episode Why Do You Call Me Lord But Don’t Obey? | Luke 6:46–49 cover

Beskrivelse

Why do we say we trust Jesus… but struggle to actually follow Him?In Luke 6:46–49, Jesus asks a direct and uncomfortable question:“Why do you call me ‘Lord, Lord,’ and don’t do the things I say?”This message explores the tension between what we say we believe and how we actually live. Because at the end of the day, following Jesus isn’t just about hearing His words—it’s about obeying them.Using a powerful illustration of two builders, Jesus gives us a clear “either/or” choice:• A life built on obedience that stands firm• Or a life built on convenience that eventually collapsesAnd the difference? Not knowledge… but action.In this sermon, we explore:• Why obedience is central to following Jesus• The danger of spiritual inconsistency• How culture and comfort pull us away from obedience• What it really means to build your life on a solid foundation• Practical examples of obedience in everyday life• How to respond when God is prompting you to actLife can feel like navigating a complicated highway—especially in seasons of transition.But Jesus doesn’t give us a complicated roadmap. He gives us a clear direction:Hear His words. Do what He says.📖 Passage: Luke 6:46–49💬 Let us know in the comments:What is one area where God is calling you to obey right now?#Obedience #FaithInAction #BibleTeaching #ChristianSermon #FollowJesus@CrossCreek crosscreekchurch.com

Get This Out of My Head | How to Defeat Negative Thoughts (Philippians 4)

How do you get negative thoughts out of your head? Anxious thoughts. Fearful thoughts. Lustful thoughts. Critical thoughts. Intrusive thoughts that seem to show up without invitation. Most of us have asked the question: "How do I stop thinking about this?" In Philippians 4:6-9, the Apostle Paul gives us a powerful biblical strategy for winning the battle of the mind. The answer isn't simply trying harder or emptying your mind. The answer is what we might call the Principle of Displacement—replacing unhealthy thoughts with God's truth. In this message, you'll discover: • Why negative thoughts become strongholds in our minds • How praise can displace destructive thinking • The connection between prayer and peace of mind • How God's promises confront the lies we believe • Practical ways to guard what enters your mind • Why Scripture is one of the most powerful weapons in spiritual warfare • How consistent obedience leads to lasting peace Paul teaches that God's peace doesn't come from having perfect circumstances. It comes from bringing our worries to God, filling our minds with truth, and putting His Word into practice. If you've been battling anxiety, fear, worry, discouragement, or recurring negative thought patterns, this message will help you discover how God's peace can guard your heart and mind. 📖 Scripture: Philippians 4:6–9 ⏱️ Chapters: 00:00 Are Your Devices Listening? 04:15 The Principle of Displacement 09:20 The Battle for Your Mind 14:45 The Power of Ongoing Praise 25:00 The Power of Fervent Prayer 38:30 The Peace of God That Guards Your Mind 45:15 The Power of God's Promises 57:00 Guarding the Gates of Your Mind 1:06:00 The Power of Consistent Practice 1:13:00 Experiencing the God of Peace 💬 Discussion Question: What thought pattern has been hardest for you to overcome, and what Scripture has helped you fight it? 🙏 If this message encouraged you, share it with someone who may be struggling with anxiety, fear, or negative thinking. 🔔 Subscribe for more biblical teaching and encouragement from CrossCreek Church. #Philippians4 #RenewYourMind #ChristianSermon #Anxiety #BibleTeaching #Faith
