God ways are not our ways. The wonderful news of the Gospel is that God has sent His Son, the Lord Jesus to bring salvation to fallen man. Through the preaching of Gospel, God’s love has been revealed in Jesus that you may be saved from your sins and come into the joy of eternal life.

Bible Scriptures: Darby Translation 

Psalms 25:4-12 “4 Make me to know thy ways, O Jehovah; teach me thy paths.5 Make me to walk in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day.6 Remember, Jehovah, thy tender mercies and thy loving-kindnesses; for they are from everlasting.

7 Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions; according to thy loving-kindness remember thou me, for thy goodness’ sake, Jehovah.8 Good and upright is Jehovah; therefore will he instruct sinners in the way:9 The meek will he guide in judgment, and the meek will he teach his way.10 All the paths of Jehovah are loving-kindness and truth for such as keep his covenant and his testimonies.11 For thy name’s sake, O Jehovah, thou wilt indeed pardon mine iniquity; for it is great.12 What man is he that feareth Jehovah? him will he instruct in the way [that] he should choose.”

Galatians 2:20 “20 I am crucified with Christ, and no longer live, *I*, but Christ lives in me; but [in] that I now live in flesh, I live by faith, the [faith] of the Son of God, who has loved me and given himself for me.”

3 for I have wished, I myself, to be a curse from the Christ for my brethren, my kinsmen, according to flesh;

4 who are Israelites; whose [is] the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the law-giving, and the service, and the promises;

5 whose [are] the fathers; and of whom, as according to flesh, [is] the Christ, who is over all, God blessed for ever. Amen.”

Bible Scriptures: Darby Translation 

Isaiah 59:1-2 “59 Behold, Jehovah’s hand is not shortened that it cannot save, neither his ear heavy that it cannot hear;2 but your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid [his] face from you, that he doth not hear.”

Isaiah 59:7-8 “7 Their feet run to evil, and they make haste to shed innocent blood; their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity; wasting and destruction are in their paths;8 the way of peace they know not, and there is no judgment in their goings; they have made their paths crooked: whoso goeth therein knoweth not peace.

Isaiah 59:15-16 “And Jehovah saw [it], and it was evil in his sight that there was no judgment.16 And he saw that there was no man, and he wondered that there was no intercessor; and his arm brought him salvation, and his righteousness, it sustained him.”

Isaiah 59:20 “And the Redeemer will come to Zion, and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob, saith Jehovah.”

Isaiah 52:7-8 “7 How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that announceth glad tidings, that publisheth peace; that announceth glad tidings of good, that publisheth salvation, that saith unto Zion, Thy God reigneth!

8 —The voice of thy watchmen, they lift up the voice, they sing aloud together; for they shall see eye to eye, when Jehovah shall bring again Zion.”

Isaiah 52:13-15 “13 Behold, my servant shall deal prudently; he shall be exalted and be lifted up, and be very high.14 As many were astonished at thee—his visage was so marred more than any man, and his form more than the children of men15 —so shall he astonish many nations; kings shall shut their mouths at him: for what had not been told them shall they see, and what they had not heard shall they consider.”

Isaiah 53:1 “53 Who hath believed our report? and to whom hath the arm of Jehovah been revealed?2 For he shall grow up before him as a tender sapling, and as a root out of dry ground:”

Isaiah 53:4-6 “4 Surely *he* hath borne our griefs and carried our sorrows; and we, we did regard him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was upon him, and with his stripes we are healed.6 All we like sheep have gone astray, we have turned every one to his own way; and Jehovah hath laid upon him the iniquity of us all.”

Isaiah 53:10-12 “10 Yet it pleased Jehovah to bruise him; he hath subjected [him] to suffering. When thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see a seed, he shall prolong [his] days, and the pleasure of Jehovah shall prosper in his hand.11 He shall see of [the fruit of] the travail of his soul, [and] shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant instruct many in righteousness; and *he* shall bear their iniquities. 12 Therefore will I assign him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong: because he hath poured out his soul unto death, and was reckoned with the transgressors; and he bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.”

Acts 10:34-43 “34 And Peter opening his mouth said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons,

35 but in every nation he that fears him and works righteousness is acceptable to him.36 The word which he sent to the sons of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ, (*he* is Lord of all things,)37 *ye* know; the testimony which has spread through the whole of Judaea, beginning from Galilee after the baptism which John preached—38 Jesus who [was] of Nazareth: how God anointed him with [the] Holy Spirit and with power; who went

God sent His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ into this world to redeem mankind from their sins. The Bible tells us that our sins have separated us from a holy and righteous God but there is wonderful news in the Gospel. Jesus has paid for our sin penalty in full when He went to Calvary’s Cross and shed his precious blood. Through this great sacrifice of the Lord Jesus we can be redeemed, brought to God and receive sonship.

Bible Scripture: Darby Translation 

Galatians 4:1-7 “4 but when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, come of woman, come under law,5 that he might redeem those under law, that we might receive sonship.

6 But because ye are sons, God has sent out the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying, Abba, Father.7 So thou art no longer bondman, but son; but if son, heir also through God.”

Jesus tells us in the Gospel of Matthew to “Seek ye first the kingdom of God” and he promises blessing if obey his words. What are your priorities? Often as Christians we can take our eyes what really matters. Jesus said seek God’s Kingdom, follow Him and he will come in blessing.

Bible Scriptures: Darby Translation 

Matthew 6:31-34 “31 Be not therefore careful, saying, What shall we eat? or What shall we drink? or What shall we put on?32 for all these things the nations seek after; for your heavenly Father knows that ye have need of all these things.

