“Fear Not”

Matthew 1.18-25 – The story of Christ’s birth gives us an opportunity to discover an important truth from the life of Joseph.  Whatever all his feelings were related to the news of Mary’s pregnancy, fear must have been one of them for it was the angel who came to encourage him and tell him not to be afraid.  Immanuel gives us hope to face any and all circumstances so that we don’t have anything to fear.  This Christmas season, is your hope in the eternal Son of God who came to live among us that He might die for us or are you still afriad?  Trust Him today to be your Savior.

What the Wise Realize About Jesus

Proverbs 2.1-6 This message concludes our study in the book of Proverbs.  Throughout we have been considering ancient wisdom that is beneficial for modern times.  We end our study noting that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.  With that said and heading into the Christmas season, we conclude our series with understanding what the wise realize about Jesus.  They realize He saves.  They realize He sanctifies.  They realize He glorifies.

A Thankful Heart

Proverbs 17.22 Scripture is filled with admonition to give thanks to the Lord.  Our Proverb suggests that being thankful is like medicine, bringing healing to the body, mind and spirit.  One of the sins against God is an unthankful heart.  Our thanksgiving should engage our whole being.  In addition, Psalm 100 shows us that thanksgiving should be vocal, volitional, voluntary, venerable, and with variety.  What are you thankful for today?

God’s Side or the Other Side

audio/mp3 – God’s Side or the Other Side.  Just the title alone is a compelling question to consider.  The story taken from Luke 10 asks us to consider of the three travelers that day, who was on God’s side and who was on the other side.  We are then left with a choice ourselves.  Which side of the road do we travel?
