Exodus: Setting Captives Free In our sin, in His wisdom, God Makes a Way Sermon recorded March 8th, 2026 Caleb Click Lead Pastor Oak Mountain Presbyterian Church Birmingham, AL
(This podcast was previously published on May 3, 2021) Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... Romans 12:1-2 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. 2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. We who believe in God, must be diligent to cling to truth of the Bible. Therefore when we hear someone on TV speak that which is contrary to Bible, it is important for us to renew our mind to the truth from the Bible. For that which is false could go down into our heart and at some point deceive us. Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. 2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. 3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. 4 And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness. 5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness HE called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day. God created the solar system to remain in place until HE commanded otherwise. God said: Genesis 8:22 While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease. God keeps everything in place until the end of the world when God brings forth a new heaven and a new earth wherein dwelleth righteousness. God will remove us from this present earth before God destroys this current heaven and earth by fire. We know these things because the Bible tells us this, and it is the Word of God, the truth. Therefore we have an anchor for our soul whereby we can live in peace regardless of that which the people of this world say. This present heaven and earth will be destroyed by God in the last days. But God has made a provision for us, a new heaven and a new earth, and we will be removed from this earth and taken to the new heaven and new earth before this earth is destroyed by God. 2 Peter 3:10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. 11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness, 12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat? 13 Nevertheless we, according to HIS promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. 14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of HIM in peace, without spot, and blameless. We live on this earth in peace. Then at some point, God will move us off this earth and take us to the new heaven and the new earth wherein dwelleth righteousness. Because of that which is written in the Bible, The Word from God, we know these things. ***** The apostle John says: Revelation 21:1 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea. 2 And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. 3 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and HE will dwell with them, and they shall be HIS people, and God Himself shall be with them, and be their God. 4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. 5 And HE that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. *** God created for us all that we need. And when it is time, God will move us to the new heaven and new earth wherein dwelleth righteousness. Men of this present earth try to disturb us. But we who know the Bible and trust God, do not allow ourselves to be swept away by them and their imaginations. We have a solid anchor and that is the Bible which is truth. So we renew our minds to the Bible and keep ourselves in peace by God's word to us. *** This earth is currently kept in place in the solar system by God. But it is reserved there unto "fire" for the day comes when God will destroy this earth. 2 Peter 3:7 But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men. By that word of God these heavens and earth are kept in place in the solar system until the time of the end of this world when God, by HIS Word, will move the heavens and earth and destroy by fire that which we now know. But God will remove us and take us to that new heaven and new earth which God has prepared for HIS people. I Thessalonians 4:13 But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep (dead), that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. 14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with Him. 15 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent (precede/go before) them which are asleep (dead). 16 For the Lord Himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: 17 Then we which are alive and remain (on this earth) shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. These things we know because of that which is recorded for us in the Bible. Matthew 24:29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken: 30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. 31 And HE shall send HIS angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together HIS elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other. We will meet Jesus "in the air". With Jesus will be those who were dead and are now raised by Jesus. And we will all be taken to the new heaven and the new earth wherein dwelleth righteousness, to new Jerusalem, which has been created by God for HIS people. Keep your mind fixed on that which Bible says and do not fear that which man predicts, for man is not God, though man often thinks himself to be God. Romans 12:2 Be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, And live in peace as we wait for the return of Jesus. Philippians 4:6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. 7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus (The Word).

Have you ever obeyed God only to have your situation get worse? In Exodus 5, Moses confronts Pharaoh, but instead of freedom, the Israelites are met with double the work and no straw. Join us as we explore the "discouragement phase" of faith. Learn why the enemy turns up the heat right before a breakthrough and how to handle the "Why, Lord?" moments when your prayers seem to backfire.#Exodus5 #BricksWithoutStraw #FaithUnderFire #BibleStudyTamil #BroEmersonDevaraj #WayToLife #OvercomingDiscouragement #PharaohsTactics #ExodusSeries
Just days after their miraculous escape from Egypt, the Israelites found themselves trapped with Pharaoh's army closing in behind them and the Red Sea blocking their path ahead. Fear replaced celebration, and freedom suddenly felt fragile. But in that impossible moment, God revealed once again who He is: the One who fights for His people and makes a way where there is no way. As the waters parted and they walked through on dry ground, God didn't offer a partial rescue; He delivered them completely. This dramatic scene reminds us that when we feel surrounded and stuck, the same God still works in ways we cannot see.

