Podcasts about god our father

Where does Avinu Malkeinu come from, why do we say it on Rosh Hashanah, and what does it mean to call God “Our Father, Our King?” Rabbi Elie Kaunfer considers these questions in his lecture, which was originally recorded in Elul 2021.

Jesus enjoyed a special relationship with God the Father, even addressing Him with the loving term of endearment, Abba. The children of Israel always understood God was their father, and He called them His children—even His firstborn. But through Jesus the veil of our sin is removed, and we are invited to enter into a level of relationship where we, too, cry out “Abba, Father!”

At the beginning of our Week of Prayer Dan encourages us to come together and pray to God Our Father.

On Labor Day weekend, Pastor Anthony Cozzello encourages us to remember that we are children of God and He is our everlasting Father.

The word ‘father' can evoke many different reactions. For some it holds meaning that is positive and wonderful, and yet for others it can have quite the opposite effect. When Jesus was asked to teach his disciples to pray, he began with the words, Our Father. In this sermon Ross Savill will be speaking as we take some time to look at God our Father, and how incredible and good it is that this is the relationship he has made possible for us.

This week we wrapped up our Relationship Status series with maybe the most important relationship of all: our relationship with God.

God Our Father, the author of time, knew exactly what He was doing when He created you! Doc shares how everything is taken into account when God created us and the responsibility as followers of Christ to answer to His call.

The Love of God Our Father by Mountain View Church

The fact that God can be our Father is possibly one of the most important things that the Bible tells us. Jesus came and lived and died, so that we could have a family relationship with God — so that we can call God “Father.” This should be a source of wonder for us, something that electrifies us, and should never be commonplace. If God is our Father, then, what does that mean? 1) To live in covenant; 2) To live in grace; 3) To live in confidence when bad things are happening; 4) To live in intimacy; 5) To live in gratitude.  This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on June 5, 2011. Series: To Know the Living God – The Adequacy of God. Scripture: Psalm 103:1-18.

First ReadingEZEKIEL 36:23-2823And I will vindicate the holiness of my great name, which has been profaned among the nations, and which you have profaned among them; and the nations will know that I am the LORD, says the Lord GOD, when through you I vindicate my holiness before their eyes. 24For I will take you from the nations, and gather you from all the countries, and bring you into your own land. 25I will sprinkle clean water upon you, and you shall be clean from all your uncleannesses, and from all your idols I will cleanse you. 26A new heart I will give you, and a new spirit I will put within you; and I will take out of your flesh the heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh. 27And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes and be careful to observe my ordinances. 28You shall dwell in the land which I gave to your fathers; and you shall be my people, and I will be your God.Responsorial PsalmPSALMS 51:12-15, 18-1910Create in me a clean heart, O God, and put a new and right spirit within me. 11Cast me not away from thy presence, and take not thy holy Spirit from me. 12Restore to me the joy of thy salvation, and uphold me with a willing spirit. 13Then I will teach transgressors thy ways, and sinners will return to thee. 16For thou hast no delight in sacrifice; were I to give a burnt offering, thou wouldst not be pleased. 17The sacrifice acceptable to God is a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.GospelMATTHEW 22:1-141And again Jesus spoke to them in parables, saying, 2"The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a king who gave a marriage feast for his son, 3and sent his servants to call those who were invited to the marriage feast; but they would not come. 4Again he sent other servants, saying, `Tell those who are invited, Behold, I have made ready my dinner, my oxen and my fat calves are killed, and everything is ready; come to the marriage feast.' 5But they made light of it and went off, one to his farm, another to his business, 6while the rest seized his servants, treated them shamefully, and killed them. 7The king was angry, and he sent his troops and destroyed those murderers and burned their city. 8Then he said to his servants, `The wedding is ready, but those invited were not worthy. 9Go therefore to the thoroughfares, and invite to the marriage feast as many as you find.' 10And those servants went out into the streets and gathered all whom they found, both bad and good; so the wedding hall was filled with guests. 11"But when the king came in to look at the guests, he saw there a man who had no wedding garment; 12and he said to him, `Friend, how did you get in here without a wedding garment?' And he was speechless. 13Then the king said to the attendants, `Bind him hand and foot, and cast him into the outer darkness; there men will weep and gnash their teeth.' 14For many are called, but few are chosen."

