Key Theme:
A truly wise person is one who acts out of a heart-level obedience to Jesus that flows from fear of God, submission to His lordship, and love generated by a trust in His completed work.

Key Application:
Build your life on Jesus by responding to His words with loving, trusting obedience, abiding in His love and grace.

Key Verses:
Matthew 7:24 “Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock.”

Key Questions:
1. Have I truly submitted to Jesus as Lord, or do I just admire Him as a teacher?

2. Do I obey Jesus out of love or out of fear, guilt, or pressure?

3. What is one area of Jesus’ teaching from the Sermon on the Mount that I’ve heard, but not yet lived out?

Church family, we praise God for how faithfully in so many respects you give. Our church family is undeniably generous, but we still have great needs for supplication. We ask that you give joyfully, faithfully and sacrificially in response to how our great God and Savior has given to us.
