In this three part series in Zephaniah, Jacob teaches about the Christian's only refuge - the cross of Jesus.

This message, "The Habit of Hope", was preached by Pastor Twitty on July 13, 2025.

A Psalm. A Song for the Sabbath.Psalm 92,“It is good to give thanks to the Lord, to sing praises to your name, O Most High;2 to declare your steadfast love in the morning, and your faithfulness by night,3 to the music of the lute and the harp, to the melody of the lyre.4 For you, O Lord, have made me glad by your work; at the works of your hands I sing for joy.5 How great are your works, O Lord! Your thoughts are very deep!6 The stupid man cannot know; the fool cannot understand this:7 that though the wicked sprout like grass and all evildoers flourish,they are doomed to destruction forever;8 but you, O Lord, are on high forever.9 For behold, your enemies, O Lord, for behold, your enemies shall perish; all evildoers shall be scattered.10 But you have exalted my horn like that of the wild ox; you have poured over me fresh oil.11 My eyes have seen the downfall of my enemies; my ears have heard the doom of my evil assailants.12 The righteous flourish like the palm tree and grow like a cedar in Lebanon.13 They are planted in the house of the Lord; they flourish in the courts of our God.14 They still bear fruit in old age; they are ever full of sap and green,15 to declare that the Lord is upright; he is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.” Father, I want to thank you again for this moment, and for your Word. We ask that you would show us the glory of Jesus in the Scriptures, and that you would help us to live in light of his realness. Do that, we ask, in Jesus's name, amen.“If I had only known then what I know now!” — that's a statement you've probably heard before (maybe it's one you've said yourself) — it's what we could call the clarity of hindsight.Standing where we are in the present and looking back, we see more from here than we saw then, and it's a kind of wishful thought-experiment to imagine ourselves then knowing what we know now:Think about Middle School (I've been reading a book about how weird Middle School is for kids — it's tough) — just imagine, parents, if you could go back to Middle School with the wisdom and chill you have now.Or here's one: what kind of stock would you have bought in 1997 when a company called Amazon went public at $18 a share?This is the clarity of hindsight — and if we could've had the clarity back then we have now, we would've done some things differently.And this way of thinking helps us make sense of Psalm 92. Now let me explain why. This is gonna take a minute, but bear with me …The Heavenly PerspectiveNotice in the superscript — those little words above verse 1 — Psalm 92 is called,“A Psalm. A Song for the Sabbath.” Now this is a little funny, right, because isn't this true of every psalm? Every psalm is a psalm, and all of them were used for worship on the Sabbath, so how is Psalm 92 special? What is this superscript saying? Well, what's unique about Psalm 92 is that the Sabbath referred to here is not talking about the weekly Sabbath, but this is about the final Sabbath that's realized in the end-time new-creation. I think Sabbath here is referring to heaven.Think back a couple years ago to the Book of Hebrews — remember that the writer of Hebrews (commenting on Psalm 95, just a few psalms over), he says “there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God.” He says there's another Sabbath day yet to come, a final Sabbath — and that's what's in view here in Psalm 92.Psalm 92 is a song for the Sabbath of our future, heavenly rest! Which means this — if you use your imagination — Psalm 92 is a song that we're gonna sing in heaven looking back on our lives in this world.Psalm 92 is us saying in heaven one day “If I had only known then what I know now!” — except that it's given to us now! We get to read this today! We have a true heavenly perspective right in front of us, and it shows us at least two big things we need to know.So for the sermon this morning, I wanna tell you two big truths that we'll know with certainty in heaven, but that Psalm 92 is letting us in on today. The first is this:1. We sing with our Savior. Now I already told you that we're gonna sing this song, but now I want to be extra clear that we're gonna sing this song not with Jesus over here on the side somewhere, but we can only sing this song in union with him.And to make that case, first I want you to know that this psalm is about him. Mainly About JesusSomething that you've heard us say over and over again about the Psalms is that the Book of Psalms is mainly about the Messiah. The individual psalms were composed at different times (almost half of them by David), but the Book of Psalms as a whole was compiled for the people of God in exile. And it's that final form book we have. So we shouldn't isolate the individual psalms and focus only on the historical context of their composition, but instead we read the psalms as a single book that has been compiled and arranged in a particular way. And the