Everyone knows that humility is a positive trait and pride is a negative one. So, why bother talking about what we already know? Because in spite of that knowledge, we still helplessly fall into the trap of pride. We all desire acclaim, recognition, and praise. Jesus' sharp words this week teach us that seeking exaltation in futile and fleeing ways will only result in receiving the opposite. Those who attempt to exalt themselves will eventually be humbled by God. In contrast, Jesus promises that those who leave their exaltation to God will receive honor and glory far greater than any that can be awarded in this life. Our exaltation does not need to be our responsibility, because Jesus has already made it his.

The Lord Our God Is Holy99.1 The Lord reigns; let the peoples tremble! He sits enthroned upon the cherubim; let the earth quake!2 The Lord is great in Zion; he is exalted over all the peoples.3 Let them praise your great and awesome name! Holy is he!4 The King in his might loves justice. You have established equity;you have executed justice and righteousness in Jacob.5 Exalt the Lord our God; worship at his footstool! Holy is he!6 Moses and Aaron were among his priests, Samuel also was among those who called upon his name. They called to the Lord, and he answered them.7 In the pillar of the cloud he spoke to them; they kept his testimonies and the statute that he gave them.8 O Lord our God, you answered them; you were a forgiving God to them, but an avenger of their wrongdoings.9 Exalt the Lord our God, and worship at his holy mountain; for the Lord our God is holy!

Today,we want to continue in Ephesians chapter 1. And we're kind of camping out hereon verses 7 and 8. We've talked about the blessings that we have from God theFather in the first six verses. Now verse 7-10 we see the blessings we havethrough God the Son. They both work in harmony together, each of them in theirown ministry and work giving us special spiritual blessings that we can enjoyeven today and have heaven on earth. In verse seven, we have redemption throughHis blood and the forgiveness of sins. Then in verse eight, these blessings aremade to abound toward us in all wisdom and prudence. Wetalked a little bit about this yesterday, but I want to go back to that phrase,“in all wisdom and prudence”. What is wisdom? The wise man Solomon in Proverbs4, said it this way, "Get wisdom and understanding. Do not forget norturn away from the words of my mouth. Do not forsake her and she will preserveyou. Love her and she will keep you." Wisdom is the principle thing.Therefore, get wisdom, and with all you're getting, get understanding. And thenhe gives a blessing along with it. Exalt her, and she'll promote you. She'llbring you to honor when you embrace her. She'll place on your head an ornamentof grace and a crown of glory. She will deliver to you. Ilove that, “an ornament of grace”. You'd wonder if Paul might have hadthese verses in mind when he wrote this verse that this redemption andforgiveness of sins is according to the riches of His grace that abounds towardus in all wisdom and prudence. So what is the wisdom of God? Jesus is themanifest wisdom of God. What is God's wisdom as far as you and I are concernedas we look at Scripture, as we look at life? I believe wisdom is being able tosee life from God's viewpoint, from God's perspective. And the only way we cando that is see it through the eyes of Jesus Christ. Youwant to know how He saw it? Study Jesus in the Gospels. Study all the Scripture.The Scripture reveals to us the mind, the heart, the thoughts of God. And whenwe study the Scripture, we get wisdom. We hear people say, "Don'tcriticize a person till you walk a mile in their shoes." And you shouldn'tbe critical of anyone, anyway. But my friend, the best way to understand aperson, and understand what's going on in their lives, is look at their lifethrough the perspective that God has in His word. Seethem through the eyes of God in His Word. See them through Christ. “Getwisdom. But with all that getting, get understanding”. And that brings usto the word prudence. “Toward us in all wisdom and prudence”. RememberJames said, “If you lack wisdom, ask God. He will give it to you liberally."He doesn't hold back. Ask God and He will give it to you. Why? Because He's theGod of wisdom. He knows everything. He knows about everything. He knows thepast, the present, the future, all at the same time. Unreal. Hesays, "Ask Him. He'll give you that wisdom." But you must be in His Word.You must have His Holy Spirit working in your heart. But then with that wisdom,get understanding or get prudence. The Greek word prudence is about practicalwisdom. Basically it means understanding, thoughtful. It means to berightminded, living out God's will. (We'll talk about that in the next verse). Thisleads to spiritual maturity, discerning, and living a life in harmony withGod's purpose. Andso with that wisdom, get understanding. Know how to apply it to thecircumstances and the situation that you're in. And my friend, when you dothat, you're on the road to living in harmony with God. And you'll wear a ornamentof grace on your countenance as crown of glory. You'll be exalting andglorifying Christ in everything you say and do. What a wonderful way to live.And it's available to you because it abounds through Jesus Christ today for youand me. Godbless!

