SERMON BY: Dr. John Waterloo
SERMON TITLE: How to Restore a Relationship
SERMON THEME: Marriage and Family
SERMON SERIES: Honoring God in the Family
SERMON VERSES: Hosea 3:1-5
To restore a marriage…
1. It takes love-love is a commitment, a choice, not a feeling (1Corinthians 13)
2. It takes sacrifice-so often we just don’t want to pay the cost of humility
3. It takes Biblical boundaries-it is necessary to repent!
4. It takes time-it’s worth the commitment
5. It takes repentance-coming back is non-negotiable! The one in sin must repent!
6. It takes forgiveness! Can the injured party forgive?
Hosea 3:1 Then said the LORD unto me, Go yet, love a woman beloved of her friend, yet an adulteress, according to the love of the LORD toward the children of Israel, who look to other gods, and love flagons of wine. 2 So I bought her to me for fifteen pieces of silver, and for an homer of barley, and an half homer of barley: 3 And I said unto her, Thou shalt abide for me many days; thou shalt not play the harlot, and thou shalt not be for another man: so will I also be for thee. 4 For the children of Israel shall abide many days without a king, and without a prince, and without a sacrifice, and without an image, and without an ephod, and without teraphim: 5 Afterward shall the children of Israel return, and seek the LORD their God, and David their king; and shall fear the LORD and his goodness in the latter days.
