Dwell in Safety, Psalm 4

Psalm 4 teaches us how to respond when lies, slander, and reproach threaten to define us. David turns to the Lord and remembers that the world may tell lies and believe lies, but God knows the truth perfectly.

This sermon calls believers to find their worth in the Lord, declare what is true, and trust God’s deliverance. Because the Lord hears His people and makes them dwell in safety, they can lie down and sleep in peace.

Saved by His Resurrection, 1 Peter 3:18–22

When the world appears strong and the church appears weak, it can be difficult to see how God is working. Yet Scripture reminds us that what looks like defeat is often the very place of God’s victory.

Because the ransom has been paid, believers can live with confidence—not in themselves, but in the finished work of Christ, the eternal will of God, and the hope secured through the resurrection.

This sermon calls believers to recognize the danger and shame of sin while resting in the grace that sustains and preserves God’s people.
