I. The Circumstance: A Desert
II. The Turn: Cries and Deliverance
III. The Redeemed Reality: A Straight Path to the City
IV. Worshipful Response: A Thankful Heart

Questions
1. Have you been in a physical desert before? What was it like?
2. Where in your life are you striving to satisfy your own hunger?
3. As you look back on 2020, in what ways was God faithful?
4. As you look forward to 2021, what are truths that you want to hold onto?

Today, December 27th, 2020, Chris Voorhees delivers his sermon from Psalm 170 entitled "The Blessing 2020"

What gift is appropriate for a coming king?

Sermon Points:
I.The arrival of a king is a source of joy for some, and fear and contempt for others.
II.The identity of Christ often eludes the most learned scholar while it is obvious to the simple seeker.
III.For those who recognize Christ as King and Lord, the only appropriate response is worship.

Questions for further study:
1.How is it that the priests and scribes believed that the Messiah would be born in Bethlehem and yet had no interest in exploring the claim of the birth of a king there?
2.How do you suppose the magi were familiar with the idea that a ‘king of the Jews’ was to be expected?
3.Why should the people of Jerusalem be troubled by the prospect of the birth of a king?
4.Do you see any deeper significance in the magi’s choice of gifts?
5.In the Scriptures, there is a connection between ‘falling down’ and worship. Can you explain this association?
