    Stirring a fresh passion for relationship with God.

    Dakota Community Church July 6, 2008 The Pursuit Last week we watched the latest Nooma and talked about saying yes to God and His will for our lives.

    God puts us in this world with a small subset of the human race to begin relating to. Our parents are the first representatives of fallen humanity that we meet and our first model for authority figures that we’ll meet later in life.

    Introduction Jesus said that the commandments are summed up in the dual command, "Love the Lord your God with all your heart, mind, soul and strength and your neighbour as yourself." Well today we come to the fifth commandment. This seems to be about loving your neighbour, but it’s one of the ...read more

    Receiving And Treasuring

    If we don’t understand the purpose of the Word, we’ll miss out on the life of God. Through His Word, God transforms us more into his likeness. Every word in scripture is a doorway to the heart of God and a stairway into the realms of God.

    Receiving and Treasuring – Proverbs 2:1 Intro.: The first focus that Solomon lays out has to do with the way we treat the Word of God. Proverbs 2:1 – “…if you receive my words and treasure my commands within you…” The “receiving” refers to how we posture ourselves before the Word of God and ...read more

    God is a full-fledged Father filled with emotion who longs for me to come into alignment with His heart so that He can lavish His extravagant affection on me. His Word is the pathway to this experience.

    Fascinated By The Word – Proverbs 2:1 Intro.: Most people see God as a stoic, detached Being that silently watches humanity from far away. The truth is that He is a full-fledged Father filled with emotion and who longs for, loves and even desires me and who patiently waits for me to come ...read more

    This is a short sermon on raising children, on parenting

    We are beginning a sermon series on Proverbs. I was going to call it “The High Way of Wisdom” because the book of proverbs uses that image: there is a wise path and a foolish path to follow in life. Proverbs 16:17 “The highway of the upright avoids evil; he who guards his way guards his ...read more

    We make choices everyday and in order to make the best decisions we need to seek God’s wisdom. This was delivered on graduation Sunday.

    Illustration The faculty of a college were in their annual meeting when, suddenly, an angel appeared. Turning to the Dean, the angel said, "I will grant you one of three choices -- infinite wisdom, infinite wealth or infinite health." The Dean thought for a minute, then replied "Wisdom." "So be ...read more

    The Proverbs writer instructs us to search for wisdom and understanding as if you were searching for hidden treasure.

    Finding God’s Treasure -In God’s Word- Proverbs 2:1-8 There was a man called Heinrich Schliemann, who as a boy read a translation of Homer’s account of the defeat of Troy by the Greeks.

    (Devotional Series 6/50) In these verses we learn three things about wisdom. 1.IT HAS TO BE SOUGHT BY MAN;2.IT HAS TO BE GIVEN BY GOD;3.IT HAS TO BE APPLIED TO LIFE.

    TRUE WISDOM Proverbs 2:1-15 (Devotional Series 6) It is difficult to find a precise definition for the word "wisdom" which appears so often in this book. Sometimes it is almost personnified, and some have equated it with the Holy Spirit. It is probably more exact to say that it is meant to ...read more

    The wisdom of God contains promises for living life to its fullest if we will but listen and follow in obedience.

    The Promises of Wisdom Proverbs 2:1-22 We live in a day when popular opinion says that “promises are made to be broken.” We continue to make promises, but they are broken every day. The reason that this has come about is because we are fallible human beings, sin has corrupted us at our core, and ...read more

    Tonight I want to talk about following the spirit inside you I grew up Baptist- no one ever really said “God told me!” “I think the Lord’s telling us to do …this!” That’s why so many church adopt “We’ve never done it that way” “That will never work” “We tried that once, it didn’t work” We ...read more

    In chapter 2, a father encourages his son to search diligently for this rare jewel because wisdom is not usually discovered by the casual observer. Wisdom is discovered and enjoyed only by those who are diligent, devoted, and determined to seek it.

    PROVERBS 2:1-8 DISCERNING AND DISCOVERING SPIRITUAL BLESSINGS When Betty Goldstein of Staten Island, New York, entered the hospital, her husband Ron wrapped her 3.5-carat diamond ring in a napkin for safekeeping.
