Rev Raymond Acquah SERMON: PREPARING TO SEE GOD (PSALM 24:3) God is interested in how we relate to Him and our fellow brethren (Mathew 12:34) Our actions are the reflection of what we have in our heart If you want to see God you must come with a pure heart (Mathew 5:8) Pure hearts are unpolluted, not mixed with other things. Pure hearts must be clean To maintain a pure heart we need to be loyal to God Loyalty makes us consistent with God (acts 13: 22) Absolute loyalty to God requires loyalty to your servants and to God (1 John 4:20) LOYALTY TO LEADERSHIP This is a divine requirement One of the main reasons for pre-mature death these days is because of disloyalty to our parents Loyalty is the way by which God strengthen his leaders Where there is no loyalty there’s no continuity and preservation LESSONS FROM 2king2 1. Elisha kept a close distance 2. Elisha served Elijah to the end 3. Elisha was focused REQUIREMENTS OF LOYALTY TO LEADERSHIP 1. Pleasing leadership (Genesis 27: 2. Submission (Phil 2:5) 3. Reputation (it’s easier to submit if we lower our reputation) 4. Loyalty requires love You can’t display apathy in the mist of loyalty
