How To Thirst For God

Contributed by David Scudder on Dec 4, 2011

Psalms 58 And 109 Series

Contributed by Sam Mccormick on Mar 5, 2020

The outrage expressed in passages in these psalms are examples of times David seemed to be "fed up" with his enemies. He pours out his fury to God, not intending for his Father to act on the ills he calls for, but for God to see the passion poisoning his heart and send relief.

For Sermon Central researchers: I have posted a series of 15 sermons on the Psalms. In recent personal studies I have found the psalms to be richer and more thought-provoking than I had fully appreciated. I had too often swept swiftly through psalms without slowing down to inquire as thoroughly as ...read more

Series: Recovering Stolen Identity & Reclaiming Misplaced Destiny: Part 6: The Samson Story: "an Example Of A Partially Fulfilled Destiny

Contributed by Jeremiah Menyongai on Mar 10, 2020

The Story Of Samson Is One Of The Saddest In The Bible. David, Elijah, Peter, Moses, Jacob, all came back. Samson did, but partially. He was gifted to be God’s man in Israel’s critical hour. But he misused his privilege and partially fulfilled his mission - an example for us all.

Palm Sunday - 2020 - Thy Kingdom Come - The Lord's Prayer - Part 2 Series

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Apr 4, 2020

Should we be celebrating with the disciples who were waving palm branches and shouting "Hosanna to the Son of David" or should we be weeping over Jerusalem like Jesus? This naturally combines with "Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done ..." from the Lord's prayer.

Today is Palm Sunday, the day we set aside to remember what many call “The Triumphal Entry” of Jesus into Jerusalem. Where do we find that?

Thanksgiving Focus Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 10, 2021

David starts this Psalm by telling himself to praise the Lord, and he ends it by telling himself to do it again. If we would tell ourselves as we begin the day to praise the Lord and not forget all His benefits, and if we would end the day by doing the same, we would be different people.

You will, no doubt, think me strange for saying it, but I am thankful for my ignorance. It gives me so much to be thankful for. My vast ocean of ignorance is my playground where I can fish for new insights, and I can dive for the sunken treasure of golden truths that lay hidden in God's Word. ...read more

Psalm 23:6, ‘Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.’ The confession of David could be our desire. We would like to have these two divine blessings in our life. But we struggle to have them.

Psalm 23:6 - “Shall follow me” Happy New month to all of you. The Lord is good and his love never ends.

In Pursuit Of Portion

Contributed by Joe Dan Vendelin on Mar 23, 2024

Our life's pursuits ultimately define us. King David was a man after God's own heart. King Solomon ultimately pursued other things. Being in pursuit of God as your portion will lead you into the fullness of His goodness today as well as for an eternity.

King David said, “??O LORD, You are the portion of my inheritance and my cup; ??You maintain my lot.” Psalm 16:5 The word for portion in Hebrew is manâ (Strong’s H4490), and it is translated as part or portion. It’s used 14 times. In most of these instances, it refers to the portion of an ...read more
