Psalm 69 and Romans 11 remind us that our God is holy, just, merciful, sovereign, and faithful. And all of these attributes find full expression in Jesus Christ. Psalm 69 reminds us that God sees suffering, injustice, and sin. He is not indifferent to what happens to His people. And remarkably, David’s suffering points us … Continue reading God Is Faithful When We Don’t Understand
Fix Your Eyes on Jesus
“Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set … Continue reading Fix Your Eyes on Jesus
Rejoicing in Worship — Deuteronomy 12
Christian worship is not merely a duty to perform but a joyful response to the grace God has given us in Christ.
Faith That Delights the Father
“Without faith it is impossible to please him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him.” (Hebrews 11:6) There’s a stunning claim tucked into this verse: God is not indifferent to whether you trust Him. Your faith actually pleases Him. The God who … Continue reading Faith That Delights the Father
When God’s Holiness Meets Our Sin
The Psalms are uncomfortably honest about us. We are not basically good people who occasionally make bad choices. Sin runs deeper than that. We are born with hearts bent away from God. We justify ourselves. We minimize our sin. Sometimes we even convince ourselves that God doesn’t see what we’d rather keep hidden. Psalm 14 … Continue reading When God’s Holiness Meets Our Sin
An Inheritance That Never Fades
Your inheritance in Christ is not measured in acres but in grace. Israel looked forward to receiving a land flowing with milk and honey, but every promise of that inheritance ultimately pointed to something greater—Jesus Christ.

Every Stop Has a Shepherd

Every Stage of Your Journey Is Under God’s Care
At first glance, Numbers 33 reads like a travel log—a long list of places where Israel pitched their tents. It’s easy to skim past it. But God told Moses to record every stop for a reason. Each campsite tells the same truth: Whether you are in a place of abundance or barrenness, the Lord is … Continue reading Every Stage of Your Journey Is Under God’s Care
A Shepherd’s Heart, A Savior’s Love
Moses’ response to God’s announcement of his death is one of the most beautiful displays of selfless leadership in Scripture. Rather than mourning the loss of his own dream of entering the Promised Land, he turned his attention to the people God had entrusted to his care. He pleaded, “Let the LORD… appoint a man … Continue reading A Shepherd’s Heart, A Savior’s Love
Our Unfading Inheritance
Israel stood on the edge of the Promised Land, preparing to receive an inheritance that God had faithfully promised generations before. Each tribe would receive its portion by God’s sovereign hand (Numbers 26). Yet even that glorious inheritance pointed to something greater. In Christ, we have received an inheritance that no earthly possession can rival. … Continue reading Our Unfading Inheritance
