The Living Word
The Lifting Up of a Downcast Soul
January 1, 2023 • Pastor Russ Collins • Psalm 43, Psalm 42
Today is the final sermon in a series we are calling The Living Word, based on Hebrews 4:12, in which God’s Word is described as “living and active.” His Word is alive and changes lives. To demonstrate this we asked five pastors and leaders to share a passage the Lord has been using in their lives to convict, comfort and/or challenge them. Our hope is to show the living nature of God’s word today and, in turn, be moved to study it, trust it, and immerse our lives in it. Today, we consider what it means to prepare for the inevitable battle when we are downcast, doubting, and in despair.
