    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Nov 18, 2018
     | 8,754 views

    We see the unfolding of God's will and the outworking of God's works in fulfilling His will. God raised Ezra, the man of God's Law, to bring about the next phrase of restoration - spiritual reformation and renewal.

    Finally, we have Ezra appearing in the book that bears his name. Chapter 7. • We ended chapter 6 with the completion and the dedication of the Temple of God, led by Zerubbabel and Jeshua, under the reign of Darius. • This was made possible because of the move of God (1) through the preaching ...read more

    See Ezra's prayer of confession. We acknowledge God's righteousness, submit to His judgement and agree with God concerning His view of sin. We trust in God's forgiving grace.

    Ezra 8 – Return to Jerusalem (from Babylon). Ezra returned with 4000 to 5000 people. Initially there weren’t any Levites among them and Ezra made an extra effort to gather them • He knew that he would need the Levites if he is going to teach the Law of God to the people.

     | 6,806 views

    The Lord moves a whole Empire to make sure that it is possible for His people to come home from Babylon. No matter what we have done God cares for us and He will fulfil all His promises as He brings us back from the homeward journey.

    Message The First Steps Home Ezra 1:1-11 Today we are going to make a start on a new sermon series. The series is called Jexit. You might ask, “Well what is that?” Well we know what Brexit is … the attempt of England to leave the European Union. Jexit is the focus in history when Judah exists ...read more

  • You Are Named Series

    Contributed by Allan Quak on Jan 1, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,868 views

    This chapter just seems to be a list of names – it is not. The naming of all the people who returned is a reminder that God cares for His people no matter what situation we are in, because we are always named.

    Message Ezra 2:1-70 You Are Named If you are a visitor here today we have only just started a sermon series which is called Jexit. And you are thinking, “Well that is a bit of a strange name … Jexit. But the name comes from the word Brexit where Britain is trying to leave the European ...read more

     | 6,356 views

    We all have times in life when we have had a spiritual high. Invariably the high is followed by challenges that lead to frustration and frustration that leads to distraction. This distraction can lead us away from serving God in full strength. That is the definition of Post-Spiritual High Syndrome.

    Jexit - Judah Comes Home Post Spiritual High Syndrome Ezra 4:1-5 In your life, most of us, maybe not all of us, have gone through this experience is what I call the Post-Spiritual-High-Syndrome.

  • The 70 Year Limit Series

    Contributed by Allan Quak on Jan 1, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,865 views

    We might think that the 70 years Judah spent in exile is a long time for the people to be under the anger of God. However the post exile events and interactions between God and His people demonstrates that God graciously limited His punishment to only 70 years. God is a forgiving God.

    Jexit: Judah Comes Home The 70 Year Limit A sermon on Ezra 6:13-18 The last time we looked at what was happening to the returned Exiles it was the 7th December 518BC. And Zechariah was talking with the Jews about the fact that the Lord was giving them the opportunity to move forward. The past, ...read more

     | 7,098 views

    When we do God's work, we can expect opposition. We don't have to be discouraged. God will finish what He has started.

    We started Ezra 1 with the move of God and the edict of King Cyrus, and the start of a long and difficult journey for the exiles returning back to Jerusalem. • In Ezra 2 we have the list of the returning exiles, by families and towns, and the various roles they play. • In Ezra 3 we saw the altar ...read more

  • The Move Of God Series

     | 7,698 views

    God moves the remnant through Haggai and Zechariah to restart the rebuilding of the Temple of God. He assures and encourages them.

    The rebuilding of the Temple of God came to a halt, because of the harassment from the Samaritans and the pressure from the Persian officials. • And it stopped for 16 years, until the 2nd year of King Darius’ reign. With the Temple unbuilt, God was left out of their mind and their lives. • The ...read more

    The change that revival brings is UNCOMFORTABLE. Real revival will reach inside you and DESTROY everything. You will be WRECKED with a deeper understanding of the gospel and a more passionate relationship with Jesus. You will be purged of known sin.
