1 Samuel: Prophet, Priest and King!

Intro to Samuel: A Plea in Barren Times

This is our second sermon in our study in 1 Samuel, and we see Hannah fulfill her vow to God and God establish His Word in the life of young Samuel.

Hannah Fulfills Her Vow

In this sermon we begin to look to Hannah's Prayer in 1 Samuel 2.  We see that she looked to God as her saviour and also saw God as the matchless one who is holy and above all others.

Hannah's Song (part 1)

In this sermon we continue to look at Hannah's hymn and prayer to God.  We see that God is the Sovereign creator and judge over all the earth who will execute perfect justice and righteousness, a promise fulfilled in Christ our glorious King!

Hannah's Song (part 2)

In this sermon we finish up our three part series on Hannah's prayer.  Hannah praised God because He guards the feet of His faithful ones and also establishes His anointed and conquering King.

Hannah's Song (part 3)

"Let my heart be sound in Thy Statues: that I be not ashamed"   (Psalm 119:80).

 

We may regard this inspired prayer as containing within itself the assurance that those who keep close to the Word of God shall never have cause to be ashamed of doing so.

 

See, the prayer is for soundness of heart. A sound creed is good, a sound judgment concerning it is better, but a sound heart toward the truth is best of all. We must love the truth, feel the truth, and obey the truth, otherwise we are not truly sound in God's statutes. Are there many in these evil days who are sound? Oh, that the writer and the reader may be two of this sort!

 

Many will be ashamed in the last great day, when all disputes will be decided. Then they will see the folly of their inventions and be filled with remorse because of their proud infidelity and willful defiance of the LORD; but he who believed what the LORD taught and did what the LORD commanded will stand forth justified in what he did. Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun. Men much slandered and abused shall find their shame turned into glory in that day.

 

Let us pray the prayer of our text, and we may be sure that its promise will be fulfilled to us. If the LORD makes us sound, He will keep us safe.

June 19 A Sound Heart

In this sermon we look at the devastating account of 1 Samuel chapter 4.  All that God promised Eli comes to pass in a single day, the Lord brings swift judgement upon the house of Eli and even the ark of God is taken by the Philistines!  But, in the midst of dark times for God's people, we see that God is still working His plan of redemption and showing Himself high above all the gods of the nations.

The Lord Departs! (1 Samuel 4)

This is the second part of my conversation with my dear brother and mentor in the faith Kevin Malcolm.  Tune in as Kevin shares about his desire and struggle to use his love for music and song writing to the glory of God alone and likewise to the edification of the church.  As God has delivered him from the world of drugs, wickedness and the pride of life, God is now shining the light of the gospel through his gifts and talents!

Ep 15 Kevin's Story Part 2

Micah shares  his catechism practice and also about some exciting things happening in life!

Talk with Micah!

In this sermon we look at the third beatitude that Luke records for us which is "Blessed are those who weep now for you shall laugh".  We consider some ungodly forms of sorrow and then also some godly forms of sorrow as seen in the Scripture.
