Summary:
This sermon on being loved by God is addressed to little children (new believers), old men (older believers) and young men (youths), each with a different message.
Little children: Be thankful to our Father and realise how great His love for us is
Old men: Reminisce on the love of God through our lives and look forward to meeting Him! We still have skills; try to help the young people where we can.
Young men: Believe in the strength of the compelling love of God. This helps us to be strong, and makes the church strong. This enables us to help young people outside who are sad.
We hear many teachings of our worthlessness, and it’s true because we’re sinful! But we are like diamonds in the rough; gold in the ground - how ugly they look! But those who know their value will know that they are precious. God loves us and sees us as precious. It’s time for us to consider ourselves precious and feel beloved. Take some time everyday to ponder this statement: I am loved by God.

Summary: Have you ever experienced the loss of something precious to you? How did you feel? And when you are able to find that which is dear to you, how great a joy and relief you must have felt. Our heavenly Father and Creator, since time immemorial, has been seeking after His children. Will you be found by Him to complete His joy?

Summary: In the Holy Bible, there are quite a number of prayers that we can model our prayer after. Praying is something that we think is very easy, but it is actually something that we have to learn for a lifetime. There are prayers in the Bible that we can model our prayers after. The Lord’s prayer is one of them, and it begins with “Our Father in Heaven”. The intimacy between Jesus and the Father can be seen in His prayer. And it is such a blessing that He taught us to pray by first addressing God as our Father.
God is our Father and we belong to Him because He bought us! In NT, we can appreciate this more because we have been bought with the blood of Jesus! This indeed is a privileged status. We are priceless - our lives are priceless. Always remember it is a privilege to call God our Father, it is a privilege to be His children!

Summary: The Bible records many reunions and they are deeply moving. A lot of them require parties forgiving each other. We look at 2 examples of reunions in the Bible to learn from them.

1. Reunion of the prodigal son and his father
   • Recognise our unworthiness
   • Be content that we have Christ, Christ is sufficient for us
2. Reunion of Israel and Judah during during Hezekiah’s reign
   • Preach to our unbelieving family members and reach out to those who haven’t come to church in a while

Summary: 7th Rebuke - We ought to pay tithes 8th Rebuke - We ought to diligently seek God, as we know that God sees and remembers our efforts
