Sunday Morning Service - 23/08/26 Title: 'Grinding In The Prison House' Bible Reading: Judges 16:4-21

Sunday Morning service at Calvary Baptist Pastor Tracy Puckett We are an old fashioned, Independent Missionary Baptist Church, with Holy Ghost, King James preaching, and spirit filled singing. We invite you to come and be a part of our church family. Our doors are always open, and we hope that you and your family will come and experience the love of God here at Calvary! "I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the LORD. (Psalm 122:1)"

This sermon explores the believer's confident hope of eternal life through an exposition of Psalm 23:6. The preacher emphasizes that assurance of heaven rests not on human merit but on the faithfulness of Christ, the Good Shepherd, who guarantees the sheep's safe arrival in glory. The message highlights three aspects of this future home: its certainty as a destination, its recognizability through the presence of God and fellowship with saints, and its permanence as an eternal rest. By contrasting the temporary struggles of earthly life with the unending joy of the Lord's house, the sermon encourages believers to find comfort in their secure destiny and to cultivate a heavenly-minded perspective on their current walk.

Genesis 6:14-15 Make thee an ark of gopher wood; rooms shalt thou make in the ark, and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch. 15 And this is the fashion which thou shalt make it of: The length of the ark shall be three hundred cubits, the breadth of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirty cubits. 16 A window shalt thou make to the ark, and in a cubit shalt thou finish it above; and the door of the ark shalt thou set in the side thereof; with lower, second, and third stories shalt thou make it. 17 And, behold, I, even I, do bring a flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein is the breath of life, from under heaven; and every thing that is in the earth shall die. Genesis 7:1-24 And the LORD said unto Noah, Come thou and all thy house into the ark; for thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation. 2 Of every clean beast thou shalt take to thee by sevens, the male and his female: and of beasts that are not clean by two, the male and his female. 3 Of fowls also of the air by sevens, the male and the female; to keep seed alive upon the face of all the earth. 4 For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every living substance that I have made will I destroy from off the face of the earth. 5 ¶ And Noah did according unto all that the LORD commanded him. 6 And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon the earth. 7 And Noah went in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him, into the ark, because of the waters of the flood.

God's permanent home is with His people by His Spirit. 1. Not the tabernacle. (v.44-46) 2. Not the temple. (v.47-50) 3. The Holy God lives with sinners! (v.51-53). Does this sink in? Where does God live? 1 K. 8:27 Is. 57:15; 66:1-2 Jn. 14:23 Who rejected God's prophets? Mt. 23:30 Lk. 11:47-51 What is the promise of God's presence? Mt. 18:20 and 28:20.
