Faithful to the Promise

Sermon, ,

The LORD is faithful to His promises and He used a faithful young woman, Jehoshebeath, to secretly preserve the life of an infant descendant of King David. She raised him within the refuge of the temple of the LORD and its precincts until he was seven years old. Then the faithful high priest, Jehoiada, to orchestrate a reversal and justice to restore the throne of Jerusalem to God’s appointed family of David. And thus began a remarkable revival of true worship of the true God of Israel, at least as long as Jehoiada was alive to lead it.

Know your Shepherd

Sermon, Testimony, , ,

For a few minutes, we look at what is hopefully a very familiar passage of Scripture – Psalm 23.  The hope is that each of us growing increasingly familiar with not only Psalm 23 but also with the LORD, the Shepherd of Psalm 23.  Then when the trying times comes, we already have depth with the One who cares for our souls.

Imputed Righteousness

Sermon, , , ,

Abraham believed God and it was accounted to him for righteousness. Lots of ways to translate that one word – imputed, reckoned, counted, credited, and accounted. But we don’t have righteousness without Christ, but by grace through faith in Jesus we can be credited His righteousness. And that makes all the difference.

Son of David, Have Mercy

Sermon, , , , ,

David is pretty heroic in Sunday School stories, pretty cringe-worthy at other points in his life. Yet God made a BIG promise to David that people are still talking about it in eternity. God would establish a “house” for David so that the Son of David would establish a “house” for God and be established in God’s kingdom forever. With all the talk about “seed” and “forever” it makes you wonder how anyone got confused about this covenant ever being about a temple in Jerusalem. It is so much bigger than that.

God Thinks About You

Sermon, , , ,

If our thoughts that we think shape our life, what kind of thoughts are you thinking? Have you thought about your thoughts? Do you think someone else is thinking of you? God is thinking of you. And David began thinking about what God thinks of him and the product of that thinking is Psalm 139. Let’s think about what God thinks of you.

Repent to Worship

Sermon, , , ,

This little psalm flows out of a spiritual disaster for David and all Israel. But you need not to have murdered someone to utilize and value this gem of a prayer to the LORD. This psalm guides us in how to confess our sin and ask for restoration from God toward worship of His greatness.
For background, read 2 Samuel 11-12. And for follow-up, read Psalm 32.

The Righteousness of God

Sermon, ,

The poetry of the Psalms can be hard for non-Hebrew readers to understand at times. But the middle section of Psalm 36 crosses the language barrier, even if not all the words do. The covenant love and righteousness of the LORD is extolled in superlatives to remind us why we should trust our lives and joys to His capable hands even when we don’t understand His decisions.

The Compassionate Shepherd

Sermon, , ,

We probably don’t know much about shepherds like folks did in David’s day. But someone who cares for helpless animals by protecting, nurturing, and tending their needs is what David is telling us and more. Let’s see how the illustration of a shepherd with sheep is helpful for us to learn about how God cares for us through Christ Jesus, our Lord.

Bow to the King

Sermon, , ,

Which king reigns?
What we see is not all that is going on. There is more at work. But what is revealed from the council room of heaven is even more important. The conversation between Father and Son determines the outcome of the question, which King reigns? We must choose how to respond to this important intel. Believe what we see or believe what is revealed.

Messiah in Psalms

Sermon, , , , , , , ,

David was a prophet in that the Spirit revealed things about David’s superlative descendant as David wrote his poetry for the Psalter.  The psalms are rich in messages about the Messiah.  Psalm 110 stands above many in the mysteries it reveals about the coming King and Priest and Judge.  We spend a few minutes unpacking the treasurers of Jesus placed within Psalm 110.