driving concern of this book as a whole is that God has a future for the house of David! The house of David is the hope of God's people because it's through David's lineage that the Messiah would come. So the Psalms really are pointing to him. They're pointing to Jesus. That's why the Psalms are the most quoted Old Testament book in the New Testament — and this is the book that Jesus himself most quoted!Which is an amazing thought … we know for a fact that Jesus read the Book of Psalms. The same book that we're reading here, Psalm 92 we're looking at this morning — Jesus read it and prayed it and sang it, and he knew it was about him. Last week, we saw in Psalm 91 that Jesus knew all of the promises of Psalm 91 were to him as God's anointed one, and the same is true of Psalm 92. Psalm 92 is the celebration of the victory he experienced in Psalm 91 — which means we don't read this psalm and draw a straight line from these words to us, but instead we read Psalm 92 and first imagine Jesus reading it. In the Voice of JesusI want us to try this. Try to hear the praise and celebration of Psalm 92 in the voice of Jesus …He starts in verse 1 by saying it's good to give thanks to Yahweh, to sing his praises, to declare his steadfast love and faithfulness all day long. It's good to do that! Why? Why is it good to praise God?It's because, verse 4:“For you, O Yahweh, have made me glad by your work; at the works of your hands I sing for joy.”This is straightforward: It's good to praise God because we're glad in his work — what he's done! Jesus says, verse 5,“How great are your works, O Yahweh!”But what works is he talking about? God does a lot of works — there's creation and providence and salvation (and a trillion details) — what works does he have in mind here?Well verses 10–11 tell us. Psalm 92, verse 10:“But you have exalted my horn like that of the wild ox; you have poured over me fresh oil. My eyes have seen the downfall of my enemies; my ears have heard the doom of my evil assailants.”This is describing triumph — victory. And that's the work of God he's talking about in verses 4–5. And notice: this is God's work specified in the experience of a single person. This is first-person singular — it's “my horn,” “me,” “my enemies.” Check out that phrase to “exalt the horn” — and the idea of a “horn” is power — so to exalt the horn is to establish this power as supreme … which happens through victory. He's saying, I'm the top dog! I'm the Alpha-ox! Because all of my rivals have been subdued!This singer in Psalm 92 is saying this about himself … the singer is Jesus. And of course Jesus would say this about himself because it's true. And this metaphor of an exalted horn is used for the Messiah in other places in the Old Testament. Take 1 Samuel Chapter 2. Like Hannah Says1 Samuel 2 is Hannah's prayer. She's rejoicing in God and what he's gonna do for his people, she ends the prayer with this, 1 Samuel 2:10, “The adversaries of Yahweh shall be broken to pieces; against them he will thunder in heaven. Yahweh will judge the ends of the earth; he will give strength to his king and exalt the horn of his anointed.”You hear that? Victory over adversaries and exalted horn. It's the same thing we see in Psalm 92, verse 10 — but in 1 Samuel 2 it's clear that it's about the Messiah. Hannah says this is for “God's anointed.”Now do we see anything about being anointed in Psalm 92? Yeah, look at the very next line in verse 10! Verse 10 again:“You have exalted my horn like that of the wild ox [and look at this! —] you have poured over me fresh oil.”That is anointing!So you have here: (1) Exalted horn; (2) victory over enemies; (3) anointed one.Psalm 92 is about Jesus. Jesus is the one saying this. He's singing this song in the victory that God has given him.Can We Sing It, Too?And now we're reading it and we want to sing it too! We wanna sing this song, but it's not about us. How does this work? How can we sing this song about Jesus and claim it for ourselves?Here's how: It's because all the blessings of Jesus are shared with those who belong to Jesus. And this is something that you might know, or maybe you've heard it before, but honestly, if we could really grasp this, it'd change everything for us. Seriously. I mean it. Personally, I wanna get this more. That in union with Jesus, we get Jesus and all his benefits. This was one of the great recoveries of the Protestant Reformation, that by our faith in Jesus all that belongs to Jesus get applied to us: His righteousness becomes our record. His Sonship becomes our status. His peace becomes our anchor. His Spirit becomes our strength. His resurrection becomes our new life. His intercession becomes our confidence. His inheritance becomes our future.All that is his becomes ours. Every possible good thing from God in our lives comes through Jesus. We exist now only in him. So we're actually seated with him in heavenly places! We're hidden in him. Our eternal destiny is as secure as his throne. That's all true, right now …And this is glorious — it means that your worst days, your most painful moments, will not