Just as you count the cost before starting any project, you must do the same before entering a relationship.

Christian dating is not casual. It is intentional, with marriage in view. Without the right structures, relationships can crumble. So you must learn the key principles for building relationships.

How do you know when you are in love? Most of the time, what we think of as love is probably just an infatuation or lust for someone.

Feelings are not enough reason to date a person and more so for the wrong reasons identified in this sermon.

It is important to consider real-life issues, and things of priority when you are in a dating relationship. This sermon gives more insight ois.

As believers, God would have us love his own way

To have God centered relationships. As believers, we should not do things as the world but in dating we should date into marriage.

God shows us how love is done in the example of his son Jesus Christ. So we learn how to love from Christ

God's glory reflects His weight, worth, and attributes, revealed when all creation responds to Him. Through Abraham and his descendants, God chose to bless the world, ensuring His glory fills the earth. As His vessels, our highest priority is to live for His glory, consecrated and set apart. Consecration is key to seeing, living in, and walking in His glory.

We cannot deny the work of the supernatural in certain things that happen. The believer has authority over these situations.

In this sermon, we learn about the authority we have over principalities and powers and how in the name of Jesus, every knee must bow.

We learn here about the confidence we must have in that name 'Jesus' and in that name we can relieve the oppressed and liberate the captive.

A name is not just a means of identification; it carries the weight of reputation. In Jesus Christ, we see the fulfillment of all the names of God revealed in the Old Testament. Each name finds its ultimate expression in Him. Jesus is the perfect revelation of God’s character and reputation.

When you believed the gospel, you were welcomed into God’s family and given access to His authority. The name of Jesus is more than a word. Through His name, every believer is empowered to cast out demons and break strongholds.

The glory of God is the weight of God. It is everything that He is. And this is manifested in different ways to men on the Earth.

But no matter the form of the manifestation, it has been and will always be about the message- the message of the God’s glory, the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Spiritual beings are real, and there’s a devil out there who doesn’t want the best for you. The world we live in has both natural and supernatural elements, and it’s important to remember that not everything in the natural world is good.

As believers, how do we deal with this? How do we exercise our authority? And how did we come about this power?

A man can only be saved by faith in Jesus Christ and Jesus Christ alone. Everything God did in salvation was about Him and not us. Our salvation is for God's glory.

Growing in the knowledge of the message of God’s glory (the gospel) is how we flourish in the faith, and experience the glory.

The glory of God is the weight of God and the expression of His attributes. It is also not just a message but an experience. The believer has access to this experience by believing in Christ Jesus.

The first step is to believe in the message of God. Then you will have the glorious experience of receiving the message of His glory and being backed up by the force of His glory.

We enter into the new year full of His glory.
