Honestly, it seemed a little trite: “Yeah yeah, David encouraged himself in the Lord…that’s nice. I don’t feel like encouraging myself in the Lord. I am not in a worshipful mood here. I don’t feel like singing. I don’t have the energy to sit and meditate on high and lofty things. All I can think about is what am I going to do now?!”
Listen as Pastor Rick transparently shares a message of encouragement based on the story of David and Ziklag from 1 Samuel chapter 30.
Listen as Pastor Rick teaches us about trusting God on purpose by choice, based on Psalm 56.
"God
has been at work all along. On this
basis, our faith can stand certain and sure that He will undergird us no matter
the battle or circumstances. Our trust
is in Him and that trust dispels the oppressive fear in which Satan would
rather we live. Undergirded by our faith
and confidence in God we may then face the battle with internal peace and rest confident
that God will enable us to walk before Him in the light of the living."
Listen as Pastor Rick talks about recent events in the news and uses them as a springboard for self-searching and seeking to draw closer to God. Are you in an intimate relationship with God? Do you know how He perceives you? What does God see when He looks at you.
Listen to this little message by Pastor Rick about how to live as a child of God "After God's Own Heart."
