Synopsis: In the story of Jesus’ birth from Luke 2, we are left with these closing words: “But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart.” Words very similar to those of her ancestor grandfather, David, we just read in Psalm 119. She treasured them and pondered them in her heart just like she treasured the writings of David.

November 17: Heaven Loosed on Earth

Join us to worship the Lord this Sunday, November 17 at 9:30 a.m. Pastor Brett’s sermon is titled: “Heaven Loosed on Earth.” Our scriptures include Philippians 2:1-11, Revelation 5:1-8, and Revelation 5:9-14.

Synopsis: John’s vision of heaven continues and God’s plan for the new heaven and new earth begins to play out in heaven.  Our passage from Philippians tells us, “…at the name of Jesus, every knee shall bow.”  This is truly the beginning of God’s will occurring on earth, heaven being let loose on the earth.  When we pray, “thy kingdom come,” we are truly praying for God to come down from heaven again and overcome sin once and for all.  We are praying for Jesus to take the scroll and to break open the seals one by one.
