Serve and Rejoice (Psalm 2:11)

Title: Serve and Rejoice

Passage: Psalm 2:11

Speaker: Pastor Ryan Martin

Service: Sunday Morning Worship Service

Date: September 15, 2019

In an age of worship confusion, this is a text we need to hear. But even more than the current worship problems that inflict evangelicalism, worship is why we were created. Psalm 2:11 is a call to give to God what is due him. A.W. Tozer defined worship this way: “To worship is to feel in the heart and express in some appropriate manner…a humbling but delightful sense of admiring awe and astonished wonder and overwhelming love in the presence of that most ancient mystery, that unspeakable majesty, which philosophers have called the mysterium tremendum, but which the prophets call the Lord our God.” Worship is the most important activity in the universe.

Israel’s Building Project (Exodus 35:4-39:43)

Title: Israel’s Building Project

Passage: Exodus 35:4-39:43

Speaker: Pastor Ryan Martin

Service: Sunday Morning Worship Service

The focus throughout these chapters is on the people as they get to work on the sanctuary. We will pay special attention to how the Scriptures present Israel in these chapters. As you consider look at Israel’s example, you should ask yourself a question. If Israel is acting thus about the Tabernacle which pointed to Christ, how much more should these things be true of me, a follower of Christ himself? How should God’s people respond to his grace?

Covenant Worship (Worship Service, August 5th, 2018)

Title: Covenant Worship

Passage: Exodus 23:13-19

Speaker: Pastor Ryan Martin

Service: Sunday Morning Worship Service

Date: August 5th, 2018

Worship is vital in Yahweh’s covenant with Israel. There is nothing more important than God. There is no being higher than God. There is no one more deserving of worship than the one true God. For these reasons, God surrounds all of Israel’s life in covenant community with the priority of worship. In Ex 23, we see how central worship is in God’s covenant with Israel. Israel is not a secular nation. She is a sacred nation, a kingdom of priests, and God demands not only her obedience, but her worship. This text from the old covenant teaches us how essential worship is for man.

Israel’s Sabbath (Worship Service, March 18th, 2018)

Title: Israel’s Sabbath

Passage: Exodus 20:8-11

Speaker: Pastor Ryan Martin

Service: Sunday Morning Worship Service

Date: March 18th, 2018

Today, we consider the 4th commandment. In the NT era, this is one of the most controversial commands. Someone’s approach to the 4th commandment often indicates how he understands the relationship of the OT law to the church. 

A Holy Sabbath to the LORD (Worship Service, December 10th, 2017)

Title: A Holy Sabbath to the LORD

Passage: Exodus 16:21-36

Speaker: Pastor Ryan Martin

Service: Sunday Morning Worship Service

Date: December 10th, 2017

The rest of Exodus 16 deals with the institution of a pre-Sinai Sabbath and the people’s response to this. I believe that the same theme of first half of the chapter can be easily brought over and extended into the focus on the manna and Sabbath. That is, we still learn here that true saints believe that God alone can satisfy their greatest desires
