Pastor E. V. Lightfoot

Sermon: "Don't Forget Who God IS"

   Sermon Text: Psalms 50:1-6

Call to Worship: Psalms 47:1-2

Responsive Reading: Psalms 50:1-6; 

2 Corinthians 4:3-6; Mark 9:2-4,7.

Introduction: Although God’s presence shines brightly in today’s mystical scriptures, the brightness of God’s presence and message shines most clearly in our hearts and minds. The visible brightness of God is perhaps too much to take in, and so God speaks more gently through our hearts, our memories, and through the shadowy moments of life. Only after the clouds overshadow the disciples are they able to hear God’s message.  Paul reminds us that light shines out of darkness,  and that our deepest knowledge comes from the light shining through our hearts. This is the transformative power of God’s presence—not just surrounding us but abiding with in us. 

• I. Introduction of the Divine Judge (50:1-6)
• II. The Light of the Divine Judge guides us out of darkness and redeems us unto His love.
• III. Don’t allow the noise of this world to drown out the voice of God.

Conclusion: Even in the darkest of times, the light of God is shining. The light of Christ’s love and mercy are shining now, brightening our lives with mercy and grace. Listen, for God speaks, calling out to the earth, speaking for all to hear. The light of God is shining. The word of God is speaking. In this time of silence, may we look within and listen deep for the presence of God in our midst.
