Psalms: Hearts Heard in Heaven

Picture
Psalm 51 is possibly one of the most beautiful expressions of brokenness before the eternal LORD of Glory. This is a Psalm of confession to be used by believers for it teaches us the right manner of approaching our LORD in confession. All inhibitions and pre-tense are set aside as the King of Israel bares his heart before God. There is no room for self-indulgent thought and boasting, let alone attempting to veil sin before the all-knowing, Holy God of the universe.

The grace of God is sought as the only means to erase the sin. The psalmist understands that, “If you, O LORD, should mark iniquities, O Lord, who could stand?” (Psm.130:3). Here we find the plea of a desperate heart for forgiveness of sin, the provision from a God who owes us nothing but judgment and yet a God who determines to relent and forgive. All that He requires of us is a broken and contrite heart. “The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart, O God, you will not despise” (Psm.51:17). 

O what a gracious God we serve. May we be quick to confess our sins in brokenness and know the renewal through forgiveness and the restoration of sweet intimate fellowship with our LORD.

Sermons in Jonah

Picture
In Genesis we read, “And God said, ‘Let there be light,’ and there was light” (Gen.1:3) so it was with all of creation - there was absolute obedience. 

But when we look at Jonah, he says, NO! Today there is you and I, and together with humanity, we also say 'NO'! OH friends, who do we think we are? 
​
But as it was in the days of Jonah so it is today. God is gracious and merciful, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love, and relenting from disaster (Jonah 4:2). His will was to send a missionary, not just to Ninevah, but to all of humanity, and Jesus says, YES!

What mercy, what grace, what love!
Join us as we teach through the book of Jonah.