endure. They will not last. Now they might be part of your story, but they are never ‘your story' — and the only way they could be would be if Jesus ceases to be who he is. See, our hope is as alive and indestructible as Jesus is himself. Jesus shares his Psalm 92-triumph with us! His victory is our victory! So we don't sing this song apart from him, but we sing it with him, through him, united to him.By our union with him, because Jesus is blessed, we are blessed. That's what it means to be a Christian!And I just want to pause here for a minute and say: I cannot imagine a more compelling reason to be a Christian than this.If you're here and you don't believe — if you've never put your faith in Jesus — this is why you should: You get Jesus and all his benefits. He will share with you everything that is his. What will it cost you? It'll cost you your whole life, in one sense — it will cost you your life as you know it. You have to turn away from your sin. But this song becomes your song! You receive the victory of God. And one day, when we look back here, we'll know: Psalm 92 is about Jesus, and we get to sing it with our Savior!Second truth here. One day we'll know for sure …2. We age with glory.This is verse 12.In verse 12, Jesus, the singer, goes from thinking about his own experience of salvation to thinking about the reality of the righteous. The “they” in verses 13–14 is plural. Now I'm gonna read the last part again, but before I do I want to remind you of Psalm 1. There's an allusion here and I want us to catch it. Remember the very first psalm opens with a vision of the blessed man — Psalm 1, verse 3:“He is like a tree planted by streams of water that yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither. In all that he does, he prospers.”And we, as the readers of the Psalms — as those who have faith — we're often called “the righteous” in the Psalms and we're supposed to be like this blessed man. He's the paragon of faithfulness.Now listen to Psalm 92, starting in verse 12:“The righteous flourish like the palm treeand grow like a cedar in Lebanon.13 They are planted in the house of Yahweh;they flourish in the courts of our God.14 They still bear fruit in old age;they are ever full of sap and green,15 to declare that Yahweh is upright;he is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.”Now here Jesus is taking about us. We have become like that blessed man — and Jesus is singing about it.And that's not a strange idea, that Jesus would sing about us, because in Zephaniah 3:17, we read that God rejoices over us with gladness and exults over us with loud singing. And so if we ever needed an idea of what that singing might be, here's one. Imagine this: Jesus is singing about you, and do you want to know what he's saying?The Older, the BetterHe's saying that you're like a tree. We're trees! We are flourishing palm trees, rooted and nourished by the presence of God. And here's what that means: the older, the better. The older, the better — now that takes a different perspective, doesn't it? That takes a heavenly perspective.Because nothing around us in this world is saying that. So many in our society despise aging and they do all they can to stop it (or to at least disguise it!) I read last week that in America, we spend around $30 billion every year on anti-aging products and services. We pretty much do everything you can imagine when it comes to aging, except honor it!But Psalm 92 says something radical: aging when you're a Christian is not decline, but flourishing. The older we get in Jesus, the more fruitful we become. Not less valuable — but more. Not less alive — but more alive because “Though our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day” (2 Corinthians 4:17)Do you see? Aging is a glory for those united to Jesus. The song of Psalm 92 is sung loudest by those who've walked with God the longest. And we're gonna know that with certainty one day, but wouldn't it be amazing if we really knew that now?!The stupid man cannot know this! The fool cannot understand this! Because they're fixated on the ephemeral. They only see the here and now. Our perspective, though, is different! And that's the point. The clarity of hindsight is a gift Psalm 92 gives us today.“If I only knew then what I know now” — we don't have to wait to know. What if we lived today in light of heaven? What if we built our lives in this world as if we're looking back on our lives from heaven?That's the invitation this morning. That's what we get to do! And one thing that means, for sure, is that we're gonna praise God. We can't praise him enough! Our whole lives are just Praise! Praise! Praise!“It is good to give thanks to Yahweh, to sing praises to your name, O Most High; to declare your steadfast love in the morning and your faithfulness by night!”And that's what we do now as we come to this Table. The TableWe come to this table to remember the death of Jesus for us, and to rejoice with him in his victory. The one who sings Psalm 92 is the one who triumphed at the cross and empty tomb, and he invites us to share in that triumph.

