Jesus is becoming famous. Crowds are starting to want to be near Him. Four party-crashers tear a roof apart - the crowd is scorning. It’s then that we learn what the Kingdom is all about. Where would you have been in this story?

Malachi, as the last book of the Old Testament, shares some important insight for the follower of God. In this message we see that God calls His people to be devoted followers who revere His name and invest in what matters for eternity. 

From Zechariah we discover the action of authentic obedience is only made possible through recognition and humble acceptance of the power, provision, and presence of God. 

From Haggai we discover insight that is essential to how a movement in God takes place. In Haggai's time it was about the people being inspired to rebuild the temple. In our time it's about being inspired to build the Kingdom of the Lord Jesus.

How does God feel about you? Zephaniah answers this question, assuring us that God has created us for intimacy, love and friendship with Him and He is present with His people. The Lord is mighty to save, takes great delight in His followers, quiets us with His love and rejoices over His beloved with singing. Listen to this message with expectation of an encounter with a God Who loves immeasurably more than you can imagine.

The prophet Habakkuk wrestled with God on why He wasn’t addressing the ungodliness of His people. When God did address their sin, using an even more ungodly people to correct God’s people, Habakkuk really began to wrestle with God. Habakkuk models for us how to wrestle through troubled faith and come to a faith that is triumphant, a faith that trusts God no matter what is going on.

In this week’s message, from Nahum, you will be challenged to trust that God will do what is right, in His time and for His purposes. God delights in mercy but there does come a day when God will say enough and judgment will follow.

Ever wonder what God expects of you as a follower? Micah gives a succinct answer to this question.

Jonah will challenge us to wrestle with the condition of our heart and our view of God’s mercy and deliverance, both for ourselves and for others.

This week we will look at Obadiah’s warning that pride can deceive us into believing we can be completely self-sufficient.
