In this sermon, we start with the reassuring words of Jesus from John 14:1, “Let not your heart be troubled.” This powerful message encourages believers to place their trust and confidence in God amidst life’s uncertainties and challenges. We explore the significance of belief—defined in the Greek as “pisteuo,” meaning to be persuaded and to place confidence in—and how this belief is foundational to our faith journey.
The sermon highlights the importance of understanding the Kingdom of God as an internal reality, as described in Luke 17:20-21, rather than a distant physical realm. By recognizing that the Kingdom is within us, we gain the perspective needed to manifest God’s authority and dominion in our lives. We are reminded that true belief leads to action and commitment, and that our spiritual growth is a continuous process requiring dedication and training.
