Exodus 20:1-7

The third commandment tells us not to take the LORD’s name in vain. That means much more than just watching our language and not using God’s name in our curse words. It means having a heart that has been changed by Christ and growing in the desire to honor the name of Christ in every way possible.

Revelation 19:11-21

When Jesus returns, it won't be like the first time. He’s not coming as a baby in a manger, but as Conquering King. He won't be a lowly servant riding into Jerusalem on a donkey, but He’s coming back on a white horse, as King of kings and Lord of lords...

Revelation 19:1-10

Revelation reveals God's end-time judgment, not only as a warning to unbelievers, but as a wake-up call to Christians for us to live holy, sanctified lives...

The resurrection of Jesus matters – not only as something that happened in the past, but something that affects us every day...

Revelation 17:1-18

When the great prostitute of Rev. 17 is seated on the beast, it looks like the kingdoms and institutions of men she represents were in control of the devil and using his power for their purposes. The truth is, wicked man does not control the devil. The devil controls wicked men.
And yet, God is behind it all...

Revelation 15:1-16:21

One way God sanctifies His people and makes us holy is to remind us of His holiness, of His righteous judgment – the kind of judgment that we have been rescued from in Jesus, yet will be poured out on all who reject Jesus...

Revelation 14:1-20

John sees the final, holy judgment of God on sinful man as a grain harvest and a wine press. The seriousness of God’s judgment reminds us of the power of the cross and the seriousness of our calling...

Revelation 13:1-18

Just as there is a Holy Trinity of Father, Son, Holy Spirit, we are introduced in Rev. 12-13 to a perversion of that – the unholy trinity of the Dragon, the Antichrist, and the False Prophet...

Revelation 11:15-19

“The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ, and he shall reign forever and ever” (Rev. 11:15). That's the kind of promise that changes everything...

The measuring of the temple and the two witness of Revelation 11 are metaphors to remind us of this amazing encouragement: God will keep His people through persecution as we preach His word to a hostile world...

Revelation 10:1-11

God stops John from writing, and instead commands him to eat the scroll, to eat the word of God (Rev. 10). It was sweet to the taste but bitter in his stomach. The Lord's promises are sweet and encouraging to His people, knowing that Jesus is coming soon. But it is bitter to the world, knowing that God’s judgment is at hand...

Revelation 8:1-9:21

God is releasing a great judgment upon the earth in the last days, depicted through angels blowing 7 trumpets. Yet in at all, we see a reminder of God's great mercy and a call to action for His Church.

Revelation 7:1-17

In the middle of great judgment from God, He pauses. In Revelation 7, God stops and "seals" those who are His. It's a beautiful reminder: we are not shielded from tribulation, but for those in Christ, we are forever protected from God's wrath. Jesus took that for us. And we are His, forever...

Matthew 6:16-18, Luke 10:38-42

Our hearts get crowded and cluttered. Sometimes we just need to hit a spiritual reset button to remind us of what is important. Fasting helps do that. By temporarily neglecting physical appetites, there is a refocusing of our spiritual appetites and our desire for the Savior...

Matthew 27:62-28:9

Romans 1:18-32

Love without truth can promote sin. And truth without love can devastate the sinner. This is especially true with responding to the topic of homosexuality. We need to know the truth, and we need to be able to speak the truth in love.

Our text today instructs us to not fear the persecution of men, but hope in Christ who promises to bless you and use your witness for His glory.

Matthew 6:16-18

Exodus 20:14

The transformation from caterpillar to butterfly is a radical change. When Jesus came he fulfilled the OT law covenant. He transformed the 7th commandment, expanding and internalizing it. Whoever even looks with lust commits adultery in their hearts. Jesus calls us to radical obedience. Hell is at stake. But there is hope for the adulterer.

Psalm 119:73-80

When you deal with real hardship, raw optimism and positive thinking don’t help. Smiles and denials won’t change anything. When you’re going through the storm, you need something bigger than you to hold onto. You need some deep roots anchored in truth to withstand the wind and the storm. Through proclamations and prayers, the psalmist continues to celebrate God’s word, and in these verses in Psalm 119, he points to the hope we have in God, rooted in the truth of Scripture.

Psalm 119:65-72

God truly is good. And since He is perfect and never changes, He will be good and do good forever. That’s the heart of Psalm 119:65-72. The psalmist is celebrating the goodness of God and how God expresses that goodness through His word.

Psalm 119:57-64

The psalmist proclaims, “The Lord is my portion” which means God is enough. Not just what God gives, but God Himself. And when we value the Lord above all else and trust in His word, life-changing truths await…

Romans 3:23-24

When you and I look in the mirror, and we ask, “Am I a good person?” the only way that question can be answered truthfully is to ask a second question, “Compared to what?” To define good, according to the Bible, we can’t do it without God, and we can’t measure “good” by comparing ourselves with another person. We have to place our trust in the only One good enough - Jesus Christ.

Psalm 119:49-56

As followers of Christ, you and I are sojourners in this world, on a journey to a better home. But on that journey, we are going to face difficulty. So we need a source of joy that is bigger than our fears. We need to keep a song in our hearts that reminds us of God’s care and God’s love for us. God’s word does that for us. He provides the lyrics for the sojourner’s song.

