Psalm 1:1-6 "Guaranteed to Prosper"

August 25, 2024 • Andy Falleur • Psalm 1, James 2, John 3:16, Romans 6, Deuteronomy 6:6–7

Give

In this exploration of Psalm 1, we delve into the profound contrast between the righteous and the wicked. The psalm paints a vivid picture of the blessed person who delights in God's instruction, meditating on it day and night. This individual is likened to a tree planted by streams of water, prospering in all they do. We're challenged to consider our own spiritual nourishment and the source of our strength. Are we rooted deeply in God's word, drawing sustenance from His living water? The imagery invites us to reflect on our own stability and fruitfulness in times of adversity. As we meditate on this psalm, we're encouraged to cultivate a life of continuous engagement with Scripture, allowing it to shape our thoughts, decisions, and actions.

October 20, 2024 • Andy Falleur • Psalm 57, Romans 13:1–5, 1 Peter 2:13–14, Proverbs 16:7, John 11:25

Pastor Andy explores Psalm 57, written by David while hiding in a cave from King Saul. This powerful message examines how to maintain a godly attitude when facing abuse from authority figures. Key insights include the critical distinction between submission and obedience - you can remain respectfully submissive to authority while not accepting abuse. The sermon offers hope through two main encouragements: God often causes our enemies to defeat themselves, and there will be a future worth singing about, even from life's darkest caves. Using examples from Scripture and modern stories like the film "Unsung Hero," Pastor Andy explains how God uses wilderness seasons to shape our character and prepare us for His purposes. The message concludes with an invitation to salvation through Jesus Christ. #Bible #Psalm57 #ChristianSermon #Faith #Hope #DavidAndSaul