Purification through humbling ourselves before God leads to incredible joy.Zephaniah 3:9-17Reverend Matt LakeJuly 13, 2025

https://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/Matthew-23_14-Woe-to-the-Wolves-In-Shepherds-Clothing.mp3 Listen as Pastor Matt uncovers the horrifying irony of those who wore the robes of shepherds while devouring the most vulnerable sheep. Each of the synoptic Gospels, Matthew, Mark and Luke, reveals the same chilling indictment: religious hypocrisy dressed in pious theater, preying on widows and the weak. Listen in as Jesus thunders judgment from Ezekiel and Zephaniah, declares covenantal divorce on a corrupt nation, and warns all who dare pose as Shepherds for personal gain: “You will receive greater condemnation.”May we all take refuge in the True Shepherd—the One who doesn't devour His sheep, but lays down His life for them.

In this episode, Joel shares his compelling journey from serving as a political consultant and novelist to making aliyah with his family and residing in Israel. He discusses the October 7th terror attacks, analyzing them not solely as acts of warfare but also as profoundly spiritual, demonic-inspired events. Joel examines the biblical significance of Gaza, contemplating both its history of judgment and God’s persistent love for all inhabitants of the region, including Israelis and Palestinians. Listeners will also be encouraged to join in fervent prayer for all those suffering in the region, along with insights from Scripture regarding Gaza's future. This episode functions as a pertinent reminder of the vital importance of hope, compassion, and prayer during times of crisis.

an expository sermon on Zephaniah 2 preached by Pastor Jordan Atkinson on June 29, 2025

A new MP3 sermon from Anchored In Truth Ministries is now available on SermonAudio with the following details: Title: You'll Have to See It to Believe It Subtitle: Zephaniah Speaker: Jeff Noblit Broadcaster: Anchored In Truth Ministries Event: Sunday Service Date: 6/29/2025 Bible: Zephaniah 3:17-20 Length: 43 min.

God's Heart is Not Hesitant—It's JoyfulLuke 15:10 “There is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.”We are closing out out month on Repentance in mentoring and I think this verse is an important one for us all to know about. God's Heart is Not Hesitant—It's JoyfulWhen we think about coming back to God after failure or sin, we often imagine Him standing at a distance—arms crossed, disappointed, waiting for us to prove we're really sorry. But that is not the God of the Bible. God doesn't forgive reluctantly. He doesn't roll His eyes when we repent. He rejoices. He celebrates. He runs to meet us.Repentance isn't just about our sorrow. It's about God's joy.1. Heaven Celebrates When We ReturnLuke 15:7 “I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent.”This verse is from the parable of the lost sheep, part of a trio of parables Jesus tells in Luke 15: the lost sheep, the lost coin, and the lost son (or prodigal son). In each story, something precious is lost, then found—and each time, there's celebration. Jesus wants us to know that repentance isn't the end of joy—it's the beginning of it. God is not waiting to shame us. He's waiting to rejoice over us. He loves us and wants us to come home. He is so happy when we come home. He is not thinking about what we did when we went away, He is happy that we made the decision to turn back to Him and to come home.2. The Father Doesn't Just Accept the Prodigal—He RunsLuke 15:20 “But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion for him; he ran to his son, threw his arms around him and kissed him.”In the culture Jesus was speaking to, fathers didn't run. Running was undignified. But here, the father represents God Himself, and He breaks cultural norms to embrace His child who is coming home. The verse says that while he was still a long way off…God doesn't wait for us to do all the hard work and then come to us. He sees us trying and making the effort, even if that effort is very small, and He comes running!! He sees us turn to Him, even if it is just the slightest turn, and He comes running. The father doesn't wait for the son to finish his apology speech. He sees his heart, and that's enough.We might think we must explain ourselves and jump through hoops to be accepted back into the family. We, like the prodigal, don't even think we are worthy to be let back into the family. So we come up with a whole justification of why we are asking for forgiveness and explaining why it is ok if we aren't fully forgiven. It is ok if our loved ones want to keep us at a distant.eGod's joy is not based on how perfect your repentance is, but on your desire to return. He knows the moment your heart turns toward Him—and He moves first.3. God's Joy is Greater Than Your GuiltMany people struggle to believe God can be happy to see them after what they've done. They may think: “Sure, He'll forgive me—but He won't be happy about it.”But Scripture paints a different picture.Zephaniah 3:17 “The Lord your God is with you… He will take great delight in you; in His love He will no longer rebuke you, but will rejoice over you with singing.”God delights in you. He doesn't just tolerate you. He doesn't forgive you because He has to—He does it because He wants to. His joy is rooted in love. And repentance restores that relationship, which is cause for celebration.4. God's Kindness is What Draws Us to RepentRomans 2:4 “Do you show contempt for the riches of His kindness, forbearance, and patience, not realizing that God's kindness is intended to lead you to repentance?”God's mercy is not weakness—it's a strategy of love.
He's not trying to trap you in guilt. He's trying to lead you back with compassion, knowing His joy will become your healing.5. Joy Is Mutual: God Rejoices, and So Do WeWhen we repent, God rejoices—but we're invited into joy, too.Psalm 51:12 “Restore to me the joy of your salvation and grant me a willing spirit, to sustain me.”True repentance leads to freedom, not fear. The weight of sin is lifted. Relationship is restored. Joy is revived. God's joy becomes your joy.What Does This Mean for Us Today?If you've wandered, God is not angry—He's waiting with joy.If you feel ashamed, know that God's delight is greater than your past.If someone else is returning to God, don't question their worthiness—celebrate with heaven.If you're leading others, reflect God's posture: compassion, welcome, and joy over repentance.Dear Heavenly Father, I ask that you bless each one of us today. Lord, we want to believe that you rejoice when we repent. Please help us. Please soften our hearts towards you and allow us to see you as the loving father instead of the angry judge. Help us to turn to you when we mess up. Help us come back to you every time. We love you, Lord, and we ask all of this in accordance with your will and in Jesus's holy name, Amen!Thank you so much for joining me on this journey to walk boldly with Jesus. I want to thank you also for your patience as I navigate this difficult season we are in right now with one of our sons. Things are stressful and unpredictable, and I appreciate your patience if I need to replay an episode instead of recording a new one or if I miss a day here and there due to all that is going on. I am doing my best to release new episodes, and when I'm unable to do so, I use ones from when the podcast first came out, as many of you weren't listening back then. Hopefully, they are still new to you. I also wanted to mention my annual retreat in October. It will be at the same place we had it for the last two years. It will be the same weekend, the second weekend in October. However, this year it will be from Saturday morning until Sunday night. Just one overnight. People hit a lot of traffic coming in Friday night last year so this year we will hopefully avoid all that traffic. I will get the registration site up and running soon so you can check out all the details. I will let you know when it is ready! I look forward to meeting you here again tomorrow. Remember, Jesus loves you just as you are, and so do I! Have a blessed day.Today's Word from the Lord was received in November / December 2024 by a member of my Catholic Charismatic Prayer Group. If you have any questions about the prayer group, these words, or how to join us for a meeting, please email CatholicCharismaticPrayerGroup@gmail.com.

