The ark of the covenant sits at the heart of the tabernacle.  And the message it speaks is that an imperfect people need a pathway to a perfect God.  And God in His wisdom has provided that pathway.

Reflect on the enduring truth of God’s goodness, even amid life’s hardships. Using Psalm 27 as an anchor, this devotional reminds us that our outward circumstances do not determine the inward state of our hearts. By recalling God’s faithfulness, seeking intimacy with Him, and remembering His past provision, we can remain confident in His goodness today, shifting perspective from what seems lacking to what God has already provided. Highlights Anchor Scripture: Psalm 27 provides comfort and reassurance amid trials. Confidence in God: Trusting God’s goodness despite external challenges renews hope. God’s Presence: He never leaves or forsakes His children (Deut. 31:6, Isa. 41:10). Active Remembrance: Reflecting on personal experiences of God’s care strengthens faith. Encouragement through Music: Songs like The Goodness of God by Bethel Music can reinforce God’s faithfulness. Intersecting Faith & Life Life inevitably brings struggle and hardship, but God’s presence never wavers. We can cultivate hope and courage by returning to anchor scriptures, recalling God’s past faithfulness, and focusing on His goodness rather than current difficulties. Intentionally meditating on His promises and using tools like Scripture or worship music can encourage a steadfast heart even during storms. This episode is sponsored by Trinity Debt Management.

Conner Bible Reading:“I remain confident of this: I will see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.” - Psalm 27:13 (NIV) Do you have an anchor scripture or favorite passage of the Bible that you regularly return to for comfort or encouragement? I have a few, but one of my favorites is Psalm 27. I have read and reread this psalm more times than I can count. I even handwrote the full psalm in my journal because I am a writer and writers best retain information through the physical act of writing (or typing) and reading. Regardless of how I have interacted with the text, I just can’t seem to get away from this particular passage. It’s like I somehow knew these words would need to be forever etched into my heart. Psalm 27 was written by David during one of his many flights from those who sought to take his life. Though it looked as if the deck was completely stacked against him, David determined to put his faith in the Lord for refuge and rescue. Many of the declarations he makes in this narrative are bold refutes against the temptation to despair. In verse three, he states, “though an army besiege me, my heart will not fear; though war break out against me, even then I will be confident.” He continues on in verse eight to say, “My heart says of you, ‘Seek his face!’ Your face, LORD, I will seek.” Ultimately, what David desired most was intimacy and companionship with the Lord, for that really is the only place where we can obtain true and lasting comfort. David understood that his outward circumstances did not have to dictate the inward position of his heart. The goodness of God remained even if it looked like everything around him was falling apart. No matter your age, occupation, or geographic location, like David, life has likely thrown you some hard knocks. Unfortunately, disappointments and hardships are guaranteed in this fallen world. No one is immune. In fact, the Bible actually promises that we will encounter struggle. Jesus said, “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world” (John 16:33, NIV). The good news is that we are not alone in our trials. The Bible affirms that God is present and helping us through our circumstances. Our Heavenly Father promises He will never leave or forsake us (Deut. 31:6), He is close to those who call upon Him (Psalm 145:18), He will draw near to us when we draw near to Him (James 4:8), and He will help us and uphold us with his righteous right hand (Isa. 41:10). You can be confident that God has not left you alone in the difficulties or challenges you are facing. Sometimes, our souls just need to be reminded of God's unmovable, unfailing love. In Psalm 27, David refuted the lie of defeat by declaring who God is, all He had already done, and the Biblical promises He has made to those who love Him. Reciting these truths and recalling times when you have personally witnessed God’s care and provision in your life helps shift your perspective from what seems to be lacking to what has been provided. In light of this fresh perspective, hope can be renewed. And it is here, in this place of confident assurance in Him, that you can look out beyond the momentary affliction you are facing and say: No matter what is going on… “I remain confident of this: I will see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.” - Psalm 27:13 (NIV) Intersecting Faith & Life: Do you have an anchor scripture you turn to again and again in times of trouble? If so, when was the last time you recited it? One of the best ways to stir up our souls is through song. Ultimately, the psalms penned by David were meant to be sung. Music has such an incredible ability to soothe and encourage our blistered or discouraged hearts. One song that ministers to me when I need to be reminded of the abundance in my life rather than the lack is The Goodness of God by Bethel Music and Jenn Johnson. Take some time to look up the lyrics or listen to this song today. May it remind you of God’s love, faithfulness, and goodness present in your life.

