Topic: Holiness

Notes:
- People have lost delight, lost sight of God’s perfect design

- When we’ve lost tough with God, we have no true delight
- Rites of passage: cursing, drinking, smoking, fornication (rebellion)
- People get stuck in lifestyle of rebellion
- Hugh Heffner-declared a liberator, all about selfish pleasure, is a lie
- Delight in the law of the Lord
- Marriage-story of mother and father, always delighted in one another
- We are the bride of Christ; He delights in us
- Commune with the Lord, delight in Him in every situation
- It doesn’t matter what we feel but what is true
- When He changes our heart, we desire what He gives

Scripture Ref: I Chronicles 16:29

Topic: Holiness

Notes:
- Everybody worships, people put together all kinds of religions, some go to different churches but don’t belong to one body of worship
- We’ve made place of worship a choice, but where does God want us?
- Churches are marketing quick fixes, but we must pray through and wait on the Lord
- Woman in church: her life sanctified her husband, he was saved
- Mentally challenged woman who used gov’t check to help poor
- You worship what you fear
- Love Him with everything, in every part of life
- Satan tempts us, deny yourself
- People want a savior they can applaud, but we are to worship and serve
- We are created in His image, for His purpose. He is holy, so be holy
- There is no private sin because we are a family, a community
- Ugly worship is done by those who don’t walk in righteousness, fellowship with the believers.