an expository sermon on Zephaniah 1 preached by Pastor Jordan Atkinson on June 22, 2025

It's Monday, June 23rd, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Christian persecution pervades Christian-majority nations in Africa & Latin America Many Christians across Africa and Latin America continue to suffer for their faith because of Islamic oppression, dictatorial paranoia, and criminal cartel organizations, reports International Christian Concern. Large populations in Cuba, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Mexico, Mozambique, Nicaragua, and Nigeria are predominantly Christian. Yet, many Christ followers in these nations are often brutally attacked for following Christ, and their governments are failing to protect them.  In Congo, Christians represent 95% of the nation's population, yet they are being slaughtered at alarming rates. Much of the killing is being done by Islamist groups like ISIS-DRC, also known as the Allied Democratic Forces. Likewise, in Mozambique, 62% of the population is composed of Christians, yet Islamic extremists still target them for their faith. According to Open Doors, these extremists have “target[ed] Christian places of worship, abducted religious leaders, and killed numerous believers.”  And in Cuba, the Catholic Church estimates that 60% of the population practices Catholicism. Cuban churches that publicly oppose the government's human rights abuses are targeted by authorities for harassment and intimidation. British House of Commons passes dangerous bill legalizing assisted suicide Members of the British House of Commons voted Friday to pass a dangerous bill to legalize assisted suicide, reports LifeNews.com. In a vote of 314 to 291, Members of Parliament put their stamp of approval on the bill that will likely result in pressuring disabled and elderly people to kill themselves. Isaiah 59:7 says, “Their feet rush into sin; they are swift to shed innocent blood. They pursue evil schemes; acts of violence mark their ways.” Tim Dieppe, Head of Policy at Christian Concern, was outraged. DIEPPE: “Once you legalize assisted suicide, you will put pressure on vulnerable people. Vulnerable people will feel like they're a burden to others. People will be suggesting assisted suicide. Doctors could suggest it. I mean, that's horrific. You know, my wife died of cancer three years ago. I can't imagine what it would be like if her consultant had suggested suicide.” Labour legislator Diane Abbott said she's concerned that for-profit companies will run assisted dying businesses that take advantage of killing people for money. Members of Parliament had only 10 hours to consider over 130 amendments to the bill, or less than 5 minutes per change. America bombed Iran's nuclear facilities On Saturday, the U.S. military bombed three sites in Iran, directly joining Israel's effort to decapitate the country's nuclear program in a risky gambit to weaken a longtime foe amid Tehran's threat of reprisals that could spark a wider regional conflict, reports the Associated Press. TRUMP: “A short time ago, the US military carried out massive precision strikes on the three key nuclear facilities in the Iranian regime: Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan. Everybody heard those names for years as they built this horribly destructive enterprise. Our objective was the destruction of Iran's nuclear enrichment capacity and a stop to the nuclear threat posed by the world's number one state sponsor of terror. “Tonight, I can report to the world that the strikes were a spectacular military success. Iran's key nuclear enrichment facilities have been completely and totally obliterated. Iran, the bully of the Middle East, must now make peace. If they do not, future attacks will be far greater and a lot easier. For 40 years, Iran has been saying, ‘Death to America, Death to Israel.'” The decision to directly involve the U.S. in the war comes after more than a week of strikes by Israel on Iran that aimed to systematically eradicate the country's air defenses and offensive missile capabilities, while damaging its nuclear enrichment facilities. TRUMP: “I want to thank and congratulate [Israeli] Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu. We worked as a team like perhaps no team has ever worked before, and we've gone a long way to erasing this horrible threat to Israel. I want to thank the Israeli military for the wonderful job they've done. And most importantly, I want to congratulate the great American patriots who flew those magnificent machines tonight and all of the United States military on an operation the likes of which the world has not seen in many, many decades.” (Learn more about the timeline that led up to America's bombing of Iran's nuclear facilities.) Iran threatens to block Strait of Hormuz, blocking 20% of oil shipments In response, Iran is reportedly saying it will block the Strait of Hormuz and stop oil shipments for what amounts