Idolatry (Glory Session Two)

“When you stand before God, your idols will not be a sufficient mediator” that hit hard.

11:15 that story reminds me of when graduating from undergrad & moving back in with my parents. My mom thought it was an inconvenience & thought that I was giving up, but she didn’t know (until I finally told her) that my mental wellness was so bad that if I would’ve been out on my own, I wouldn’t have been ‘here on this earth’ anymore ♥️👏🏾 Update: A little after that, I was having sxicidal thoughts. A small still voice told me to go & talk to my mom. Another voice told me not to worry her. I chose the ‘small still voice’ that day. My mom (who before didn’t believe in mental wellness & would always brush it off when I displayed signs of depression & anxiety because she wasn’t familiar with it) called 1 of her nurse-friends who was a NP specializing in psychiatry. I was able to talk to her by myself on the phone; she made me feel comfortable enough to make an appointment with her; and convinced me to start antidepressants. My body didn’t take well to the 1st ones, so we tried a small dose of Zoloft, and I’ve been good ever since! Things haven’t been easy, I’m still living with my parents 🙃, & I still have bouts of depression every blue moon, but I thank God for speaking to me, for listening to my cry, & for softening my mom’s heart. I’m in grad school, now, learning ways of taking care of my mental&physical health & still in relationship with Christ

Before hearing this sermon, I was hearing this message. God is removing the veil from my eyes so that I can see!! Thank you God for this message

"your idols are probably that which the culture esteems most". preach it!

Such an interesting connection 25:09...impatience can easily lead to idolatry. Lord, continue to be the desire of my heart and provider of my needs.

My idols can be destroyed and my God is indestructible 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

I love your sense of humor… thank you for always telling the truth. I’ve learned so much. You inspired me to want to find out more about who God is. Especially His holiness. I grew up thinking of His holiness as detached from my human experience, But I’ve come to Know God’s holiness as simply pure intended. I know His holiness is not just confined to purity but I find the most comfort in knowing that He is purely good, He will never think of me with sore eyes, but with pure love, pure understanding, and pure compassion. You always come through with practical wisdom about our human experiences. God is good.

I just appreciate God for using jackie ,she really an instrument God's hand

That lady singing her voice was beautiful 💜💜💜

This is the type of sermon you will always come back to

Sometimes in life, what we think is an inconvenience is actually your deliverance Whew Chile 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

My favorite preacher ❤️. I love the way your preaching is light hearted, but at the same time, convicting.

I pray that people who need this message hear it at the right time. I pray that hearts won't be hardened and I pray for liberation .I pray that God uses this sermon to draw us to Himself. I am sure God is pleased with this sermon. Thank you JHP.

the beginning of this sermon i had a decision to make that would shift the course of my life. not that i knew how exactly, but i know it will make a difference—my obedience. i thank God for Jackie’s obedience, and all others like her and before her. i thank God for the Holy Spirit, because i was able to choose what i know God wanted and was His to have from me, and that was my surrender in the area of my finances. if i say i believe God is my everything, i need to live it out faithfully and leave no stone in my life untouched and unturned. it’s a process but each day He shows me what i’m hiding and why i need to just give it to Him. i’m grateful for this Word. a year later, and it’s on time. 💕

Whew chile "God doesn't need your praise, He deserves it" 👏🏽 👏🏽👏🏽 you better preach!

Jackie got jokes 😂😂😂

Watched the whole thing, I thank you so much for this this is helping me break down what I see as an idol in each area of my life. There are a few but they can’t give me what Jesus has for me, they don’t give me peace, nor hope, nor love, nor strength they make me anxious, worried, sad, lonely , and leave me hopeless. Jesus I pray against my idols in Jesus name, I pray to be around others who see my idols and want to remove them from me in Jesus name amen ❤️

When I tell you.. even 2 years later!! For me this is so relevant! Thank you Jackie!

I'm over here crying at these Beyoncé lyrics before the message even starts Amen

I love that she does INTENTIONAL Prayers .Thank you Jesus 🙌🏽🙏🏾
