The Fake Coronation For The Real King
Dec 11 2023
The Fake Coronation For The Real King
Ever felt the sting of disappointment? You're not alone. We're about to explore the twists and turns of unmet expectations and their far-reaching implications. We'll uncover how our desires, when not aligned with God's will, can lead to feelings of bitterness, sadness, and self-pity. Yet, there's a silver lining, a beautiful concept: hope deferred. When a longing is fulfilled, it breathes life into us and our surroundings, a testament to God's plan for our lives. Shifting our attention to Jesus, we discuss how maintaining a clear vision of Him is crucial in navigating life's challenges. Through the enthralling narrative of His entry into Jerusalem, we glean lessons from the doubts of Judas and the devious plots of the chief priests. Are you, like Judas, straying from the narrow path Jesus has set? Or perhaps, like the chief priests, you're allowing worldly pursuits to overshadow His calling? Let's take a moment and realign ourselves, recognizing the importance of prioritizing Jesus and His mission over transient earthly pursuits.In our exploration of Jesus riding into Jerusalem on a donkey, we confront the stark reality of the crowd's disappointment when Jesus, their hailed king, did not meet their expectations. Their confusion and frustration hold a mirror to us. How often have we used the gospel to fuel personal ambition, forgetting to submit to Jesus' authority? The call to surrender, to seek His kingdom first, resonates throughout this episode. So, let's heed this call to action, relinquishing any areas of our lives we've been withholding from God, and begin living in the light of eternity. Support the show

From Thanksgiving to Black Friday: A Cultural Paradox
Ever wonder why we're quick to transition from Thanksgiving's gratitude to the frantic rush of Black Friday deals? This episode takes a hard look at this cultural paradox, casting a new light on the true essence of Thanksgiving. Join us as we celebrate our podcast's first anniversary and reflect on our mission of scriptural teaching, congregational singing, discipleship, prayer, and fellowship with a year of God's unwavering faithfulness. We'll also dig into the heart of Thanksgiving and the importance of not just giving thanks, but acknowledging to whom we are thankful.Do you feel the power of gratitude is often lost in today's fast-paced society? We tackle this issue head-on, sharing a poignant story of a teacher's unexpected pizza delivery, which prompts us to contemplate our own direction of thankfulness. We discuss the pitfalls of an ungrateful society and its negative traits, then lighten the mood with an inspiring story of a woman who battles her physical limitations with a spirit of gratitude, proving that this attitude indeed overcomes bitterness. We dive deeper into the conversation, discussing how to respond to brokenness with love and forgiveness. It's not always easy, but with God's guidance, we can become agents of healing in our communities. We draw upon the wisdom of Ephesians 5:15, emphasizing the importance of continuous gratitude to God for every blessing, big or small. As we wrap up, we reflect on our success and express our gratitude to you, our listeners, for your support. We also chat about the importance of financial support for ministries and podcasts like ours, and how you can get involved. So tune in, and let's explore the transformative power of gratitude together. Support the show

A Recipe For Life Change, Jesus Heals a Paralytic, Mark 2:1-12
This message was preached at ILOE Church on March 12, 2023 By Pastor Slaveck Moraru for more media content visit iloechurch.comMark 2:2 And when he returned to Capernaum after some days, it was reported that he was at home. 2 And many were gathered together, so that there was no more room, not even at the door. And he was preaching the word to them. 3 And they came, bringing to him a paralytic carried by four men. 4 And when they could not get near him because of the crowd, they removed the roof above him, and when they had made an opening, they let down the bed on which the paralytic lay. 5 And when Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralytic, “Son, your sins are forgiven.” 6 Now some of the scribes were sitting there, questioning in their hearts, 7 “Why does this man speak like that? He is blaspheming! Who can forgive sins but God alone?” 8 And immediately Jesus, perceiving in his spirit that they thus questioned within themselves, said to them, “Why do you question these things in your hearts? 9 Which is easier, to say to the paralytic, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Rise, take up your bed and walk’? 10 But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins”—he said to the paralytic— 11 “I say to you, rise, pick up your bed, and go home.” 12 And he rose and immediately picked up his bed and went out before them all, so that they were all amazed and glorified God, saying, “We never saw anything like this!” Support the show
