The Promise
When Adam & Eve broke fellowship with their Creator God, He made them a promise: “The wrong that ruined Eden will one day be made right through one of your offspring.” Down through the ages, generation after generation: to Noah, to Abraham, to Moses, and to King David in Jerusalem, the Promise was renewed and reaffirmed until finally, “The Promise (Word) was made flesh and walked among us, full of grace and truth - Jesus!”
Good Father
For Christians, "Don't worry. Be happy!" might seem like a totally irresponsible, pleasure seeking, flippant, childish, and selfish way to abandon our God-given duties and responsibilities, but for one thing: our Heavenly Father loves and cares for us! As followers of Jesus Christ, when we make it our first priority to love and obey our Father in Heaven, He gives peace, joy and all the things we need in life because He loves us, and takes good care of us.
Blessed…Like A Tree
"I'm Blessed." What does that mean? We hear people say it all the time! Does it mean I'm happy? I'm wealthy? I'm trouble free? This same word appears frequently in the Psalms and in the Beatitudes of Jesus. Psalm 1 compares a blessed person to a healthy, fruitful tree. Can trees be happy? wealthy? trouble free? No, but they are solid, firmly rooted and secure.
Gideon’s Army
Gideon is famous to us for his dramatic midnight victory with trumpet blasts and blazing torches over the Midianite army encamped by the Hill of Moreh, What we tend to forget is that God reduced his army from 32,000 to 300 troops so that nobody could ever boast of winning that battle by human strategy or strength. When God calls you into His service, He will ruthlessly remove all the resources you have trusted in until you have nothing left but God himself to rely on, and He gets all the glory in the end.
Under His Wings
Starvation and exposure are two things that can kill you. Food and shelter are necessities of life. Is it any wonder then, that the Psalmist should sing grateful songs of praise to the Lord for his provision and his protection. Let us seek his provision. Let us find rest under his wings.
The Crown and the Cross
The brutal and mocking crown of thorns that Jesus wore to the cross, only magnifies the glory and beauty of that victorious crown of life with which Jesus has been crowned King of Kings and Lord of Lords. We worship the Risen Savior at Easter for what He has done, for who He is, and for the transformation he has wrought in us - to the praise of His glory, Hallelujah!
A Humble King
Hey look, your King is riding on a donkey! What's going on? That doesn't seem very kingly! Happy children waving palms were not going to overthrow an occupying force of Roman soldiers, but in a week's time it would all take place: betrayal, trial, crucifixion and resurrection: Praise to our glorious humble King! Hallelujah, what a Savior!
Reformation Sunday: Grace Alone. Faith Alone.
Imagine a church so corrupt and godless that it resembled an oppressive secular tyranny more than it did the Body of Christ. This is what the Reformers Luther, Calvin, Knox and many others faced 500 years ago when they fought for biblical doctrine and practice in the church of their day. Our church and denomination stand today in the mainstream of that heritage, preaching a gospel of grace by faith in Christ alone. May we never fail to appreciate their sacrifices and hard won battles for light in the midst of darkness.
Fight the Good Fight
Fight the good fight, not wasting bullets on other people, other causes, other other distractions, but engaging the enemy of our soul on the battleground of our our hearts and minds. Victory is ours in Christ, wielding the weapons of prayer, forgiveness, repentance, love, joy, and all the other means of grace at our disposal in Him.
