Breaking Verses Down

In this episode we learn a valuable lesson. If you are sleepy don't hang out close to windows. One of the Apostle Paul's listeners learned that the hard way in this week's episode. Paul, a marathon sermon and a sleepy man all led to what appeared to be disaster. But with God a mess can turn into a message.

7 On the first day of the week we came together to break bread. Paul spoke to the people and, because he intended to leave the next day, kept on talking until midnight. 8 There were many lamps in the upstairs room where we were meeting. 9 Seated in a window was a young man named Eutychus, who was sinking into a deep sleep as Paul talked on and on. When he was sound asleep, he fell to the ground from the third story and was picked up dead. 10 Paul went down, threw himself on the young man and put his arms around him. “Don’t be alarmed,” he said. “He’s alive!” 11 Then he went upstairs again and broke bread and ate. After talking until daylight, he left. 12 The people took the young man home alive and were greatly comforted.

If you are into a dark and morbid read, Psalm 88 is the one for you. Heman the Ezrahite shares some of the deepest and darkest thoughts in his mind in this Psalm. And yet, as he grieves you can see the faith that he still had in a God that doesn't seem to be responding to him. This is a faith building episode and we hope the break down of it blesses you. 

A song. A psalm of the Sons of Korah. For the director of music. According to mahalath leannoth.[b] A maskil[c] of Heman the Ezrahite.

1 Lord, you are the God who saves me;
    day and night I cry out to you.

2 May my prayer come before you;
    turn your ear to my cry.

3 I am overwhelmed with troubles
    and my life draws near to death.

4 I am counted among those who go down to the pit;
    I am like one without strength.

5 I am set apart with the dead,
    like the slain who lie in the grave,
whom you remember no more,
    who are cut off from your care.

6 You have put me in the lowest pit,
    in the darkest depths.

7 Your wrath lies heavily on me;
    you have overwhelmed me with all your waves.[d]

8 You have taken from me my closest friends
    and have made me repulsive to them.
I am confined and cannot escape;

9     my eyes are dim with grief.

I call to you, Lord, every day;
    I spread out my hands to you.

10 Do you show your wonders to the dead?
    Do their spirits rise up and praise you?

11 Is your love declared in the grave,
    your faithfulness in Destruction[e]?

12 Are your wonders known in the place of darkness,
    or your righteous deeds in the land of oblivion?

13 But I cry to you for help, Lord;
    in the morning my prayer comes before you.

14 Why, Lord, do you reject me
    and hide your face from me?

15 From my youth I have suffered and been close to death;
    I have borne your terrors and am in despair.

16 Your wrath has swept over me;
    your terrors have destroyed me.

17 All day long they surround me like a flood;
    they have completely engulfed me.

18 You have taken from me friend and neighbor—
    darkness is my closest friend.

Here is a recipe for basing your life. Paul has laid it all out for you. We give it even more clarity in this episode. God bless.

8 Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. 9 Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.

On this episode we talk about Paul's words to the Church of Corinth about his flaws and how they are good. It seems strange to some people that trials and tribulations could be a good thing. But Paul understands in his maturity in Christ that these afflictions are what bring us closer to God. We break that down and a lot more in this episode. 

therefore, in order to keep me from becoming conceited, I was given a thorn in my flesh, a messenger of Satan, to torment me. 8 Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me. 9 But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. 10 That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, Tin insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.

This is a highly motivational episode. Here we learn why Paul said for us to remember his chains. Wouldn't Paul's chains be something he'd want people to forget. Quite the opposite is true. He wants people to remember the chains that bound him but couldn't take away his blessings. We delve into this topic and much more on this episode.

On this episode Jason is podcasting live from the Tyee Spit Park in Campbell River BC Canada. This is where a display demonstrating the mass loss of lives to drug overdose in Canada is. Jason Speaks of this tragedy and Preaches on 1 Peter 5: 8-9 which helps explain how just a loss of life could happen. It is a sobering reminder of how important Jesus is in our lives. This is a must listen episode. 

8 Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. 9 Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that the family of believers throughout the world is undergoing the same kind of sufferings.

Canada (my country) will be voting for a new Prime Minister on April 28th, 2025. As we prepare for this election I have had a word put on my heart from the Holy Spirit. I truly believe God wants to remind us that he is in control and that we demonstrate Godly integrity as the campaign rolls along. You may be surprised what Godly integrity looks like. In this episode we break that down and remind you of ultimately who is in charge in Canada and the rest of the nations on earth.

On this episode Pastor Jason goes freestyle, tosses the notes aside and lets the Holy Spirit lead him word for word. We look at Jesus speaking to his disciples how one can lose his life and how they can save it. Jason also gives some very timely advice for living in the present age. May you be blessed as you listen

If you grasp and cling to life on your terms, you’ll lose it, but if you let that life go, you’ll get life on God’s terms.
