Ten Commandments on SermonAudio

The sermon explores the biblical mandate for believers to be called by name and equipped by the Holy Spirit for specific ministry. Drawing primarily from Exodus 31, it distinguishes between the internal call of God and the external affirmation of the local church, warning against self-appointed ministries. The preacher emphasizes that true effectiveness requires both an experiential encounter with God's holiness and continuous filling with His Word and power. This divine equipping provides the wisdom and skill necessary to fulfill God's commands, ensuring that all work glorifies Him rather than relying on human effort or worldly success.

34 Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience, as also saith the law. 35 And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church.

Proverbs 7:1-5 — Nobody breaks into your house to steal your Bible. All a thief has to do is steal your attention, one day at a time, until it sits unopened on the shelf. This message addresses resisting temptation and guarding your heart from sin, walking verse-by-verse through Proverbs 7:1-5 — the father's charge to his son before the young man ever meets the strange woman waiting later in the chapter. The real question this sermon raises isn't "how does a man resist temptation" but "what would make a man want to resist it in the first place" — and the answer isn't a rule. It's a family. This is also a family integrated church message at its core: a father teaching his son to call wisdom "sister" and understanding "kinswoman" — giving the boy belonging instead of a list of don'ts, so when temptation shows up, there's already something more beautiful sitting in the room. This sermon walks through Proverbs 7:1-5, explaining: - Why "keep my words" in verse 1 and "keep thee" in verse 5 are the same word turned around - What it means to "lay up" God's commandments the way a mother lays up clothes for a grandchild not yet born - Why guarding the word like "the apple of thine eye" means guarding it like an automatic reflex, not a decision - Why writing the word on the heart leaves an impression that outlasts even memory loss - Why Solomon gives his son a family — "sister" and "kinswoman" — instead of a fence of prohibitions - Why the real question isn't how to resist temptation, but what makes a man want to - Why wisdom keeps a man by outshining temptation, not by out-arguing it - How a household built on belonging protects a young man before he ever reaches the corner