Dans l'Évangile selon Matthieu 28:16-20, Jésus ne fait pas une suggestion… Il donne un mandat : Allez.Comme le peuple d'Israël à Horeb dans Deutéronome 1:6-8, nous pouvons vivre des expériences extraordinaires avec Dieu, sans comprendre que ce n'est pas la destination finale. Horeb était un lieu de révélation, mais la promesse était ailleurs.Aller signifie :• Appliquer ce que nous avons appris,• Manifester ce que nous avons reçu,• Témoigner de ce que nous avons vu, ...À l'image de Caleb dans Livre de Josué 14:12-15, nous sommes appelés à réclamer nos montagnes, même si des géants s'y trouvent. Les obstacles, les oppositions, les systèmes contraires ne doivent pas nous immobiliser.Le mandat est donné à ceux qui ont atteint la maturité spirituelle. Soutenez-nous sur PayPal !

In this continuation of the "Exodus" series, the sermon shifts focus to the "wilderness season." While the Book of Exodus spends 15 chapters on the exciting plagues and deliverance, it dedicates 100 chapters to the slow, difficult wandering in the wilderness. This reflects our spiritual reality: most of the Christian life is lived in the "in-between" time—after our deliverance but before the Promised Land. Deuteronomy 8 answers the crucial question: Why does God lead us into the wilderness?Scripture ReferencesDeuteronomy 8:2-5: God's purpose for the wilderness: to humble, test, and teach that man does not live on bread alone.2 Corinthians 12:7-9: Paul's "thorn in the flesh," given to keep him from becoming conceited.James 4:6: "God opposes the proud but shows favor to the humble."Philippians 2:3-4: "In humility value others above yourselves."Romans 12:15-16: Rejoice with those who rejoice; do not be proud.Matthew 4:1-4: Jesus in the wilderness, quoting Deuteronomy 8 to defeat the enemy.John 6:35: Jesus declares, "I am the bread of life."Key PointsObjective 1: Teaching Us Humility (Deuteronomy 8:2) God uses the wilderness to humble us. We often want humility in others, but resist the process in ourselves. God values humility so highly that He allowed Paul to endure a "messenger of Satan" to produce it (2 Cor. 12).What Humility is NOT: It is not timidity, a laid-back personality, or self-deprecation.What Humility IS: It is agreeing with God's truth about yourself—you are a sinner, but you are also deeply loved and valued. It is the willingness to serve others, knowing your own limits, and celebrating the successes of others without envy. As C.S. Lewis said, humility is not thinking less of yourself, it's thinking of yourself less.Objective 2: Teaching Us to Live on the Word (Deuteronomy 8:3) The lesson of the manna wasn't just about physical provision; it was a test of reliance. God brought Israel into a place of need to teach them to depend on His Word. Today, our daily habits reveal our true reliance. If the first thing we do in the morning is check our phones, our underlying belief is that we need the world's input more than God's. The wilderness exposes what we truly lean on.Jesus is the True Manna Jesus modeled this dependence perfectly. When He was hungry in the wilderness (Matthew 4), He relied on the written Word of God rather than His feelings or divine power. Ultimately, Jesus is the "Bread of Life" (John 6). The manna sustained the Israelites perfectly—their feet didn't even swell from malnutrition (Deut 8:4). This points to Jesus: He is the complete and perfect sustenance for our souls.ConclusionThe wilderness is not a mistake; it is God's training ground. He brings us into places of lack not to punish us, but to strip away our pride and our false dependencies. As we enter this season of a digital fast, it is an opportunity to silence the noise, humble ourselves, and rediscover that Jesus—the Word made flesh—is the only Bread that truly satisfies.Calls to ActionCheck Your Morning Habit: Tomorrow morning, before checking your phone, spend the first few minutes in the Word of God or in prayer.Evaluate Your Humility: Are you able to celebrate a friend's success without feeling envious? Ask God to reveal any hidden pride.Prepare for the Digital Fast: Begin thinking about how you will replace screen time with intentional time in Scripture and prayer.

