The current debacle concerning the National Anthem has taken center stage. From professional athletes to Hollywood stars, many in the United States are turning their backs on the very country they live in. As an immigrant, this is very offensive to Pastor JD. Today he shares with us the possible feature of the National Anthem. Is it possible it could be completely banned?

Sometimes it’s hard to fathom how the Old and New Testaments are related, but in fact, the Gospel revealed in the New Testament is concealed in the Old. Pastor JD helps us draw these connections in today’s teaching. You may be surprised by how the most minute details in the Law are a picture of God’s redemptive plan for the world.

The Gospel is like God’s invitation to spend eternity in heaven with Him. It’s our job to deliver this invitation to others, but sometimes we’re faced with rejection. Pastor JD shows us in today’s teaching how it’s still a worthy effort: King Hezekiah’s messengers faced rejection from some, but there are also those who joyfully accept!

We trust that God won’t give us more trials than we can handle. This also applies to prosperity as well- it’s possible to have more riches than you can handle. In today’s message, Pastor JD encourages us that no matter what, God will prepare us for whatever He has in store for us. Like Hezekiah and the people, you’ll discover- God is faithful!

Do you care more about pleasing people or pleasing God? You can’t do both, and that’s when a clear yet difficult choice must be made. King Hezekiah had this choice before him as we’ll see in today’s teaching. Pastor JD challenges us that if we want to be a true servant of Christ, then we need to please God, even when it’s not the popular vote.

As Pastor JD shares today...it would be nice for us to all simply smile and pretend that everything is ok in the world. But, would be dishonest, wouldn't it? Things are unraveling globally at a very fast pace. Pastor JD will continue to encourage us to stay true to our convictions about the soon return of our LORD and Savior, Jesus Christ.

It’s hard to believe how easily the Israelites fell into worshipping idols when it’s such a clear commandment. However, we’ll learn from pastor JD that we’re just as prone to idol worship today as ever. Our idols may not be the bronze statue from today’s teaching, but anything and anyone can become an idol if we love them more than God.

Do you listen the first time God tries to get your attention? If you wait too long to obey and surrender, not only will things get more difficult, but you may be in danger of becoming completely callous and forsake God altogether. This is the lesson we can take from King Ahaz’s life in today’s teaching. Pastor JD exhorts us to respond today!

Being a prophet of the Lord isn’t easy. Their job was to speak forth the Word of the Lord to whomever He sent them even if the response was deadly. This was Oded’s job as we’ll hear in today’s teaching with Pastor JD. Despite the response, we’re called to obey God when He calls us to speak up. And who knows? They might listen!
