Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation, Jesus commanded His church just before His ascension. Yet it’s in the writings of the apostle Paul we find vital elements for steadfast faith in both ministry in the church and as a witness to the world. Pastor Brett Meador begins by reminding us of Habakkuk’s vision for preachers . . . in Today’s Word.

In Chapter 2 of the Old Testament book of Habakkuk, the prophet shares the importance of having a clear vision in ministry. Beginning a new series of Habakkuk, Pastor Brett references how the apostle Paul applied the vision given to Habakkuk in his teachings for New Testament preaching of the gospel of Christ. It’s an accurate focus on the word, coming up in Today’s Word.

The prophet Nahum exposed how Nineveh, the once powerful and feared capital of the Assyrian Empire, became subject to God’s just judgment. And as our look into the book of Nahum continues, we’re reminded that through eyes of God no one is beyond accountability. Pastor Brett Meador reminds us through our study of Today’s Word how the Lord alone is sovereign over all.

It’s been said the book of the prophet Nahum wasn’t as much of a call to repentance for the vile people of Nineveh, as it was a declaration to God’s people of Judah to not despair because the Lord had pronounced judgment and the Ninevites would soon be getting just what they deserved. Pastor Brett Meador returns to a verse by verse study of the book of Nahum in Today’s Word.

After squandering their chance at repentance, the people of Nineveh since Jonah’s ministry had been living lives even wickeder than before. As Pastor Brett Meador looks into the book of Nahum, we’ll see the evil they are doing depicted, and why God’s judgment was indeed deserved. But Today’s Word also foreshadows God’s judgement in store for the end times as well.

Amidst a message depicting judgment and destruction, a beautiful little verse of hope is tucked away in the book of Nahum Chapter 1 never-the-less. As we face distressing times, Pastor Brett Meador says we can use this passage from Today’s Word as a model to help focus on God and His goodness - even when things seem at their worst. We begin with a reminder of that promise.

On one hand the apostle Paul has written, “There is no one righteous”. However, the prophet Nahum proclaimed a more powerful truth: “The Lord is good, a stronghold in the day of trouble.” And coming up in Today’s Word Pastor Brett Meador reflects on God’s character as Nahum reminds us that God’s goodness remains steady, protecting those who put their trust in Him.

The prophet Micah lamented about the moral decay of God’s people, expressing sorrow for their corruption. However, Micah also demonstrated his unwavering faith by expressing confidence in God’s unfailing love and mercy. Concluding our verse-by-verse study of the book of Micah, Pastor Brett Meador points to the loving grace of the gospel as our source of true salvation.

The prophet Micah sought to emphasize the importance of genuine repentance to the Lord, not merely outward displays of piety. In response to their rebellious attitude, God called for the people to simply walk humbly with Him. Continuing a verse by verse study in Today’s Word, Pastor Brett Meador summarizes the essential steps of reconciliation and the forgiveness God offers.
