    The Call to Be Set Apart • Sunday Service

    Good morning, church. Today, we will delve into a crucial aspect of our Christian walk—the call to be set apart. This call is not just an invitation but a mandate for every believer. Being set apart means living a life that reflects God's holiness and love in a world that often opposes His ways. This can be challenging, but it is essential for our spiritual growth and witness.

    1. Called to Be Holy

    1 Peter 1:15-16 (NKJV) "but as He who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, because it is written, 'Be holy, for I am holy.'"

    2. A Distinct People

    Deuteronomy 14:2 (NKJV) "For you are a holy people to the Lord your God, and the Lord has chosen you to be a people for Himself, a special treasure above all the peoples who are on the face of the earth."

    3. Transformed by Renewal

    Romans 12:2 (NKJV) "And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God."

    4. Light in the Darkness

    Matthew 5:14-16 (NKJV) "You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven."

    5. Living as Pilgrims

    1 Peter 2:11-12 (NKJV) "Beloved, I beg you as sojourners and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts which war against the soul, having your conduct honorable among the Gentiles, that when they speak against you as evildoers, they may, by your good works which they observe, glorify God in the day of visitation."

    6. Walking in the Spirit

    Galatians 5:16-17 (NKJV) "I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish."

    7. Embracing Suffering for Christ

    2 Timothy 3:12 (NKJV) "Yes, and all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution."

    8. Bearing the Fruit of the Spirit

    Galatians 5:22-23 (NKJV) "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law."

    Being set apart is not merely a command; it is our identity in Christ. It is challenging, often counter-cultural, and sometimes brings suffering. However, it also brings the joy of walking closely with God and witnessing His transformative power in our lives and the lives of others. Let us commit to living lives that honor God, shining as lights in this dark world, and drawing others to His marvelous light. Amen.

    Jeremiah asked this famous rhetorical question:​

    Jeremiah 8:22 (NKJV)​, “Is there no balm in Gilead; is there no physician there? why then is there no recovery for the health of the daughter of my people.”

    Jeremiah 8:21​, “For the hurt of the daughter of my people I am hurt. I am mourning;​ Astonishment has taken hold of me.”​

    Exodus 15:26, “If you diligently heed the voice of the Lord your God and do what is right in His sight, give ear to His commandments and keep all of His statutes, I will put none of the diseases on you, which I have brought on the Egyptians. For I am the Lord who heals you.”​

    Exodus 23: 25, “And you shall serve the LORD your God, and he shall bless your bread, and your water; and I will take sickness away from the midst of you.

    Jeremiah 17:14, ​“Heal me, O Lord,​and I shall be healed; ​Save me, and I shall be saved, ​for You are my praise.”​

    Psalm 103: 1-3, “Bless the Lord, O my soul and all that is within me, bless His holy name. Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits. ​ Who forgives all your iniquities; who heals all your diseases. ”​

    Matthew 4: 23, “And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the people.”​

    Acts 10: 38, “How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit, and with power, who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil, for God was with Him.”​

    The Apostle John said:

    3 John 2, ​“Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health (hugiaino - to be sound in body) just as your soul prospers.” ​

    Genesis 37: 25, “And they sat down to eat a meal. Then they lifted their eyes and looked, and there was a company of Ismaelites coming from Gilead with their camels, bearing spices, balm, and myrrh, on their way to carry them down to Egypt.”​

    Jeremiah 17:14, “Heal me, O LORD, and I shall be healed; Save me, and I shall be saved, For You are my praise.​"

    How to Cultivate Self-Control

    3. Renew Your Mind: Transform your thoughts by immersing yourself in God's Word. Meditate on Scripture and allow it to shape your attitudes and behaviors.

    4. Stay Watchful: Be alert to the enemy's schemes and the temptations around you. Stay focused on God's promises and maintain a prayerful, vigilant attitude.

    5. Embrace Accountability: Surround yourself with fellow believers who can support and hold you accountable in your walk. Transparency and accountability help reinforce self-control.

    6. Flee Temptation: Avoid situations and environments that trigger sinful desires. Take proactive steps to remove temptations from your life.

