Pastor Greg Laurie continues covering The Beatitudes, where we see what the actions of happy people look like. 

Notes:

Matthew 5

The Sermon on the Mount is only for Christians

Happy are the humble

Happy people are "unhappy" people

A happy person will be a meek person

A happy person passionately desires a righteous life

Read Matthew 5:7

Point #1: Happy people are merciful people

Extend God's mercy toward you to others; forgiven people should be forgiving people

Read Matthew 5:8

Point #2: A happy person will be a holy person

Pure in heart = whole being is directed toward God. To be single (single eye), or pure in heart, means to have a single focus on Jesus Christ.

Read Matthew 5:9

Point #3: A happy person will be a peacemaker

If you're a Christian, you're a son or daughter of God

Read: Matthew 5:10

Point #4: A happy person will be persecuted 

If you want to be a happy person, you're going to be a persecuted person

If persecuted, rejoice (Matthew 5:12)

Let persecution be for righteousness sake

God can work through persecution

It's not easy to be a Christian. It takes courage. But Jesus Christ is worth not only living for, but dying for. It's worth it!

A relationship with God will bring you happiness.

How to Be Happy, Part 2 | Sunday Message

In today’s message, Pastor Greg Laurie shares that spiritual success or failure depends on how much of God’s Word you get into your life on a regular basis, and how obedient you are to it. Get insight now from Psalm 19. 

Notes

Don’t build your life on fickle emotions; build your life on Christ and God’s Word.

As we read, study, memorize, and obey Scripture, it refreshes us. 

The word convert means, “to revive, restore, and transform.”

Success or failure in the Christian life depends on how much of God’s Word you get into your life on a regular basis, and how obedient you are to it.

A growing believer will delight in and love the Word of God. 

Hungry Christians are healthy Christians. 

The Word of God is perfect.

“His mercies are new every morning.” —Lamentations 3:23

How do you know the Bible is the Word of God?

All the authors of the Bible write about one theme: God’s redemption of mankind.

The Bible is true because it gives the experience it claims it will give you.

The Bible is true because it is confirmed by science.

It was the Bible that first said that the number of stars were innumerable. 

The objective of the Bible is not to tell us how the heavens go, but how to go to Heaven and how to know God.

The Bible is true because it is the one book that dares to predict the future.

The Word of God transforms us. 

It’s not enough to read and study God’s Word; we must do it!

The Bible is God’s Word to us, and it should be treasured.

The Word of God gives us incredible wisdom. 

The word simple comes from a root word that speaks of an open door.

What if you don’t agree with what the Bible says?

Answer: Change your opinion because you are wrong, and the Bible is right.

The Word of God is right.

Keeping the Word of God makes you happy. 

“Happy are those that hear the Word of God and keep it.” —Luke 11:28

You can have a happy life without sin. 

The Bible tells us how to get to Heaven.

The Refreshing Power of the Word of God | Sunday Message

When you think back on your spiritual journey and how it was that you came to Christ, most likely there was at least one human being involved in the process. Aren’t you thankful for that person? Well, we each have the opportunity to be “that person” for someone else. It’s God’s plan for disseminating the Good News. And today on A NEW BEGINNING, as part of his series called Refresh, Pastor Greg Laurie points out how refreshing it is when we follow through with our evangelism privilege and responsibility.

The Refreshing Power of Sharing Your Faith, Part 2 | Following Our Calling

Some seem to believe the realm of evangelism is for “men of the cloth” . . . for pastors, ministers, evangelists. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie says it’s a privilege and responsibility shared by all believers. In recent days, he’s been pointing out the tremendous lessons we can learn from Jonah’s success in Nineveh. It was the most successful evangelistic gathering in history. And there are six practical lessons we can learn from that account. Let’s take some notes.
