Podcasts about coming king

In this sermon, Pastor Steven follows the growing divide between Saul and David as jealousy and fear turn Saul against the man God has chosen to be king. While Saul rejects David and seeks his destruction, Jonathan responds with love, loyalty, and sacrifice—even surrendering his own claim to the throne. Their contrasting responses point us toward Jesus, the true King who was rejected by His own yet calls us His friends, inviting us to lay down our crowns before the One who first laid down His life for us.

I Saw God Today: Signs of the Coming King Zechariah 9:9-10; 14:9R

HAGGAI, ZECHARIAH and MALACHI It is an unfortunate misconception that because these books are called "The Minor Prophets, as their relevance to our lives is also minor." This couldn't be further from the truth! The richness of life's lessons and our prophetic hope permeate every word. Don't be tricked into missing these overwhelmingly rich studies. In the book of Haggai we see God sending the prophet Haggai to challenge the people to rebuild which led to a significant turning point in their history. Haggia's audience was the remnant. (They were not unbelievers.) They were the right people, living in the right place, wanting to do the right work, and for the right reasons. But their priorities were not right. They were caught up in their own pursuits. They were living for themselves rather than for God's glory. [Isn't that us?] Zechariah is often called the Apocalypse of the OT, it presents the Messiah as: The Branch who will remove iniquity, The Stone, His Throne, His Temple, The Coming King, The Shepherd, The Triumphal Entry, on a donkey, His Betrayal for 30 pieces of silver, His Crucifixion, and His Second Coming: looking upon me whom they pierced. It also focuses on the Day of YHWH, the return of Israel in unbelief, and their passing through the Great Tribulation; the siege of Jerusalem by the confederated Gentile powers, and their deliverance by King Messiah. Zechariah also gives us the only physical description of the Antichrist in the Scripture. [It also seems to suggest a neutron bomb in Chapter 14.] It also may hold the solution to the enigma of Mystery Babylon and its relation to literal Babylon in prophecy. Malachi means ''my messengers.'' Malachi ministered in the fifth century b.c., about 100 years after Cyrus had issued the decree in 538 b.c. which permitted Jews to return from exile to Judah. The destruction of Edom (re: Mal 1:3-5) was affected by the Nabatean Arabs who totally drove out the Edomites between 550 and 400 B.C., setting up their own Idumean state in its place.

In this sermon, Pastor Steven explores the familiar story of David and Goliath through the lens of faith and courage. While Saul and Goliath place their confidence in human strength, David faces the giant with a deeper confidence in the power and faithfulness of God. More than an underdog story, this passage reveals the kind of King David would become and points us to Jesus Christ, the greater Shepherd-King who went before His people, defeated the enemies they could never overcome, and now calls us to live with courageous faith because the battle belongs to the Lord. 

In this sermon, Pastor Steven introduces David, the king chosen not by the people but by God Himself. While Saul's reign is marked by outward appearance and fading strength, David is selected because God sees what man cannot see—the heart. From the fields of Bethlehem to the courts of Saul, David emerges as a shepherd, musician, and servant through whom God begins preparing His people for a different kind of king. Ultimately, David's story points beyond himself to Jesus Christ, the greater Son of David, who lays down His life for His sheep and leads His people into the presence of God. 

Join my husband and I as we go through the entire Bible in a year, in conjunction with the Bible Discovery Guide and The Daily Show. This weekend we answer some of the big questions and viewer questions concerning the Coming King, God's judgment, and trusting Him above all else. If you want to know your Bible better, then this is a great place to help deepen your big picture understanding.

In this sermon, Pastor Steven examines Saul's final failure as king in 1 Samuel 15 and the obedience that God desires from His people. Though Saul achieves military victory, his partial obedience reveals a deeper problem: a heart more concerned with appearances, personal judgment, and the approval of others than with trusting and obeying God's word. As Samuel declares that “to obey is better than sacrifice,” we see why Saul's kingdom is taken from him and why Israel needs a different kind of king. Ultimately, this passage points beyond Saul and David to Jesus Christ, the perfectly obedient King whose righteousness is counted to all who belong to Him.

In this sermon, Pastor Steven contrasts the fear-driven leadership of Saul with the courageous faith of Jonathan during Israel's conflict with the Philistines. As Saul struggles to trust God when circumstances turn against him, Jonathan moves forward in confidence, believing that “nothing can hinder the Lord from saving by many or by few.” Through their stories, we see the difference between relying on human plans and resting in God's promises. Ultimately, this message points us to Jesus Christ, the true King who went before His people, secured their salvation, and now calls us to live by faith in His power and faithfulness.

