would come to our room.

We would pray, wake them up with Ray and we read your Bible.

Man.

What you just have a blast being in God's word.

You really get to be mesmerized by God's word when you really in it, you see it says they were in Fellowship.

That means they were in a relationship with one another And they were breaking bread.

They were doing life together and see you cannot effectively live life in isolation.

You cannot because that's when the Devil comes and tells all kind of lying to your mind telling you you no good to you.

Not just you, not that kind of thing.

Come into your mind when you are not in relationship.

And God created us for relationship.

Doesn't want any of us to live in isolation.

I told her it was a researcher a long steady over 90 years.

Now, doing some research on the relationship people who had like good relationship in their lives.

Does people live longer Those people had better quality of life.

And the research is up there.

I think they're in the nine years of research today.

After they have had like four different directors that they've got conducted that surveys if God created us for relationship.

And the research tells us that too, if we are not in relationship, all kind, that's when all kinds of problems start, and turning into our lives.

Just like we setting up spiritual goals and setting up family goals, and all of us came from a biological family and but also all of us need a spiritual family because in the Bible says Heaven and Earth will pass away, but my word will remain.

The only thing that will remain is God's word and fellow believers.

See, even our biological family will not last, if they are not Believers easy.

That's what the Bible says in heaven, they will not be given into marriage.

Oh man, I know like for young people.

That's like like very scary.

That was one thing that really hold me up when I was in college.

Then what do you do with anything that married?

A really, really troubled me but I did not given into marriage then that attack.

What do you do about the Bible says, you know what eyes have not seen ears?

Have not heard what God has in store for us.

Other than marriage at the storage unit to get married now.

Okay, go ahead and get married.

We love marriages on Earth.

See, but the guy thing like we need relationship, we need a church family.

There is nothing.

There's no such thing as an independent Christian and a lot of people today just want to be an independent crazy little people.

You ask them today when you talk to them this is such thing as an independent Christian.

There's no such thing as an isolated believer.

Luther trying because the Bible says, we all going to go to heaven.

If you're going to go to heaven, you don't know anybody there.

Think, I don't know people here.

It's worth says, they were devoted to the apostles, teaching of you are studying God's word together.

They were in Fellowship, the breaking of bread and prices all came up on every soul in Many Wonders, and signs were being done through the apostles and all who believed were together and had all things in common and they were selling their possessions and belongings and distributing the proceeds to all as Amy had need to either.

We're going to the persecution at the time and a lot of the believer original from Jerusalem.

Need it helps a believer's were selling what they had to take care of those believers who had need and just the same for us.

We need to go sell our things.

Thank God, we're leaving the great country that a lot of us have opportunities to take care of ourselves.

But from time to time, some of us will have knees.
