Steady Sojourners - 1 Peter 1:13-25

Proverbs 4, shows the love of a father telling the next generation of God's people how to live well (4b), to be at peace (16), to not stumble and suffer because of foolish choices (19), to experience healing spiritually and mentally (22), to be focused (25), and to have stability throughout their lives (26). He says the key to living in this way is by growing in wisdom, because it is only through wisdom that we can navigate life well.

As we listen to the father's words, we will begin to understand our need for wisdom and determine to get it, and as we walk on this wise path that the father has established, his wisdom will be revealed in and through us.

Everyone wants to be happy. We all seek happiness, and the options for our pursuit are seemingly endless. However, we were MADE to rejoice and be glad, in God. Conversely, for those who run after other paths to joy, other god’s, their sorrows will multiply.

So, how can I find joy in God? Psalm 15-16 present to us God’s answer by giving us what we may call, the path of Gospel Joy. Finding refuge in Him, we share in His salvation and eternal blessings. The result? Joy now and forever.

Psalms 11 through 14 are a collection of prayers to be sung by the gathered church. These Psalms recount David's struggle with his enemies and his commitment to trust in God in every circumstance.

With the help of the Holy Spirit, through these Psalms we will grow to discern the path of the righteous from the path of the wicked.

How do you live and respond in a wicked society? Psalms 10 tells us that we should look to God, to see the wicked correctly, and then in turn act accordingly.

Join us as we look to Psalm 10 and take an honest examination of ourselves and aim to see the fallen world we live in from God's perspective.
