Speaker: Jeremy Utley Title: Turn Cares Into Prayers Date: 5/11/21 Our Goal as Christians is this: To be an exact reflection of Jesus, the Son of God (Romans 8:29) We do this individually by growing in purity in our personal lives (1 John 3:2-3) We do this corporately by becoming fully functioning members of a local Church (Ephesians 4:11-16)
Summary
The central message is that casting our cares upon the Lord is a profound act of humility, which in turn helps us remain sober-minded and resist spiritual attack. The speaker draws from 1 Peter 5:6, emphasizing that we humble ourselves under God's mighty hand by entrusting our anxieties to Him. This practice is presented not only as a means of humility but also as a way to be spiritually alert and receive God's perfecting, confirming, strengthening, and establishing grace.
