Summary: This sermon explores the concept of finding true satisfaction in Christ, not just during Christmas but throughout life. It emphasizes the importance of wholehearted devotion to God, as exemplified by Simeon in the Bible. The pastor encourages listeners to lay down their lives before God, seeking intimacy with Him rather than chasing after experiences. The message highlights that hearing God's voice is accessible to all believers and that true satisfaction comes from a relationship with Jesus, not from material possessions or fleeting moments.

 

Key Points:

  • We are built for encountering God, which should change our lives
  • Consecration is an invitation to intimacy with God, not a burden
  • God is still speaking, and we need to position ourselves to listen
  • Jesus exposes the darkness in our hearts, provoking opposition to His reign
  • Satisfaction is found in a person (Jesus), not in moments or experiences
  • Hearing God's voice is a birthright for every child of God
    • Living a life wholeheartedly devoted to God allows Him to show Himself strong
