Psalm 119:49-56 Steadfast 7/5/26 Sermon
Remembering leads to comfort. God’s word gives hope to his people because when we remember it, we remember the very words and promises of our trustworthy God. This gives us comfort and helps us to remain steadfast when we go through the hardships of life because it causes us to keep our eyes (and our minds) fixed on what is true: the ways and laws of the Lord.

Psalm 119:41-48 From Promise to Praise 6/28/26 Sermon
What God promises. The psalmist highlights three ways in which God’s word gives us strength and encouragement: promises, trust, and hope. When we call on our Lord in faith, when we take His words seriously, treasuring all that He has said for us, then we grow in the faith and are able to navigate life with Christian maturity.

Psalm 119:17-24 Eyes to See 6/7/26 Sermon
Blessing instead of despair. God’s blessing matters not just for the future, but even in the present. The way to delight is found not in focusing on those who oppose the Lord, not in how they seek to harm the ones who follow God’s words, but instead: we focus on what our Lord has said.

Psalm 119:9-16 Fix Your Eyes 5/31/26 Sermon
A delightful way. The call of Psalm 119 isn’t only a call to read the scriptures. It’s more! It’s a call to delight in God’s word given to God’s people. What does that delight look like and how can we have it? The psalmist answers: teach me, declare, and delight.

Psalm 119:1-8 Delight in the Lord 5/24/26 Sermon
The blessing you can have. Far from being unattainable, you and I can have this blessing because Jesus has won it for us – He perfectly keeps all God’s words, He has fulfilled the law. Because of Jesus, because every Christian has the Holy Spirit, we too can follow the pattern of treasuring God’s words in how we live and respond.
