Name: Prophet, Priest, & Judge | Yahweh is Greater, 1 Sam 5:1-12 | Week 9 by ZION SI
Duration: 31 min 36 s
Description: After Israel’s defeat, the Philistines captured the Ark and placed it in their temple as a trophy, symbolizing their god’s victory over Israel’s. But God will not be mocked. Like the Ark, Jesus was mocked and presumed defeated, but while in the grave, He was conquering. Every idol, every power, every lie falls before Him. So don’t just let God reside, let Him rule. Tear down every rival.

We’re talking about money, but not the way the world does. God owns it all, and we’re called to use it for His purposes, not just our own. Ready for a heart check? Let’s learn what it really means to store up treasure in heaven! Listen to hear more!


Tithing: A Right View of Money | Week 1

This week, we’re talking about tithing and how it reveals the way we see the church. Is it God’s house or just another stop on your weekly to-do list? When we give, we’re not just funding a building we’re fueling a mission. Let’s shift from consumers to co-laborers and give in a way that honors Jesus. Listen in to hear more.


Tithing: A Right View of Church | Week 2

We’re talking about something that’s both biblical and practical supporting those who serve in ministry. Scripture says the worker is worthy of their wages, and our giving isn’t just obedience, it's a blessing to the Church and to ourselves. This isn’t about guilt—it’s about growth. Let’s rethink our financial faithfulness in light of God’s design for His Church.

Tithing: A Right View of Laborers | Week 3

This week’s message is all about reclaiming a missional mindset—where giving isn’t a side thought, but a shared responsibility. Mission isn’t for a few; it’s for all of us. Let’s give not out of guilt, but from grace—because this mission is ours to carry, and ours to finish.


Tithing: A Right View of Missions | Week 4

 This week’s message is all about reclaiming a missional mindset—where giving isn’t a side thought, but a shared responsibility. Mission isn’t for a few; it’s for all of us. Let’s give not out of guilt, but from grace—because this mission is ours to carry, and ours to finish.


Prophet, Priest, & Judge | Samuel's Call, 1 Sam 3:1-21 | Week 6

This week’s message comes straight from Ephesians 2:1–10—a clear picture of the Gospel. We were dead in our sins, but God made us alive in Christ. It’s all grace, not works, and now we’ve been created for good—so let’s live like it!

Baptism Sunday

This week’s message is a sobering one—God’s judgment falls on those who try to use His presence while ignoring their own disobedience. God isn’t a tool for personal gain. True faith begins with repentance, surrender, and letting Jesus be Lord over every part of our lives—not just the parts we’re comfortable with.

Prophet, Priest, & Judge | Woe to us!, 1 Sam 4:1-11 | Week 7

This week, we’re going back to the beginning,Genesis 1–3, to remember the story we so often forget. Like Israel, we lose sight of who God is and who we are: created with purpose, broken by sin, and desperately in need of rescue. The Good News? We can’t save ourselves, but Jesus already has.

The Gospel We Keep Forgetting

After Israel’s defeat, the Philistines captured the Ark and placed it in their temple as a trophy, symbolizing their god’s victory over Israel’s. But God will not be mocked. Like the Ark, Jesus was mocked and presumed defeated, but while in the grave, He was conquering. Every idol, every power, every lie falls before Him. So don’t just let God reside, let Him rule. Tear down every rival.

Prophet, Priest, & Judge | Yahweh is Greater, 1 Sam 5:1-12 | Week 9

The Ark returns to Israel,but this moment reveals more than just a homecoming. It shows us how both outsiders and insiders misunderstand God’s holiness. We don’t worship Him on our terms. When God exposes us, it’s not to shame us,it’s to draw us closer through repentance, purity, and reverence. He’s a God who loves deeply and judges rightly.Every lie falls before Him. So don’t just let God reside,let Him rule. Tear down every rival.