Matthew 6:9-13

Luke 11:1-13Jesus was in a certain place praying and when he was finished, one of his disciples came to him and said to him, “Lord, teach us to pray as John taught his disciples.” Jesus said to him, “When you pray, say, ‘Father, hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come. Give us each day our daily bread. Forgive us our sins as we, ourselves, forgive everyone indebted to us. And do not bring us to the time of trial.”And he said to them, “Suppose one of you has a friend and you came to him at midnight saying, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves of bread, for a friend of mine has arrived and I have nothing to set before him.' And the reply comes, ‘Do not bother me, for the doors are already locked and my children are in bed with me, I cannot get up and give you anything.' I tell you, even if he will not give him anything because he is his friend, at least because of his persistence will he get up and give him whatever he needs”Therefore, ask and you will receive. Search and you will find. Knock and the door will be opened for you. For everyone who asks receives and everyone who searches finds and for whoever knocks the door will be opened. For who among you, if your child asked for a fish would give a snake? Or if he asked for an egg would give a stone? If you, then, who are evil, know how to give good things to your children when they ask, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him?” I always wonder all the same things about this passage whenever I read it – the same things wondered over and over again by faithful people for generations. Like about how certain Jesus seems to be about God's willingness and ability to answer prayers. Like, about how everyone who asks receives, and everyone who searches finds, and how for everyone who knocks the door will be opened. And I wondered, again, about how I don't really buy that, if I'm honest.Not everyone receives what they want. Everyone doesn't find what they're looking for. The doors don't always open for everyone all of the time.But I wondered this time around, too, about what those disciples were after in the first place, in that moment when they ask Jesus to teach them to pray.And if you were here last week, you know that just before today's conversation, Jesus was at his friend Martha's house. And, while Martha was busy running around with all sorts of things to do, Mary sat still, and quiet, and listening at the feet of Jesus. And, when Martha – the busy-body – asked Jesus to make Mary – the slacker – give her a hand, Jesus surprises them all by praising Mary for getting it right, suggesting there was something to this whole still, silent, humble, listening “thing” she was up to.And then, today, we hear Jesus was in a certain place praying – probably being still, silent, humble, and listening to God, just like Mary had done not long before. And we're told, this is when one of the disciples comes to Jesus and say, “Lord, teach us to pray.”So I wonder if maybe they don't just want in on this prayer thing. I wonder if they noticed the kudos Mary received for getting it right. And we know this wasn't the first and only time they'd seen Jesus go off somewhere “to a certain place,” set apart, all by his lonesome, to pray. And I imagine they were quite aware of the difference it made in his life.What if all of that wisdom came from his ability to listen, first, to what God had to say to him?What if all of his power came from his willingness, first, to sit humbly in the presence of his creator?What if all of his stamina came from his ability to sit down, shut up, and be still, in the first place?What if all of his wisdom and understanding; all of his counsel and might; all of his presence of mind; his patience and grace; his power to forgive; what if all of that grew out of those moments he spent receiving whatever he got during his time spent in prayer?Who wouldn't want in on that? Jesus, teach us to pray!But, I think the Church in the world – and “professional prayers,” like me, if you will – and the liturgical police (those men and women who put too many rules around what can or can't or should or shouldn't be done or said or sung or spoken in worship) – I think all of that has turned the practice of prayer into something like a magic trick that won't bear fruit or yield results or have meaning, even, if it's not done in just the right way, with just the right words, for only the right reasons by only the right people.And what I hear Jesus saying is that none of that's true. Yeah, he