The Power of Proper Perspective - Pastor Josh Reece - 8.24.25 by Vertical Church

Message from Jorge Villaverde on August 24, 2025

The Proper Perspective of Our Position in Christ

Have you ever experienced a challenge or difficulty in your life? A circumstance so bad you didn't know how you were going to make it through? Fear, doubt, and deep anxiety can creep into our lives causing us to stop, stumble, and/or steer away from the path to peace.This is another episode in our series entitled "The Path to Peace," based on an upcoming book project I am working on entitled The Path to Peace: 10 Verses to Develop Faith Over Fear. In this podcast episode of Monday Morning Moments, I share a verse that gives us the proper perspective and the right response to have peace in any moment...including the valley moments in our life.    Show Notes:In chapter 16 of the Gospel of John in the Bible, Jesus communicates a bunch of things to His disciples...mainly that He will be leaving them and why this is a good thing. They are confused about this and wonder how this could ever be a good thing. They also don't understand how the "Helper" that Jesus promises could ever be better than having Jesus in the flesh with them. At the end of chapter 16, Jesus says these words:“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)Importance of a Proper Perspective and the Right ResponseA proper perspective about a situation and the right response can help us move through challenging moments, discover the path to peace, and realize growth in the process and successful and impactful outcomes. The path to peace will be filled with trouble; yet, we can experience peace in the process because of what Jesus did on the cross and what He offers us in any moment. It's helpful to know that there will be challenges so we are not caught off guard at any moment (Perspective). And it's even better to know that we have someone who can help us conquer any fear along the way (The Powerful Response)!         New Episodes of the Monday Morning Moments Podcast are released every Monday on your favorite podcast platforms as well as on YouTube.

How can improper perspective lead to all kinds of disagreements and divisions in Christianity?How can we maintain a proper perspective on the Bible and our faith to glorify and honor God in Christ?Proper PerspectiveOutline | Conversation

A Proper Perspective 2 Peter 1:12-21

At the end of Leviticus, Moses talks about the seventh and the fiftieth years of release. There debts are forgiven, Israelite slaves are freed, the land is allowed to rest and, on the Jubilee, people return to the land that Joshua allotted to their clans. This is not a test of faith, because God promises a bumper crop on the sixth year so there is no fear of hunger. Rather it is a test of people's attitude toward wealth. Will they be satisfied with the blessings that God has promised and provided or will they be greedy and work their land and keep their slaves in the seventh year?

Message from Greg Neal on April 24, 2025

We all have perspectives on what we think is good, like the taste of ice cream or putting mayonnaise in our butter beans... but what about our perspective when life gets difficult? When we have a heart of gratitude, it's very hard to have an improper view on what is good in our life. Listen as we study the book of Ruth and uncover how to refocus our perspective on what God says is good!

"Problems & Proper Perspective"

"Problems & Proper Perspective"

MBC Prince William || The Word Of God || Proper Perspective (John 11) || Todd Peters

It is possible for a person to have a completely incorrect understanding of how Hashem interacts with us, stemming from misconceptions about concepts they learned as a child. For example, Chazal teach us that Hashem punishes midda keneged midda —measure for measure. Some people might perceive this as a form of revenge, chas v'shalom , as if to say, "If you act that way, I will do the same to you." This interpretation is a complete distortion of what midda keneged midda truly is. The Alshich explains this concept through a pasuk in Tehillim: ולך ה' חסד, כי אתה תשלם לאיש כמעשהו —"To You, Hashem, is kindness, for You repay a person according to their deeds." Hashem performs a tremendous act of chesed by ensuring that the consequence a person faces corresponds directly to their misdeed. Initially, Hashem grants a person time to do teshuva without any punishment. If the person does not repent, Hashem, in His compassion, does not want the sin to remain on their record. As an act of chesed , He provides a consequence designed to awaken the person to recognize their wrongdoing and inspire them to do teshuva . Hashem desires for each person to attain eternal happiness, which sin would jeopardize. Midda keneged midda is one of Hashem's many acts of love, designed to guide us toward a better path. Consider the following story: A man was confined to a wheelchair, and his wife managed their household efficiently. They were known for their hospitality, opening their home to many people seeking a meal or solace. One regular visitor became so accustomed to their generosity that he treated their home as his own, staying for hours and unintentionally straining their hospitality. Eventually, the couple moved to a new, more spacious apartment on the fifth floor. Although this would typically be challenging for someone in a wheelchair, the building had an elevator that went directly to their floor. However, on their first day in the new apartment, the elevator malfunctioned, stopping only at the fourth floor. Each day, the husband needed assistance carrying his wheelchair down one flight of stairs and back up again—a significant inconvenience. As days passed without the elevator being fixed, the wife recalled a story she had heard. A family once moved without informing a poor, lonely man who regularly visited them for food every Friday. On their first day in their new home, the woman encountered a scorpion in her kitchen. Though they killed it, another appeared the next morning. Realizing something unusual was happening, they consulted their rabbi. The rabbi opened Perek Shira and pointed out the scorpion's song: "And His mercies are upon all His creations." He suggested they reflect on whether they had failed to show compassion to someone. The couple remembered their oversight in not notifying the lonely man about their move. They sought him out, informed him of their new address, and invited him to continue visiting. After this, the scorpions stopped appearing. The wife related this story to her husband and suggested that their situation was similar. They wanted Hashem to have pity on them, yet they had not shown compassion to the guest who was accustomed to visiting them. They realized they had failed to inform him about their move. That very day, they reached out to him and reassured him that he was welcome to visit whenever he wanted. By the next morning, the elevator was fixed. Someone hearing this story might think Hashem was punishing the family for their lack of compassion. However, that is not the correct perspective. Hashem knew how much they gained from their chesed toward this guest and wanted to ensure they didn't lose out on those eternal merits. In His kindness, He gave them a reminder to continue their good deeds. Everything Hashem does is an act of chesed . We need to train ourselves to see events in this light and maintain the proper perspective

Today's podcast begins with host Mike Slater taking a call from a father about how his daughter doesn't think Kamala Harris is cool or smart anymore based on a recent interview that she did. Hilarious stuff. That's followed up by a great monologue about how we all need to have the "proper perspective" on illegal immigration and why it's important that every American understand the stakes involved with this issue, particular as we gear up to vote for our next President!Following the opener, Trump World expert, Dr. Sebastian Gorka, joins the program and talks about what he's hearing as we inch every closer to November! It's his belief that the Kamala Harris campaign is collapsing before all our eyes! You'll want to hear his rationale for this one as it's both entertaining and informative!

In this passage from Philippians 1, Paul models the right perspective amid difficulty and challenges. He first shows us the proper perspective for difficult circumstances, focusing not on his difficulty but on what God is doing. He then helps us to have the right perspective on difficult people, modeling not a desire to fight back or justify himself but to glorify Christ. In all of life's difficulties, we can trust that God has a purpose and seek to glorify him. From our Sunday service at Grace Bible Church of Bend.

Sometimes we allow life to hinder us to live free all while sleeping on ourselves and forgetting that we are one of one. We are unique and we have to start regarding ourselves as the fearfully and wonderfully made creation we are. This week join Brenda Palmer as she sits down with her big brother Devon Franklin and talk all things that will help us develop the proper perspective of our journey in life. Support the Show.

The Promise Land doesn't represent Heaven; it represents the land of dreams that God has given you. Canaan was not a type of Heaven; it was a type of victory. And as you enter the place of victory and dreams, you must have the proper perspective because there will be giants in the way! There are two kinds of mindsets you can have: grape-tasters and giant-talkers.