Pastor Kurt gives us the word "Exalt" to study from Luke 14...did he say "skibbidi"?
George Diwakar - Why worship the LORD in a worship-saturated world? What sets him apart from every other object of praise? Psalm 99 tells us two things: his just rule over the world and his merciful revelation to his people. Exalt him!
George Diwakar - Why worship the LORD in a worship-saturated world? What sets him apart from every other object of praise? Psalm 99 tells us two things: his just rule over the world and his merciful revelation to his people. Exalt him!
The sermon centers on the imperative to exalt Jesus Christ in witness, emphasizing boldness rooted in Scripture and a clear understanding of his identity. Drawing from Acts chapter two, the preacher highlights Peter's example of confronting accusations with biblical reasoning, demonstrating how to articulate Jesus' divinity and the promise of salvation through repentance and faith. The message underscores the importance of leaning on God's word, recognizing Jesus as the cornerstone of faith, and sharing the gospel with conviction, ultimately calling listeners to a personal commitment to Christ and assurance of eternal life.
“Ha hecho en mí cosas el que todo lo puede. Exaltó a los humildes.”Del santo Evangelio según san Lucas: 1, 39-56Lectura y reflexión: Pbro. Emanuel Álvarez Ceja.
It's amazing how our family was discovering, step by step, God's plan for our lives. Thomas and I, came to Germany with one purpose, to share the gospel of Christ, that we had come to know in California. Our lives were transformed by Jesus, and we wanted nothing more than to share those truths. We were always a part of a team that worked together on each project at hand. In a recent episode, I talked about the international folk dancers, that inspired us, with a desire to replicate their example. Many countries were represented through their traditional music, costumes and flags. Dancers and musicians of all ages, including children, brought so much joy tothe audience. At home that evening Thomas and I, talked about the idea of God's people being visible to the world, rather than only gathering, within the walls of the church buildings. We decided to start praying about how we could create something like this.

We are delighted to welcome Alexander Dunlap back to the EXALT podcast for a conversation about his latest work. Xander has been looking at rare earth element mining, lithium mining, and solar panel lifecycles in the United States. Right now, he is writing up the research on the disposal and decommissioning of solar panels, which is where our conversation kicks off. Xander found that even in highly regulated states it is more economically efficient to just landfill them rather than recycle them (even if they would be technically recyclable). Low carbon technologies are being used in a lot of insidious ways in industrial and capitalist societies. We need to really reflect on what renewability really means and we need to think hard as researchers before we blindly engage with public relations words (i.e. sustainability, renewability). Check out the Justice in Renewable Energy Supply Chains projects investigating the life cycle of solar panels on the ground, where you can find more information, articles and policy briefs:https://www.bu.edu/igs/research/projects/justice-in-renewable-energy-supply-chains/ If you would like to check out Xander's other episodes, here are the direct links:How is this system killing us and what can we do? https://podcasts.apple.com/fi/podcast/xander-dunlap-how-is-this-system-killing-us-and-what-can-we-do/id1499621252?i=1000650809357 Until You Become Ungovernable, Why Would Anyone Listen to You? https://podcasts.apple.com/fi/podcast/alexander-dunlap-until-you-become-ungovernable-why/id1499621252?i=1000587449856 Is "green energy" really that green (and is it better called "fossil fuel plus")? https://podcasts.apple.com/fi/podcast/alexander-dunlap-is-green-energy-really-that-green/id1499621252?i=1000506999251 Check out Xander's upcoming talk (26 Aug. 2025, 14:00-16:00) at University of Copenhagen https://cape.ku.dk/eng/calendar/2025/exploring-the-life-of-solar-panels/ Want to learn more about Xander's work?

143 : Psalms 99 1. The LORD reigneth; let the people tremble: he sitteth between the cherubims; let the earth be moved. 2. The LORD is great in Zion; and he is high above all the people. 3. Let them praise thy great and terrible name; for it is holy. 4. The king's strength also loveth judgment; thou dost establish equity, thou executest judgment and righteousness in Jacob. 5.

