A devotional study about how critical it is to be able to act when the moment arises. We are all called to act, and throughout history, many have needed to move expeditiously to take some action that was needed for something much bigger than themselves. Are you ready to act?Exodus 2:7-8 KJVThen said his sister to Pharaoh's daughter, “Shall I go and call to thee a nurse of the Hebrew women, that she may nurse the child for thee?” And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, “Go.” And the maid went and called the child's mother.Related Podcasts:— Don't Wait to Stand Up— Standing Up Against the Wrong— Take Courage— What Doest Thou Here, Elijah?— Fear Not — For I am With Thee— We are Well Able to Overcome— Encourage Yourself in the LordRelated Podcasts at TrueWisdom:— Don't Wait to Stand Up— The Fall of Samson— Samson, the PreludeText UsSupport the showPlease send your questions or comments to: BibleQuestions@ASBzone.comWe often refer to "The Key Principles of Effective Bible Study," a Bible Study resource which outlines core concepts shown in the Scriptures that will help you to better understand many Biblical themes and doctrines.

In Judeo-Christian scripture, The Satan appears in many forms: the serpent in Eden, the Leviathan in Job, the dragon in Revelation, the beasts rising from the sea in Daniel, and the devil of the New Testament. We're told that the Son of God appeared to destroy the works of the devil. But how do we begin to grasp this profound mystery? And how should this understanding shape the way we live as followers of Christ?In the weeks ahead, we'll begin to unpack these themes and explore what they mean for our faith and daily lives.Scriptures: 1 John 3:8, Genesis 1:21, Genesis 3

A. What is this passage about? This devotional centers on discerning between the spirit of truth and the spirit of error. It explains that Christians must not believe every spiritual claim but must test the spirits to determine whether they are from God. A key marker is whether the spirit confesses that Jesus came in the flesh. False teachers and the spirit of the Antichrist deny this truth. The devotional emphasizes relying on Scripture, listening to apostolic teaching, and being confident in God's power within believers. B. What is the best verse to summarize this passage? "Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world." – 1 John 4:1 C. What are we called to do? Test all teachings by comparing them with biblical truth. Confess and believe that Jesus truly came in the flesh. Stand firm in faith, knowing that God's Spirit in us is greater than the enemy. Reject false doctrines, especially those that deny Christ's incarnation. Be like the Bereans, examining the Scriptures to confirm truth.

Acts 18:22-28 English Standard Version22 When he had landed at Caesarea, he went up and greeted the church, and then went down to Antioch. 23 After spending some time there, he departed and went from one place to the next through the region of Galatia and Phrygia, strengthening all the disciples.Apollos Speaks Boldly in Ephesus24 Now a Jew named Apollos, a native of Alexandria, came to Ephesus. He was an eloquent man, competent in the Scriptures. 25 He had been instructed in the way of the Lord. And being fervent in spirit, he spoke and taught accurately the things concerning Jesus, though he knew only the baptism of John. 26 He began to speak boldly in the synagogue, but when Priscilla and Aquila heard him, they took him aside and explained to him the way of God more accurately. 27 And when he wished to cross to Achaia, the brothers encouraged him and wrote to the disciples to welcome him. When he arrived, he greatly helped those who through grace had believed, 28 for he powerfully refuted the Jews in public, showing by the Scriptures that the Christ was Jesus.The Holy Bible, English Standard Version.

April 25, 2025 - Equipped 2025 - Day 2 - 9:00AM Session In this episode, we explore the enticing question of which sermon from the Bible we would choose to hear in person. While many might lean towards iconic messages like the Sermon on the Mount or Peter's sermon on Pentecost, the discussion takes us deeper into the fascinating world of scripture. We examine the appeal of experiencing Jesus preaching Christ from the Old Testament, making connections that enlighten those who listen. The episode delves into Romans 15:4, illustrating the seven compelling reasons why the Old Testament holds immense value for modern believers. From its theological significance and intentional teachings to its instructional and applicable nature, the Old Testament offers rich insights that resonate through time. We also highlight practical reasons to study these ancient texts, revealing their relevance and the profound relationship they reflect between God and humanity. Romans 15:4 - For whatever things were written before were written for our learning, that we through the patience and comfort of the Scriptures might have hope.

In this opening message of our June series, we step into a powerful rediscovery of the person, power, and presence of the Holy Spirit. Far from a mysterious force or an abstract idea, Holy Spirit is the third person of the Trinity—eternal, intelligent, emotional, and deeply personal. Using Jesus' own words in John 16, we're introduced to the Spirit as our Advocate, Comforter, and Revealer. He's not an “it”, but a “He”—the very mind and heart of God made present and active in our lives. Holy Spirit is not here to confuse or conceal, but to guide, clarify, empower, and uncover the hidden treasures of the Kingdom already given to us in Christ. This episode will stir your faith to not just learn about Holy Spirit—but to encounter Him. From the Scriptures to your quiet time, in worship or even standing in line at Starbucks, He is speaking. The question is: Are you listening? Prepare for a fresh unveiling of spiritual truth as we allow the Author of Scripture to illuminate the mysteries of grace, truth, and your divine inheritance.
To better understand the scriptures, read all of it through the lens of Jesus, his suffering and his redemptive victory over evil.