suggests some words and ways to go about it, like those suggestions we've turned into the Lord's Prayer:“Father, hallowed be thy name,” which is just a matter of posture and perspective, if you ask me. It's a way of lowering ourselves, humbling ourselves, placing ourselves in the proper place at the feet of, at the mercy of our maker. And “Your kingdom come.” That seems like a catch-all and a time-saver to me, because if God's kingdom were to come, the need for the rest of whatever we could pray for wouldn't be necessary. It covers everything we might miss and it makes up for everything we might get wrong.But being that the kingdom hasn't come in all its fullness just yet, we're encouraged to pray “Give us each day our daily bread.” In other words, in the meantime, while we're still waiting, give us what we need to get by and teach us to trust that you will.“And forgive us our sins, as we forgive those around us.” Or, “Help us to do unto others what we pray you'll do for us.”And finally, when we don't live up to your expectations – when we can't forgive, when we can't love our neighbors as ourselves – spare us the consequences. “Save us from the time of trial,” because not one of us could bear it.But, other than all of that, rather than make up a list of rules; rather than hand out a script or a hymnal or a bulletin; rather than do the praying on their behalf, Jesus says, “Ask.” “Search.” “Knock.” And then he promises that it will work!And I learned something new and enlightening and very refreshing from Rachel Held Evans when a group of us read her book Inspired earlier this year. Because this “Ask… Search… Knock,” bit is hard to swallow, right? It seems too simple, too easy, too pie-in-the-sky, and like something every single one of us has evidence to disprove.Who among us hasn't asked for something, in prayer, that never came? Who among us hasn't searched and scoured and sought an answer we never found? Who among us hasn't knocked on a door that never opened? (… and that never turned into an open window, either, as that platitude goes.)Well, bear with me here, because Rachel Held Evans wasn't talking about prayer, but she wrote this about that whole “ask, search, knock” stuff:“If you are looking for [Bible] verses with which to oppress women, you will find them. If you are looking for verses with which to honor and celebrate women, you will find them. If you are looking for reasons to wage war, there are plenty. If you are looking for reasons to promote peace, there are plenty more. If you are looking for an outdated and irrelevant ancient text, that's exactly what you will see. If you are looking for truth, that's exactly what you will find.”And then she says:“This is why there are times when the most instructive question to bring to the text is not ‘What does this say?' but, ‘What am I looking for?' I suspect Jesus knew this when he said, ‘Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.”Again, Rachel Held Evans isn't talking about prayer. She's talking about our approach to scripture, in general: that how we begin … our perspective … our desired outcome … what it is we're looking for … determines what we will find in the Bible.And I think this might be Jesus' point where prayer is concerned, too – and why he says all of that really important stuff first, before the “ask, knock, search” bit. Maybe he's saying that if and when we begin our prayers with the proper posture of reverence for God (“Our Father in heaven…”), when we start with humility about ourselves (“hallowed by your name…”), when we begin with the truth about what and how much we actually need (“give us this day our daily bread…”); not more, not less, but enough for today, when we start by acknowledging our own sins and our great potential for more of them (“forgive us our trespasses and lead us not into temptation”), and when we start with our hope for redemption and salvation in the end (“thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory, forever) ……when that is our state of mind, when that is our heart's posture, when we approach our conversations with God with that sort of humility and hope, then what we're asking for evolves, the doors we're knocking on are different, and the stuff we're seeking for ourselves and in this world will change in holy ways, unselfish ways, hopeful, faithful, merciful ways…… ways that make God smile and allow us to see God respond – not with the stuff of this world, like fish or snakes, eggs or stones – but with the everlasting, life-giving, eternal things of God's holy spirit.Amen

