Lord's Day Recap:

Are you carrying the weight of guilt over past failures, hidden struggles, or sins you cannot seem to let go of? This past Sunday, Pastor Chip walked us through Psalm 65, where King David — a world leader unafraid to expose his own failures — shows us that God's sovereignty extends even over our deepest self-condemnation.

The same God who established the mountains, commands the seas, and orders the rising of the sun is sovereign over your guilt. As Romans 8:1 reminds us, there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. The atonement David pointed to in Psalm 65:3 finds its ultimate fulfillment in Christ, the Lamb slain before the foundation of the world.

Sovereign grace triumphs over self-guilt every single day. If you missed Sunday's message, come join us and hear how God's grace is greater than anything you are carrying.

When sin prevails in the life of the believer, we can still rest in God's Sovereign grace vs. imprisoning ourself in guilt.

The arm of flesh looms large, but God wounds the wicked with one verse after five of buildup. Open the eyes of your heart. See His hand in everything. Then celebrate and sing — not after the victory, but before it. Psalm 64.

10/15/2026

When the arm of flesh looms large — through lies, gossip, fear, anxiety, or enemies that seem insurmountable — it is easy to lose sight of something far greater: the hand of God.

In Psalm 64, David paints a vivid picture of wicked forces at work, then with a single verse turns the entire scene on its head. God acts. The battle is over. What seemed overwhelming is nothing in His hand.

The antidote to anxiety, fear, and worry is not willpower — it is opening the eyes of your heart to see what Elisha saw, what Joshua and Caleb saw, what David saw sprinting toward Goliath. The hand of God is mightier than any arm of flesh. And the response? See it. Celebrate it. Sing it — not mumbled words, but a full-hearted, joyful noise to the Lord.

Join us as we dig into Psalm 64 and rediscover what it means to trust God before the victory arrives.

Lord's Day Preview Oct 11:

"The Army of Flesh vs the Hand of God" Psalm 64

Sometimes, we only see the “arm of flesh:” fear, intimidation, anxiety, uncertainty, threats, attacks on our person, family, or faith.

King David saw the Hand of God and it led him to sing a song of praise.

Join us this Sunday as we learn from King David's words - how to open our spiritual eyes.

Fear asks "what if?" Faith declares "even in." That single contrast from Psalm 63 captures everything David wanted us to understand about walking through wilderness seasons.

David wrote Psalm 63 from a place of physical danger, spiritual thirst, and surrounding lies. Yet within a single verse, everything shifts. Not because his circumstances changed, but because he stopped asking "what if" and started declaring the chesed -- the loyal, fierce, unfailing love of God -- that saturated every dark moment of his life.

Whatever wilderness you are walking through right now -- health, finances, loneliness, broken relationships, an uncertain future -- God's covenant love is not waiting for your situation to improve before it shows up. It is already there. Jesus Christ is the fullest expression of that love, and He is the reason we can say "even in" instead of "what if."
