Work of Servant

Sermon, ,

Have you wondered what of your work will lasts? Maybe all of us have. And often we should re-evaluate if our priorities are of eternal significance. But even seemingly insignificant work can be significant if it is done as to the Lord (Colossians 3:23). And if the Messiah was tempted to doubt the value of His efforts, He trusted that His reward was with the Lord. And His work would reap results to the ends of the earth. And we get to make that more true every day!

(I also included my “singing” of William Willliams’ “Guide Me, O Thou Great Jehovah” but don’t feel obligated to listen.)

God is Light

Sermon, ,

Excited to have a special speaker this Sunday as Mason preached from 1 John 1.  Using his science background, he teaches us a new perspective with the familiar phrase, “God is Light.”  Are we walking in the light of God’s Word and His Spirit with Christ and with His community of believers?

Loyal in Faith

Sermon, , ,

“The eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth to show Himself strong in behalf of them whose heart is pure toward Him.” (2 Chronicles 16:9).
Jehoshaphat is tested later in his life to see his devotion and dependence upon the God of Israel. The good king’s faith is not in vain. The LORD delivers so that we too will know that the battle is not ours but is the LORD’s. Just trust in Him.

Delight in God’s Ways

Sermon, , ,

Jehoshaphat starts well in following the LORD but he also works to bring his people closer to God with the removal of idolatry and teaching the law of the LORD. But then he makes a dangerous alliance with Ahab of the northern tribes of Israel – a follower of Baal. But when Jehoshaphat is rebuked by the prophet, he seems to repent and pursue God instead of hardening his heart as his father Asa had done. Jehoshaphat delights in the LORD.

Faithful or Forsaking

Sermon, , ,

Faithful or Forsaking

Asa was king of Judah who changed from his father’s pattern to seek the LORD and His help. The LORD was seeking someone to let Him do just that. Are we faithful to let God work through us?
