The Morning Devotional Season 11 | Edition 78 Psalm 118 Providence Presbyterian Church Evansville, IN Pastor's Website: https://theparchment.net/ This devotional explores Psalm 118 as a profound prophecy of the ministry and suffering of Jesus Christ. The speaker highlights how the psalmist's distress and ultimate deliverance mirror the Lord's rejection by men and His triumph over death through resurrection. Central to the message is the identification of Jesus as the rejected stone that became the cornerstone of salvation. The sermon emphasizes that believers find security not in human power but in God's steadfast love, which endures forever. Through Christ's obedience and victory, sinners are redeemed and assured of eternal life.

The sermon expounds on Colossians 3:1-11, urging believers to set their affections on heavenly things rather than earthly desires. It emphasizes that Christians are dead to the old life and must actively mortify sinful behaviors such as sexual immorality, anger, and deceit. The speaker highlights the progressive nature of sanctification, noting that while salvation provides the power to overcome sin, believers must continually renew their minds through Scripture. Unity among diverse believers is underscored by the truth that Christ is all in all, transcending social and cultural divisions. Ultimately, the message calls for a lifestyle of holiness and patience as believers await the glorious return of Jesus.
