Deliverance on SermonAudio

Psalm 18 is David's song of love and praise to Yahweh, his rock, fortress, and deliverer, who heard his cry from the cords of death, came in thunderous power to rescue him from Saul and all his enemies because He delighted in him, rewarded his covenant faithfulness, equipped him for victory, and showed steadfast love to His anointed and his offspring forever.

Our Lord gives his people a means of remembering our redemption and deliverance.

A wrong step can have serious consequences. In Numbers 21, Israel's sin brought fiery serpents into the camp, but God also provided a way of deliverance. A reminder to watch our walk, recognize the danger of sin, and look to the One who provides salvation. 🔹 Numbers 21:1-10 🔹 September 6, 2026 - Sunday PM Service 🔹 Josh Griffith | Still Water Baptist Church 📍2014 Fariston Road, London, Ky 40744

Bless the King of Kings, and be blessed in Him. 1. He has it all 2. He does it all 3. He is all in all

The sermon emphasizes that faith, rather than resources or ability, is the primary driver for effective missions and Christian service. Using the biblical example of David in Psalm 143 and the historical account of Foon Lim's survival at sea, it illustrates how believers must remain outwardly diligent, inwardly determined, and upwardly dependent on God during times of darkness and trial. The message encourages listeners to maintain spiritual routines and trust in God's provision while waiting for their 'morning' of deliverance or the Lord's return. It concludes with an urgent call to salvation, asserting that only through faith in Jesus Christ can one reach the ultimate hope of heaven.

This devotional explores the concept of "striving to enter God's rest" based on Hebrews 4:1-11. Pastor Jason highlights that while Christians are called to enter this rest, it is possible to "try too hard" in the wrong way, much like a golfer or baseball player whose excessive, misplaced effort leads to failure. The video presents the following key themes and points: The Example of the Exodus Generation: The speaker uses the Exodus generation as a primary warning. Despite witnessing God's powerful deliverance and miracles, they failed to enter God's rest because they did not believe the gospel they heard. Their failure was rooted in a lack of faith, not in a lack of miracles. The Nature of True Rest: True rest is achieved when individuals believe in the promises of God and accept that the work of salvation is already finished by Jesus Christ. To "rest" means to stop trying to earn salvation through one's own works. How to "Strive": The call to "strive to enter" is not a call to work for salvation. Instead, it is a call to: 1. Place faith alone in Christ alone. 2. Embrace and believe what God has accomplished. 3. Obey God out of love and gratitude for the salvation He has already provided, rather than as a means to earn it. The speaker concludes that any attempt to earn rest through good works is an abandonment of faith and a rejection of the gospel.

~~~~~~~ No 30 in the series - The Epistles of Peter. ~~~~~~~ **Considering 2 Peter 2:10 - 19** But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness, and despise government. Presumptuous are they, selfwilled, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities. ......... While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage. *1/ The prominence the Holy Spirit has given in the Word, to warn of the danger of walking after the flesh. 2/ What is said in this text of their practices. 3/ The terrible end of those that walk after the flesh. 4/ How shall we escape being beguiled and allured.* **Sermon Summary:** This sermon issues a solemn warning against those who walk after the flesh and despise divine authority, drawing parallels between the teachings of 2 Peter, Jude, and Romans. The preacher emphasizes that believers must not remain neutral but must actively choose to walk after the Spirit rather than the flesh to avoid spiritual peril. Key themes include the deceptive nature of false teachers who feast within the church and the absolute necessity of being established in biblical truth to resist their allure. The message urges the congregation to mortify sinful deeds, maintain stability in God's word, and hate evil with urgency. Ultimately, it calls for a wholehearted commitment to holiness, relying on the Spirit for deliverance from the corruption of the world.

The sermon examines the repetitive and worsening cycle of sin depicted in the book of Judges, where Israel consistently falls into idolatry and oppression. It identifies the root cause as the indwelling sin nature and emphasizes the need for believers to recognize their dependence on God rather than relying on willpower. By referencing Romans and Ephesians, the message explains that victory over sin is achieved through faith in Christ's finished work on the cross and daily yielding to the Holy Spirit. The preacher encourages humble reliance on Jesus' grace and forgiveness as the means to break this destructive pattern and walk in newness of life. Ultimately, the sermon asserts that believers possess the power to overcome sin through the transformative presence of the Holy Spirit.
