The power and authority that Jesus has as King that He can redeem us and forgive us from sin and death is absolutely amazing. But to be translated into the Kingdom of Christ at the moment we believe the gospel is even more amazing. After all, Jesus Christ is the King of kings, and He is Lord of lords. Jesus is proclaimed to be a King, He claimed to have a kingdom, He even came into this world to proclaim the truth that He is a king (John 18:36-37). After …

Love God, Then Love People
(Matthew 22:37-38)…..Jesus said to him, “`You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ 38 “This is the first and great commandment.
The most important command is to love God with all your being. As with all His commands, God does not give this for His benefit, but for your benefit. Loving people, while important, is only secondary according to Jesus. In practice, because God loves people, loving Him will result in you loving people also. When you get your …
God’s Word
For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, end of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.” (Hebrews 4:12)
For intercourse with God, His word and prayer or both indispensable; and in the inner chamber they should not be separated. In His word, God, speaks to me: in prayer, I speak to God. The Word teaches me to know the God to whom I pray: it teaches …
God Is Beyond Dependable
With His Word God gave us a firm foundation to base our life on. His word, something God Himself will never change, so we can be certain about God’s will. If we want to know God’s will, we only need to see what He said in His Word, the Bible. This morning let us who bear the name Christian praise His name for His unfailing love and faithfulness; for His promises are backed by all the honor of His name, the name above every other name, the name that belongs to …
Our God Of Wonders
(Psalm 77:10-20)…..And I said, “This is my anguish; But I will remember the years of the right hand of the Most High.” 11 I will remember the works of the Lord; Surely I will remember Your wonders of old. 12 I will also meditate on all Your work, and talk of Your deeds. 13 Your way, O God, is in the sanctuary; Who is so great a God as our God? 14 You are the God who does wonders; You have declared Your strength among the peoples. 15 You have with …

One Thing God Hates
(Psalm 5:4-12)…..For You are not a God who takes pleasure in wickedness, Nor shall evil dwell with You. The boastful shall not stand in Your sight; You hate all workers of iniquity. You shall destroy those who speak falsehood; The Lord abhors the bloodthirsty and deceitful man. But as for me, I will come into Your house in the multitude of Your mercy; In fear of You I will worship toward Your holy temple. Lead me, O Lord, in Your righteousness because of my enemies; Make Your way straight before my …
I Have Trusted In Your Mercy
(13:5-6)….But I have trusted in Your mercy; My heart shall rejoice in Your salvation. 6 I will sing to the LORD, because He has dealt bountifully with me. David understood that no matter what was going on around him with his enemies, he had his trust in God (Psalm 25:1-2) (Psalm 34:8-10) (Psalm 34:22). What was the result of David’s trust in God? David trusted in God’s mercy, our God is a very merciful God. Before one can see how great mercy is, some questions must be asked.

Come, Let Us Worship
(Psalm 95:6-7)…..“Oh come, let us worship and bow down; Let us kneel before the LORD our Maker: For he is our God, and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of His hand.” We find in this verse the correct object of our worship (the LORD). We find in this verse the correct attitude of worship (bowing ourselves before God). We find in these verses the foundation for the correct action in worship (hearing His voice). Webster defines “worship” as “courtesy or reverence …
