Transforming Love The Secret of Spiritual Transformation Key Themes: Loving relationships provide significance to our lives and it is God’s love that makes these human relationships possible. God loves us by revealing Himself through His Son, through the Scriptures and through other saints. God’s love in us prompts us to yield ourselves to Him and what He reveals. As we (in faith), risk that He loves us and is even now praying for us, our yieldedness brings a deepened relationship with Him and supernatural blessing to our lives. Key Themes: Loving relationships provide significance to our lives and it is God’s love that makes these human relationships possible.

Transforming Love Key Scripture: John 17:26 I have made you known to them, and will continue to make you known in order that the love you have for me may be in them and that I myself may be in them.” (NIV)

Transforming Love Men and women we often deem “successful,” who have numerous possessions and plenty of prestige, have often concluded at the end of their lives: “I’ve climbed the ladder of success only to find, my ladder has been leaning against the wrong wall!” In today’s sermon, we’ll discover that the key to a significant, transformed life is the richness and intimacy of our relationships, not inpossessions.

Transforming Love I. The secret to spiritual transformation is prayer. As Christ prepared to depart, He didn’t leave His disciples with possessions, but with prayer. (John 17:1-3)

Transforming Love II. The secret to spiritual transformation is found in intimacy and unity. A. Christ’s final prayer request for His followers was that they might experience the significance of being loved by His Father as He had been loved. Jesus wanted us to experience the intimacy and unity that He enjoyed in relationship with the Father. B. That intimacy is only possible when we love the Father the way Jesus did, yielding to whatever the Father reveals. (John 17:26)

Transforming Love III. The secret to spiritual transformation is hearing God and yielding to His leading. A. The Father loved the Son by revealing or disclosing all things to Him. Jesus never commands, sends or reveals anything to the Father. B. Jesus loves the Father by yielding to Him. (John 5:20) C. Spiritual transformation is evident when we, in faith, yield to the leading of God in our lives without necessarily knowing all the answers up front.

Transforming Love IV. The secret to spiritual transformation is answered prayer. A. The Father answered Christ’s prayer. We have received His revealing love within us. God often loves us with provision, care and blessings. B. The Father longs to relate to us, to reveal His life and love to us in intimate relationship.

Transforming Love V. The secret to spiritual transformation is found in loving relationship with God and others as He reveals Himself (Matthew 22:37-40). A. God reveals Himself to us through His Son, “the light.” Jesus said of Himself, “I am the light of the world” (John 8: 12). The Son reveals the glory of God. When we focus on the Son of God, the Father will reveal Himself to us. B. God reveals Himself to us through Scripture, “the light.” The psalmist says, “Your word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path” (Psalm 119:105). God uses Scripture to illumine our hearts and share in His love. C. God reveals Himself through fellowship with the saints, “the light.” Jesus said, “You are the light of the world” (Matthew 5:14). Christ’s bride, the church, is a vehicle by which God reveals his glory to us … through interaction with the community, God speaks and shares Himself with us.