In this sermon, Pastor Steven introduces Saul, Israel's first king, and explores the contrast between the leader the people desired and the leader God's people truly needed. Chosen by God and empowered by His Spirit, Saul appears to have every natural qualification for the throne, yet subtle cracks in his character begin to emerge from the very start. As Saul's story unfolds, we are challenged to consider where we place our trust and are ultimately pointed to the greater King, Jesus Christ, whose reign is marked not by outward strength alone but by perfect faithfulness to God. 

Palm SundaySermon: Our Coming KingScripture: 1 Kings 1:28-40Pastor: David Giese

In this sermon, Pastor Steven introduces Saul, Israel's first king—a man who seemed to have everything the people were looking for. Chosen by God yet shaped by the desires of the nation, Saul's rise reveals the difference between the king people want and the king they truly need. As Saul begins his reign with promise and success, the seeds of deeper struggles are already present, pointing us beyond human strength and leadership to the greater King who trusts God perfectly and reigns forever. 

In this sermon, Pastor Steven explores the pivotal transition from the era of the judges to the rise of Israel's monarchy. Through Israel's repentance at Mizpah, Samuel's victory over the Philistines, and the raising of the Ebenezer stone, we see a God who remains faithful to His people despite their weakness and wandering. Yet as Israel demands a king “like the nations,” this message reveals both the danger of rejecting God's rule and the hope of a greater King whom God would provide in His mercy. Ultimately, the story points us to Christ, the faithful King who accomplishes God's good purposes even through human failure.

This week in Daniel 7, we shift from the stories of lions' dens and fiery furnaces into the strange and powerful world of prophecy and apocalyptic vision. As Daniel sees terrifying beasts, arrogant kingdoms, and heavenly thrones, one truth rises above the chaos: God is sovereign over history, nations, and the future. In a world filled with fear, uncertainty, and shifting kingdoms, this message reminds us that Jesus is the eternal King we can fully trust.

In this sermon, Pastor Steven walks through one of the darkest moments in Israel's history—the defeat by the Philistines, the capture of the ark, and the death of Eli and his sons. As Israel treats the presence of God like a tool to control rather than a holy reality to worship, the story reveals both the depth of the nation's spiritual decline and the danger of trying to use God for our own purposes.Yet even in judgment and apparent defeat, God shows His absolute power and sovereignty. From the fall of Dagon before the ark to the return of the ark without Israel lifting a sword, this message reminds us that God cannot be manipulated, defeated, or contained—and that even in the darkest seasons, He remains fully in control of His people's story.

17th May 2026 - Dundalk. Ministered by Pastor Jason Cooney.

In this sermon, Pastor Steven contrasts the corruption of Eli's household with the quiet faithfulness of Samuel to show how God begins His work of renewal in seasons of spiritual decline. As the word of the Lord comes to the young Samuel in the silence of the night, we see that God is never absent from His people—even when His voice seems rare.Through Samuel's call, this message explores how God confronts unfaithfulness, raises up new servants, and invites His people to hear and respond to His voice. In every generation, renewal begins when God calls His people to deeper trust, greater faithfulness, and wholehearted service to His kingdom.

10th May 2026 - Dundalk. Ministered by Pastor Jason Cooney.

In this sermon, Pastor Steven begins the story of 1 Samuel with Hannah—a woman marked by sorrow, longing, and faithful prayer. Through her anguish and her desperate cry before the Lord, we see the tender heart of a God who hears the pain of His people and works through ordinary lives to accomplish extraordinary purposes.As the birth of Samuel signals the beginning of a new era for Israel, this message reminds us that God's faithfulness is often revealed not only in grand movements of history, but in His personal care for every tear, every prayer, and every burden brought before Him.

Apocalyptic literature can feel like a riddle, but we're convinced God gives these visions to reveal truth that steadies the church, not to stir panic. We connect the imagery to Jesus' words in Matthew 24–25 and key scenes in Revelation, then keep bringing the conversation back to a simple anchor: God is sovereign, and His plan is not haphazard.We also tackle a major sticking point for end times teaching: tribulation views and the timing of the rapture. We explain the basic differences between pre-tribulation, mid-tribulation, and post-tribulation perspectives and why people who love Scripture can still disagree. Even if you believe the church won't be present for the tribulation, Zechariah still lands with real force because it reveals God's character, God's judgment, and God's grace. The same mercy God promises to pour out is the mercy that saves us through Jesus Christ.From there, we talk about Israel and why it's so easy to get pulled into two extremes in today's media climate. We push back on both uncritical cheerleading and ugly blame, because Scripture names sin as the true problem. We also discuss false prophets in Zechariah's warning and what that means in an age of YouTube experts and nonstop commentary. The practical takeaway is personal: don't compartmentalize your faith. God calls us to consecration, to real holiness, and to rooting out idols before they grow.If this helped you think more clearly about Zechariah, the end times, and daily Christian discernment, subscribe, share this with a friend, and leave a review so more people can find the show.New episodes every Mondaywww.lifehousemot.cominfo@lifehousede.comJoin us Sundays at 9 & 11 AMIntro music by Joey Blair