A look at Deut. 1`5

At the heart of Romans 10 lies one of the most liberating truths in all of Scripture: salvation is not a distant prize we must climb mountains to reach, but a gift placed within arm's reach. This passage dismantles the exhausting treadmill of performance-based righteousness and reveals that God is not far off, demanding we ascend to heaven or descend into the abyss to find Him. Instead, He came to us. The message explores how we've often overcomplicated what God made beautifully simple—that if we confess with our mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in our heart that God raised Him from the dead, we will be saved. This isn't about checking boxes or accumulating enough church attendance or service hours. It's about genuine faith that wells up from within and spills out in confession. The distinction between righteousness based on law versus righteousness based on faith becomes crystal clear: one leads to endless emptiness, the other to complete fulfillment. For those of us striving to earn what has already been freely given, this message offers profound relief. For those who have believed but never publicly confessed, it issues a gentle but urgent invitation. And for all of us, it reminds us that the word is near—in our mouths and in our hearts—not because we've worked hard enough, but because God, in His mercy, brought it to us.**Sermon Notes – Romans 10:5–15 – “The Message of Salvation to All”**---### 1. Righteousness Based on the Law → Emptiness (vv.5; Lev. 18:5; James 2:10)- Paul quotes Moses (Lev. 18:5): “The person who does the commandments shall live by them.”- To be righteous by law you must keep *all* of it, perfectly.- The law was never meant to *save* but to: - Reveal God's standard. - Expose our sin and inability. - Point to our need for a Savior.- When we base our standing with God on works (church attendance, serving, morality), it produces: - Constant insecurity. - Pride if we think we're doing well; despair if we know we're not.- Ephesians 2:4–9: We are saved by grace through faith, *not* works, so no one may boast.---### 2. Righteousness Based on Faith → Fulfillment (vv.6–8; Deut. 30:11–14)- Paul uses Deut. 30 to say: the word is *near* you—in your mouth and heart.- We don't “ascend to heaven” or “descend to the abyss” to reach Christ: - We can't climb up to God. - God came down to us in Christ.- God is not distant: - “The Lord is near to all who call on him” (Ps. 145:18). - “Near to the brokenhearted” (Ps. 34:18).- True fulfillment is not in success, family, money, or “the American dream,” but in trusting Christ and His finished work.---### 3. How We Are Saved (vv.9–13)- v.9–10:   - Confess with your mouth that **Jesus is Lord**.   - Believe in your heart that **God raised Him from the dead**.   - You *will* be saved.- Believe → justified.   Confess → saved (public identification with Christ).- This is simple, but not superficial: - Acknowledge your sin (Rom. 3:23). - Believe in Christ's death and resurrection. - Confess Him openly (baptism is a commanded, public expression—but not what saves).- Luke 23 thief on the cross: - No time for works or rituals. - Belief and confession → “Today you will be with me in paradise.”- v.11–13: “Everyone who believes in him will not be put to shame… Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” - No distinction: Jew/Greek. Same Lord. Same way of salvation.---### 4. Sent to Share (vv.13–15)- v.14–15: How will they call, believe, or hear without someone preaching? - “Preaching” here is not just pastors—every believer bears witness.- God raises up future pastors, missionaries, disciple-makers from each generation.- The church must: - Invest in the next generation. - Refuse to idolize methods or traditions; cling to the unchanging gospel.---## Practical Applications1. **Stop Trying to Earn It**  - Identify where you still try to “pay God back” with works.  - Repent of self-righteousness; rest in grace.2. **Examine: Have You Both Believed and Confessed?**  - Have you trusted Christ personally?  - Have you ever clearly told others or been baptized as a believer? If not, take that step.3. **Lean Into God's Nearness**  - When He feels distant, preach Deut. 30:14; Ps. 34:18 to yourself.  - Bring your brokenness honestly before Him.4. **Own Your Mission Field**  - Where you live, work, and play is your assignment.  - This week: intentionally share your story or an aspect of the gospel with one person.5. **Invest in the Next Generation**  - Pray for and encourage students and kids.  - Consider serving in ministries that disciple them.---## Discussion Questions1. Where have you personally tried to base your righteousness on “law” or performance? What fruit did that produce?2. How does knowing God is *near* (Deut. 30; Psalms) change how you handle seasons when He *feels* far?3. Have you both believed in your heart and confessed with your mouth that Jesus is Lord? What did/does that confession look like?4. Why is it vital that the church adapt methods (but not the message) to reach the next generation?5. Who in your life “cannot hear” unless you speak? What's one concrete step you can take this week to share Christ with them?