As Salam Aleykoum wa Rahmatullah girls☁️On se retrouve pour un épisode en lien avec celui de la semaine dernière sur les duaas. Aujourd'hui, je vous parle des épreuves et je vous donne, d'après mon expérience, les clés pour les surmonter de la meilleure des façons.Les hadiths et sourates cités dans cet épisode:D'après Oum Salama (qu'Allah l'agrée), le Prophète (que la prière d'Allah et Son salut soient sur lui) a dit: « Allah n'a pas éprouvé par un malheur un serviteur qui est sur une voie qu'Il déteste (1) sans qu'Il ne fasse que ce malheur soit pour lui une expiation et une purification (2).Ceci tant que la personne ne dit pas que ce malheur qui l'a touché provient d'un autre qu'Allah ou qu'il n'invoque pas un autre qu'Allah pour enlever ce malheur (3) ».(Rapporté par Ibn Abi Dounya et authentifié par Cheikh Albani dans la Silsila Sahiha n°2500)Très certainement, Nous vous éprouverons par un peu de peur, de faim et de diminution de biens, de personnes et de fruits. Et fais la bonne annonce aux endurants, qui disent, quand un malheur les atteint : "Certes nous sommes à Allah, et c'est à Lui que nous retournerons".Sourate Al Baqarah versets 155-156Dans un hadith rapporté par Al Boukhari, d'après Abu Hourayrah, qu'Allah l'agrée, le Prophète et Messager d'Allah (que la prière d'Allah et Son salut soient sur lui) a dit :« Celui à qui Allah veut du bien, Il l'éprouve. »Dans un autre hadith rapporté par At-Tirmidhî et authentifié par Cheikh Al Albani, le Messager d'Allah, SallaLlahu ‘alayhi wa salam, a dit :« Quand Allah veut du bien à Son serviteur, Il accélère son châtiment ici-bas. Et quand Il veut du mal à Son serviteur, Il retient le châtiment de son péché jusqu'à ce qu'il en reçoive sa punition entière le Jour de la résurrection. »Dans un hadith prophétique authentique rapporté par Ibn Mâjah, d'après Anas ibn Mâlik, qu'Allah l'agrée, le Prophète ﷺ a dit :« La grandeur de la récompense est proportionnelle à la grandeur de l'épreuve. Et lorsque Allah, Exalté soit-Il, aime un groupe de personnes, Il les éprouve. Quiconque, par conséquent, est satisfait [du décret d'Allah] aura la satisfaction d'Allah en retour. Et quiconque en est mécontent subira la colère d'Allah. »Mais seuls réfléchissent bien ceux qui sont doués d'intelligence : ceux qui remplissent leur engagement envers Allah et ne violent pas le pacte, qui unissent ce qu'Allah a commandé d'unir, qui redoutent leur Seigneur et craignent une malheureuse reddition de compte, et qui font preuve de sabr dans la recherche de l'agrément d'Allah, accomplissent la salât et dépensent (dans le bien), en secret et en public, de ce que Nous leur avons attribué, et repoussent le mal par le bien. A ceux-là, la bonne demeure finale.Sourate Ar ra'ad versets 19-22J'espère que cet épisode vous sera bénéfique Bi idnillah et j'attends vos retours avec impatience.
"Holiness" can seem distant to us. We know God is holy, but how does it impact daily life? Psalm 99 shows the connection. It praises God for being holy, or "set apart." He's unique, higher than all beings. While we often rightly relate sinlessness with "holy", Psalm 99 points out that God is holy in greatness, justice, and forgiveness. He's set apart from all others. So, He deserves our praise.

Morning Worship Sermon with Rev. Bud Hance Scripture reference Proverbs 4:1-9 Security In Wisdom 1 Hear, my children, the instruction of a father, And give attention to know understanding; 2 For I give you good doctrine: Do not forsake my law. 3 When I was my father's son, Tender and the only one in the sight of my mother, 4 He also taught me, and said to me: “Let your heart retain my words; Keep my commands, and live. 5 Get wisdom! Get understanding! Do not forget, nor turn away from the words of my mouth. 6 Do not forsake her, and she will preserve you; Love her, and she will keep you. 7 Wisdom is the principal thing; Therefore get wisdom. And in all your getting, get understanding. 8 Exalt her, and she will promote you; She will bring you honor, when you embrace her. 9 She will place on your head an ornament of grace; A crown of glory she will deliver to you.”

This is message 15 in The Power of God's Name Psalm 34:1-22 Psalm 34 is David's song of praise birthed from desperation and deliverance. In it, he calls God's people to exalt the Lord's name at all times—because of His faithfulness, His provision, His peace, and His nearness in our brokenness. David's testimony is not theoretical; it flows from personal rescue and real trust. Whether in caves or triumphs, the call remains: lift high the name of the Lord, for He alone is worthy, and He never forsakes His own.

