Psalm 110: A Psalm for the Insecure
As ministers of the gospel, we can recenter our students’ confidence by pointing them to the Savior who will not disappoint.
As ministers of the gospel, we can recenter our students’ confidence by pointing them to the Savior who will not disappoint.
Jesus, like Boaz and Ruth, did not concern himself with power dynamics but with loving his Father and serving his people.
Everything we were reading was part of a bigger story pointing to our loving God coming to save his people through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
By God’s sovereign grace, we are both called and necessary for the fullness of his plans to come to fruition.
We can show our students that we can be known for uncompromising conviction, yet never known for cruelty or hatred.
We can put our faith in our own exhaustible novelty, or in the inexhaustible and pinpoint accuracy of the Holy Spirit working through his own words.
Just as God sent Moses to deliver the people of Israel, he also sent Jesus to deliver the people of the world—only Jesus was a better Moses.
No matter what we are presently facing, God wants us to know that he sees us, he loves us, and he’s got the whole world in his hands.
The reason for the spiritual’s refrain is none other than Christ himself. Our healing, hope, and “balm” lies within him.