In our jaded days of fraudulent phone scams, you can be sure it raises a few eyebrows to hear Paul announced that we've qualified to be a part of group that has received something that sounds too good to be true. Our first response may be, "What must I do?" But the apostle goes on to assure us that God the Father has qualified us for eternal life by what He sent His Son to accomplish for us.

Ephesians 1:2-7 www.ekronbaptistchurch.com https://fb.watch/ef01r0zj-D/

As followers of Jesus Christ….We believe that God is Our Father. He's not just the Father of Jesus, but He is Our Father. To know God Almighty as God Our Father is one of the greatest revelations any person can ever have in their lifetime. In part 2 of this series, Pastor Dave teaches how this simple truth can completely change our identity.

Q. 100 What doth the preface to the Lord's Prayer teach us---A. The preface to the Lord's Prayer -which is, Our Father, which art in heaven- teacheth us to draw near to God with all holy reverence and confidence, as children to a father, able and ready to help us- and that we should pray with and for others.--Why does Jesus tell us to use the plural word Our when we address God- Our Father in heaven instead of My Father in heaven-

God is our father, we have the God-DNA in us.

GospelMATTHEW 8:23-2723And when he got into the boat, his disciples followed him. 24And behold, there arose a great storm on the sea, so that the boat was being swamped by the waves; but he was asleep. 25And they went and woke him, saying, "Save, Lord; we are perishing." 26And he said to them, "Why are you afraid, O men of little faith?" Then he rose and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm. 27And the men marveled, saying, "What sort of man is this, that even winds and sea obey him?"

What do you worship? Everyone has something or someone they worship, and that thing or person controls their life. By worshiping and adoring God Our Father we are set free from slavery and bondage, and recognize that HE is enough. QUESTIONS FOR THE ROAD: 1. What in your life is most important to you? What steps do you need to take to ensure you are elevating God above these “things”? 2. Who is God to you, and what is your response to this revelation as you ‘hallow' His name in your prayers? 3. Give God your glory: What blessings, achievements, material things or anything else of value do you possess that you need to “Ascribe to the Lord”? Take time to write them out, and pray a prayer of thanksgiving. PRAY LIKE THIS SERIES: Many feel paralyzed when it comes to prayer. We overthink it, don't feel adequate, or guilty for not doing it enough. But Jesus teaches a simple, yet profound way to go deep with our prayers. Join us for our summer series, 'Pray Like This', as we dive deep into the prayer our Lord Jesus taught his disciples to pray. We'll take each clause of the Lord's Prayer and connect with other passages in Scripture that explain the deep principles embedded within. This prayer is the perfect place to begin and to deepen all our prayer lives.

Do you truly know God as your Father? There is only way to Him, and it is through His Son. And this is Good News for you today.—King's Cross Church is a member congregation of the CREC in Moscow, ID.

J. I. Packer once wrote that if you want to judge how well a person understands Christianity, find out how much he makes of the thought of being God's child, and having God as his Father. For Packer, the fatherhood of God and adoption in Christ are the sum of New Testament religion. Christians are people who have God as their Father. By nature, this is not so. In Paul's letter to the Ephesians, he explains that we were once dead in our trespasses and sins and were by nature children of wrath like the rest of mankind. But God, being rich in mercy, made us alive by uniting us to Christ in His death and resurrection and adopting us in His Son. You have been adopted in Christ, and so you too hear “This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased” in the waters of baptism. You have been adopted in Christ, and so you too pray to God saying, “Our Father who art in heaven…” You have been adopted in Christ, and so you too can cry out “Abba! Father!” as a son and heir through God. And the privileges go on and on… You have been adopted into the family of God, and you have been made one with the Father in His Son, bound together by the Spirit's love. God as your Father ought to be at the forefront of all your prayer, worship, and work. It ought to be the predominant image in your mind when you hear the word “God.” To miss this is to miss the heart of the gospel. As the Apostle John exclaimed, “See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God, and so we are” (1 Jn. 3:1). So do you truly know God as your Father? There is only way to Him, and it is through His Son. And this is Good News for you today.

1 John 3:1, “See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are. The reason why the world does not know us is that it did not know him.”

Today as we celebrate fathers day we continue our Series “Psalms~A Playlist for Life”, with Pastor Ira talking about Restoring Relationships and Psalm 68, tying into how God - Our Father - is trying to restore relationship with us.