Title: Practicing the Way — The Practice of ScriptureMain Texts: Romans 12:2; Matthew 7:24–29Big Idea: The practice of Scripture is our starting place. It's how we build a foundation strong enough to withstand life's storms.Key Points:Three Forces That Shape UsThe stories we believeThe habits we buildThe relationships we keepBut the stories we believe shape us most—and the enemy uses lies to distort them.The Castle of the Mind (Illustration)A warrior named Julian guards a castle built on truth. But lies sneak in through neglected cracks.Truth (Scripture) restores clarity and strength. We must renew our minds daily with the Book of Light.Formation Is Always HappeningWhether we realize it or not, we're always being formed—by culture, media, success, pain, etc.Romans 12:2 — Don't conform, be transformed by renewing your mind.Jesus as Rabbi: Truth-TellerA rabbi's job was to reveal truth, not just inform minds but capture hearts.Scripture isn't just information—it's formation.Truth vs. Cultural LiesPaganism: Many gods → The Lord is One (Mark 12:29)Moral relativism: Multiple truths → Jesus is the TruthSocial hierarchy: Exalt self → Serve and be humbledSelf-centeredness: You are not the center → Jesus must bePutting Truth into PracticeMatthew 7:24–29 — Don't just hear the Word—practice it.Storms don't create a foundation; they reveal it.Truth must become lifestyle: worship, obedience, sacrifice.Final Challenge:Start where you are. Let Scripture reshape the story you believe—then live it out.

In Milkweed and Honey Cake: A Memoir in Ritual Moments, Wendy A. Horwitz shares essays about celebration, loss, change, and the best way to open a pomegranate.Holidays delight – and disappoint. A couple marrying in the pandemic finds a surprise after a rainstorm, and a topsy-turvy search for a gravestone honors her ancestors. When a graduation is cancelled, Horwitz serves pomp and circumstance on the front porch, and through the shifting seasons of a life, amid the scramble of pet guinea pigs and birthday parties, her children add wonder and comedy to tradition.Horwitz explores how ritual can exalt ordinary moments and frame the extraordinary - a blue heron, an old cupboard's scent, and the lingering feel of an engagement ring long gone prompt reflections laced with yearning and humor. Guiding us along a wooded path, to the kitchen table, in a messy garden, and under a tent reverberating with song, she traces the boundaries of ritual, considering what we do when ritual falls short, and how we might adapt to each other's practices. And when the wider world seems broken, new rituals provide hope.Lyrical and funny, thought-provoking and deeply moving, Milkweed and Honey Cake is at once a meditation on our desire for meaning and the story of a woman's lifelong efforts to create it.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