  • Why Some "Christians" Are Blind To What's Happening | The Todd Coconato Show

    Why Some "Christians" Are Blind To What's Happening | The Todd Coconato Show
    Jul 29 2024
    Why Some "Christians" Are Blind To What's Happening | The Todd Coconato Show Website: www.PastorTodd.org To give and support this ministry work: www.ToddCoconato.com/give Spiritual Blindness and the Role of the Holy Spirit Let's explore a profound truth found in God's Word: the reality of spiritual blindness and the illuminating work of the Holy Spirit. Many wonder why some people cannot see what seems so obvious to those who are filled with God's Spirit. Let's delve into Scripture to understand why this is so, drawing wisdom from the New King James Version of the Bible. 1. 1 Corinthians 2:14 "But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned." Commentary: This verse clearly states that the natural man, one without the Holy Spirit, cannot understand the things of God. Spiritual truths are discerned spiritually, and without the Holy Spirit, they appear as foolishness. The Holy Spirit is essential for comprehending the deeper realities of God's kingdom. 2. John 14:17 "The Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you." Commentary: Jesus explains that the world cannot receive the Spirit of truth because it does not see or know Him. This highlights the separation between those filled with the Spirit and those who are not. The Spirit dwells within believers, enabling them to see and understand what others cannot. 3. 2 Corinthians 4:3-4 "But even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing, whose minds the god of this age has blinded, who do not believe, lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine on them." Commentary: Paul reveals that the gospel is veiled to those who are perishing because their minds have been blinded by the god of this age, Satan. This spiritual blindness prevents them from seeing the light of the gospel. It underscores the need for the Holy Spirit to break through this darkness. 4. Ephesians 4:18 "Having their understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God, because of the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart." Commentary: This verse describes the condition of those without the Holy Spirit: their understanding is darkened, and they are alienated from the life of God. This blindness of heart is a result of ignorance, which can only be overcome by the enlightenment of the Holy Spirit. 5. John 3:19-20 "And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed." Commentary: People often reject the light because they love darkness. This rejection is rooted in a desire to avoid exposure of their deeds. Without the Holy Spirit, there is no inclination to come into the light, as the Spirit convicts and draws us toward truth and repentance. 6. 1 John 2:11 "But he who hates his brother is in darkness and walks in darkness, and does not know where he is going, because the darkness has blinded his eyes." Commentary: Hatred and sin cause spiritual blindness, leading people to walk in darkness. This verse illustrates how living apart from God's love results in blindness. The Holy Spirit, who fosters love, is essential for clear spiritual vision. 7. Romans 8:7 "Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be." Commentary: The carnal mind is hostile to God and cannot submit to His law. This enmity creates a barrier to understanding spiritual truths. Only the Holy Spirit can transform the carnal mind, making it receptive to God's will. 8. Matthew 13:13 "Therefore I speak to them in parables, because seeing they do not see, and hearing they do not hear, nor do they understand." Commentary: Jesus used parables to illustrate spiritual truths. He acknowledges that many hear but do not understand because their hearts are not open. The Holy Spirit opens our hearts and minds to grasp the meanings behind Jesus' teachings. 9. Acts 26:18 "To open their eyes, in order to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and an inheritance among those who are sanctified by faith in Me." Commentary: Jesus commissioned Paul to open the eyes of the spiritually blind, turning them from darkness to light. This mission underscores the transformative power of the Holy Spirit, who brings enlightenment and deliverance from the power of Satan. 10. 1 Corinthians 1:18 "For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God." Commentary: The message of the cross appears as foolishness to those who are spiritually blind....

    The Call to Repentance: A Pathway to Restoration • Sunday Service

    Website: www.PastorTodd.org

    Today, we gather to delve deeply into the profound and transformative concept of repentance. Repentance is not merely an act of remorse or sorrow for past wrongdoing; it is a spiritual journey of turning away from sin and returning to God. As we explore the Scriptures together, let us open our hearts to the Holy Word and allow it to guide us on the path of repentance and restoration.

    Scripture 1: Matthew 4:17 (NKJV) "From that time Jesus began to preach and to say, 'Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.'"

    Scripture 2: Acts 3:19 (NKJV) "Repent therefore and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, so that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord."

    Scripture 3: Luke 15:7 (NKJV) "I say to you that likewise there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine just persons who need no repentance."

    Scripture 4: Acts 26:20 (NKJV) "but declared first to those in Damascus and in Jerusalem, and throughout all the region of Judea, and then to the Gentiles, that they should repent, turn to God, and do works befitting repentance."

    Scripture 5: 2 Corinthians 7:10 (NKJV) "For godly sorrow produces repentance leading to salvation, not to be regretted; but the sorrow of the world produces death."

    Scripture 6: Acts 2:38 (NKJV) "Then Peter said to them, 'Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.'"

    Scripture 7: Revelation 3:19 (NKJV) "As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Therefore be zealous and repent."

    Scripture 8: Ezekiel 18:30 (NKJV) "Therefore I will judge you, O house of Israel, every one according to his ways,' says the Lord God. 'Repent, and turn from all your transgressions, so that iniquity will not be your ruin.'"

    Scripture 9: Acts 17:30 (NKJV) "Truly, these times of ignorance God overlooked, but now commands all men everywhere to repent,"

    Scripture 10: James 4:8 (NKJV) "Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded."

    Keeping the Heart in Check: Walking in the Spirit • Friday Service

    Website: www.PastorTodd.org

    To give: www.ToddCoconato.com/give

    As believers, we are called to walk in the Spirit and not gratify the desires of the flesh. Yet, even with the best intentions, we sometimes find ourselves slipping into fleshly behaviors. Today, we will explore why this happens and how we can keep our hearts in check, aligning them with God's will.

    Matthew 15:18-19 (NKJV) "But those things which proceed out of the mouth come from the heart, and they defile a man. For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies."

    Galatians 5:16-17 (NKJV) "I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish."

    Romans 7:18-19 (NKJV) "For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh) nothing good dwells; for to will is present with me, but how to perform what is good I do not find. For the good that I will to do, I do not do; but the evil I will not to do, that I practice."

    James 1:14-15 (NKJV) "But each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own desires and enticed. Then, when desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, brings forth death."

    Philippians 4:7 (NKJV) "And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus."

    Colossians 3:2 (NKJV) "Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth."

    1 John 2:15-17 (NKJV) "Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—is not of the Father but is of the world. And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever."

    Keeping our hearts in check is crucial for living a life that honors God. By guarding our hearts, walking in the Spirit, acknowledging our weaknesses, seeking God's examination, and praying for a clean heart, we can overcome the tendencies of the flesh. Let us commit to these practices and trust in God’s grace to lead us in His ways.