In this sermon, guest speaker Jacob van Sickle, a church planter in Providence, helps us to think about God Himself: who He is, the kinds of things he likes, the sorts of things He does, and how we can know Him. Jacob walks us through 2 Timothy 3:18 to show how God reveals himself to us through His Word and uses the scriptures to teach and equip us every day of our lives.

Preacher: Kathy Maskell Scripture: John 5:17-20 “My Father is always at his work to this very day, and I too am working....Very truly I tell you, the Son can do nothing by himself; he can do only what he sees his Father doing, because whatever the Father does the Son also does. For the Father loves the Son and shows him all he does. Yes, and he will show him even greater works than these, so that you will be amazed.” Psalm 103:13 As a father shows compassion to his children, so the Lord shows compassion to those who fear him.

As we approach the celebration of the resurrection, I thought it only befitting that I collaborate all the promises of Jesus Christ as outlined in New Testament scripture.  Collectively we declare them as the last will and testament of Jesus The Christ.  If any of you have ever been included in someone's will, it is a honor, as it is evidence that the person loved you enough to look after you beyond their death and Jesus although He knew there was no grave that could hold him still included us in His last will and testament and when He rose, our inheritance remained in tact.On this day I read to you The Last Will and testament of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.I, Jesus Christ of Nazareth, King of Kings, the Lord of Lords, the Son of God make this my last will and testament. I give to you an inheritance that will last forever. It has been reserved for you from my Father, the Almighty God, the Creator of the universe.I give you access to the Holy Spirit, who will comfort, guide and direct your path if you only receive it.I give you access to every spiritual blessing in heavenly places, I give you access to the free gift of salvation through faith, I give you access to the forgiveness of all your sins, I give you access to the peace that passes all understanding.I give you access to joy unspeakable and full of glory. I crown you with access to loving kindness and mercy. I give you access to blessings that will exceed anything you could ask or think. I give you access to wisdom I give clothe you in strength and honorI give you  unlimited access to the greatest gift you'll ever know, my love, a love so deep it caused me to give my life for your sins. In addition to all these blessings, I give you access to a mansion where you can live out eternity. This mansion is a place where you will shed no more tears, where death will be no more, sorrow will not exist, no more pain, no evil, for the throne of God will be there, and the greatest of all, you will see me face to face. I also give you access to a treasure worth more than silver and gold, the Sacred Scriptures which is filled with undeniable wisdom, and unchangeable principles and standards on how to use the riches of your inheritance. All these blessings are yours  for the taking, when you believe that I am the Son of the Living God and receive me as Savior and Lord. I beseech you all to spread the Gospel, share what I accomplished on earth and done in your life  to all. And in all you do be intentional about loving God Our Father, with all your heart, Obey His commands, for with obedience comes wisdom, and with wisdom comes the ability to walk in dominion.Don't mourn by death, for I was born to be the ultimate sacrifice, so you could live abundantly on earth and in eternity.  So celebrate and make me proud.  All my love, Jesus the Christ

In the third day of this week-long series where we've been taking time every day to stir up our affections for God, today we're going to look at all it means for him to be our Father. Out of all of the metaphors used for our relationship with this eternal, transcendent God, the concept of him being a Father today has been most meaningful. May he draw us closer as he reveals what a good Father he is to us. Our Scripture for today comes from 1 John 3:1, and today's worship is Our Father feat. Matt Gilman by Influence Music. -- We are so excited to share our latest worship song, Coming Through, featuring Jeremiah Brinkley! Check it out on the various streaming platforms here or over at our YouTube channel, here! – There are two things you and I need most: secure connection and unconditional love.  It's impossible to live with confidence unless we have the sense of self that comes from secure connection with our heavenly Father. And it's impossible to fully love ourselves and others unless we experience and trust in the unconditional love of the one who gave us life.  We pray our printed devotionals, Closer and Love, help people like you experience the connection and unconditional love available to you in God every morning.   Everything changes when we live from a place of secure connection and unending love.
