Building Permit Denied!

from Wilderness Wanderings · host Michael Bootsma

A Sunday Sermon edition of Wilderness Wanderings! The text is 2 Samuel 7:1-18. Dive Deeper discussion questions are below for further reflection! To see this sermon in the context of the worship service it comes from, find it here on YouTube. Or, head to our website to connect with the worshiping community of Immanuel CRC: immanuelministries.ca Dive Deeper David begins this chapter at rest. How would you define rest? How does God give a different shape to rest? David wants to honour God by building a temple for him. What does honouring God look like in your life? What specific things have you done to honour God? Why does God reply to David's desire with a litany of all God has done? What are the seeds that God plants in this chapter? In what ways have you seen the flowers from those seeds blossoming in your own life? In the life of the church? When and how do you "sit before" God?

MRE Podcast MRE Podcast This is a daily devotional podcast for those who want more of God's Word each day. I read the Word and share my insights from the Word. You might ask why do I do this? In the wilderness, the Israelites had to depend on daily mana from heaven to live. They couldn't eat yesterday's nor keep them for the next day. They always lived on the fresh mana each day. We also need to live by the fresh word of God each day. However, often we skip a meal and live on the past encounters with God. Someone of us gets too busy to eat or someone us do not know how or where to start. We need fresh encounters each day with the Lord so that the love of Christ will overflow to others. That's what I am doing, doing my quiet time and feasting and sharing the food with people. Join the Lord's table with me!
