Keeping Your Vow, Week 2

Here are my notes for Week 2 of our churches series, Keep Your Vow. My original post with Week 1 can be found here!

Week Two - Stay Loyal

Staying loyal means we pursue the One (God) with the two (you and your spouse).

Loyalty is about the priorities of our lives. If you don't pursue God, you won't pursue your spouse.

1. God
2. spouse
3. children
4. work
5. friends, hobbies

Idolatry - putting anything before God. (Exodus 20:1-6)

• Our God is a jealous God. We should not worship created things.
• Disloyalty begins in the heart.
• Ezekiel 14:1-5
• God listens even when your walking/running away from Him.

What happens when...

• you put your spouse first? Your spouse will crumble under the pressure of expectations.
• when God is first but other things come second? You will neglect your spouse.
• when children become first? The pressure may break the kids or after the kids leave the marriage may fail.
• when work comes first? The whole family unit will crumble.
