Church Theme 2024 | Prayer in the Church
According to 1 Timothy 1: 12-19, the author expresses gratitude to Christ Jesus for enabling him and putting him into the ministry.
Of course, some think Paul didn’t write 1 Timothy and so conclude this statement doesn’t carry apostolic weight. Others find a contradiction with Galatians 3:28 (“there is no male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus”) and declare a person’s gender to be irrelevant for how he or she serves in the church.
But suppose a godly woman in a complementarian church (i.e., a church that ordains only qualified men as pastors) looks at 1 Timothy 2:12 and wonders, What does it mean that I’m not permitted “to teach or to exercise authority over a man”? What ought she conclude and why? It’s a good question to ask in a context where “women who profess godliness” (v. 10) are called on to learn (v. 11). This implies putting into practice what Scripture teaches.

So Peter writes that we should stay alert, "preparing your minds for action." We must take control of where our thoughts go, and what our minds dwell on. If we do not fully engage in intentional hope-setting, we will be easily distracted by the false hope of satisfaction the world continually offers us.
Even to the very poor, Jesus says not to worry about food or clothes. God feeds the birds and clothes the lilies beautifully, and His children are far more valuable than birds. Anxious emotions can't add even an hour to a person's life. Instead, Jesus tells His followers to trust God to provide what they truly need.

“This, then, is how you should pray: “ 'Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.

Jeremiah did not choose to be a prophet, God chose Jeremiah. God had placed such a burden for the people on Jeremiah, that he was compelled to prophesy. God touched his mouth and put His words in Jeremiah's mouth. The message then was God's message, spoken through Jeremiah.

2024 Theme: The Year of Prayer
Minister Rich Lampley II
God has prepared eternal bodies for all who are in Christ and has given to them the Holy Spirit as a guarantee of what we will receive when this life is done (2 Corinthians 5:1–5). Paul acknowledges that he is ready to be at home with the Lord, right now, free of his earthly body. He is not suicidal.
Mark 3:14--Called to be with Him
Acts 4:13---They had been with Jesus
John 1:1----With God
Acts 15:14--Calling a people for His name Noah condemned the world by faith

1. We have been sanctified, vs 10.
2. We are being sanctified, vs 14.
3. We have a new unconditional covenant, vs 16.
4. We have boldness and confidence to enter the throne room of God, vs 19-20.
5. We have high Priest over the house of God, vs 21. As long as He lives your salvation is secure.
Sanctification literally means "to set apart for special use or purpose", that is, to make holy or sacred. Therefore, sanctification refers to the state or process of being set apart, i.e. "made holy", as a vessel, full of the Holy Spirit of God.
The apostle, in this chapter, applies what he has collected in the chapter foregoing, and makes use of it as a great motive to patience and perseverance in the Christian faith and state, pressing home the argument.

The rider of the second horse is often taken to represent War (he is often pictured holding a sword upwards as though ready for battle) or mass slaughter. His horse's color is red (πυρρός, pyrrhos from πῦρ, fire), and in some translations, the color is specifically a "fiery" red.

In Revelation 13:1-10, the first beast (interpreted as the Antichrist) rises "out of the sea" and is given authority and power by the dragon. This first beast is initially mentioned in Revelation 11:7 as emerging from the abyss.

Now we are in middle of the last 7 year period just before Jesus Christ 2nd coming. In this chapter Jesus is introducing another important character called dragon in His divine plan. This dragon is not just going to appear at that time. He is not a new character but he has already in this world from the time Adam and Eve was created by God.

