Thank you for listening to this week's message from Central Valley Church! In Week 3 of our Finding Joy series, we look at Philippians 3 and the joy that comes from pursuing Jesus. Paul reminds us that our confidence is not in the flesh, our works, or our accomplishments, but in Christ alone. Jesus is our righteousness, our reward, our Savior, and our Deliverer. Because of Him, we can press on toward the goal and find true joy in knowing Him more.

What happens when pain gets so loud that it affects your ability to hear God? This weekend, Pastor Joaquin continued our MOSES series with a message reminding us that even when pain is present, God is still speaking, still faithful, and still moving towards broken and hurting people. Exodus 6:9Moses spoke thus to the people of Israel, but they did not listen to Moses, because of their broken spirit and harsh slavery. Israel had reached a breaking point. Their suffering intensified, their hope faded, and the Bible says they could not listen “because of their broken spirit and harsh slavery.”1) Pain can affect your ability to hear God's promises.Pain has a way of distorting perspective, shrinking faith, and making God feel distant. But the good news is that God does not abandon people simply because they are struggling to hear Him clearly. Even in weakness, discouragement, and exhaustion, God continues pursuing His people.2) God speaks in the middle of suffering.While Israel focused on bricks, bondage, and survival, God was already speaking liberation, redemption, and promises over their future. God did not begin by explaining everything; He began by revealing Himself: “I am the LORD.” Their suffering was loud, but God was still in control, still faithful, and still working even when they could not see it clearly.3) Jesus is God's loudest Word.All throughout Scripture, God reveals Himself through His Word. And when God wanted to speak most clearly to humanity, He sent Jesus. The Word became flesh. Jesus is the greater Deliverer who stepped into our bondage to bring us freedom by grace. He did not come merely to inspire broken people, but to rescue enslaved people who could never save themselves. Through His death and resurrection, Jesus breaks the power of sin and brings people into true freedom and new life!Disappointment, anxiety, exhaustion, grief, or sin may have made it difficult to hear God clearly.But the good news of the gospel is this: God still speaks. God still pursues. And through Jesus Christ, freedom is still possible.
Was King Saul a type of Christ?Most Christians think of Saul as Israel's failed first king—a man marked by disobedience, pride, and eventual rejection.

From Saul's anointing and victory over Israel's enemies to the serpent imagery surrounding Nahash the Ammonite, this study reveals how even flawed figures in the Old Testament can serve as shadows of the greater King to come.Discover how Saul's story fits into the Bible's unified message and why Jesus is the true and perfect Deliverer who succeeds where every earthly king failed.

Unexpected Grace - Judges 3:12-30 - Pastor Jim Schultz explores the powerful story of Ehud, the left-handed deliverer raised up by God to rescue Israel from oppression. In this engaging sermon from the Book of Judges, we see how God uses unexpected and flawed people to accomplish His perfect purposes. As Israel falls again into sin, God's mercy shines through in raising a deliverer who brings both justice and freedom. Pastor Jim unpacks the tension between human brokenness and divine grace, pointing us ultimately to Jesus Christ, the greater Deliverer who saves without flaw or deception. This message reminds us that no one is beyond God's use and that His grace meets us in our weakness. Be encouraged to see your life through the lens of God's redemptive plan and rest in the unexpected grace found in Christ alone. Perfect for those studying Judges 3 or seeking biblical encouragement today.

