SERMON – 10th February 2019
Series: Growing in Liberty
Title: You Are Saved to Serve
Main Texts: Matthew 8:14-17
14 When Jesus came into Peter’s house, he saw Peter’s mother-in-law lying in bed with a fever. 15 He touched her hand and the fever left her, and she got up and began to wait on him.
16 When evening came, many who were demon-possessed were brought to him, and he drove out the spirits with a word and healed all the sick.17 This was to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet Isaiah:
“He took up our infirmities
and bore our diseases.”
Intro
- When I began to meditate on the entirety of the privilege, redemption, salvation, peace, fulfilment, satisfaction and joy that I have in Jesus, it was then I concluded that it must have been by grace and the mercy of God.
- Then I asked myself again! WHY HAS GOD GIVEN SO MUCH TO SAVE AND REDEEM ME?
- The selfish nature of Man would not give room to seeking why certain blessings and privileges have been given to us free.
