The God Who Strengthens06.27.10 | Pastor Tim Shorey
Isaiah 40:29-31
In this series finale we apply the reality of Who God is to the everydayness of our lives and the desperate need we all have for strengthening grace. This message reveals how the God Whom we have beheld is the God who is our strength and portion for all of life.
The God Who Never Sleeps06.20.10 | Tim W. Shorey
Isaiah 40:27-28
God does not grow tired of being God or of doing good for his people.
The Creator and Sustainer of All: A Look at the Providence of God06.13.10 | Pastor Tim Shorey
Isaiah 40:25-26 | Notes
God has made and He sustains all things--including the most remote star in the farthest galaxy. That God is for us. This message calls us to faith in the God whose providence is our everyday hope.
The God Who Humbles the Proud and Rules Rulers06.06.10 | Pastor Scott Stengele
Isaiah 40:21-24 | Notes
God is the ruler of the rulers. The biblical doctrine of God's sovereignty, especially his sovereignty over this world's rulers, is one of the greatest sources of comfort for the Christian in this life. "God is in control" is a message that calms our fears, allays our anxieties, and encourages our hearts if only we would remember it more consistently.
Savior of the Nations05.30.10 | Pastor Tim Shorey
Isaiah 40:15-17 | Notes
The God who rules the nations and does not need the nations still loves the nations and has a plan to save them for his glory through the church.
The One True God05.23.10 | Fred Klett
Isaiah 40:18-20
We are called to love and worship the one true God. No idol can compare to God, so all idols--whether of stone or internal imagination--must be renounced in favor of a soul-satisfying delight in the One who alone is God.
God Over the Nations05.16.10 | Pastor Tim Shorey
Isaiah 40:15-17 | Notes
The God revealed in Isaiah rules over the nations and has absolutely no need for them. However in grace He has a heart for them. In this message we see how the nations both do not matter and matter greatly to God--at the same time.
Why You Just Cannot Teach God Anything05.09.10 | Pastor Tim Shorey
Isaiah 40:12-14 | Notes
A. W. Tozer has written: "What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us." One attribute of God that needs to come into our minds when we think about him is his omniscience, the fact that God knows everything about everything and everybody all the time--he always has and he always will. This makes life an awesome business.
The Sovereign, Mighty Shepherd05.02.10 | Brian Solik
Isaiah 40:10-11 | Notes
Isaiah now begins to describe the God we are to behold--the God who desires to give His people comfort. He is the sovereign, mighty owner and ruler of all. He considers His people His reward, and He gently shepherds each one of them personally.
The Transforming Effects of Beholding God04.25.10 | Pastor Tim Shorey
Isaiah 40:1, 2, 9 | Notes
Emotional and moral transformation of the heart happen when we behold the glory of God. We effectively become what we affectionately behold.
God's Abiding Word04.18.10 | Pastor Tim Bowditch
Isaiah 40:6-8 | Notes
The prophet Isaiah shows us the stark contrast between the transience of man and the abiding power of God's word: All flesh is grass, but the word of the Lord abides forever. The word of God has an enduring existence because it is spoken by our eternal God, and it has enduring power because he is committed to accomplishing his purposes through it whenever it goes forth.
Prepare the Way of the Lord04.11.10 | Pastor Steve Cassarino
Isaiah 40:3-5 | Notes
God's people must prepare themselves to meet the Lord. God prepares us to hear His voice in the wilderness. However, we must enter the wilderness with a heart of repentance and faith.
The Glory of our Redeemer and our Everlasting Happiness04.04.10 | Pastor Tim Shorey
Isaiah 58-59
In this message we consider how the glory of our risen redeemer will lead to the never-ending joy of His people. Once again we see how God's glory and our happiness are inseparably joined.
The God-Centeredness of God03.28.10 | Pastor Tim Shorey
Isaiah 40 | Notes
In Isaiah 40 we learn that foundational to a true understanding of God is that we grasp the radical passion of God for His own glory in all He does. Contrary to what some might feel, this does not preclude His commitment to our joy; it defines it. The true Christian is never happier than when God is glorified, so God's commitment to His glory is inseparably linked to His loving commitment to our joy.
Behold Your God03.21.10 | Pastor Tim Shorey
Isaiah 40:1-9
According to Isaiah 40 there are two great secrets to a comforted and happy life in the midst of all its trials: rest in the gospel of God's forgiveness and behold the glory of God's face. These are the only real answers to the question: "How can I be deeply happy no matter what?" This message introduces a twelve part series aimed at proclaiming this truth.
