Preaching at Trinity

Exposition of Jonah 3

The name Lord appears often in the BIble and is repeatedly used when someone is addressing God. This is an important name because of the context of the relationship with God. Be encouraged as we study the care and help we receive from our Lord.

People are often tempted to prioritize various aspects of their lives above God. They may give lip service to God and say He has first place, but in action, it isn’t true. The name El Elyon places God where He deserves to be, the Most High God. Join this study of the name El Elyon and examine your own heart's response to the name.

The importance of being near God is a constant focus throughout the BIble. Usually, people understand that to mean a physical presence, such as Israel and the Glory of God. However, God is Omnipresent in the New Testament era God is present in His people. This truth should reign in our lives, just as God should reign.

Exposition of Jonah Chapter 2

The truth that God is everlasting is hard for us to grasp with our finite minds. The name El Olam expands our understanding of this truth in its application within the confines of our understanding of time. The application of this name is a wonderful truth to embrace, especially in times when we have muddled up our lives.

Pastor Jacob Perry begins a 4 week series on the Book of Jonah.

This name of God establishes us for the importance of God’s righteousness. If fact, it lays out that our righteousness is solely dependent upon the goodness and imputation of God’s righteousness. It should cause us to consider our own efforts and strivings in relation to the Jehovah.

Even a great man needs a better Man.

The LORD of Hosts is not just another name that exalts God, it is a name that represents His complete authority. It was repeatedly stated to a disobedient nation and is the name that we today should recognize when we cry out for help.

Who we are following is who we will become. This is not hard to understand, but what is difficult is to truly discern who we are following. Who are the people or organizations that are truly agents of change in our life

This study of God’s name comes striaght from a pivitol time in Israel’s escape from Egypt. They learned in battle that the Lord can be trusted and we must seek His help. As we study, we too will be confronted with the truth that we need God’s help and should call out to Him.

This familiar call for Christians to love one another is bound in the Mosaic Law. It is even summarized elsewhere by Christ as the second greatest command. Yet, Jesus takes it even further here, not just to love your neighbor, but to love even your enemies.

Jehovah-Jireh is a compound name for God. This incredible name reveals much more than we first realize. He Sees Us, but it isn't just that He observes and knows what is going on, but we will understand that its deeper meaning extends to what He accomplishes for us.

In this familiar passage we are tempted to read with little attention to the words. However, this section is vastly different from other sermons in that it carries a series of warnings. Each blessing and warning should leave us pondering and assessing our own discipleship.
