Does the Lord Ask Too Much? 1 Kings 12:26-28

1 Kings 12:26-28 And Jeroboam said in his heart, "Now the kingdom may return to the house of David: {27} "If these people go up to offer sacrifices in the house of the LORD at Jerusalem, then the heart of this people will turn back to their lord, Rehoboam king of Judah, and they will kill me and go back to Rehoboam king of Judah." {28} Therefore the king asked advice, made two calves of gold, and said to the people, "It is too much for you to go up to Jerusalem. Here are your gods, O Israel, which brought you up from the land of Egypt!"

Does the Lord Ask Too Much? Jeroboam used that as a ploy! Do we use the same excuse today? Is it too much to serve the Lord in the way he prescribed?

Does the Lord Ask Too Much? To Walk by Faith? (2 Cor. 5:6-8; Rom. 10:17)

2 Corinthians 5:6-8 So we are always confident, knowing that while we are at home in the body we are absent from the Lord. 7 For we walk by faith, not by sight. 8 We are confident, yes, well pleased rather to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord

Romans 10:17 So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

Does the Lord Ask Too Much? To Walk by Faith? (2 Cor. 5:6-8; Rom. 10:17) To Obey His Gospel? (2 Th. 1:7-9; Mk. 16:16)

2 Thessalonians 1:7-9 And to give you who are troubled rest with us when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with His mighty angels, {8} in flaming fire taking vengeance on those who do not know God, and on those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. {9} These shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of His power.

Mark 16:16 He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned.

Does the Lord Ask Too Much? To Walk by Faith? (2 Cor. 5:6-8; Rom. 10:17) To Obey His Gospel? (2 Th. 1:7-9; Mk. 16:16) To Be Members of One Church? (1 Cor. 12:13, 20; Eph. 4:4)

1 Corinthians 12:13, 20 (13), For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body; whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free; and have all been made to drink into one Spirit. (20), But now indeed there are many members, yet one body.

Ephesians 4:4 There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called in one hope of your calling.

Does the Lord Ask Too Much? To Walk by Faith? (2 Cor. 5:6-8; Rom. 10:17) To Obey His Gospel? (2 Th. 1:7-9; Mk. 16:16) To Be Members of One Church? (1 Cor. 12:13, 20; Eph. 4:4) To Faithfully Worship Him? (John 4:23-24)

John 4:23-24 But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him. {24} "God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth."

Does the Lord Ask Too Much? To Walk by Faith? (2 Cor. 5:6-8; Rom. 10:17) To Obey His Gospel? (2 Th. 1:7-9; Mk. 16:16) To Be Members of One Church? (1 Cor. 12:13, 20; Eph. 4:4) To Faithfully Worship Him? (John 4:23-24) To Live Godly Lives? (Titus 2:11-12; Phi. 2:14- 16)

Titus 2:11-12 For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men, {12} teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly in the present age.

Philippians 2:14-16 Do all things without complaining and disputing, {15} that you may become blameless and harmless, children of God without fault in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world, {16} holding fast the word of life, so that I may rejoice in the day of Christ that I have not run in vain or labored in vain.

Does the Lord Ask Too Much? To Walk by Faith? (2 Cor. 5:6-8; Rom. 10:17) To Obey His Gospel? (2 Th. 1:7-9; Mk. 16:16) To Be Members of One Church? (1 Cor. 12:13, 20; Eph. 4:4) To Faithfully Worship Him? (John 4:23-24) To Live Godly Lives? (Titus 2:11-12; Phi. 2:14- 16) To Be Faithful Unto Death? (Rev. 2:10; 1 Tim. 4:7-8)

Revelation 2:10 Do not fear any of those things which you are about to suffer. Indeed, the devil is about to throw some of you into prison, that you may be tested, and you will have tribulation ten days. Be faithful until death, and I will give you the crown of life.

1 Timothy 4:7-8 But reject profane and old wives' fables, and exercise yourself toward godliness. {8} For bodily exercise profits a little, but godliness is profitable for all things, having promise of the life that now is and of that which is to come.

Conclusion 1.The wicked King Jeroboam said it was too much to serve God the way he said to do it 2.It is too much for you to do the will of the Father? “He who has My commandments and keeps them, it is he who loves Me. And he who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and manifest Myself to him.” “He who has My commandments and keeps them, it is he who loves Me. And he who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and manifest Myself to him.” (John 14:21)