In this message from Matthew 14, Pastor Karl explores two seemingly separate events — the beheading of John the Baptist and the feeding of the five thousand — and reveals how they are deeply connected as a portrait of two contrasting kingdoms.Drawing on the parallel between Herod's banquet and Jesus's meal in the wilderness, Pastor Karl shows what sets the kingdom of the world apart from the kingdom of God: one ends in death, self-service, and corruption; the other in life, compassion, and abundance. Through the stories of Elijah, Elisha, and Moses, he demonstrates that the disciples had all the history they needed to trust Jesus in the moment — and yet, like us, they forgot.At the heart of this teaching is a simple but powerful truth: you are insufficient, but you are not useless. The kingdom of God doesn't have a supply problem — it has a distribution problem. God has never asked how much you have. He only asks what you have — and what you place in his hands, he multiplies.Discipleship, Pastor Karl argues, always involves cost, courage, compassion, commands, and cooperation. The good news is that the Good Shepherd is more than sufficient for all his sheep.Watch all our sermons on our youtube channel "Flipside Christian Church"Join us in person 8:00am, 9:30am & 11:00am every Sunday morning.37193 Ave 12 #3h, Madera, CA 93636For more visit us at flipside.churchFor more podcasts visit flipsidepodcasts.transistor.fm
In this episode of Don't Miss This, Dave Butler and Grace Freeman dive into the book of Judges and reframe it as a book not about judgment, but about deliverance. They explain that the Hebrew idea behind “judge” is closer to rescuer, defender, or deliverer, and throughout the book they highlight a recurring “cycle of faithfulness”: the people forget God, fall into trouble, cry for help, and God — nevertheless — raises up a deliverer again and again. The hosts emphasize how deeply this pattern reflects the mercy of God toward imperfect people and how every deliverer story ultimately points toward Jesus Christ, the Great Deliverer. The episode explores several major judges and the lessons their stories teach. Othniel reminds listeners that when people ask for help, the Lord sends strength. Ehud's story highlights how God often uses unexpected people and apparent weaknesses for powerful purposes. Deborah becomes one of the central figures of the lesson — a prophetess, encourager, and “mother in Israel” whose willingness to say “I will surely go with you” becomes a model of courage, mentorship, and faithful support. Grace reflects on the importance of people who lend faith and strength to others when they cannot move forward alone. Samson's story becomes a redemption narrative rather than simply a tragedy. Dave and Grace focus especially on the verse stating that “the hair of his head began to grow again,” teaching that even after failure and spiritual distance, strength and closeness with God can return. They emphasize that Samson's greatest moment came after his greatest mistake, illustrating that repentance can lead to even deeper faith and power than before. Gideon's story then highlights anxiety, insecurity, and learning to trust God despite fear. The hosts discuss Gideon asking repeatedly for signs, showing that faithful people can still struggle with doubt, and they connect his story to modern experiences of seeking reassurance, peace, and guidance from God. Throughout the episode, the central message remains constant: God continually raises up deliverers, works through weakness, stays patient with imperfect people, and fights beside His children even when they feel afraid, unqualified, or broken. The stories of Judges become reminders that God does not abandon His people after failure, but instead repeatedly offers rescue, encouragement, and renewed strength.

As Israel walked out of Egypt, their past would soon hunt them down. Pharoah set out to recapture the Israelites. They were trapped between a river and their oppressors. They were trapped behind an uncrossable barrier and their past coming to reenslave them. 3,500 years later, we face the same predicament. When our future feels impossible and our past is running us down, who will deliver us? Join us for the last week of our series, “The Deliverer”, as we look to the only one who can save us.
Since there is a God, nothing is more important than Who He is and What He is like. In this part of Exodus, He introduces Himself to Moses personally as the great "I Am." He is the true God, the living God, the everlasting God, the One who always has been and always will be. He is the God who loves His people and is committed to their freedom. As Moses stands vulnerable and exposed before Him at the burning bush, God reveals Himself with greatest clarity as the great "I Am" who has always been with and for His people and who has both the plan and the provisions to set His people free. He will execute His plan with perfection and to completion, in His way and time. Just as God worked in the lives of Moses and the Israelites, He works in our lives as well, showing us the desperation of our predicament and the sufficiency of His redemption. He shows us the various ways in which we are enslaved and He reveals Jesus as the One who alone can set free. He is the Way, the Truth, and the Life.
It is God's will that we are conformed to the image of His Son.

