Sermons About Idolatry
Genuine Joy
Every decision that we make and every action that we take is an attempt by us to gain some measure of happiness. The Bible calls us to rejoice in the Lord. Genuine joy can be found in having our relationship with God restored through faith in Christ and celebrating all that He has saved us from and all that He has given us now that we are adopted into His family. Joy can also be found in walking in God’s ways and obeying His commands. There is also joy in using the creation in the way that God intended and enjoying the good gifts that God has given us without making them into idols. We often short circuit this process and end up miserable and frustrated because we get so caught up in trying to get joy out of creation that we neglect our relationship with God and start disobeying his good commands in a futile attempt to get more joy, but God calls us to first and foremost seek our joy in Him. This sermon was originally preached at Alathia on 8/17/08 but the recording was lost to technical difficulties. This recording is from the same sermon preached at Taproot Church in Des Moines, WA, on 8/31/08.
