Sermon clips from Burwood East churches

45s
“There will be opposition from the enemy when you step into this area. They will. Don't be afraid of it. You have the authority in Jesus to rebuke it so that you can do what the Lord has called you to do in this area. And just before we finish, I think it would be prudent just to put a couple of guardrails onto how we prophesy, how we use prophecy. If the Lord is wanting to speak something to us to be spoken out through us for somebody else, we need to make sure that we are being pastoral and caring about their needs. So please, no dates, no mates, no babies. Yeah?”
42s
“Now isn't it fascinating that we have two stories four chapters apart about a miraculous release from prison? But one of the people runs and the other stays. Why? Because it seems to me that in in in human wisdom, if you were miraculously released from prison, you would run. You would disappear straight away. This is the lord. He sent this earthquake so that we could escape. Let's go. Right? But Paul doesn't. And the text doesn't tell us why, but I dare say there's really only one good reason because he was listening to the voice of God.”
34s
“Because if you can hear the voice of the Lord and you can speak out the voice of the Lord, then what happens? Things change. Atmospheres change. People's lives change. Cultures change. Communities change. The voice of the Lord brings change. It brings transformation. And so he's saying, this is what I want for you to engage in. This is what I want for you to eagerly desire more than the other gifts. And so he he is speaking about this concept of a of a revelation from God that is given to be spoken out to other people.”
38s
“Now if you're that person and you're receiving that word and it's spot on, that person may not even believe in God, and all of a sudden, they're having to ask the question, god sees me? God sees me and wants to speak to me? God sees me and wants to speak to me and sent a person to come and speak to me who's a stranger, who knows things about me that they can't possibly know? All of a sudden you see a door is open in the heart of somebody. And what does it require? It requires someone who has the courage to speak out the word of God when he places it on their heart.”
45s
“"The Bible says, all of us have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God, which sounds great in theory because we're all painted by the same brush. Until you sin, you lose your moral boundaries. You're told a lie. You stole something. You cheated. You're rude. You're angry. You're nasty. You're whatever it might be. And you have a sense of failure. The Holy Spirit convicts you at the moment. Like you might say, everything you just said is on my list. It's fine to speak in theory, but at the point of personal failure, it's like the wind goes out of our sails."”
36s
“"We need to have this experience that the call of God to be involved is not based on our personal goodness. This is described as a twice-born faith. So we have our initial faith. That's a faith where we put our trust in Jesus and He saves us. We're forgiven of our sins. Is that your experience? I'm going to give you an opportunity. If you've never put your faith in Jesus, shortly, those online, I'm going to give you an opportunity to put your faith in Jesus."”
43s
“"If you fail to win a medal, we don't have a good tolerance of failure at all sorts of different levels in our society. But God has a high tolerance for failure. If you'll be a disciple maker, the person that you are discipling to faith in Jesus will fall off the wagon sometimes. And that is not your moment to turn your back on them. That is your moment to draw near, to go where they're at, to actually help them to realize the reality of forgiveness and restoration, which is the third thing I pick up from this, that restoration and recommissioning are needed."”
33s
“"This passage also demonstrates for me that God has a very high tolerance for failure. Edie came out of some of her personal devotions more than a year ago. And she said to me, you know, she said, I noticed something. She said, God has a very high tolerance for failure, but a low tolerance for disobedience. And she said, but we seem to have flipped the script because we have a high tolerance for disobedience. We can live with it. But we have a low tolerance for failure."”
44s
“"If you'll be a disciple maker, you need to actually go to where people are rather than expect people to come to you. It's really nice and all to maybe invite a friend, a coworker, a neighbor, a family member to church, you know, like come into our space. But it's an entirely different thing for you to go to where people are as a Jesus representative. Jesus went to where the disciples were. Jesus went to the beach. Jesus is waiting on the beach. He's got the coal fire going. He's already got some fish and bread cooking while they're 100 meters out being absolutely fruitless in their activities."”
46s
“"The Bible says if any person is in Christ, they are a new creation. The old is gone and the new has come. This is your moment of a fresh start, a new life. And it might only be you. It might only be you. But if it is you, own it now and give God your yes. On the count of three, if that is you, and we have one of those beautiful Bibles we want to put in your hand. If it is you, and those online, on the count of three, you type yes. In the room, raise your hand and lift your face and capture my attention."”
