Sermons About Deliverance
Waiting (Psalm 40)
Life is filled with all sorts of landscape. An all terrain faith is equally balanced for the breathtaking view from the mountaintop and the confusing trek though a cold, dark valley. It provides adequate support for walking in rough, rocky stretches and stability for the slippery spots. In this exploration of the Psalms, we will see that no matter where you find yourself in life there is an appropriate faith response to your life situation. Are you ready for the hike?

Our Response to Life
Everyone has things in their lives that keep them from being all they could be. Sometimes we need more than our own skill and experience to overcome those things. We need power. The kind of power that comes from God. Jesus said this kind of power only comes through prayer. Not the reactive, popcorn prayers that we're all good at, but the proactive prayers of people who are in a vibrant relationship with God.

The Word of Anguish
The Word of Anguish Matthew 27:45; Mark 15:33-34 As we observe this cry from the cross we see: 1. A season of darkness. This darkness came as a result of: * Physical pain * Physiological ploys * A paternal purpose 2. A sudden desertion. The desertion of Christ teaches us about: * The purity of God · The penalty for our sin · The perseverance of Jesus 3. A spiritual deliverance. This deliverance involves: · The person of Christ. * The payment for sin · A promise to all people. Both: -Sinner -Saint

Are You Seeing Results?
Part 5 "Are you seeing results?" Romans 1:5-7 A true and growing Christianity is seen in its results. Every growing Christian must: 1. Remember the purpose of our deliverance. The purpose for our deliverance involves: * God receiving glory * Humanity receiving grace * God giving gifts 2. Respond with a passion to declare the gospel. This declaration must be: * Shared with all people * Shared properly 3. Recognize the privileges that bring forth our delight. Our delight comes because: * We belong to God * We are beloved by God * We become saints * We are showered with His blessings

Deborah and Barak: Awakened for Action!
Judges 4 and 5 During a desperate time in Israel, God awakened Deborah and Barak to see that the only way the nation could escape the stifling tyranny of the Canaanite King Jabin was to meet his superior forces in battle. On the surface, it appeared to be a substantial mismatch... but only if the power of God was left out of consideration. Instead, God not only motivated Deborah and Barak to attempt the impossible, He raised up the people to fight, and opened up the heavens to pour out the rain, and the battle was won. Every time we read about a Judge/Deliverer we remember that our deliverance was accomplished only as God sent His Son/Deliverer to appease God's wrath, overcoming the forces of sin that held us fast.

Deliverance from Our Second Guessing
Part 3 "Deliverance from Our Second-guessing" John 20:19-31 Deliverance from second-guessing the claims of Jesus demands that we: 1. DEVELOP A RELATIONSHIP WITH A DISCIPLE WHO DOUBTED. THOMAS WAS: * A FISHERMAN (John 21:1-3) * A FOLLOWER OF CHRIST (Luke 6:13-16) * FOCUSED ON FINDING ANSWERS (John 14:5) 2. DEFEND AGAINST THE RISKS SURROUNDING THE DOWNWARD OF SPIRAL DOUBT.

DOUBT IS DISARMED BY: * DRAWING CLOSE TO JESUS (v.26) * BELIEVING THE DEMONSTRATIONS GIVEN TO US. (v. 27) * DECLARING OUR ALLEGIANCE TO GOD. (vv. 28-29) * DEVOTING OURSELVES TO THE WORD OF GOD.

What Is In Your Hand?
God has called us to freedom and to participate with Him in freeing others. We are not qualified in and of ourselves to do what God is asking of us, but He will work great miracles when we lay down whatever we have in our hands.

A Disciple's Joy
When it comes to your relationship with Christ, what makes you rejoice? Jesus told his disciples that, as great as it was for them to be exhibiting the power of the Kingdom, the real reason for rejoicing was the deliverance God brings to the heart of faith, a deliverance from death into life.

The Christian and the Law (Exodus 24)
The Old Testament Law is relevant to us today. Broadly, as a whole it gives us an appreciation for God's history of redemption, and specifically, the moral law applies to us today as Christians. Most importantly, we are to understand the Old Testament Law in a framework of grace. God first loved and saved Israel, and then through the law taught them to live holy lives for his glory. Obedience of the law cannot earn God's favor; it must be motivated by love for God and gratitude for our finished salvation.

God Works in a Mysterious Way
In difficult times I can often seem like God has abandoned or forgotten us. Paul addresses this in his letter to the Philippians as they endured hardship. First, the pattern for their lives is found in Jesus. His life was marked by humility, obedience and suffering followed by exaltation. We work out the deliverance from our harships because God is at work in us, energizing us to will & act according to His purpose of glorifying Jesus.

Faith in the Wilderness (Exodus 15:22 - 18:27)
After seeing God's great power and glory, Israel falls into escalating grumbling as God brings them through the wilderness. Moses, however, retains his faith in "the LORD my banner". Without denying the very real and agonizing hardships we experience in life, we must resist the temptation to unbelief and grumbling and must remind ourselves of God's goodness and faithfulness. He will surely continue to sustain us through trials.

With a Mighty Hand and Outstretched Arm (Exodus 13:17 - 15:21)
God set his love on an undeserving people and delivered them out of slavery by his mighty power, for his glory, and for their good. This points ahead to our own experience of salvation in Jesus. We ought to consider our own deliverance out of sin with great gratitude and rejoicing.

Christ the Passover (Exodus 11 - 13:16)
God delivered Israel out of Egypt by killing the Egyptians' firstborn but passing over Israel because of their making the passover sacrifice in faith. God charged Israel to remember their redemption to all generations; to forget God's redemption and deliverance was a matter of life and death. Likewise for us today, we are charged to remember our deliverance and redemption from sin in Jesus as a matter of life and death.

To Be the People of God (Exodus 3)
What does it mean to be the people of God? From Exodus 3 we see that: the Holy One will dwell with his people; the God of Abraham will deliver his people; I AM WHO I AM will be with his people; and the Mighty One will vindicate his people. We will see different facets of who God is and what it means that the holy God dwells with us, delivers us, and vindicates us.

That You May Know: The Story of Exodus
For his own sake and glory, God manifested his glory and greatness by acting with signs and wonders to deliver the nation of Israel. God's purpose in delivering Israel, and the purpose of the writing of the book of Exodus, is "that you may know" that he is the Lord of all things. God acts for his own glory, saves a people for his own glory, and calls us to live for his glory.
