    Render To God The Things That Are God's

    Contributed by Jason Smith on Sep 11, 2013
     | 12,198 views

    Jesus says, "Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's; and to God the things that are God's" (Matt 22:21). Most sermons on this verse deal with the first part of this verse, but what does the second part mean? What does it mean to render to God?

    MAIN TEXT: Matt 22:15-22 (parallels in Mark 12:13–17 and Luke 20:20–26) The Jews were desperately seeking to discredit Jesus, because within the context, He was speaking parables against them. They would stop at nothing to do so. Within the context of this verse, various groups ask Him ...read more

    Consumed With God: The Pursuit Of God Series

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Apr 23, 2024
     | 971 views

    We are consumed by God completely… while our obsession used to be selfishness and self destruction and we were very excited about that, we now pursue knowing God with abandon.

    My wife tells me that I sometimes become nearly obsessed with certain things. I get so focused on something it consumes me. I fall into the pool after staring into it too long. Are you like that? I have a bit of an obsessive, addictive personality. I want it and I want more. I want to learn more. ...read more

    God desires that we sense that we are safe in this life. However, many of God’s people live life in fear rather than safety.

    A Safe Place Vision Sunday Ps 16:1-3…Keep me safe, O God, for I have come to you for refuge. I said to the LORD, "You are my Master! All the good things I have are from you."

    based on 4 ratings
     | 15,228 views

    Joshua’s life reminds us that success in life depends on obedience to God’s Word and a desire in your life to become a God Chaser.

    Communion Challenge: I have this quote/question to stir us from, “God Chasers” today: “We think we know where God lives. We think we know what He likes, and are sure we know what He dislikes. We have studied God’s Word and His old love letters to the churches so much that some of us claim to know ...read more

    Jesus’ answer reveals that we have obligations both to man and God. Are we aware of our obligations toward God? What do we really owe Him? Our life - time, tithe, talents, and sharing our faith, among other things.

    All of us have payments to make. All of us have obligations to meet. It is a way of life. • We owe for the car. We owe for the house. We owe for the fridge. • A bumper sticker reads, “We owe, we owe, so off to work we go.” • We’ve got to work because we’ve so much to pay up. Along with the ...read more

    God’s great plan is eternal because he set it out before the creation of the world, because it’s effective right now and because it reaches into the future to the end of time. This eternal, cosmic plan is being worked out day by day and we’re part of it.

     | 1,386 views

    In faith and trust of God, the righteous will find comfort in captivity. Wisdom will be given for those who seek to find it.

    God never forsakes his own. Today we will begin to see comfort given to His righteous captives by some prophecies foretold of a physical literal nature of their future; perhaps way into the future until the dispersing of Christians in AD 70, or beyond. Daniel’s comfort lieth in understanding God’s ...read more

    God’s Dreams For You

     | 8,935 views

    The Hebrew word translated “plans” in Jer. 29:11 (machashabah) means “imaginations” (Prov. 6:18; Lam. 3:60-61). It could read, “I know the imaginations I have for YOU…” God has dreams of what He'd like to do for you; are you willing to step into them?

    GOD’S DREAMS FOR YOU Jer. 29:11 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: NOT FORGIVING, GOING FISHING 1. There was a little boy in the grocery store with his mother. He’d already gotten in trouble for touching things, and was forbidden to touch anything on the shelves. 2. When his Mom had her back turned, she ...read more