Psalm 119:41-48

To trust in God is to trust in God's word. When our hearts are anchored there, we will find our words, our ways and our worship will be transformed.

Psalm 119:33-40

Because of His amazing mercy and by His sovereign power, God not only makes dead hearts alive by saving the lost, but He also takes the hearts of His children, those who love Him, but are weak or tired or distracted, and draws us to Him again.

Psalm 119:25-32

In our times of struggle and sorrow God holds us close and provides the strength we need to keep going. Through His word, we are comforted by promises given, promises kept, and the reminder that we serve a covenant-keeping, burden-lifting Savior.

Psalm 119:17-24

As sojourns on this earth, we will be confronted with criticism and insults against us, but because of Christ and His Word, we can remain steadfast and hopeful - we can find rest when we are resisted.

Psalm 119:9-16

So often our spiritual growth can feel more like one step forward and two steps back. How can we break that cycle and be more consistent in our spiritual growth? And what role does God’s word play in that growth? Real change happens when our hearts are submerged in and submitted to the Bible. Our hearts are transformed and we grow in Christ by reading, remembering and delighting in God’s word.

Psalm 119:1-8

Psalm 119 is one big acrostic poem, an "A to Z" of all the reasons we should thank God for His word, delight His Word, and obey His word.

Revelation 22:6-21

Jesus says, “surely” I am coming soon. That means without a doubt. Iron-clad. It’s going to happen. Nothing can stop it. Bank on it and believe it. And how does one respond to a promise like this? “Amen. Come, Lord Jesus!”

Genesis 22:1-5

When we are in the New Jerusalem, we won't need to be reminded to worship God - not only because our sin will be gone, but because we "will see His face" ...

Revelation 21:1-27

Did you know we actually won’t spend eternity in heaven – at least not as it is right now? We will actually spend eternity on earth – also not as it is right now...

Revelation 20:1-15

Are you pre, post or a-millennial? Not sure? There is a more important question that we should ask from Revelation 20. Is your name written in the Lamb's Book of Life?

Exodus 16:1-36

God loves to meet the needs of His people. That first requires for us to be in need, and to look to God to provide. For Israel, God provides bread from heaven. But this was not just about God meeting their physical needs. There was a greater provision in mind. For them, and for us…

Exodus 15:22-27

“I am Yahweh, your healer” (Exodus 15:26). Sadly some twist this into a promise to guarantee physical health and prosperity in this life. That false interpretation misses the point. And frankly, it aims too low…

Exodus 15:1-21

God created song so that when we sing of His goodness, that we would not only remember the facts of what He’s done, but our hearts would also be moved as well with gratitude, with awe and wonder, with joy and peace. Song helps to join the head and the heart in worshiping God…

Exodus 14:1-31

One of the greatest miracles in the Bible, the parting of the Red Sea and God saving the Hebrews. And it many ways, it points to the greatest miracle of all, God saving all His people through Jesus Christ…

Exodus 13:1-22

We should not live in past, but we also must not forget the past. We grow through constant reminders of the awe and wonder of being redeemed, the joy of knowing you belong to God, that His is faithful in all His promises to you in Christ, and that He will never leave you. These truths are worth fighting for…fighting to remember.

Exodus 12:1-32

There are moments in history that change everything. This is one of those moments, not only for the Hebrew people, but a pivotal moment in God’s redemptive plan for all His people…

Exodus 9:8-11:10

Egypt’s false gods are exposed as fairy tales. Mighty pharaoh is powerless. And through it all, God’s people are protected. God does all this so His mighty works to be remembered, celebrated and proclaimed among all future generations…including us.

Exodus 7:14-9:7

Through the ten plagues, God revealed Himself to the Egyptians by exposing the impotence of their false gods. And God has reveals Himself to us by exposing our idols and destroying our functional saviors, and showing us the real Savior.

Exodus 6:28-7:13

If God were sovereign, but not good, He would be a tyrant. If God were good but not sovereign, He would not be God. But because God is both sovereign and good, that’s a God we can trust…

Exodus 6:1-27

To be broken in spirit is not always something to be rescued from. Sometimes being broken is actually a condition God leads us into – to humble us, or prepare us, to remove what is harmful, and fill us afresh with His Spirit.

Exodus 4:29-6:1

In Christ we can find hope in every burden that comes from broken expectations.

Galatians 3:29-4:7

“In the cultural debate of choosing life, Christians should not be known only for what we are against. Not only pointing at the problem, but we should be offering the solution. Not just standing against abortion, but also promoting adoption – starting with our own families, and also helping to support other families who adopt with our prayers and our resources.”

1 Peter 2:1-3

Every Christian knows the struggle to be consistent with our Bible reading. Guilt doesn’t work. New Year’s resolutions don’t work. Here are some ways we can we grow in our desire to be in God’s Word…

Luke 11:1-13

In Luke 11, Jesus answers a request from one his disciples to teach them to pray, so he instructs his disciples on the content of and the confidence we can have in our prayers.

Matthew 6:9-13, John 17:9-23

Those who had a difficult 2018 could be tempted to feel exhausted and a little discouraged facing a new year. But God wants to revive your weary heart so that you can face a new year with new strength and hope, not rooted in your performance or in your circumstances, but in His grace...

Luke 2:1-17

God specializes in the impossible and delights in using the humble to exault His name.
