    A House For The Lord? Series

    Contributed by Chris Appleby on Aug 31, 2009
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,107 views

    This Christmas season will you be thinking about the wonder of the immortal God taking on mortal flesh; the omnipotent God appearing in the form of a helpless vulnerable baby; the only begotten Son of God coming as one of us to take on himself the punish

    We hear the Christmas story every year. The same events; the same characters; the same location. We sing Christmas carols that retell the story over and over again. But I wonder how many people as they watch Carols by Candlelight on Christmas Eve will see through the sentimentality of the ...read more

    Different Kind Of Legacy

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jul 19, 2009
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,051 views

    Our legacy is not in monuments, but in a spiritual and relational community, one which is ultimately redemptive. Washington Plaza Baptist Church, Reston, VA

    The older I become the more interested I am in those who have gone before me. Before I join my ancestors out there, I’d like to know more about them. It might make for some very interesting conversation up on Cloud Nine if I know about not only my parents and my grandparents, but also some of the ...read more

    Extreme Makeover: Temple Edition

    Contributed by Clair Sauer on Jul 20, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,299 views

    The “Extreme Makeover: Temple Edition,” as David learned is not about sprucing up the building, it’s about building up the kingdom, God’s kingdom; we must be about the task of justice-bearing, of love-spreading, and of kingdom-building!

    Just one week into my seminary career, I found myself in the refectory (that’s the dining hall) one night with a group of five or six other first-year students. Though I hardly knew them at the time, these people became and remain some of my best friends. Since I really didn’t know them all that ...read more

    Contributed by Spencer Homan on Nov 19, 2009
     | 9,365 views

    This is the fourth week of our "Prison Break" sermon series focused on the central character of King David. This sermon encourages to take God out of the box we keep him in.

    Prison Break 4 – It’s Time to Break God Out 1. God’s Prison Breaks found in the Bible Acts 12:5-11 5 So Peter was kept in prison, but the church was earnestly praying to God for him. 6 The night before Herod was to bring him to trial, Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two ...read more

    We are all followers of something or someone, but who/what is really worthy of following, that would never go out of style but goes on forever?

    Who do we follow? 2 Sam 7:12-16; Mt 21:1-5 (Zech 9:9) Big Idea: We follow a King who reigns forever I am a follower. I follow sports teams. It is such a guy thing.

    The Temple of the LORD and the dynasty of David.

    HIS PLANS, NOT OUR PLANS. 2 Samuel 7:1-16. (The title of this Sermon is based upon Isaiah 55:8-9.) There are three main thrusts in our reading in 2 Samuel today: 1. There is a subtle difference between a good idea and God’s will (2 Samuel 7:1-4); 2. God’s presence cannot be contained in a ...read more

    In this chapter Nathan presents two different oracles from God to David, tied together by different understandings of the word "house." David wants to build a house for God; God instead intends to build David's house.

    2 SAMUEL 7: 1-17 [The Life of David] WHEN GOD SAYS NO TO OUR DREAMS [Luke 22:14-20] In this chapter Nathan presents two different oracles from God to David, tied together by different understandings of the word "house."

    December 24, 2014 Eve of the Nativity Today we begin what I call the “thirteen days of Christmas.” This is the final day of the pre-Christmas novena, nine days in which the Church looks forward to the Christmas solemnity.

    The Security Of Christmas Series

    Contributed by Curry Pikkaart on Dec 22, 2014
     | 6,282 views

    The very season which ought to bring security and hope instead brings insecurity and hopelessness. That's why we need to hear God's message to Samuel.

    “The Difference Christmas Makes: The Security of Christmas” 2 Sam. 7:1-17 Christmas, for many people, is a time of great insecurity. There are adults whose frustrations increase and self-image drops because they cannot provide gifts for their children. Some children feel unloved or ...read more

    Ark, Anger, And Acceptance

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Feb 20, 2010
     | 5,002 views

    We who are successful want instant gratification, but must know that God’s timing may be different, and that it is important to do something that enables others to succeed. In prayer we learn that we are accepted and so our efforts have meaning.

    Success brings with it its own set of problems. If you get used to being successful, you soon expect it, and then if it eludes you, that can be very hard to take. I know that I am speaking this morning to reasonably successful people, by and large. Most of you, when you face a challenge, are able ...read more

    Our reaction to the receiving of God’s promise of life with God tells more about us than Jesus

    So maybe you’ve heard it said, ‘read your bible’ so you tried and failed. Our hope as leaders is that all of us will pick up God’s word and come to understand the true nature of God. After all, the bible is God’s Word curated over centuries detailing His nature, His will, the meaning of life and ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 20,130 views

    God often says "no" to his children. He said no to Paul; no to Moses regarding Miriam's leprosy and his entering the Promised land; no to Jesus in Gethsamane. He now says no to David. That is part of His Godly attributes as a Father.

    David wants to build God a house, and God in turn reveals that He wants to build David a house, one that is eternal. God has in mind the salvation of the world. He wants to dwell in the hearts of every believer.

    Last week we saw how David moved the Ark of the Lord back to Jerusalem. • He was careless at the first round, but did it right the second time. He heeded God’s Word and followed God’s way. • We honour God’s presence with reverence and a holy fear. We COME CLEAN with ...read more
