Anw here is one of the sermons:
Four Kinds of heart Conditions
(Matthew 13:3-8)
1. A hardened heart (v4)
(Matthew 13:19)
One may be able to understand the bible after processing it in his mind, but not in his heart. God is the source of life. A hardened heart, a heart that refuses to listen to god, leads to self-destruction, as we cannot hear what god has to say. Our hearts will go astray. (Jeremiah 23:29)
The word of God is like a hammer and a fire that softens our hearts, even the hardest ones... We have to make a redical change!
2. A shallow Heart
(Matthew 13:20-21)
Excitement alone is not enough. Christianity is not about a bed of roses and instead, we need debts and burdens to help strengthen us! Keep our promises to God as he keep his! A shallow heart cannot stand firm on the word, promises and excitement. It is like a rocky path where the seed is scattered, which cannot grow consistantly!
--> Build on the word
(Luke 6:48-49)
Do i have a good foundation? It helps build on the word of God!
3. A divided heart (v7)
People who sincerely loves God but also the world. People who sits on a fence WILL fall. Do not love the world. It is a dangerous condition as it is not obvious and no servant can serve 2 masters! Do NOT serve the world! Who am i living for??? Myself? God? Fame? Waealth? We do not have to hide from the world, but live it AND hide from the influences of the world! What really matters?! We have ONE LIFE to live.
..> Value eternal things
(Matthew 13:44-46)
Give up everything you have for God! Give them up Joyfully, as things of the world are just tools!
4: A responsive heart (v8)
A responsive heart will grow the seed well. Hear and understand. The "Heroes" in the bible all have responsive hearts. Choose to obey god and he will use you powerfully, to do great things. All of us have major flaws, but as long as we have responsive hearts, God will use us to do great things.
(Matthew 7:13-14)
