This past Sunday, Pastor Andriel challenged us to live in eternity, which for Christ-followers means in the present.  While we tend to focus on our aches, wants, and needs in this temporary body in which we live, our focus should be on being ready for Christ’s return.  We should be living in eternity in our…

In last Sunday’s sermon, I explored the profound reality of God as the Holy One—a theme that echoes from the Old Testament to the New Testament. God repeatedly calls His people to holiness, reflecting His own nature. This call is not just an expectation but should define the lives of those who follow Him. God, the…

“Alpha & Omega” was the focus of the ongoing series Above Every Name. Pastor Mark taught using the books of Genesis, John, and Revelation. He took us from the first line of Genesis to the last page of Revelation, A to Z, start to finish, explaining how God and Jesus are simultaneously the past, present,…

Psalm 7:1-2 (ESV) O Lord my God, in you do I take refuge; save me from all my pursuers and deliver me, lest like a lion they tear my soul apart, rending it in pieces, with none to deliver.   Psalm 7:17 (ESV): I will give to the Lord the thanks due to his righteousness, and…

He spoke of the characteristics of our goodshepherd by laying out the context of how biblical shepherds operated almost 3,000 years agoduring King David’s time.The seven attributes of responsible shepherding were marking…

“Rapha” is the Hebrew word that means “to heal”.  “Jehovah Rapha” is a name for God that appears in Exodus 15:26.  The Psalmist (presumably David) in Psalm 103:2-3 tells us “Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits, who forgives all your iniquity, who heals your diseases…”  The God that heals…

As we continue the series Name Above Every Name, we examine the name El Shaddai, God’s Old Testament name, which reminds us that Jesus Christ, as God, is the Sovereign Lord of all.  Biblically, and for our comprehension, it starts with Abram but El Shaddai is eternal, as only God is. Genesis 17 (NKJV) 1 When…
