Selby shared a timely exhortation on true discipleship. From Luke 21:34, he reminded us that the cares of this life are always pressing in, and if we are not watchful, they can quietly consume our hearts. In a time when the love of many is growing cold, we were encouraged to honestly examine our spiritual condition and allow the Lord to draw us back where needed.

The central scripture of the morning came from Luke 12:34, “Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” Selby emphasised that God continually works in us to uproot anything that competes for our devotion (Jeremiah 1:10). The call was not simply to adjust our outward priorities, but to let the Lord deal with the deeper issues of the heart because discipleship flows from what we truly treasure.

He also pointed us to the parable of the sower in Luke 8, highlighting the things that choke the life of God like worries, riches, and pleasures. We were encouraged to let go of whatever hinders spiritual growth, trusting that we are safe in the hands of Jesus. When we take up our cross daily, we learn to follow Him in true freedom and simplicity of heart.

On Sunday, Selby brought a timely encouragement for us to set our hearts on the things of the Kingdom. He reminded us of Jesus’ call to seek first His Kingdom, urging us to trust God rather than being consumed by the worries of tomorrow. Our confidence must rest in His care, not in our own ability.

Selby showed from Scripture that our homes, families, finances, and possessions are blessings entrusted to us for the sake of the Gospel (Mark 10:29–30). These gifts carry purpose, and we were challenged to invest our lives into what holds eternal value.

He reassured us that this is not a call to poverty, but a call to right priorities, to desire the life of Christ above all else.

Selby also encouraged us with Romans 14:17, reminding us that the Kingdom of God is not about eating and drinking but about righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.

We ended our meeting with a precious time in the presence of the Lord as brothers and sisters strengthened one another in prayer.

May the Lord continue to align our hearts with His purposes and help us live each day with our eyes on His Kingdom.

This Sunday, Selby shares his first message after returning from Mauritius, asking a vital question: “How are you in the Lord?”
He encourages us to allow the character of Christ to grow in us, to yield to the Lord’s ongoing construction in our hearts, and to examine ourselves to see whether we are truly walking in the faith.
Drawing from Matthew 16:25, he challenges us to reflect on where our desires lie and how they shape our daily walk with Jesus.
