Sermon: Shalom - Peace

Text: Judges 6:22-24

As we continue to discuss the Names of God and how they help to reorder our lives we have come to Shalom or Peace. This is more than the absence of War and is instead the presence of wholeness and harmony in all areas of our life. The only way to have this kind of Shalom is through a relationship with God the Father, established through Jesus (God the Son) and empowered by the Holy Spirit.

Series: The Names of God

Sermon: Nissi + Sabaoth (Banner & Hosts)

Text: Exodus 17:8-16 & 1 Samuel 17:45-47

With this continuation in the series on the Names of God, we considered two of God's Names that are associated with YHWH as Warrior. He is the Banner or rallying point for the armies and He is the Commander of Hosts. There is none that can stand against Him.

A statement was made in this sermon that was not completely true. In speaking of the fact that God is for everyone and that His only enemies are the Spiritual Forces of Wickedness, there was an overstatement. We can make ourselves an enemy of God, while God loves (and is for) every man, woman and child we can choose to be His enemy by rejecting Him.

Sermon: El Roi - The God Who Sees Me

Text: Genesis 16

As we continue to discuss the names of God we are introduced to a name that was given to God by Hagar the Egyptian Handmaid of Sarai.

Series: The Names of God

Sermon: El Shaddai

Text: Genesis 17:1-8

As we continue to talk about the powerful names of God, this sermon covers El Shaddai (God Almighty or The All Sufficient God).

When we consider the power of God it is important not to separate His power from His love and concern for us. This name indicates that God's sufficiency for us is similar to that of a Mother's sufficiency for the child in her womb or as the child is nursing from her.
