Sermon 139 "Pleasing the Creator of the Universe"

Think deeply about this: you can bring delight, pleasant feelings, euphoria, happiness, ecstasy -- to the Supreme Being, the God of all creation.

It's almost like saying a little ant could cause you to freak out in joy. It seems almost absurd, doesn't it? But it's true.

Have you ever been delighted by something. A delicious meal, for example? You savored it, you were extremely impressed with the taste, and after you ate it, you couldn't stop thinking about it, and looked forward to having that meal again.

That's how we can make God feel. That's right. I said feel. God has feelings, even though He is Spirit. His Son delighted God and if we trust, obey, and imitate Jesus Christ, we too can make God have a good day today.

Let's look at some scriptures that prove God has feelings, God wants humans to delight Him, and God empowers us to do so.

When your earthly parents or boss was pleased with you, nice things happened, right? Just imagine pleasing God, the Creator of the entire Universe! Wonderful things will be heading your way!
