fear on SermonAudio

"Now these be the last words of David. David the son of Jesse said, and the man who was raised up on high, the anointed of the God of Jacob, and the sweet psalmist of Israel, said, The Spirit of the Lord spake by me, and his word was in my tongue. The God of Israel said, the Rock of Israel spake to me, He that ruleth over men must be just, ruling in the fear of God. And he shall be as the light of the morning, when the sun riseth, even a morning without clouds; as the tender grass springing out of the earth by clear shining after rain. Although my house be not so with God; yet he hath made with me an everlasting covenant, ordered in all things, and sure: for this is all my salvation, and all my desire, although he make it not to grow." 2 Samuel 23:1-5

"I waited patiently for the LORD; and he inclined to me, and heard my cry. He brought me up out of the pit of destruction, out of the miry clay; and he set my feet upon a rock, making my footsteps firm. And he put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God; many will see and fear, and will trust in the LORD." (Psalm 40:1, NASB)

In the second part of our look at Psalm 19 we encounter a sharp contrast. Now we focus on how the law of the Lord will lead us to to joy, wisdom, light, endurance and more. We are reminded that we must allow the perfect, sure, trustworthy and right word, law, precepts, decisions, and commands into our live. David provides an example of desiring these above gold and honey and points us toward God reminding us to search ourselves for unintentional sins as well as the deliberate and presumptuous sins and to remain obedient in God's power.

In this sermon we look at the burial of Christ by Joseph and Nicodemus.

This sermon explores the tension between human suffering and divine sovereignty through the lens of Job 23, highlighting three key confessions: that God hides, knows, and designs. The speaker emphasizes that while God may withdraw His sensible presence during trials, He remains fully aware of the believer's path and heart, refining them like gold through the fire of affliction. By contrasting Job's struggle with the certainty of Christ's resurrection, the message affirms that God's sovereign purposes are not frustrated by darkness or pain. The central assurance is that although believers may not understand God's hidden hand, they can trust in His perfect character and the ultimate victory of the risen Savior over death and despair.

The disciples saw Jesus perform many miracles.This one involved them directly. It must have fortified them for their future storms and it shoulld also help us in the storms we face.