The prophet foresees God calling and anointing King Cyrus of Persia to be His chosen instrument to subdue nations (namely Babylon) for the sake of His people Israel. Cyrus, who was not yet born at the time of the prophecy, did not know the Lord or even acknowledge His existence, making him an unlikely choice to be God’s anointed. The pick of Cyrus proved all the more that God is sovereign and in control of all things and people. As the only true God and Creator of all life, His authority and decisions cannot truly be challenged:

B. They profess but they lie
C. Worship god before our feet not worship us
D. And to Know that I have loved (chose) you
E. Matt 16:18--upon this rock I will build My church and the gates of Hades will not prevail...
He's simply saying that having “little power” isn't inherently and always bad. In spite of your lack of size and influence, says Jesus, you faithfully kept my word and, in the face of persecution and perhaps even martyrdom, refused to deny my name. Give customers a reason to do business with you.
32. because of all the evil of the children of Israel and the children of Judah, which they have done to provoke Me to anger they, their kings, their princes, their priests, their prophets, the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
33. And they have turned to Me the back, and not the face; though I taught them, rising up early and teaching them, yet they have not listened to receive instruction .
Deuteronomy 6 is a reminder of who God is, all He has done, and the amazing opportunity we have to respond to Him with love. It's a reminder to tell God's story well, to all people, and especially to children.
Jeremiah tells Baruch to put the deed in a clay jar and save it, because someday their family members' descendants (or whoever) will be able to return to Judah after the exile ends and show that they own the field. This is a kind of vote of confidence in God's promise that the people will get back to Judah.
In this passage, Jesus again confronts the Pharisees by clarifying God's views on marriage and divorce. He reminds the disciples not to dismiss the spiritual perspective of children. This chapter also records Jesus' encounter with the rich young ruler, who becomes an object lesson in why wealth makes it hard for people to rely on God. After this, Jesus deftly sets aside an arrogant request from James and John, and again predicts His impending death. Just prior to the triumphal entry of chapter 11, Jesus is sought out by Bartimaeus, whom He heals of blindness.
This letter offers a great deal of personal insight into Paul’s life that is not present in any other New Testament book. However, in chapters 8 and 9, his letter also clearly reveals God’s plan for His people to give to others.
How did the Lord convey the contents of this book to His servant? According to Revelation 1:1–2, the Father gave the revelation to the Son, and the Son shared it with the apostle, using “His angel” as intermediary.
Judges 5:1 is a celebration of God's grace and the victories he had given to them and the ways he had shown himself faithful to them. And it's specific. It just lists in these days, this happened, in those days, that happened.
King Ahab is shown mercy by God.
Find Rest In Jesus | Matthew 11:25-30
For the yoke I will give you is easy, and the load I will put on you is light.” Reflection. Our gospel today talks about God's reward to those who are humble enough to acknowledge weaknesses and failures. We need to be humble and accept that we are all sinners who need God our Savior.
The Greatest Invitation | Pastor Julius T. Davis, Jr.
In this parable observe the free grace and mercy of God shining in the gospel of Christ, which will be food and a feast for the soul of a man that knows its own wants and miseries. All found some pretense to put off their attendance. This reproves the Jewish nation for their neglect of the offers of Christ's grace.

B. Confidence is freedom of speech

In John 4, our Lord ministers to a variety of people, the sinful Samaritan woman, His own disciples, the many Samaritans who trusted in Him, and finally, a nobleman and his household. What did these have in common? Faith in Jesus Christ. John was fulfilling the purpose of his gospel in showing his readers how various kinds and classes of people came to believe in Jesus as the Son of God. Let’s meet these various persons and discover how their faith began, how it grew, and what it did for them and for others.

The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show His servants—things which must shortly take place. And He sent and signified it by His angel to His servant John, who bore witness to the word of God, and to the testimony of Jesus Christ, to all things that he saw.
God tells Jeremiah to head out to the city gates of Jerusalem and urge the people to keep the Sabbath holy, telling them not to do any work on the Sabbath. Their ancestors received the same instructions but apparently ignored them.

The rebellion of Korah demonstrates the grim consequences of usurping the authority of God and of those whom He has chosen to be leaders of His people.

Jude addresses the problem of false teachers who have come and are now threatening the faith that was once for all entrusted to God’s holy people. On the basis of supposedly inspired dreams, they reject authority and pollute their own bodies.
Pastor Julius T. Davis, Jr. | February 5, 2023
For certain people have crept in unnoticed, those who were long beforehand marked out for this condemnation, ungodly persons who turn the grace of our God into indecent behavior and deny our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ.
