Volume One
-
Our God is so big, beyond what we can fully fathom. He spoke and with His word created everything in the universe. If creating everything around us wasn’t enough for us to be in awe, He offers us a hope and a relationship with the triune God through His son Jesus.
Psalm 149:1-2, Psalm 8:3-4
-
God is set apart from us. Ritual and reverent practices and guidelines were given to His people as a constant reminder that God is so good and pure, that we weren’t able to enter the holy of holies. Because of Jesus, our interaction with God changes from separated and unworthy to unified and clothed in righteousness.
Exodus 34:6, 29-30, Psalm 65
-
In times of uncertainty, fear and hopelessness the Lord invites us to call on his name. To declare He is Lord over all, no matter the circumstances we find ourselves facing. In our weakness, He truly is our strength. We are forever welcome to take refuge in Him.
Psalm 91, 2 Corinthians 12:9-11
-
Despite our situations and circumstances, Jesus has already defeated darkness and evil. As believers and followers of Christ, we can claim that victory that Jesus freely gives us and live a life that declares who He is.
Isaiah 45, Psalm 27
-
We are reminded throughout the entire biblical narrative that the Lord has had a plan from the start to provide those far of a hope of a new life. Even in the our rebellion, the Lord provides us a way back to him through the good news of the gospel so we can be given a new life. Praise Jesus for the work done on the cross to give us new life.
Galatians 3:10-14
-
We spend our lives in pursuit of building up our personal kingdoms. Security, comfort, wealth, understanding and yet in our own effort nothing we accomplish truly satiates that pursuit. But our Heavenly Father not only has a kingdom much greater than any earthly kingdom we build, he’s counted those who believe, in Christ, to be heirs to it.
John 18:36, Daniel 2:44
-
Through the promise of Jesus Christ, we have a new hope. A hope found and fully shown through the power of Jesus Christ. We are new creations in Jesus given His spirit that is alive and moving among those who believe.
Romans 8, 1 John 4:13-19, Ephesians 4:22-24
-
One of the ways we recognize how desperately in need of a savior we are is to acknowledge our sin. To come to grips with all the little ways we deceive ourselves into “i’m not really that bad”. The truth is we all rebel against our Lord. On the other side of that acknowledgment is a heart filled with joy in our salvation, a salvation only provided by Jesus Christ.
Psalm 51