Psalm 57Be merciful to me, O God, be merciful,for I have taken refuge in you; *in the shadow of your wings will I take refugeuntil this time of trouble has gone by.I will call upon the Most High God, *the God who maintains my cause.He will send from heaven and save me;he will confound those who trample upon me; *God will send forth his love and his faithfulness.I lie in the midst of lions that devour the people; *their teeth are spears and arrows,their tongue a sharp sword.They have laid a net for my feet,and I am bowed low; *they have dug a pit before me,but have fallen into it themselves.Exalt yourself above the heavens, O God, *and your glory over all the earth.My heart is firmly fixed, O God, my heart is fixed; *I will sing and make melody.Wake up, my spirit;awake, lute and harp; *I myself will waken the dawn.I will confess you among the peoples, O Lord; *I will sing praise to you among the nations.For your loving-kindness is greater than the heavens, *and your faithfulness reaches to the clouds.Exalt yourself above the heavens, O God, *and your glory over all the earth. Psalm 58Do you indeed decree righteousness, you rulers? *do you judge the peoples with equity?No; you devise evil in your hearts, *and your hands deal out violence in the land.The wicked are perverse from the womb; *liars go astray from their birth.They are as venomous as a serpent, *they are like the deaf adder which stops its ears,Which does not heed the voice of the charmer, *no matter how skillful his charming.O God, break their teeth in their mouths; *pull the fangs of the young lions, O Lord.Let them vanish like water that runs off; *let them wither like trodden grass.Let them be like the snail that melts away, *like a stillborn child that never sees the sun.Before they bear fruit, let them be cut down like a brier; *like thorns and thistles let them be swept away.The righteous will be glad when they see the vengeance; *they will bathe their feet in the blood of the wicked.And they will say,“Surely, there is a reward for the righteous; *surely, there is a God who rules in the earth.” Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit: *as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be forever. Amen. LessonsIsa. 51:17-23Rouse yourself, rouse yourself! Stand up, O Jerusalem, you who have drunk at the hand of the Lord the cup of his wrath, who have drunk to the dregs the bowl of staggering. There is no one to guide her among all the children she has borne; there is no one to take her by the hand among all the children she has brought up. These two things have befallen you-- who will grieve with you?-- devastation and destruction, famine and sword-- who will comfort you? Your children have fainted, they lie at the head of every street like an antelope in a net; they are full of the wrath of the Lord, the rebuke of your God. Therefore hear this, you who are wounded, who are drunk, but not with wine: Thus says your Sovereign, the Lord, your God who pleads the cause of his people: See, I have taken from your hand the cup of staggering; you shall drink no more from the bowl of my wrath. And I will put it into the hand of your tormentors, who have said to you, "Bow down, that we may walk on you" and you have made your back like the ground and like the street for them to walk on.The Word of the Lord.Thanks Be To God. Te Deum laudamusYou are God: we praise you; You are the Lord: we acclaim you; You are the eternal Father: All creation worships you. To you all angels, all the powers of heaven, Cherubim and Seraphim, sing in endless praise:Holy, holy, holy Lord, God of power and might,heaven and earth are full of your glory. The glorious company of apostles praise you. The noble fellowship of prophets praise you. The white-robed army of martyrs praise you. Throughout the world the holy Church acclaims you;Father, of majesty unbounded, your true and only Son, worthy of all worship, and the Holy Spirit, advocate and guide.You, Christ, are the king of glory, the eternal Son of the Father. When you became man to set us free you did not shun the Virgin's womb. You overcame the sting of deathand opened the kingdom of heaven to all believers. You are seated at God's right hand in glory. We believe that you will come and be our judge.Come then, Lord, and help your people, bought with the price of your own blood, and bring us with your saintsto glory everlasting. Gal. 4:1-11My point is this: heirs, as long as they are minors, are no better than slaves, though they are the owners of all the property; but they remain under guardians and trustees until the date set by the father. So with us; while we were minors, we were enslaved to the elemental spirits of the world. But when the fullness of time had come, God sent his Son, born of a woman, born under the law, in order to redeem those who were under the law, so that we might receive adoption as children. And because you are children, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying, "Abba! Father!" So you are no longer a slave but a child, and if a child then also an heir, through God. Formerly, when you did not know God, you were enslaved to beings that by nature are not gods. Now, however, that you have come to know God, or rather to be known by God, how can you turn back again to the weak and beggarly elemental spirits? How can you want to be enslaved to them again? You are observing special days, and months, and seasons, and years. I am afraid that my work for you may have been wasted.The Word of the Lord.Thanks Be To God. Mark 7:24-37From there he set out and went away to the region of Tyre. He entered a house and did not want anyone to know he was there. Yet he could not escape notice, but a woman whose little daughter had an unclean spirit immediately heard about him, and she came and bowed down at his feet. Now the woman was a Gentile, of Syrophoenician origin. She begged him to cast the demon out of her daughter. He said to her, "Let the children be fed first, for it is not fair to take the children's food and throw it to the dogs." But she answered him, "Sir, even the dogs under the table eat the children's crumbs." Then he said to her, "For saying that, you may go-- the demon has left your daughter." So she went home, found the child lying on the bed, and the demon gone. Then he returned from the region of Tyre, and went by way of Sidon towards the Sea of Galilee, in the region of the Decapolis. They brought to him a deaf man who had an impediment in his speech; and they begged him to lay his hand on him. He took him aside in private, away from the crowd, and put his fingers into his ears, and he spat and touched his tongue. Then looking up to heaven, he sighed and said to him, "Ephphatha," that is, "Be opened." And immediately his ears were opened, his tongue was released, and he spoke plainly. Then Jesus ordered them to tell no one; but the more he ordered them, the more zealously they proclaimed it. They were astounded beyond measure, saying, "He has done everything well; he even makes the deaf to hear and the mute to speak."The Word of the Lord.Thanks Be To God. Benedictus Dominus DeusBlessed be the Lord, the God of Israel; * he has come to his people and set them free.He has raised up for us a mighty savior, * born of the house of his servant David.Through his holy prophets he promised of old, that he would save us from our enemies, * from the hands of all who hate us. He promised to show mercy to our fathers * and to remember his holy covenant. This was the oath he swore to our father Abraham, * to set us free from the hands of our enemies, Free to worship him without fear, * holy and righteous in his sight all the days of our life.You, my child, shall be called the prophet of the Most High, * for you will go before the Lord to prepare his way, To give his people knowledge of salvation * by the forgiveness of their sins.In the tender compassion of our God * the dawn from on high shall break upon us, To shine on those who dwell in darkness and the shadow of death, * and to guide our feet into the way of peace.Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit:as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ever. Amen. The Apostles CreedI believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth.I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord. He was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. He descended to the dead. On the third day he rose again. He ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again to judge the living and the dead.I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting.