to 20% of the world's daily oil flow and up to $1 billion, which will send oil prices soaring globally, reports NewsMax. Needless to say, Iran has no legal authority to block traffic through Hormuz, and blockage would mean direct combat with U.S. naval assets, including the U.S. Fifth Fleet warships patrolling the region. Dear Lord, We pray for peace. Amen. The 30,000-pound bunker bomb that made the difference In a post on TruthSocial, Trump said, “There is not another military in the world that could have done this. NOW IS THE TIME FOR PEACE!” Indeed, America's 30,000-pound bunker buster bomb offered the best chance of destroying heavily fortified sites connected to the Iranian nuclear program buried deep underground. Appearing on ABC News, Retired Lt. General Doug Lute explained. LUTE: “The original purpose of building this bomb was actually concern about the North Korean deeply buried nuclear related sites. So, this didn't originally have anything to do with Iran. But most recently, it's the only bomb in our inventory, or frankly, in the global inventory, that promises some prospect of actually penetrating the mountainside in which the crown jewel of the Iranian nuclear program, the Fordow site, is located. So, this is our best technological advantage in terms of trying to get to that site.” 90% of Trump Republicans say “Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon” Appearing on Fox News Channel with Dana Perino, Chris Stirewalt summarized Trump's mindset about Iran. STIREWALT: “I think that Donald Trump has never wavered from the ultimate objective, which is that the Iranian nuclear program has to end. It has to be dismantled. It has to be destroyed. The only question has been whether it's done militarily or whether it's done voluntarily. “He gave them a 60-day deadline. They let the deadline pass, and so Israel began bombing on Day 61 and now he is basically holding out. ‘This is your last chance. The time for negotiation is over. There's not going to be any kind of deal.' “This is a question of whether Iran cries ‘amo,' which is Persian for ‘uncle,' and allows U.S. to come in and blow up Fordow from the inside, or we do it from without, from the skies above, with B2 bombers. But I think there is zero chance that the Fordow nuclear facility survives this encounter.” Stirewalt asserted that the Make America Great Again crowd is supportive of Trump's decision to bomb Iran. STIREWALT: “The idea that there's a schism in the Republican Party, or that the Trump Coalition is breaking up is completely absurd. The Reagan Institute is coming out with a new poll this weekend. 90% of self-described [Make America Great Again] Republicans say Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon. 80% say that Israel's security is vital to our security. 64% support Israel bombing the nuclear facilities. There is absolutely no daylight between Donald Trump and the  [Make America Great Again] movement. The MAGA movement is absolutely behind Donald Trump in getting rid of this nuclear program.” On Truth Social, President Trump posted, “I gave Iran chance after chance to make a deal.” He concluded, “This is an historic moment for the United States of America, Israel, and the world. Iran must now agree to end this war.” Texas answers  “What is a Woman?” in state law Last Friday, Texas Republican Governor Greg Abbott signed into law the “What is a Woman Bill” also known as House Bill 229, reports Texas Values. Now, in Texas, men can no longer pretend to be women. The law accurately defines the terms “man”, “woman”, “boy”, and “girl” by scientific definitions and biological reality. The effect would be that biological  women will have their rights, opportunities, and privacy protected by law. Genesis 1:27 states,  “So God created mankind in His own image, in the image of God He created them; male and female He created them.” While Texas already has laws protecting women's sports, there have been many other threats to women's prisons, sororities, and private spaces like locker rooms.  Hockey player gives glory to God after winning Stanley Cup The Russian-born goaltender of the National Hockey League's Florida Panthers, Sergei Bobrovsky, gave glory to God upon his victory after his team won the famed Stanley Cup, the championship trophy in the NHL, for the second year in a row, reports LifeSiteNews.com. REPORTER: “What makes this one special?” BOBROVSKY: “I mean, it's amazing feeling, and I want to say glory to the father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit. I want to thank him for everything I have, for my parents, for my family.” Worldview listener in California is grateful the whole family can listen I invited Worldview listeners to share what they enjoy about the newscast in 2-6 sentences by email.  You can share your thoughts — along with your full name, city and state — and send it to adam@TheWorldview.com Carri Andry in Morgan Hill, California wrote, “Hi Adam!