(This podcast was previously published on April 16, 2021) Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... After we are born again by the Spirit of God, God seals us with HIS Spirit, and HIS Holy Spirit lives in us to show us the will of God as we continue in this present life. Ephesians 1:13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in Whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, Jesus says: John 14:26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in MY name, HE shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. He brings to our mind scriptures and concepts to show us the way of God as we deal with our present decisions in this life. John 16:13 Howbeit when HE, the Spirit of truth, is come, HE will guide you into all truth: for HE shall not speak of Himself; but whatsoever HE shall hear, that shall HE speak: and HE will shew you things to come. The Holy Spirit lives inside each believer and HE is always with us to help us in the ways of God. I Corinthians 3:16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? The Holy Spirit of truth is a great help to us and a great comforter and assurance, especially in times of change. Often even before the change, God prepares us for the change by giving us information from the Holy Spirit to show us things to come. This Podcast tells of such a change and the ways God prepared me by HIS Spirit. ***** I lived many years alone, by myself, in a house in Texas. In 2018, I could still drive my car and go to grocery store and prepare my meals. But I began feeling that I no longer wanted to live alone. I had a large house in Texas, but I began to desire having a smaller living space with fewer responsibilities. On December 6, 2018, I fell at my house in Texas. As the ambulance workers rolled me past the front door of my house, the Holy Spirit brought to my mind the following information. "You'll never see this house again." I knew immediately this was information from God. It did not trouble me at all. I knew God had another plan for me and I was happy to go the way of God for I had experience with God and knew this would be a better way to live. I put my house in Texas up for sale even while I was in the hospital. At that time, I didn't know where I would be going but I believed I would never see the Texas house again. I had no concern at all. A few times in the months before I fell, I thought of moving to Colorado Springs. One of our church women lives there and we work together on the church blog and ministry books, and I thought it would be good to live where she lives, in the same city. (I suspect it was God planting this in my mind to cause me to go in peace when the plan unfolded in the next few months.) John 13:16 Jesus says: Howbeit when HE, the Spirit of truth, is come, HE will guide you into all truth: for HE shall not speak of Himself; but whatsoever HE shall hear, that shall HE speak: and HE will shew you things to come. (God was guiding me step by step into all truth and God was showing me things to come.) During the 2 1/2 months in the rehabilitation hospital in Texas, the plan unfolded for me to move to Colorado Springs and to live in the home of Pam Padgett, a member of the body of Christ. Because of all those things put into my heart by God, I had no doubt at all about this plan. God prepared me for a very big change, and it was really good, and worked out great! I don't think it would have been as easy without the work of the Holy Spirit in showing me step by step the way of God for me. The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of Truth and the comforter to the people of God. And HE shows us the will of God and that is all that really matters. If we know this is the will of God for us, we go forth with great assurance. Isaiah 55 8 For MY thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways MY ways, saith the LORD. 9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are MY ways higher than your ways, and MY thoughts than your thoughts. 10 For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater: 11 So shall MY word be that goeth forth out of MY mouth: it shall not return unto ME void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it. 12 For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands. 13 Instead of the thorn shall come up the fir tree, and instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle tree: and it shall be to the LORD for a name, for an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off.

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20251218dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion The desert and the parched land will be glad; the wilderness will rejoice and blossom. Like the crocus, it will burst into bloom; it will rejoice greatly and shout for joy. The glory of Lebanon will be given to it, the splendor of Carmel and Sharon; they will see the glory of the Lord, the splendor of our God. Isaiah 35:1-2 God Makes the Desert Bloom In northern Chile, along the Pacific coast, lies one of the driest places on earth. Known as the Atacama, it sometimes goes decades without measurable rainfall. It’s so barren that NASA uses it to simulate conditions on Mars. But in rare years, the Atacama Desert receives a few inches of rain, like it did a few months ago. Within days, something astonishing happens. Dormant seeds that have been buried in the dust for years suddenly burst into life. The desert floor becomes carpeted with a palette of pink, purple, yellow, and white. The transformation is so dramatic that satellites can detect the color change from space. That’s the picture Isaiah gives us. Maybe your life feels a little like that dry ground right now. Life feels empty, brittle, and you’re waiting for something to change. Isaiah reminds us that God hasn’t forgotten how to make things bloom. His Word and his Spirit still bring renewal, transformation, and life. God rains down his grace, forgiveness, and peace on dry and weary hearts. God is able to transform the dry and the forsaken into vibrant life. God turns death into life. Jesus Christ went from barren death and three days later to life and immortality. He broke through the grave as the firstfruits from the dead. He endured the scathing punishment for your sin. He bore the withering wrath you deserved. He did all this so that God’s glory might be brought to full flower. He did it so that you, too, can go from death to life. Prayer: Dear God, send your rain on the dry places in my life. Let your grace soak into the cracks of my heart. Remind me that your Son, Jesus, was parched so that I can spend an eternity in paradise with you. Amen. Daily Devotions is brought to you by WELS.

What does it mean to be "pure in heart" and why does Jesus promise that those who pursue purity will see God? In this powerful message on Matthew 5:8, we explore the radical promise of spiritual intimacy that comes through purity of heart.In This Episode:Understanding what "blessed are the pure in heart" really meansWhy purity isn't restriction—it's the path to seeing GodHow singularity of heart leads to deeper intimacy with ChristThe difference between positional and progressive purityPractical steps to pursue purity in your daily walkWhy resisting sin shouldn't feel like holding your breathKey Timestamps:The Nature of Purity (10:54)The Promise: They Shall See God (16:57)The Pursuit: 5 Practical Steps (24:20)The world says purity is restrictive, but Jesus says it's the doorway to experiencing the nearness of God.
