This Sunday the sermon is from Titus 1:5-9 – “Orderly Churches in a Disorderly World”. “This is why I left you in Crete …” – Titus 1:5

Was there any hope for the inhabitants of the island of Crete? A Cretan prophet had said, “Cretans are always liars, evil beasts, lazy gluttons.” Well, there was hope in the Gospel. By God’s grace, sinners had been transformed and a church had been planted on Crete. Now it needed strong leadership. Likewise, we need churches with strong leaders today in America. In many ways, modern American culture rivals the 1st Century Cretans. But God’s grace is greater than the sins of a nation. God will use strong churches with strong leaders to build His Church.

This Sunday the sermon is from Psalm 150 – ” A Concluding Psalm of Praise”.  “Let everything that has breath praise the Lord!” – Psalm 150:6

Psalm 150 concludes the Old Testament Psalter and it concludes this book in a fitting way. The psalmist commands us 13 times in 6 verses to “Praise the Lord!” We are to praise Him in His sanctuary, in His mighty heavens, for His mighty deeds and according to His excellent greatness. We are to employ musical instruments in this joyful endeavor. We will obey these commands when we see who God is and how He has accomplished our salvation in Christ.

This Sunday the sermon is from Psalm 139 – “The Great Searcher of Hearts”. “How precious to me are your thoughts, O God! How vast is the sum of them!” – Psalm 139:17

The Lord knows us thoroughly and intimately. Psalm 139 teaches us this truth. He is omniscient (Vss. 2-6); He is omnipresent (Vss. 7-12); and He is omnipotent (Vss. 13-16). He knows all things; He is present everywhere; and He can do all things. We cannot run from Him and we cannot hide from Him. Doing so is a fool’s errand. If you are running from God, turn toward Him today. Confess your sin and your need for salvation. He forgives any and all who come to Him through Christ His only Son. (John 6:37)
