“My heart is confident in you, O God; my heart is confident. No wonder I can sing your praises!” (Psalm 57:7 NLT) He came from the humblest of beginnings and rose to become the greatest king in Israel’s history. In battle, he was fearless. As a ruler, he was without peer. God once referred to him as a man after His own heart. I’m speaking, of course, of David: shepherd, psalmist, musician, protector, warrior, giant-killer, and monarch. David’s story is one of the most familiar in all of Scripture, and for good reason. David is someone most people can relate to. He was an underdog, someone who was overlooked by others. He was bullied and found himself in situations that were beyond his control. He tried to do what was right but wasn’t above making some really bad decisions. Yet God used him to accomplish some incredible things. And as we look at David’s story, we can get some clues as to the type of people God uses. First, God uses ordinary people. The Lord prefers to work in and through ordinary people to do extraordinary things. That way, the people who witness those extraordinary things won’t be confused about who accomplished them. God wants to make sure that people give credit to Him rather than to human beings. The apostle Paul suffered from an affliction that he called “a thorn in my flesh” (2 Corinthians 12:7 NLT). Three times he asked God to take it away. “Each time [God] said, ‘My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness.’ So now [Paul was] glad to boast about [his] weaknesses, so that the power of Christ [could] work through [him]” (verse 9 NLT). Paul’s affliction made him ordinary, which allowed the extraordinary work of God to be magnified through him. Just as surely as God used Paul’s ordinary affliction and plucked David, an ordinary shepherd boy, from obscurity, He is looking for people today through whom He can show His strength. Second, God uses spiritually focused people. David wrote, “My heart is confident in you, O God; my heart is confident. No wonder I can sing your praises!” (Psalm 57:7 NLT). His confidence came from keeping his eyes on God rather than on his circumstances, and he experienced the blessings that come from that kind of faith. God may not give you everything you hope for in life, or He may give you far more than you ever imagined. Either way, your responsibility is to trust Him, leave the results in His hands, and put Him first. That’s exactly what David did. Third, God uses people who are content in Him. As a young boy, David’s primary responsibility was to ensure the safety of sheep. David figured that if watching sheep was what God wanted him to do, then he would do the best job he could. Did he dream of one day doing great things for God? We can’t know for sure, but we do know that David was content in whatever God called him to do. Like David, we are all ordinary people. There’s no shame in that. As long as we’re willing to be faithful in what God has set before us and willing to be content in whatever God asks from us, God will use us. And sometimes He’ll do it in extraordinary ways. Reflection question: How can you make yourself available for God to use?

https://square.link/u/UHRU92rp - Donate HereIn Psalm 57, David writes from a cave—running for his life, surrounded by pressure, and overwhelmed by what's in front of him. But before he addresses the chaos around him, he brings his heart to God: “Hide me. Hear me. Help me.” This is a raw, honest prayer from a man who knows he can't fix it on his own.And yet, something shifts. As David draws near to God, fear gives way to confidence, and panic turns into praise. By the end of the psalm, he's no longer overwhelmed—he's worshiping. This is the reminder we all need: when you bring everything to God, He doesn't just hear you—He changes you.
Discover how to find a supernatural calm in the midst of life's "caves" as Adam Hayes explores the poetic power of Psalm 57. Learn how David's choice to "awaken the dawn" with praise serves as a timeless roadmap for trusting God as our ultimate refuge during our darkest moments.
Fr. Mike uses King Saul as an example that God does not unchoose those he has chosen, and never loses faith in us. Even if we feel someone is in power unjustly, it's God who decides who holds power, not us. Today's readings are 1 Samuel 24 and Psalm 57.

The work of conquering the Promised Land, in large part, has come to a close. Now it's time to divide the land between the clans of Israel as Moses had instructed. To our modern ears, much of what we'll hear today may not seem important or relevant. Try to imagine, however, if you and your family had been given large sums of real estate by the work of God's mighty hand. Wouldn't you find it important that the details about property lines be recorded for you and for future generations? Additionally, listen for those instances where Israel does not completely destroy those who had inhabited the land. This is evidence of Israel's disobedience and a prelude to the problems presented in Israel's forthcoming history. Joshua 14 - 1:10 . Joshua 15 - 3:55 . Joshua 16 - 11:46 . Joshua 17 - 13:22 .

When we last left Israel, they had just prostituted themselves with the women of Moab as an act of Baal worship. The Lord sent a plague among them that was only stopped when Phinehas impaled a fornicating couple through with his spear. In the wake of this tragic display of unfaithfulness, the Lord tells Moses in today's reading that he will soon die because he didn't obey the Lord's command at the water of Meribah. The Lord gives Moses directions on how he should pass the mantle of leadership on to Joshua, son of Nun. But first, we continue where we left off with the census that will establish how the Israelites are to divide the land once they cross the Jordan. Numbers 27 - 3:15 . Numbers 28 - 7:36 .

David learned that God was his refuge and his fortress, the One he could trust in times of trouble. Join Pastor Cameron as he encourage us to keep our trust in the Lord in all times and trust Him for His protection!
This sermon, centered on Psalm 57, explores the faithful response of David amid peril, despair, and the perceived dimming of God's glory, illustrating how believers today can navigate life's recurring trials with trust, prayer, and hope. It highlights three key dimensions: the reality of external danger, internal despair, and the spiritual crisis of God's glory being obscured in the face of wickedness, all of which are met with a God-centered faith. The response is rooted in divine refuge under God's wings, fervent prayer to the Almighty, and confident hope in God's past faithfulness and future deliverance, grounded in the ultimate fulfillment of mercy and truth through Christ. The resolution is a call to active, joyful worship—awakening the soul to praise, both privately and publicly—as a vital expression of stability and doctrinal integrity. Ultimately, the sermon emphasizes that Christian stability is not self-reliance but a heart fixed on the unchanging God, sustained by the gospel, and empowered by the reality of Christ's victory, making the same truths of Scripture eternally relevant in every season of life.
