Crossroads Sermons

We cannot run away or hide from God. Once we give up our desires, dreams, will and let ourselves be found by that wonderful God, we discover that His intention is not to harm us but to bless us. He formed us even in our mother's womb for His purpose and ordained all our days before we saw the light of day.

Whether you are facing some circumstance or problem, in the midst of a storm, or are experiencing His mercies every day, we must learn to have a thankful heart for God, be filled with joy for His goodness and tell others about God.

Sometimes it doesn't seem worth doing the right thing! When the bad prosper and the good suffer, you may be tempted to doubt God, especially if you are trying to do the right thing! If we are not careful to have the right perspective, we may be tempted to stop doing what is right and try to do what is wrong. When the wicked seem to win, let us submit to God, be content in Him and do what is right, trusting that the Lord will judge righteously.

None of us are really safe until we take refuge in God. Need help? Then Psalm 121 is for you, it is a good psalm to remember and keep in mind and heart as we go through life's journey. It is our prayer that this psalm will help us to put our trust in God's providence and care for our lives.

Psalm 40 is a song about those pits of life. Because David waited intensely on the Lord to rescue him and learned how to wait on the Lord to get him out of the pits of his life. So it is a psalm about what to do when you are in the pit of problems, situations and circumstances.

Where do you go when life hits you with a crisis? Where do you turn when things get tough? How do you pray during a crisis? Many people are not prepared to pray in a crisis. Their prayers are filled with fear and panic, very different from the attitude in prayer that David shows us here in this Psalm 27. What we find is a prayer of absolute confidence in the midst of trial, we can learn from David about how to pray and the attitude we should have in the face of a crisis.

There is something called repentance. Repentance is much more than simply acknowledging wrongdoing; it is a change in thinking and heart that brings a new perspective on God, oneself and the world; it involves turning away from sin and turning to God for forgiveness.

In the midst of difficulties, circumstances and you feel that there is no answer to your prayer, do not stop praying, do not stop worshiping, do not stop looking for the only God who always listens, who is always in control of all things, who always has a hope and who always loves you and has something better.

Psalm 45 is a unique psalm. Most versions express this psalm as a love song. Some versions say that Psalm 45 is a wedding song, according to the title. The marriage described in Psalm 45 is a glorious and grand union. It is full of romance, beauty, majesty, but it is a marriage that will never end. It is destined for eternal glory! Psalm 45 shows us a beautiful picture of Christ and His church.
