Even the best men have faults, but Jesus ascended as the Man and King with no fault. #daybydaylw Interested in learning more about becoming a devoted follower of Christ? Go to follow.lifeword.org! ~~~ David, despite his flaws, points us to something greater. His humility after failure, his intercession for the people, his costly worship—all these highlight why he was a good king. Yet David's goodness has limits. He sins. He fails. He needs mercy himself. This final chapter of Samuel whispers for something more: a greater King. One who would not just intercede but bear the full penalty. One whose obedience would be perfect, whose mercy would be unending. Jesus is the better David. Where David sinned, Jesus obeyed. Where David offered symbolic sacrifices, Jesus became the sacrifice. Where David's mercy spared a city, Jesus' mercy spares the world. Prayer Points: Jesus, thank You for being the flawless King David could only foreshadow. Teach me to treasure Your mercy and walk daily in Your grace. Let my life reflect the kind of kingdom You are building—one of mercy and truth. 2 People To Pray For Rigoberto Jimenez and his family, our National Changemakers in El Salvador The Dagaare Lifeword broadcast for the people of Burkina Faso & Ghana

MOST OF THE kings of Judah, and all of those who ruled the northern kingdom of Israel, “did evil in the sight of the LORD.” One notable exception was Asa, king of Judah between about 910 and 873 BC, whose “heart was wholly true all his days.” He got rid of the idols erected by his father, Abijah, and banished male cult prostitutes from the land. The account of his reign in 2 Chronicles further records the religious reforms instituted by Asa, who even removed his mother (or grandmother) Maacah from her position as queen mother because she'd erected an Asherah pole.
This Palm Sunday message highlights that all of the Old Testament has a message: The good King will come. Similarly the Gospels have a message: The Good King has come. The choice that falls on each one of us is whether we will crown Him? Or will we crucify Him?
Passage: Matthew 19:16-30. Series: King & Kingdom. Preacher: Peter Chilvers
The art of biscuit making is a tender process where contrasting ingredients are gently coaxed into an improbable friendship. No two biscuits are exactly alike, but a good biscuit is something you can give yourself wholly to, even while eyeing the next one. Satisfaction is elusive. There's always plenty and never enough. Yeah, I'm talking about The Blues. The Blues sweet-talks electrifying joy and benumbed pain into a soul-satisfying concoction and lays it all out on the table. Come and get it. Blues and biscuits. No one does it better than "King Biscuit" in Helena Arkansas, one of the best Blues festivals in the world. The post All Hail The Good King Biscuit! appeared first on Living In Beauty.
The empty tomb is proof that God accepted Jesus' sacrifice as payment for our sins. #daybydaylw Interested in learning more about becoming a devoted follower of Christ? Go to follow.lifeword.org! ~~~ "Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us." Rizpah's heartbreaking vigil over the bodies of her sons reminds us of the weight of covenant-breaking. Day and night, she fought off scavengers, mourning the gruesome consequences of sin. Her sorrow moved David to act, gathering the bones of Saul and his sons for a proper burial. And then, the curse was lifted—the famine ended, the rain fell, and the land was restored. But this was just one curse, in one place, at one time. Humanity carries a greater burden—the curse of sin. Our rebellion against God has separated us from Him, leaving us spiritually dry, longing for renewal. Just as Israel's curse was removed through burial, our ultimate curse was removed through Christ's death and resurrection. Jesus became the atonement for our sin, and His empty grave is the undeniable proof that God accepted His sacrifice. He alone bridges the gap between us and God. Because of Christ, the famine is over, the curse is removed, and all who trust in Him have access to the Father. Is your life marked by spiritual famine? Come to the King who has mediated for you, who has made atonement, and who lifts the curse. Surrender to Him today. Prayer Focus: Thank Jesus for becoming your atonement. Ask God to restore any dry or broken areas in your life. Lift up Denis Lopez and his family, serving in Honduras. Pray for the Sign Language-American Lifeword broadcast in the USA. Jesus is the Good King who has made things right. Will you trust Him today?

When an unstoppable army marches to Judah's doorstep–mocking their faith and daring them to trust God–find out how King Hezekiah and the Prophet Isaiah respond (it's awesome) in 2 Kings 18 and 2 Kings 19. Themes of this podcast episode:Recognizing the Enemy's Tactics. The Assyrian commander uses fear, lies, and twisted theology to manipulate Judah into surrender. His strategy mirrors the enemy's tactics today, showing us why we must be grounded in truth to stand firm.Trusting God in the Face of Fear. King Hezekiah faces overwhelming opposition...twice. The first time, he panics and makes a big mistake. The second time, he makes an incredible faith come back. Don't miss this helpful reminder that faith isn't about the absence of fear—it's about where we place our trust when fear comes knocking.Prayer Changes History. Hezekiah's bold, God-centered prayer isn't just a desperate plea, it's a game-changer. His prayer aligns with God's will, giving us a powerful example of how we can bring our own struggles to God.

Whether you're grappling with life's cycles or seeking inspiration to deepen your faith, this message offers encouragement to break free from the patterns of sin and embrace the redemptive power of Christ. Tune in for thought-provoking insights and practical takeaways to strengthen your walk with God.

Hail and well met, book friends! We're feeling pretty silly as we close in on the final episodes of Season 9. We travel back to 10th century Bohemia to learn the story behind the popular Christmas carol "Good King Wenceslas". Join us for a very biblically-styled tale that taught us some things but failed to get us invested in the characters. The author emailed us about his book and, usually when we get emails from authors or PR reps, it's not even worth consideration - but a medieval historical thriller? about a Christmas carol? In this century at this point in history? At this time of year? It only made sense to pop it onto the schedule for December. Thanks to George himself for furnishing us with a free review copy of the book (and being willing to be featured on TBC with all that may entail)! Musings and derailments include: Duke Abe Simpsovclav of Springfieldia, heavy metal months, Breastfeeding education, Paris's Babadook terrors, and we struggle to poorly sing another song from the book (the titular carol)! In addition to our usual barnyard language, today's episode includes discussion or mention of parental abuse, sexual assault, and murder.
To close out Christmas Giving, we're revisiting an episode many of you probably (and understandably) deleted right away. Jessica Smetana joins for the post-NIU discussion, in which we talked about Marcus Freeman, transfer quarterbacks, stadium atmosphere, coaching searches and a lot more.

Alright friends - today's episode is a little study of Jaredite “Good King, Bad King”...and the lessons we can learn from them.
It seems to be a huge turning point for most societies. We see it in the Old Testament, with the Nephites, and here with the Jaredites. The brother of Jared's words echo clearly...especially to our day.If you'd like to view the video that goes with this podcast, click here

Socially—Through relationships we see God is our Good King, Father, Husband, Mother, Shepherd, Judge, and Teacher. 3. Attributes—As presented in the Westminster Confession of Faith.