Article 4: The Canonical Books We include in the Holy Scripture the two volumes of the Old and New Testaments. They are canonical books with which there can be no quarrel at all. In the church of God the list is as follows: In the Old Testament, the five books of Moses— Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy; the books of Joshua, Judges, and Ruth; the two books of Samuel, and two of Kings; the two books of Chronicles, called Paralipomenon; the first book of Ezra; Nehemiah, Esther, Job; the Psalms of David; the three books of Solomon— Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, and the Song; the four major prophets— Isaiah, Jeremiah*, Ezekiel, Daniel; and then the other twelve minor prophets— Hosea, Joel, Amos, Obadiah, Jonah, Micah, Nahum, Habakkuk, Zephaniah, Haggai, Zechariah, Malachi. In the New Testament, the four gospels— Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John; the Acts of the Apostles; the fourteen letters of Paul— to the Romans; the two letters to the Corinthians; to the Galatians, Ephesians, Philippians, and Colossians; the two letters to the Thessalonians; the two letters to Timothy; to Titus, Philemon, and to the Hebrews; the seven letters of the other apostles— one of James; two of Peter; three of John; one of Jude; and the Revelation of the apostle John. * "Jeremiah" here includes the Book of Lamentations as well as the Book of Jeremiah. Article 5: The Authority of Scripture We receive all these books and these only as holy and canonical, for the regulating, founding, and establishing of our faith. And we believe without a doubt all things contained in them— not so much because the church receives and approves them as such but above all because the Holy Spirit testifies in our

Straight out of today’s headlines, Zephaniah prophesies where Israel’s future is going—a true revelation of God’s mind and heart…

God Is The Ultimate Provider And Protector, Not The Might Of Men Zephaniah 2:13-15 13He will stretch out his hand against the north and destroy Assyria, leaving Nineveh utterly desolate and dry as the desert. 14Flocks and herds will lie down there, creatures of every kind. The desert owl and the screech owl will roost on her columns. Their hooting will echo through the windows, rubble will fill the doorways, the beams of cedar will be exposed. 15This is the city of revelry that lived in safety. She said to herself, “I am the one! And there is none besides me.” What a ruin she has become, a lair for wild beasts! All who pass by her scoff and shake their fists.

