 Hi guys, welcome back to the channel. My name is Isaac and today we're going to be talking about three lies that guys believe. Let's get into it. Now the first lie is your worth is defined by your success. You are given worth if you are successful in some way. And the problem is that guys have a wrong perception or the world feeds them a wrong perception of what true success is. See a worldly definition of success means money, influence, power, some kind of domination in achievements or accolades. That's not the biblical definition of success and it doesn't give people worth. That's not what gives people worth is what they've achieved if they matter isn't defined by what they do. See true biblical success is much less self-focused and much more others focused, loving God and loving others. That is true biblical success in living out God's call on our lives and also our worth is not defined by our success whether we can gain a lot of money or power or influence. That's not where our worth comes from. Our worth comes from God and that is the first truth that can dispel that lie. Now the second lie that guys believe is that marriage doesn't matter. Don't bother getting married. It's not important. It's an old system. Your parents got married but you know what? Times are changing. That's a lie that guys believe and it's a really pervasive and destructive one because so many guys are now just living with their girlfriends and just doing that instead of marriage. What is marriage? Well it's actually an institution created by God. In Genesis you see the union between Adam and Eve in the beginning and there was a union there, a covenant made, that is really a picture of the church and Jesus. Jesus being the bridegroom, the church being the bride and that's actually an example of that is marriage on earth and marriage is important. You know the question of well I think I'm called to signalness versus should I get married is another kind of discussion but if you are in a relationship the ultimate stage of that relationship, that final stage of that culmination of you know becoming friends and dating is marriage and it should be because it's important. It's set up by God. He designed it that way and it should not be something that we push aside also because God says don't have sex out of marriage. That's important. God says this and we need to listen to him and not just disregard it when we hear the lies of the world. That's number two. Now number three is you can't make a difference. Now when we look into the world we see a lot of bad stuff. You can just take a second and watch the news to realize that our world is in trouble. Brokenness is everywhere and it is seen and it is felt and sometimes guys believe that nothing can be done about it because of this they're demotivated to really do anything with their lives. You know I think we see this a lot of men we see this standard of of what it means to be a man and if we don't reach that pinnacle if we can't be that amazing courageous world changer then we might as well just not try. We might as well not do anything. We might just focus on ourselves and what we can benefit but you know what God rewards faithfulness and not only does he reward it but he asks us to be faithful because he was faithful to us. God is setting that example for us. He is ultimately perfectly faithful to us in his character in his love in his goodness and we want to be faithful in our commitment to him and others in our lives and so yes you can change the world but you're only going to change a part of it and that change begins by being faithful in the little things. God has given you a little peace to work at to be responsible for and he wants you to be faithful in that and I think that's a really important lesson that we need to learn that we can be courageous that we can be passionate. We're not necessarily going to be changing the world all at once but God wants us to be faithful in the little things and that's an important part of being a follower and disciple of Jesus.
