05: Thy Great Name

This sermon, drawn from Psalm 138:1–4, centers on the exaltation of God's name and word as the foundation of worship, prayer, and hope. It emphasizes that God's steadfast love, faithfulness, and answered prayers are not only personal blessings but also demonstrations of His sovereign character, which magnifies His name above all things. Through reflections on David's gratitude, the sermon highlights how God's faithfulness in deliverance—despite personal pain and betrayal—affirms His covenant promises and fuels confident prayer. It underscores that God's glory is at stake in every answer to prayer, and that His promises, fulfilled in Christ, are the ultimate assurance of His reliability. The sermon concludes by affirming that all of God's promises find their 'Yes' in Jesus, making His name the ultimate object of worship and the basis of our confident faith.