33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you.34 Be not careful therefore for the morrow, for the morrow shall be careful about itself. Sufficient to the day [is] its own evil.”

Mark 10:17-22 “17 And as he went forth into the way, a person ran up to [him], and kneeling to him asked him, Good Teacher, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?18 But Jesus said to him, Why callest thou me good? no one is good but one, [that is] God.

19 Thou knowest the commandments: Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Do not defraud, Honour thy father and mother.20 And he answering said to him, Teacher, all these things have I kept from my youth.21 And Jesus looking upon him loved him, and said to him, One thing lackest thou: go, sell whatever thou hast and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me, [taking up the cross].22 But he, sad at the word, went away grieved, for he had large possessions.”

Jesus tells Peter to “feed my lambs” new established believers. This was a direct commission to Peter in John 21 but there is call in the scriptures for the church to also take on responsibility for providing spiritual food for God’s people today. “Who then is the faithful and prudent bondman whom his lord has set over his household, to give them food in season?”

Bible Scriptures: Darby Translation 

Matthew 24:45 “45 Who then is the faithful and prudent bondman whom his lord has set over his household, to give them food in season?”

1 Corinthians 3:1-7 “3 And *I*, brethren, have not been able to speak to you as to spiritual, but as to fleshly; as to babes in Christ.2 I have given you milk to drink, not meat, for ye have not yet been able, nor indeed are ye yet able;

3 for ye are yet carnal. For whereas [there are] among you emulation and strife, are ye not carnal, and walk according to man?4 For when one says, *I* am of Paul, and another, *I* of Apollos, are ye not men?5 Who then is Apollos, and who Paul? Ministering servants, through whom ye have believed, and as the Lord has given to each.6 *I* have planted; Apollos watered; but God has given the increase. 7 So that neither the planter is anything, nor the waterer; but God the giver of the increase.”

Hebrews 5:12-14 “12 For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have again need that [one] should teach you what [are] the elements of the beginning of the oracles of God, and are become such as have need of milk, [and] not of solid food.13 For every one that partakes of milk [is] unskilled in the word of righteousness, for he is a babe;

14 but solid food belongs to full-grown men, who, on account of habit, have their senses exercised for distinguishing both good and evil.”

Hebrews 6:1 “6 Wherefore, leaving the word of the beginning of the Christ, let us go on [to what belongs] to full growth,”

Have you heard the joyful sound? Jesus saves. The Gospel is preached because there is a wonderful Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ and He is able to save you. In the following preaching, you will hear two eyewitness accounts from Matthew’s Gospel when Jesus saved His disciples when they were in distress. What a wonderful Saviour!

Bible Scriptures: Darby Translation 

Matthew 8:23-27 23 And he went on board ship and his disciples followed him;24 and behold, [the water] became very agitated on the sea, so that the ship was covered by the waves; but *he* slept.25 And the disciples came and awoke him, saying, Lord save: we perish.

26 And he says to them, Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith? Then, having arisen, he rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm.27 But the men were astonished, saying, What sort [of man] is this, that even the winds and the sea obey him?”

Matthew 14:22-33 “22 And immediately he compelled the disciples to go on board ship, and to go on before him to the other side, until he should have dismissed the crowds.23 And having dismissed the crowds, he went up into the mountain apart to pray. And when even was come, he was alone there,

24 but the ship was already in the middle of the sea tossed by the waves, for the wind was contrary.25 But in the fourth watch of the night he went off to them, walking on the sea.26 And the disciples, seeing him walking on the sea, were troubled, saying, It is an apparition. And they cried out through fear.

27 But Jesus immediately spoke to them, saying, Take courage; it is *I*: be not afraid.28 And Peter answering him said, Lord, if it be *thou*, command me to come to thee upon the waters.29 And he said, Come. And Peter, having descended from the ship, walked upon the waters to go to Jesus.30 But seeing the wind strong he was afraid; and beginning to sink he cried out, saying, Lord, save me.

31 And immediately Jesus stretched out his hand and caught hold of him, and says to him, O thou of little faith, why didst thou doubt?32 And when they had gone up into the ship, the wind fell.33 But those in the ship came and did homage to him, saying, Truly thou art God’s Son.”

Matthew 7:24-27 “24 Whoever therefore hears these my words and does them, I will liken him to a prudent man, who built his house upon the rock;25 and the rain came down, and the streams came, and the winds blew and fell upon that house, and it did not fall, for it had been founded upon the rock.

26 And every one who hears these my words and does not do them, he shall be likened to a foolish man, who built his house upon the sand;27 and the rain came down, and the streams came, and the winds blew and beat upon that house, and it fell, and its fall was great.”

Bible Scriptures: Darby Translation

1 Corinthians 15:3-4 “3 For I delivered to you, in the first place, what also I had received, that Christ died for our sins, according to the scriptures;4 and that he was buried; and that he was raised the third day, according to the scriptures;”

John 9:24-25 “24 They called therefore a second time the man who had been blind, and said to him, Give glory to God: we know that this man is sinful.25 He answered therefore, If he is sinful I know not. One thing I know, that, being blind [before], now I see.”

42 And as he spoke straightway the leprosy left him, and he was cleansed.43 And having sharply charged him, he straightway sent him away,44 and says to him, See thou say nothing to any one, but go, shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing what Moses ordained, for a testimony to them.45 But he, having gone forth, began to proclaim [it] much, and to spread the matter abroad, so that he could no longer enter openly into the city, but was without in desert places, and they came to him from every side.”