Daily Dose of Hope May 13, 2026 Name of God: Qanna – Jealous Scripture: Exodus 34:14, Deuteronomy 4:24, 5:9, 6:15 Prayer: El Qanna, You are a jealous God who loves me completely. Forgive me for the times I have placed other things before You. Help me to love You with all my heart, soul, mind, and strength. Thank You for pursuing me with Your perfect love. In Jesus' name, Amen. Welcome back to the Daily Dose of Hope, the devotional and podcast that complements the New Hope Church daily Bible reading plan. We are currently in a study on the names of God in the Old Testament. Each divine name illustrates a particular aspect of God's character and being. The more we learn about God's names, the more we learn about God's character. Today, we are focusing on El Qanna, which means Jealous God. This is used five times in Scripture, all in the first few books of the Old Testament. We may often misunderstand this name of God, because we see jealousy in its negative state, as it typically is seen as a sin in our fallen world. But when we consider that God is a jealous God, we have to remember that all things belong to God and there is nothing that is not already his. That means his desire for something is not rooted in covetousness, but rather the desire for relationship. The God of the whole universe desires a relationship with His creation and is jealous for them. It might be helpful to consider the covenant that God made with his people through Moses. On Mt. Sinai, God didn't just give the Law to His people, he created a deep, abiding covenant, or contract, with His people. The people had agreed to adhere to the terms of the covenant. In some ways, it was like they were married to the Lord. They were to be faithful to the Lord. And when they were not, God became angry. They weren't living up to their end of the covenant. If you think about jealousy in the terms of a marriage relationship, it makes a bit more sense. If you saw your spouse flirting with someone else, you wouldn't just shrug and say, "Whatever." You'd feel a protective instinct, a righteous anger at the threat that that person could be about to damage something sacred. Your reaction would not be selfishness; it would be devotion. It's an appropriate passion for an exclusive covenant love. We are to have no other gods before us because to do so would be to break the terms of our marriage covenant with God. As Creator, Provider, and Deliverer, he deserves to be worshiped and loved with everything we have. He loves us with a perfect love. When we cheat on Him, God as a totally Holy God deserves to be jealous. His jealousy comes from the truth that He loves us so much. He wants relationship with us. We often picture God as distant, calmly observing us from afar. But El Qanna reveals something different. God cares intensely about His relationship with you. It's not a casual thing to Him. You matter profoundly to the God who made you. God's jealousy means you're worth fighting for. You're the beloved He pursues with holy passion. And when you drift toward things that will harm you, He doesn't just shrug and say, "whatever." He fights for your heart and does everything He can to bring you back to Him. In all of the verses this name is used, the Scripture is referring to idolatry. You should have no idols before me. Of course, worship of idols could be prostrating oneself before a pillar or metal statue. In our world, it's more likely to be putting something else before God, like a relationship, our job, our money, an addiction, etc. What kinds of things do you put before God? Blessings, Pastor Vicki
In part 5 of our series, The Deliverer, we'll see the pride and power of Pharaoh in Egypt, and the hardness of heart that led him to reject God. But it was through Pharoah's rejection of God that God would reveal His power and His grace. What will it take for God to get your attention? What will it take for you to stop rejecting God and see His power and embrace His love? Will you harden your heart or believe?
Pastor explains that there is a particular kind of courage that never makes the history books. It works in the ordinary, unseen ebb and flow of a home!

Have you ever found yourself thinking, “God can't use me?” Have your dreams been dashed by disappointments or personal failures? Have your ambitions died? Do you find yourself just seeking to do your job, pay your bills, and try to find some peace and quiet? In week 4 of our series “The Deliverer”, we'll look at the call of Moses and the excuses he made for why God couldn't use him. Can God still use you?
We begin our new series Hidden Figures with the message “Shamgar: Unexpected Deliverer.” Pastor RJ Ciaramitaro explores how one of the Bible's most overlooked figures reveals a powerful truth: God delights in using the unexpected. Through the lens of 1 Corinthians 1:26–31, this sermon reminds us that our weaknesses, limitations, and ordinary circumstances do not disqualify us—they position us for God's strength to be revealed. If you've ever felt unqualified or overlooked, this message speaks directly to you.
What do you do when life has not turned out how you had hoped, or according to your plans? Whether it is a broken relationship, a lost job, a personal failure, or a life altering change. When your future is uncertain and you feel lost, there is a lot we can learn from the life of Moses. In this sermon, we'll explore Moses' first journey through the wilderness and what God may be teaching us in ours.
The Ten Commandments are often viewed as a restrictive, legalistic burden. However, Jesus presents them as a pathway to an abundant and better life. In the "Ten Words" (as they are known in Jewish tradition), we find a lifestyle defined by a relationship with the God who rescues. While modern culture prioritizes the latter six commandments concerning human interaction, the first four commandments—focused on our relationship with God—provide the essential foundation. Without putting God first, the rest of the law becomes unmanageable and nonsensical.Key Points1. Rescue Before Relationship (Exodus 20:1–2) The Law begins not with a demand, but with a statement of grace: "I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt." God establishes His role as Deliverer before He issues a single "Thou shalt not." These are family rules for those already rescued, not a test to determine who gets into the family.2. Word One: Prioritize the King (Exodus 20:3) "No other gods before me" is an umbrella statement for all other commands. It requires seeking the Kingdom of God first. When God is prioritized over family, career, and self, obedience to the subsequent commands follows naturally.3. Word Two: Proper Worship (Exodus 20:4–6) While the first command identifies who we worship, the second addresses how. We are prohibited from reducing God to an image or a "Golden Calf" that we can control. This includes making God in our own image by picking and choosing which of His ethics to follow. Note the corporate nature of sin mentioned here: what we do not overcome, we often pass on to future generations.4. Word Three: Honoring the Name (Exodus 20:7) Misusing God's name involves more than profanity; it includes hypocrisy. Claiming the name of Christ while acting contrary to His character is the most serious violation of this word. We are called to "hallow" His name in both speech and conduct.5. Word Four: The Rhythm of Rest (Exodus 20:8–11) The Sabbath is a creation principle. While not strictly repeated as a legal requirement in the New Testament (Colossians 2:16), it remains a vital rhythm. Resting is a test of trust—an opportunity to believe that God's work is more important than our own productivity.ConclusionJesus summarized these four words with the greatest commandment: "Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength." We do not keep these rules to earn love, but because He first loved and rescued us through the work of Christ.Calls to ActionEvaluate Priorities: Identify "good things" that have taken God's place as the primary focus of your life.Examine Your Conduct: Are you "wearing the name" of Christ in a way that reflects His character, or is there hypocrisy to address?Embrace Rest: Commit to a rhythm of rest this week as an act of trust in God's provision.