A sermon from Deuteronomy 34 on the death of Moses—focusing not only on Moses' final moments, but on how he lived in light of a pending, certain death. The message traces the context of Moses' exclusion from the Promised Land (Numbers 20), the seriousness of sin as a denial of God's holiness, and the reality that forgiven sin can still carry temporal consequences. It then highlights Moses' steady faith after God's firm "no" (Deut. 3), showing how true reward is ultimately found not in earthly blessings but in "seeing Him who is invisible" (Heb. 11). The sermon closes by emphasizing God's sovereignty over life and death, the right place of grief, and the believer's hope of final resurrection and seeing Christ face to face.

He reveals that the true heart of God found in the laws about just recompense is oriented toward generosity, mutual dignity, and quiet boldness. And Jesus not only taught about this revolutionarily tender heart, He fully embodied it in all of his interactions--especially on the way to the cross. A sermon by Pip Craighead. [Part 9 of our series “Jesus's Sermon on the Mount: The Good Life in the Kingdom of Grace”] Questions for reflection: 1) How would you describe the purpose of the "eye for an eye" laws (such as in Ex. 21:24; Lev. 24:20; Deut. 19:21)? 2) Why are Jesus's words here so countercultural? How are they difficult? 3) Would you describe Jesus's prescription here as "passive"? Why or why not? 4) How would the world be different if everyone lived this way? 5) How did Jesus personally embody this principle in HIs own life and ministry? How does He personally embody it toward you?

February 15, 2026 - Sunday PM Sermon In this episode we open to Deuteronomy chapter 4 and hear a sermon exploring Moses as the Bible-class teacher to Israel. The speaker grounds the message in Moses' final charge (Deut. 4:1–9) and connects it to the importance of Bible teaching today, illustrating how Scripture preserves, equips, and protects God's people. We also pause to share a prayer request for Georgia Hudson and celebrate a Teacher's Appreciation Banquet featuring guest speaker Bud Woodall, who directed listeners to Jesus' example in Mark 10:13–16. Key themes covered include: the eternal value of what teachers teach (preservation, possession, protection), the transferability of truth from one generation to the next (Moses' charge to teach children and grandchildren, Paul's instruction to Timothy), and the tangibility of sound teaching (do not add to or take away God's Word; be active, balanced, and watchful in applying Scripture). Practical measures for spiritual growth are discussed — time spent studying, applying the Word, and sharing it with others. The episode mixes theology with practical encouragement and vivid illustrations — from the Jericho lesson and a gingerbread wall anecdote to sobering research from George Barna on biblical literacy — to show why Bible classrooms matter. Listeners will hear a call to renewed enthusiasm for teaching and learning, guidance for making lessons come alive, and an appeal for legacy-minded discipleship: teach faithfully so others can teach as well. Finally, the speaker issues a clear invitation: anyone needing to respond to the gospel — to believe, repent, confess, and be baptized — or to return to fellowship and prayer is invited to respond now. Expect encouragement for teachers, challenges for students, practical application points, and heartfelt pastoral care in this episode.   Handout:   I.

February 4, 2026 - Wednesday PM Bible Class This episode is a recorded Deuteronomy class that walks listeners through some of the Old Testament laws that often seem strange or troubling to modern readers. Andy frames the laws in their ancient cultural and covenantal context, explaining the law's purposes: forming Israel's identity, convicting of sin, and pointing forward to Christ. The session includes audience Q&A and brief classroom interaction rather than external guests. Key laws discussed include levirate (kinsman-redeemer) marriage (Deut. 25) with references to Judah and Tamar and Ruth and Naomi, showing how the rule preserved family lines and protected vulnerable widows. The lecture then examines sexual laws in Deut. 22 (adultery, betrothal, and distinctions between city and countryside cases), clarifying differences between consensual acts and rape, and how the law protected victims. Other topics covered: the treatment of female captives in wartime (Deut. 21:10–14) contrasted with brutal ancient practices to show a more humane standard; the law on a stubborn and rebellious son (Deut. 21:18–21), explained as addressing violent, destructive behavior rather than ordinary teen disobedience; and practical-safety rules like building a parapet on roofs. The instructor also addresses the troubling command to destroy certain Canaanite cities, offering context about their persistent wickedness and the aim of removing corrupting influences. The class ties the Old Testament laws to New Testament teaching: the law as a tutor to Christ, examples pointing to God's character, and how Jesus' interactions (e.g., the woman caught in adultery) reveal the law's intent and mercy. The episode closes with pastoral application—God's laws often sought to protect the powerless, and followers are called to reflect that compassion today—along with encouragement to consider ancient context before judging Old Testament commandments.   Duration 43:57

A look at Deut. 14

Deut. 13:1–5 1 Kgs 12:25–33 Mark 13:9–13 2 Tim. 4:1–5  Are there such things as false and true churches, and is there a way to tell the difference? When we open Scripture, we see three things prioritized in Christ's assembly: the preaching of the gospel, the administration of the sacraments, and church discipline.

