Matthew 6 - Worry – Jesus challenges us to realize what is important in life. He will take care of our food and clothing. We have tremendous value to God, and He will take care of His people. Control is an illusion; we only think we are in control. God is the one in control. Don't waste your energy worrying about things that don't matter or things you cannot control. You trust God for your eternal destiny; trust Him with the things you face this week.
John 21 -Do You Love Me?
Luke 7 – Do you see people as Jesus sees people? Every person you see this week is someone Jesus loves and died for. Jesus expects us to show them the same love that He showed us. This week, may we each look past what our eyes see and try to see the soul of the people we encounter. It is my prayer that we would really see the people around us and show them the compassion and love of Jesus.
Mark 4 = Focus – Examine your life and make sure that you have your faith and trust in Jesus as your Savior. Make sure Jesus is in the boat of your life. When the storms come, turn to Jesus and rest in the fact that Jesus is in the storm with you. Why are you afraid when you have Jesus in your life?
John 5:1-17 = Desire – Jesus meets the sick man at Bethsaida and wants to know what his real desire is. It is a challenge for us to look at our heart as well. Do we really want to change our circumstances and situation? If we really desire to follow God, then we have to be obedient.
Matthew 16:24-27 = Purpose – Jesus challenges the disciples to consider their purpose on this earth. Discipleship means that life cannot be about what you value. Our lives must focus on eternal things and not the temporal things of this world.
Matthew 16:13-23 = Question about Relationship - Who is Jesus? Jesus poses a heart-piercing question to the disciples. Who do they think he is? Jesus wants to know what they believe about Him. Jesus has the same question for each of us today. Who is Jesus in your life? The answer to that question will shape your life for all eternity.
Luke Chapter 19 - The story of Zacchaeus emphasizes that Jesus seeks out the lost, encouraging individuals to reflect on their lives and their relationship with Him.
Isaiah 9:6 – Christmas is the celebration of a Child who is both God and man that was given to us. This child will guide us, protect us, father us, and provide us with peace. God came so that we could have a life of Shalom in everything that happens in our lives. This Christmas, go in peace and enjoy the life of Shalom that God provides.
Isaiah 9:6 = Jesus is our El Gibbor – The Mighty God who fights for us. He protects and provides a way for us to have a relationship with God. This Child is also a Father who will teach us the best way to live life on this earth.
Christmas Series 01 - 2025 1207 - Jimmy Cockburn Wonderful Counselor
Joshua 24 – Joshua challenges Israel to make a choice. Joshua made the choice for his family and determined that they would follow God regardless of what anyone else chose.
Deuteronomy 8 – Moses challenges the people not to forget God. They needed to realize that all that they possessed was from the hand of a generous God. Genuine gratitude comes from a heart that recognizes all they have is because of a gracious God.
Joshua 23 – Joshua starts his final speech to Israel by reminding them that God has been faithful and has fulfilled His promises. Joshua also warns Israel that if they embrace other gods, God will take back His land and they will no longer enjoy His blessings. We must continue to love God with our whole heart.
Joshua 22 - 2025 1109 - Jimmy Cockburn
Joshua 21 – We are fortunate to have the spiritual inheritance we have as Christians. It is our job to serve God in the places that He has put each of us. Serve God in such a way that people see your God in you.
Joshua 20 – The cities of refuge help us better understand God and the church. We learn that God is merciful and cares for human life. We also see a picture of how the church should act and be a place of safety, hope, comfort, and grace. It is a reminder of how we need to act this week as followers of Jesus.
Joshua 19 - 2025 1019 - Jimmy Cockburn
Joshua 17 requires that we honestly look at our attitudes toward life. We have to ask ourselves some hard questions – How much is enough? Do we really want what we deserve? Do we seek the easy path? We do not want to be like the people of Manasseh. God has destined us for so much more.
Joshua 16 and the story of Ephraim & Manasseh remind us that our legacy is important. Our lives need to be focused on our God and our relationship with Him. Take time this week to evaluate what you are leaving behind when you leave this world for the world to come.