Pastor Brian shares from Psalm 68:5, 1 Thessalonians 2:11-12, Zephaniah 3:17, 2 Timothy 4:1-8

This past week many family and friends gathered to cheer for their graduates, shouting out their name, squeezing air horns, and snapping pictures to help capture moments of celebration, relief, and joy. The graduates were smiling from ear to ear, with a great sense of accomplishment, as their loved ones doted upon them. The Good News reminds us that we have a God who rejoices over us like that -- but not due to anything we have done or accomplished, yet simply because of His eternal love. This Sunday we turn to Zephaniah and see the God who was with the people of Judah, despite their sins, and who silenced sin and disorder with His love and faithfulness. This is our "God with us" who rejoices over us (Zeph.3:14-20). Let us come and rejoice, for our great God is with us!

Are You Listening To God And His Word? Zephaniah 1:1-2 1The word of the Lord that came to Zephaniah son of Cushi, the son of Gedaliah, the son of Amariah, the son of Hezekiah, during the reign of Josiah son of Amon king of Judah: Judgment on the Whole Earth in the Day of the Lord 2“I will sweep away everything from the face of the earth,” “When I destroy all mankind on the face of the earth,”

Let Nothing Get In The Way Of Placing God First Zephania 1:4-6 4“I will stretch out my hand against Judah and against all who live in Jerusalem. I will destroy every remnant of Baal worship in this place, the very names of the idolatrous priests— 5those who bow down on the roofs to worship the starry host, those who bow down and swear by the Lord and who also swear by Molek, 6those who turn back from following the Lord and neither seek the Lord nor inquire of him.”

God's judgment is hanging over the nations, unlike any time in our life time. The Doomsday clock approaches midnight. Rogue states have added access to nuclear arms. Pakistan, India, Iran, Russia, and China are about as irritated as they have ever been. We take this from a biblical worldview perspective, applying Romans 3 to the Ayatollah and North Korea's president. Not good. Not good. But, is nuclear war survivable? Will God shelter us in the day of His wrath, per Zephaniah 2:3? Big questions to answer here. This program includes: 1.

Zephaniah prophecies against Jerusalem—even God’s own people in God’s own city—can (and do) revolt against Him. Here’s what God has to say about it…

God speaks to Zephaniah, and it's horrifying. God has determined that He is going to judge Judah, the nations, even Jerusalem for their rebellion against God. God points out their rebellion in the way they have turned away and worship idols, they compromise and syncretize with false gods, which ultimately leads to the complacent attitude: God is not going to do anything good or bad to me. Judah and the nations dictate their own lives, their own way, in essence believing that it's our day! The LORD declares instead it's My day, the Day of the LORD. We will examine what the Day of the LORD is likened unto: (Zeph:1:15-16). The Day of the LORD shows no partiality to race, gender, socio-economic standing, it will be the day of all encompassing punishment against all sinners. There is no power, possessions, pedigree, nothing that can protect them from the Day of the LORD. His righteousness is as the Sun, consuming all that stand before Him. (Zeph 3:8)Who wants to hear this, let alone be the one to deliver the message? But who needs to hear this? Everyone. Zephaniah delivers an unpopular message, but it is what God has said, it is what God will do, and it is honoring to God, and one of the most loving things he can do to others is to warn them before they face the edge of the cliff. We who claim to be Christians - we too have a message from God, even more clear and sure! We are called to be Zephaniahs in our day!Will anyone heed the warning from God, and seek His Kingdom first and humble themselves? For those who do the Day of the LORD will be for them a day of protection (Zeph 2:3) a day of restoring of fortunes (2:7) a day The Lord has rendered His righteous justice (2:8 - 3:8), and the Day when the LORD transforms those who have surrendered to Him. It will be the LORD who will transform them, there will be no division, no deceit, no lack, no fear in them, rather they will be transformed to singing, worshipping, and loud exultation - and the LORD Himself will sing with them and over them. For those who have sought His Kingdom first, the Day of the LORD will be their reward for surely they will be with the One in whom they trusted.The Day of the LORD, just as He declared had come to Nineveh in 612 B.C., approx. 30 years after Zephaniah had delivered God's Word, Babylon came and decimated them. It was only a 20years later that the Day of the LORD visited Judah as they were conquered and began the Babylonian exile. In the midst of the day of the LORD, we know there are those who have been hidden by God, Daniel, Ezra, Esther, Nehemiah -.So too, the Day of the LORD has come as demonstrated on the Cross as Jesus Christ took our judgment and purchased our salvation, our protection, our justification. But there is still the Day of the LORD to come - just as God has forewarned through Zephaniah, Joel, Daniel, Matthew, Revelation. Let us therefore, heed God and live continually mindful of the Day of the LORD!
