In Psalm 91 we see that God is our refuge, our rescuer, and our rewarder. No matter what we are going through we must dwell in the secret place, and God will be there.

Safe In The Secret Place (Psalm 91) - SUMMER PSALMS

This Sunday we were honored to have speaker and author, Clifton Taulbert preach on Psalm 133 as part of our Summer Psalms series. He spoke on the importance of dwelling in unity. The unity that we dwell in is not for our purpose alone, but is for the purpose of God, to bring others to Him.

Unity (Psalm 133) - SUMMER PSALMS - Clifton Taulbert

THE ROCK - Summer Psalms

Psalm 109 teaches us that we can be brutally honest about our circumstances and the way those circumstances affect our hearts. It also reminds us that God’s unfailing love is the reason we always have hope of deliverance!

SUMMER PSALMS - Psalm 109

The point of life is to point to Jesus. God uses every moment in our story to tell His story to us and through us!

RUN IT BACK!

What would it look like for you to offer your very best in response to what Jesus has done for you? In John 12, Mary teaches us that the extravagant gifts of God to us provoke extravagant worship from us.

EXTRAVAGANT WORSHIP

CELEBRATORS & HATERS

When Jesus calls us to life, it includes a command to leave our old dead way of life behind us. If we want to remove our grave clothes and move forward, we need to ask others to help us and then let them help!

GET THOSE GRAVE CLOTHES OFF pt.3

We are all products of our environment. Where we live, when we live, and who we live with all impact the way we experience the world. When Jesus brings new life, he reveals everything in our lives that is incompatible with his kingdom. Our job is to let him reveal the grave clothes of culture, time, and place and remove them.

TAKE THOSE GRAVE CLOTHES OFF - Part 2

Paul in Galatians 6 encourages the church to “steady on” in doing good works for their brothers and sisters in Christ and to everyone. Because of the law of sowing and reaping, they would reap the spiritual benefits of bringing glory to God and advancing His kingdom if they don’t quit.

STEADY ON

When Jesus called Lazarus out of the tomb, he also instructed others to help get the grave clothes off of Lazarus so he could enter into his new life. When say yes to Jesus, it still involves a process of leaving many parts of our old way of life behind us. Thankfully, Jesus sends others our way to help us get the grave clothes off and follow him.

GET THOSE GRAVE CLOTHES OFF

In John 11:43-44 Jesus calls Lazarus back to life and then out of the grave. When Jesus speaks life he follows it up with direction that requires obedience. Come out of that grave and start walking the path that Jesus is laying out in front of you!

COME OUT OF THAT GRAVE

Today we picked up the Lazarus story in John 11:41-43 where Jesus prays to the Father for Lazarus’ resurrection. In this passage we see Jesus demonstrating his connection to the Father but we also see that Jesus knows Lazarus. Just like Lazarus, Jesus knows your name, He knows your situation and has a plan for your life. When Jesus speaks your name, he speaks life.

JESUS KNOWS MY NAME

This week we looked at John 11:38-41, the part of the Lazarus story where Jesus tells them to roll back the stone at Lazarus’ grave. Pastor Chris explains that Martha tries to stop him, just like when we try to stop Jesus accessing our unclean places, but Jesus is not afraid. Jesus already knows what is in the grave, in your grave, so roll back the stone and let Jesus work.
