Today's Promise: 1 Peter 5:6 In a world that encourages self-promotion and taking control, God presents a different path. Today's promise reminds us that true elevation comes through humility before Him. When you humble yourself, you acknowledge your dependence on God, and that is when His power starts to work in your life. Discover how humility invites God's favor and how trusting in His timing leads to genuine exaltation.

David in Psalm 145 tells us the greatness of God by declaring what he is and what he has done. By example he shows how to praise God the King. However, he goes further by speaking at the beginning of the psalm of he various ways he intents to lift up the Name of God. Listen for the various ways he is extolling God and we can join him in these actions.

The Exaltation of the Holy Cross is a Catholic Feast day that brings due attention to the Holy Cross on which our Lord and Savior achieved our reconciliation with the Father. In this Feast, we gaze upon the Cross less as an instrument of suffering and torture (while this is still certainly true), but more on the healing and reconciliation it brings.

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!
What kind of people do you invite to a dinner party? Maybe it's friends and family members. Maybe it's coworders, or people from an organization you're a part of. In today's gospel lesson, we learn the kind of people that God invites to a dinner party. He invites the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind. He invites sinners. And that means God invites you!

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!

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.

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?

Audio Bible New Testament Matthew to Apocalypse King James Version
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. Exalt ye the LORD our God, and worship at his footstool; for he is holy. ; AB church Lausanne
"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.

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.

Key Verse: Psalm 99:5 - Exalt the LORD our God; worship at his footstool! Holy is he!
Luke 14:1,7-14 Jesus teaches some ways to demonstrate humility and promises that those who humble themselves will be exalted.

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.
