Sermon Reflection, July 31, 2017

7/31/2017

0 Comments

 
      During yesterday's sermon series "The Jehovah Names of God" the subject was Jehovah-Nissi, which is interpreted as "The Lord Our Banner" or "The Lord Our Refuge".  The Lord proved to be to Moses a place of refuge and strength.  This is his promise to us as well.  His covenant name is Jehovah-Nissi.
​      In the time of testing and trial I encourage you to remain faithful to God and to keep your faith.  Continue to serve the Lord.  He is your refuge.   Run to the banner of God, not away!
     God cannot deny his character.  He will protect you, keep you, and bless you.  It's who he is.  He is Jehovah-Nissi.
Amen!
-Pastor Jeff Carico

     Sunday I will continue my sermon series on the Jehovah names of God with a sermon entitled "Jehovah-Nissi, The Lord Our Banner", Exodus 17: 15.  The Lord gave Moses this covenant name to remind us that God fights our battles for us.  We can have faith and trust in the Lord, for the battle is the Lord's!
See you Sunday!

     Yesterday I continued the sermon series "The Jehovah Names of God" with an emphasis on "Jehovah-Jireh, The Lord Our Provider".  This revelation of God's character was given to Abraham in Genesis 22.  We also looked at the Biblical covenant of the tithe in Malachi 3: 6-12.
​       God's name reveals the character of a good father, one who takes care of his children.  A father who will give you a fullness of life and material blessings  that could never have been acquired other than through him. 
      Amen!

     Yesterday I began the sermon series "The Jehovah Names of God" and center upon Jehovah-Rohi  ​"The Lord Our Shepherd".   David gave us a beautiful description on what kind of shepherd the Lord is in Psalm 23.   God is a good shepherd, not a hireling.  He cares about his sheep.  He will take care of us.  We can trust him!
      Amen!

      This Sunday I will begin a sermon series entitled "The Jehovah Names of God".  The Jehovah names of God help reveal the character of God.  As we study the Jehovah names of God, I believe we will gain a better understanding of the character of God, and will increase in our faith!
      See you Sunday!

      This past Sunday we gave honor to our country as we celebrated our Independence Day weekend.  Special music, intercessory prayers, and a dedication of a new flag to fly on our church flagpole, were a part of the day's activities.  1 Timothy 2 instructs us to pray for national leaders so that we may lead "quiet and peaceful" lives.  As you observe the July 4 Holiday, I encourage you to observe the words of Paul, and to pray for our nation and its leaders. 
​      Thank you and happy Independence Day!
