Main Thought:
God is the active party even in our reception of His Word. Notice how in this Psalm it is God’s activity which brings His servant into faithfulness.

(more…)The first half of this psalm calls God to speak against the enemies of His people. Among those who plan the destruction of Israel are “relatives” like the Edomites, Ishmaelites, and children of Lot.
(more…)The Lord has made a stunningly beautiful world for us. All aspects of creation are balanced and God cares for all His creatures.
(more…)Our God is Lord over the whole earth. The nations which vie for power over small bits of land should consider that the counsels of the Lord stand forever.
(more…)Even in death, or perhaps especially in death, we are made aware of God’s great benefits to us. The death of his saints is precious to the Lord because life is theirs through His Son, our Savior, Jesus Christ. Let us lift up the cup of salvation and call on His name on this All Saints’ Day!
(more…)This Sunday, November 2, there will be no 9:00 AM service.
There will be coffee hour at 10:00 AM, followed by one service at 11:00 AM.
Pastor Noack will be presiding.
We do well to pray that God would keep our lips and hearts clean. For we live amongst wickedness and traps are all around us.
(more…)We seek deliverance from the evil without but especially the evil within. We wait for our Redeemer who justifies us according to His mercy.
(more…)We are zealous for God’s Word because His promises are tried and true. He is the one who gives us understanding that we may live. The apostles St. Simon the Zealot and St. Jude are not well-known, but they carried the Word of God to the nations.
(more…)While we pray for good government, the King of righteousness is truly the Son of God who came to save us from sin.
