A Prayer of Remembrance: 25 Years Later
Almighty and Sovereign God, Creator and Preserver of all things,
Today, as we mark twenty-five years since the tragedy of September 11, 2001, we bow before Your holy throne to remember and seek Your face. We remember the precious lives cut short, the profound sorrow that entered thousands of homes, and the selfless bravery of the first responders who willingly ran toward danger to save others.
In a fallen and broken world where wickedness and grief so often shake earthly foundations, we confess that our only true comfort, in life and in death, belongs to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. You alone are the eternal God; from everlasting to everlasting, Your throne stands unshakable. Though nations rage and the earth gives way, nothing falls outside Your sovereign hand and holy providence.
We lift up every family and community that still bears the quiet ache of loss a quarter-century later. Draw near to the brokenhearted, bind up their wounds, and grant them the peace that surpasses all human understanding. May those who grieve find their ultimate refuge beneath the shadow of Your wings.
Teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts to heavenly wisdom. Deliver our hearts from fear, steadfastly fixing our eyes on the hope of the gospel. Keep Your church faithful as a city on a hill—proclaiming Your truth, extending Your mercy, and resting securely in the promise that Christ has overcome the world.
We offer this prayer in the name of our Lord, Redeemer, and King, Jesus Christ.
Amen

Today we honor and remember the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our country. We thank God for their sacrifice and pray for the families who carry both the pride and the sorrow of their loss.
“Greater love has no one than this, that one lay down his life for his friends.” — John 15:13 (LSB)
As we gather with family and friends, may we never forget those who paid the ultimate price for the freedoms we enjoy. May we also remember our greatest hope is found in the Lord Jesus Christ, who conquered sin and death for His people.
From all of us at Reformed Bible Church, we pray you have a blessed and meaningful Memorial Day.

As the Lord’s Day draws to a close this Pentecost Sunday, we at Reformed Bible Church pause to reflect on the historical, redemptive reality of the outpouring of the Holy Spirit.
Pentecost marks the glorious fulfillment of Christ’s promise to His Church. In our faith and worship, we confess the essential biblical truth that the Holy Spirit eternally proceeds from the Father and the Son. He is the Lord and Giver of life, sent to effectually apply the redemption purchased by Christ, working through the unchangeable Word to bring the elect to saving faith.

Rather than looking inward to human emotion or experiences, we look to the objective truth of Scripture and the sovereign power of God displayed in Acts 2:1–4:
"When the day of Pentecost arrived, they were all together in one place. And suddenly there came from heaven a sound like a mighty rushing wind, and it filled the entire house where they were sitting. And divided tongues as of fire appeared to them and rested on each one of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit gave them utterance."

The same Holy Spirit who illuminated the minds of the apostles and empowered the preaching of the gospel that day continues to preserve, instruct, and sanctify His Church today. May you rest in His sustaining grace and the absolute authority of Scripture as we step into the week ahead.

He is Risen! A Blessed Resurrection Sunday from Reformed Bible Church

Today we celebrate the glorious historical reality of the empty tomb. Christ’s resurrection is the final seal of our justification and the bedrock of our living hope. Because He lives, the infinite debt of our sin has been fully paid, and we are clothed in His perfect righteousness!

"But in fact Christ has been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep. For as by a man came death, by a man has come also the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall all be made alive." (1 Cor. 15:20-22, ESV)

Join us this morning as we exalt our risen Savior and rest our hope entirely on the perfect Word of God. Christ is risen indeed!

Church Family,

It is with heavy hearts that we ask you to join us in prayer for our local law enforcement and our neighboring communities. On Monday afternoon and into Tuesday morning, a profound tragedy unfolded in Christian County. Two sheriff's deputies were killed in the line of duty, and two others were wounded.

Deputy Gabriel Ramirez (30) was fatally shot during a traffic stop near Highlandville. Hours later, during a shootout with the suspect, Deputy Michael Hislope (40) was killed while courageously trying to reach and rescue his wounded fellow officers. Both of these men were Army veterans who had served overseas in combat before returning home to protect and serve our community here in Missouri.

We also lift up in prayer Christian County Deputy Josh Wahl and Webster County Deputy Austin McCall, who were both wounded in the exchange and are currently recovering.

In times of senseless violence and profound loss, we turn to the truth of Scripture, resting in the sovereign providence of God. We know that God has ordained the civil magistrate to bear the sword for the public good, to protect the innocent, and to maintain justice. These men laid down their lives in the faithful ex*****on of that duty.

"Greater love has no one than this, that one lay down his life for his friends" (John 15:13).

As a church body, let us weep with those who weep. Pray earnestly for the wives, children, and families of Deputy Ramirez and Deputy Hislope, whose lives have been forever altered. Pray that the God of all comfort would draw near to them in this dark valley.

"The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit" (Psalm 34:18).

May we honor their sacrifice, and may we continually pray for the safety of all those who put on the uniform to keep our communities safe.

"And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth." — John 1:14

Today we do not merely celebrate a birth, but the Incarnation. The infinite God took on a true human nature, yet without sin, to be the perfect Mediator for His people. We rejoice that Christ humbled Himself to secure our redemption.
Soli Deo Gloria.
