  Hello. Welcome to the No God Coach
• 0:02
  Huddle for January 30, 2026. Your
• 0:05
  twominut call from God's playbook to
• 0:08
  know him better so we can obey and love
• 0:10
  him more. So, let's huddle up and hear
• 0:12
  today's play from Romans 7. My brothers,
• 0:15
  you've been made dead with regard to the
• 0:18
  law through the Messiah's body, so that
• 0:20
  you may belong to someone else, namely
• 0:23
  the one who has been raised from the
• 0:24
  dead in order for us to bear fruit for
• 0:27
  God, so that we are serving in the new
• 0:29
  way provided by the spirit and not in
• 0:32
  the old way outwardly following the
• 0:34
  letter of the law. Paul tells us, "You
• 0:37
  have died to the law through the body of
• 0:39
  Christ so that you now belong to the one
• 0:42
  who was raised from the dead in order
• 0:44
  that you might bear fruit for God." That
• 0:47
  matters. That phrase matters. Freedom in
• 0:50
  Christ is not freedom from obedience.
• 0:53
  It's freedom for fruitfulness. Here's
• 0:56
  the mistake we make. We measure our
• 0:58
  faith by what we don't do. I don't
• 1:01
  drink. I don't cheat. I don't do what
• 1:03
  those bad guys do. But Paul doesn't say
• 1:06
  you were freed so that you could avoid
• 1:09
  sin. He says you were freed so you could
• 1:12
  bear fruit. Here's the measuring stick.
• 1:15
  Don't measure your life by what you're
• 1:17
  avoiding. Measure your life by what
• 1:20
  you're producing. Paul explains that the
• 1:22
  law couldn't fix us. Not because the law
• 1:25
  was broken, but because we are. The law
• 1:28
  exposed our rebellion, but it couldn't
• 1:30
  change our nature. And that's why Jesus
• 1:33
  came. Jesus obeyed perfectly where we
• 1:36
  failed. Jesus absorbed the penalty we
• 1:39
  deserve. Jesus was raised so we could
• 1:42
  live a new kind of life by the spirit.
• 1:45
  Now we don't obey to earn God's favor.
• 1:48
  We obey because we belong to Christ. And
• 1:51
  obedience fueled by love produces fruit.
• 1:55
  Men, this is where it gets practical. Is
• 1:57
  your life producing a love for God? A
• 1:59
  love for people, generosity,
• 2:02
  forgiveness, courage to speak the
• 2:04
  gospel, patience under pressure,
• 2:07
  endurance when things are hard, or are
• 2:09
  you just managing sin? You can be sin
• 2:12
  managed and fruitless. You can look
• 2:15
  clean on the outside and still produce
• 2:17
  nothing for God. Paul says, "We now
• 2:20
  serve in the new way of the spirit, not
• 2:22
  the old way of rulekeeping." That means
• 2:25
  the spirit isn't just restraining your
• 2:27
  behavior. He's reshaping your desires.
• 2:30
  So, here's today's play. Ask yourself
• 2:33
  honestly, what is my life producing
• 2:36
  right now? Who's closer to Jesus because
• 2:39
  I'm in their life? Where is God bearing
• 2:41
  fruit through me? You are not freed from
• 2:44
  the law to live for yourself. You are
• 2:47
  freed to belong to Jesus and to bear
• 2:49
  fruit for God. So, run today's play. Die
• 2:52
  to your self-reliance. Walk by the
• 2:55
  spirit and measure your faith by what
• 2:57
  your life is producing. That's how godly
• 3:00
  men live fully surrendered. That's how
• 3:02
  God gets the glory. If this huddle helps
• 3:05
  you know God better so you can love and
• 3:07
  obey him more, leave a quick review and
• 3:10
  share with a friend. That's how other
• 3:11
  men find their way into the huddle.
