Who Jesus Is:

Jesus is the Word of God, who was with God and was God from the beginning, and through him all things were created. The Word became flesh and lived among us. I emphasize that Jesus is God Himself.

Jesus' Claims and the Reaction of Others:

My message references Jesus asking His disciples "Who do you say that I am?" and His claim to be "I am," which is the same name God used with Moses. This claim led to accusations of blasphemy.

The Meaning for Believers:

I stress that the fullness of God dwells in Jesus, and through him, believers are also filled. My message concludes by referencing Jesus as the "Alpha and the Omega," "King of Kings," and "Lord of Lords," and I affirm that believing in Jesus makes one a child of God.

This teaching explores the concluding portion of Psalm 119, starting from verse 169, focusing on the psalmist's sincere plea for understanding, deliverance, and steadfastness in God’s word amidst distress. As the longest chapter in the Bible, Psalm 119 is an acrostic poem praising God’s law and emphasizing reliance on Scripture for guidance and comfort.

The message highlights the significance of lament as a vital spiritual practice, separate from grumbling. It encourages turning to God’s word and prayer in despair, acknowledging our fallibility, and seeking God’s help rather than succumbing to bitterness. The speaker shares personal experiences of grief, urging listeners to express their pain to God as a pathway to healing.

The discussion includes the theme of idolatry, emphasizing the importance of prioritizing God and delighting in His commandments. The power of praise as a remedy for despair and the hope of salvation through Christ are underscored, along with the promise of forgiveness and the invitation to return to the Good Shepherd, reminding believers of God’s ever-accessible mercy and grace.
