This week David preached from Zephaniah 3:14-20. The focus of this text is on the hope and promise of the coming Messiah in the context of the inevitable judgment that will be brought by our righteous God (listen online).  

We easily forget the story of God’s redemption, as it has been revealed through Christ’s coming, when we get caught up in the story of how we fit into that. The monumentally amazing truth of the Bible is that the God of the universe sent His Son to be with us, to save us (Zeph 3:15), to walk among us, to be in reach of human hands and yet be crucified by those same hands… And in that same redemptive story what’s not over is God remaining with us through His powerful Spirit, until He restores everything and calls His children home. We so often forget or take lightly the CRESCENDO of God’s story, the coming of His son, when we neglect or don’t remember the groaning felt by those who were originally longing for it.  

May we embrace and remember the significance of our sent Savior, and wait in eager expectation for His victorious return!
