Love Code Conference 2021 - Feb 14th

 Happy Valentine's


Today's sermon was lit. However, 1 thing stood out - 

A relationship can be ordained by God and yet it does not work.

In Acts 13v1-2 Paul and Barnabas were specifically divinely called to be partners in ministry, but we see that in Acts 15v36-39, there was a strong disagreement and they separated, the partnership didn't work out and Paul went on to do stuff with Silas.

Quite profound. A good reminder that God is not one who would enforce His will on you. He has given each and everyone of us the power of choosing, and that includes the choice of a life partner and the choice to make the relationship work.

He would offer you His ideas, suggest His preferences, at the end of the day, the ball is in court as they say  🎾


Another key take away is: Be willing to wait till you have your spec (your kind of life partner). We take an example from the first man - Adam. Though he had Animals around him that could be a companion, he waited for God to give him his life partner. Don't marry an Animal.

Marriage is one of the kind of relationship that goes sour fast. - If you are experiencing issues in your Marraige..nothing is wrong..(it's a part of it. (This explains everything, if there is an issue, it an opportunity to do the Lord's works, and you'll be fulfilling God's purpose) John 15v2 - 4 tells us why. He that abides in Him bears fruit. We treat challenges in marriage as a wall, instead of a bump. (The friction calls for us to slow down and ...

This sermon started with a common thing among our generation:  Jumping into conclusion. Pastor Laju goes on to outline various codes that should guide us during dating. Code 1: Dating is not a hobby . It's not something you do for fun. You can have fun in it (going out e.t.c) but it's not all for fun 4 signs that you are not being serious. 1.

Priotizing scripture over experiences is our priority. Heb 1v1. Baptizo means to immerse in something. Luke 12v50, Mark 10v38. Water baptism. john 1v23-26 Acts 19v4 John baptize with the baptism of repentance..SAYING... (it was a. Message, a symbol of something) Matthew 3v7 Repentance - change of heart.