Epstein Files, Occult Darkness, Prophetic Counterfeits, and the Coming Isaac Movement | KIB 518 Kingdom Intelligence Briefing Description  In Kingdom Intelligence Briefing Episode 518, Dr. Michael and Mary Lou Lake address why the growing exposure of evil—especially surrounding the Epstein scandal and systemic corruption—helps the Body of Messiah understand the seriousness of Mystery Babylon and the coming realities described in Revelation. They also warn believers to move slowly when engaging disturbing material, to stay anchored in Scripture, and to avoid becoming spiritually destabilized by darkness-focused "research." Dr. Lake emphasizes a necessary Word + Spirit balance—because when believers abandon Scripture in favor of experiences, visions, or "prophetic spectacle," they become vulnerable to deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons (1 Timothy 4). The episode tackles: why Revelation's judgments are righteous in light of hidden, institutional evil the danger of "Christianized" occult practices (e.g., astral projection rebranded as "getting in the spirit") how God tests His people through signs and wonders (Deuteronomy 13) why much of the modern prophetic movement shows Gnostic-like patterns R.T. Kendall's warning that the charismatic movement became an "Ishmael," and that an "Isaac" is coming—greater, purified, and grounded in truth encouragement for believers waiting on prophetic words: God gives the target, then transforms us to walk in it Prayer: for victims to receive justice and healing, for the Church to regain biblical discernment, and for God to release the coming "Isaac" move of God—marked by holiness, truth, and the presence of the Spirit. ➡️ Stay informed and empowered: www.KingdomIntelligenceBriefing.com

Nota el sentido de la palabra “cabeza” en los siguientes textos: • Moisés escogió “varones de virtud de entre todo Israel, y los puso por jefes (literalmente “cabezas”) sobre el pueblo, sobre mil, sobre cien, sobre cincuenta y sobre diez” (Éxo. 18:25).• “Los jefes (literalmente “cabezas”) de la congregación” (Núm. 31:26).• Dios pondría a Israel “por cabeza y no por cola” si le obedecían (Deut. 28:13).• “Porque la cabeza de Siria es Damasco, y la cabeza de Damasco, Rezín” (Isa. 7:8)• “Y los hijos de Judá y de Israel […] levantarán para sí un jefe (literalmente “cabeza”)” (Ose. 1:11).• “Jefes (literalmente “cabezas”) de la casa de Jacob, y capitanes de la casa de Israel” (Miq. 3:9).• “Cristo es la cabeza de todo hombre” (1 Cor. 11:3). Por lo tanto, Cristo, como cabeza de la iglesia, provee el liderazgo, la orientación y el sustento necesarios para su unidad y crecimiento (ver Col. 2:19). Lee 1 Corintios 12:12-27. Pablo describe aquí a la iglesia como un “cuerpo”. ¿Qué otros aspectos de la iglesia son representados mediante esta metáfora? Así como el cuerpo no puede vivir sin la cabeza, la vida puede resultar mucho más difícil cuando se pierde o se lesiona una de sus partes. A menudo, no reconocemos cuán importante es algo hasta que lo perdemos. Si tuvieras que renunciar a una parte de tu cuerpo, ¿cuál elegirías? ¿Qué te dice esto acerca de cuán vital es cada persona como miembro de la iglesia? 

To the physical descendants of Jacob, Moses said, “Remember that you are a special people who belong to the Lord your God. He has chosen you for himself out of all the other people who live on the earth. He loves you as his special people” (Deut 7:6). But why did He choose them? Are they the only ones He has chosen? What would you do if you found out He is choosing others and adding them to those he has already chosen? Would you want to be chosen too? Join us in the exciting series as we unpack what Paul, the Apostle to the Gentiles, calls the Mystery of the Gospel.