In this opening sermon to 1 Samuel, Pastor Steven introduces the story of Israel's transition from chaos to kingship through the lens of the “Ebenezer”—a stone that marks God's faithfulness. Tracing the broader story of Scripture from Judges to the rise of Samuel, Saul, and David, this message shows how God's people, broken and leaderless, are led toward the need for a true king.As the story unfolds, 1 Samuel reveals not only how God has been faithful in the past, but how He will continue to be faithful—ultimately pointing beyond David to the greater King who secures lasting salvation for His people. 

This sermon reflects on Christ's Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem as both the fulfillment of Old Covenant prophecy and a foreshadowing of His final return in glory, emphasizing the contrast between those who laid down garments and those who offered only palm branches as a symbol of varying degrees of self-surrender to Christ. As Holy Week begins, the faithful are called to move beyond partial devotion and instead offer their whole lives—heart, soul, mind, and body—to the Lord, uniting themselves more fully to His Passion, Crucifixion, and Resurrection. The preacher urges intentional participation in the sacred liturgies of the week, renewed commitment to fasting and repentance, and a detachment from worldly concerns, reminding believers that this sacred time is uniquely filled with grace—enough to sustain the soul for the year—and that through sharing in Christ's suffering, they may also share in His eternal glory.

Psalm 132: God's Covenant Promise and the Coming King Series: Walking Through the Psalms Host: Dave Jenkins Date: Friday, February 27, 2026 Scripture: Psalm 132 Show Summary Psalm 132 is one of the most historically grounded and covenant-rich Songs of Ascents. As pilgrims traveled up to Jerusalem, they sang of God's covenant promises, His dwelling with His people, and His chosen King. This psalm looks back to David's zeal to establish the ark in Jerusalem, upward to God's chosen dwelling place in Zion, and forward to the promised King who reigns forever. Ultimately, Psalm 132 finds its fulfillment in Jesus Christ—the true Son of David, the eternal King, and the true dwelling place of God with His people. God is not absent. God is not forgetful. He keeps His covenant promises in Christ.

We explore the message of the prophets and their prophecies about a coming king who will restore everything, a true beacon of hope for the nation and the entire world. We see further details about the promised king, describing him as more than just a man, but also God himself. We discuss the future of Israel under the king's reign and the hope in his resurrection. Further, we highlight prophecies about a new covenant God plans for Israel and their return to their land after exile.Bible ReadingsIsaiah 9:2-7Isaiah 53:2-12Jeremiah 31:31-34Support the showRead along with us in the Bible Brief App!

Message from Jeremiah Genin on February 8, 2026

Pastor Don's Books: https://ttwpress.com  Welcome to Through the Psalms, a weekend ministry of TheTruthPulpit.com. Over time, we will study all 150 psalms with Pastor Don Green from TruthCommunityChurch.org in Cincinnati, Ohio. We're glad you're with us. Let's open to the Psalms as we join our teacher in The Truth Pulpit. https://thetruthpulpit.com/ttpw 

In this podcast, Rev. Dr. Michael F. Bird explores the crucial sociological context that often influences human interpretation of Scripture along with the complexities involved in reading passages from Paul who is considered both the ally of both egalitarians and complementarians. Spending significant time on Paul's reference to Phoebe (Romans 16:1–2) as deacon in the church of Cenchrea. Too often we allow Paul's passages that appear to silence women for all time (1 Timothy 2:11-15, Ephesians 5:22&FF and 1 Corinthians 14:34–36 ) overlooking the many women speaking, teaching and leading in the OT and NT, especially beside Paul and throughout Church History.  Mike considers the impact of sin on God's original design for women and men in Gen 1:26–31. Because of sin, the mutuality enjoyed by women and men deteriorates into the male rule noted in Gen 3:16.   Supremely, Mike notes the victories of Christ in conquering sin on Calvary, along with the many passages in the New Testament that speak of the ontological mutuality and equal service of women and men, such as Proverbs 31, Galatians 3:28 but also a passage heavily cited by the Abolitionists that reads: “From one man he made all the nations, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he marked out their appointed times in history and the boundaries of their lands,” Acts 17:26. Read full chapter.  Mike masterfully integrates biblical theology, church history, theology, and culture as he explores key topics impacting women, marriage, and service. His sense of humor, use of metaphor and his experiences working in the church and academy brings keen insights into the egalitarian conversation today.
