Practicing The Spiritual Disciplines

Practicing The Spiritual Disciplines

Feb 11, 2024

Passage: Matthew 6:1-18

Preacher: Rob Holster

Series: Gospel of the Kingdom

Summary:

In this message we revisit the Lord's Prayer, our prayer life, and the need to forgive others. We'll also get into the idea of fasting. Jesus talked about it so we're going to cover it, and discover how it should be done––and why it should be done. Then we'll go back over the whole passage––the secret passage, you might say––and discuss the importance of practicing the spiritual disciplines. Matthew 6 began with Jesus saying, "Beware of practicing your righteousness before other people in order to be seen by them..." There's a lot to that statement––namely that Jesus assumes that we are "practicing righteousness." What does that even mean? Practicing righteousness means practicing the spiritual disciplines, which can also mean practicing being a Christ-follower. Being a Christ-follower (a disciple) requires practice and dedication.