In this powerful continuation of the “I Will Cut You” series, Pastor [Insert Name] dives into the life-giving and life-destroying power of the tongue in a message titled "Words Matter." Drawing from James 3 and other supporting Scriptures, this sermon exposes the destructive nature of ungodly speech—gossip, slander, negativity, manipulation, and false teaching—and calls believers to “cut off” these sins of the tongue.God's Word was never meant to coexist with the words of our oppressors. Just as Isaiah 55:12 promises deliverance through God's voice, we are reminded that our speech should reflect the freedom and peace that only He provides. Instead of sowing strife through prideful, harmful words, we are called to plant seeds of righteousness with wisdom from above—speech that is pure, peace-loving, gentle, compassionate, and full of good fruit.You'll discover: Why sins of the tongue are more than just “bad habits” — they are often demonically fueled weapons against unity and destiny. How spiritual maturity is tied to speech discipline. The emotional, physical, and spiritual consequences of careless and prideful words. Practical steps for replacing destructive language with godly, life-giving communication. The danger of being a “busybody” and the importance of staying focused on your God-given assignment. This message isn't just about talking differently—it's about living differently by submitting every word to the Lordship of Christ. Because words shape worlds, and your breakthrough may just be waiting on your mouth to agree with God!Cut it off. Speak life. Walk in peace.
This week, Dr. Brad East joins us for a deep dive into the Doctrine of Scripture and its implications for how we read and interpret the Bible, engage with church tradition and confess weekly that “This is the Word of the Lord.” How did we get there? Brad talks about inspiration, canonisation, and the Scriptures in the life of the church. He also delves into different denominational approaches to Scripture, touching on infallibility, perspicuity and sufficiency, amongst other topics. Finally, Brad offers encouragement to those who seek to foster thoughtful reading practices in a post-literate generation. He'll be joining us from Jun 9-12 to teach “The Doctrine of Scripture.” We'd love for you to join us!Brad's BioDr. Brad East is an associate professor of theology at Abilene Christian University (ACU) in Abilene, Texas.

Send us a textChatGPT said:In this episode of the Village Church sermon podcast, Pastor Daniel brings the story of Esther to its close. He draws our attention to the powerful theme of reversal and Esther's bold decision to speak on behalf of her people. As the narrative concludes, Daniel asks us to consider where we hand over authority in our own lives—and how we might use the influence we carry to serve others and make the Gospel visible.Support the showThe Village Church's sermon podcast is more than just a weekly message. It is an invitation into the great and ongoing story of God's work in the world. Pastors Eric, Mark, Susan, Daniel, and other leaders open the Scriptures not as a collection of abstract ideas but as the living, breathing witness to God's kingdom breaking into our midst. Each episode is a call—not merely to listen, but to take part, to step forward into the life of faith with renewed vision and purpose. Week by week, the pastors and leaders explore the deep rhythms of Christian discipleship—prayer, fasting, generosity—not as isolated duties but as part of a larger, richer, and more beautiful whole. They unpack these ancient practices in light of Jesus himself, the one in whom heaven and earth have come together. But they also turn their attention to the realities of everyday life—relationships, finances, the struggles and joys of being human—demonstrating how the gospel is not merely about what we believe but about how we live as God's renewed people in the present age.

Luke 24:44-53 - Then He [Jesus] said to them, "These are My words that I spoke to you while I was still with you, that everything written about Me in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms must be fulfilled." Then He opened their minds to understand the Scriptures, and said to them, "Thus it is written, that the Christ should suffer and on the third day rise from the dead, and that repentance for the forgiveness of sins should be proclaimed in His Name to all nations, beginning from Jerusalem. You are witnesses of these things. And behold, I am sending the promise of My Father upon you. But stay in the city until you are clothed with power from on high." And He led them out as far as Bethany, and lifting up His hands He blessed them. While He blessed them, He parted from them and was carried up into heaven. And they worshiped Him and returned to Jerusalem with great joy, and were continually in the temple blessing God.

Justice isn't about payback—it's about redemption.Romans 12:19 reminds us to leave vengeance to God, but that's easier said than done.

How do you listen to a sermon? Honestly, it isn't always easy. There's nothing more frustrating than listening to somebody talk for 30 to 45 minutes and to walk away with nothing. The truth is, there are some specific tactics you can apply to every sermon you hear that will help you get so much more out of it.In this episode of Live the Bible, we find those principles from one who called himself the “Preacher” – King Solomon in the book of Ecclesiastes.

Welcome to episode 202 of Grasp the Bible. In this episode, we walk through Psalm 5. Today, we will explore how King David sought God's face in a two-faced world, focusing on: Prayer for God's Justice (vv. 1–3) Affirmation of God's Hatred of Evil (vv. 4–6) Hope in Fellowship With God (v. 7) Prayer for God's Righteousness (v. 8) Affirmation of Evil (v. 9) Hope in God's Righteousness (vv. 10–12) Key takeaways: David shows us how to navigate this two-faced world with integrity and hope. What better way to start the day than to direct one's thoughts, one's praise, one's prayers to God, and look up? Is it not better to face every day, whatever the circumstances, with God than without Him? David's hope is grounded in the character of God. He is confident because he knows who God is. Wickedness always alienates us from God, creating a chasm of separation that can only be bridged by repentance on our part and by God's merciful forgiveness. We approach the infinitely holy God—not because of our own worthiness, but through the "credentials" of Christ's righteousness and God's abundant, unfailing love. The Scriptures indicate that God has provided a standard for life, or a norm, to guide humankind. To direct one's life in accord with this standard is to walk in righteousness; that is, in the way that is right. Quotable: Discernment requires looking beyond appealing words to examine both the heart behind them and the ultimate impact they will have. Application: When facing situations that seem unjust or unchanged despite prayer, remember David's example of bringing the same concerns to God each morning. Before addressing challenges or injustices, follow David's pattern of first bringing the matter to God. This ensures our responses are guided by divine wisdom rather than merely human reaction.