In this powerful Thursday prayer gathering, the focus shifts from teaching to encounter—calling believers into a moment of faith for healing, miracles, and deliverance.Rooted in scriptures such as Psalm 107:20, Isaiah 53:5, Luke 4:18, and Jeremiah 30:17, Overseer Azizah Morrison leads a fervent, Spirit-filled prayer declaring God as Healer and Deliverer. This session confronts sickness, affliction, emotional wounds, and spiritual oppression with bold, faith-filled authority.With warfare language and scriptural declaration, the prayer calls for bodies to be made whole, chains to be broken, and impossible situations to be overturned by the power of God.This is a call to believe again—for immediate healing, for supernatural intervention, and for testimonies to emerge from the presence of God.

Have you ever seen someone with a good desire make a hasty decision? They want to fix what is broken, but instead, they make it worse? Have you ever longed to see someone change for the better, but in your impatience, you pushed them away? As we explore the life of Moses through the pages of Scripture, we'll learn how to pursue our good desires with God's timing and His wisdom instead of our own.
This is message 36 in Gospel Record of John John 12:12-19 Jesus is the true King, but He does not come to fulfill human expectations or earthly ambitions. He comes in humility to bring peace with God, and every person must decide whether to receive Him for who He is or reject Him because He does not fit their desires. Enthusiasm and outward praise are not enough, because a heart that seeks Him only for personal gain will turn away when His purpose leads through sacrifice, while genuine faith recognizes His authority and submits to Him as Lord.

Jesus, Conquering Deliverer // Luke 4:1-44 by Tri-State Community Church
Has God forgotten us? Does He even exist? When life hurts, when it feels like nothing is going right, these are the questions that come to mind. We pray for God to rescue us, to change our circumstances, to take the pain away, to fix what is broken, to heal our hurts, but often it feels like God is doing nothing. As we begin week 1 of our series “The Deliverer”, we'll learn about the birth of Moses, and glimpse what God may be doing, even when we don't see it.
April 12th, 2026 Pastor Chad McDonald In January 2003, a young man named Terry Drier was in the water twenty hours after his boat had capsized. He gave a valiant effort at survival, although he later confessed he felt certain that he was going to die. After a long while, a helicopter located him and sent word to a ship on its way to the Persian Gulf. The name of the ship was the USS Comforter. This vessel was on its way to do battle and paused to deliver one man. They went out of their way to save one man, and there was a doctor on board who nursed him back to health. Some of you may feel as though you are treading water, and you are not sure how much longer you can hang in there. This weekend, as we turn our attention to Psalm 40, we are reminded of our Deliverer who is always hovering nearby. The God of all comfort will make sure that the comfort we need comes our way. In Christ, Pastor Chad

Today's Promise: Psalm 34:19 When life hits you with unexpected problems, it's easy to wonder where God is in the middle of it. But Psalm 34:19 gives us one of the most honest and hope-filled promises in Scripture: troubles will come, but deliverance comes from the Lord. In today's episode, we unpack the reality that following God doesn't mean a life free from difficulty. Instead, it means you're never alone in it. You'll discover three powerful ways God delivers you. Sometimes it's out of the problem, sometimes through it, and ultimately, completely in His presence. If you're walking through a hard season, this episode will remind you that your struggle is not the end of your story. God is using every affliction to strengthen your faith, build your character, and reveal Himself as your Deliverer. Remember, no matter what you're facing, God has more deliverance than you have troubles.
