Evergreen: An Advent Podcast - Day 11 | Jehovah Magen – The Lord my Shield Dec 11, 2024

Show notes

Today's Passage: Psalm 33: 20-22

Our soul waits for the LORD;

he is our help and our shield.

For our heart is glad in him,

because we trust in his holy name.

Let your steadfast love, O LORD, be upon us,

even as we hope in you.

Today's Prayer: Lord you are our shield and our ever-present help.

Your steadfastness deepens our hope and draws us near to your side.

The brokenness of this world often leaves us feeling discouraged.

The circumstances of this life so easily weigh us down.

But, your word reminds us to take refuge in you.

It reminds us to trust you.

It reminds us walk in integrity.

It reminds us that your ways are perfect.

Your very words remind us that we will face trouble.

Yet we have an eternal hope.

We have the beautiful eternal hope of trusting in the One who has overcome the world.

As we wait eagerly for your return,

Let us not lose sight of our great help and our shield.

We love you Lord.

Evergreen: An Advent Podcast - Day 10 | Jehovah-Jireh, The Lord Will Provide Dec 10, 2024

Show notes

Today's Passage: Genesis 22:9-14

When they came to the place of which God had told him, Abraham built the altar there and laid the wood in order and bound Isaac his son and laid him on the altar, on top of the wood. Then Abraham reached out his hand and took the knife to slaughter his son. But the angel of the Lord called to him from heaven and said, “Abraham, Abraham!” And he said, “Here I am.” He said, “Do not lay your hand on the boy or do anything to him, for now I know that you fear God, seeing you have not withheld your son, your only son, from me.” And Abraham lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, behind him was a ram, caught in a thicket by his horns. And Abraham went and took the ram and offered it up as a burnt offering instead of his son. So Abraham called the name of that place, “The Lord will provide”; as it is said to this day, “On the mount of the Lord it shall be provided.”

Today's Prayer: Father God, Jehovah Jireh – we recognize the ways seen and unseen that you have provided for us and our brothers and sisters in Christ throughout all of time. You are always on time. And even though it doesn’t feel like that sometimes, we believe it ultimately to be true.

Remind us again, in this advent season of waiting and longing for you, that your heart is one of outpouring and generosity. Abounding in love and blessings to those of us that call on you.

Jesus, we praise you, for being the provision we needed. At just the right time, while we were powerless in our sin, you became our sacrifice and made a way for us to come home to God. How can we ever stop thanking you? We celebrate your coming and your victory this Advent season. And we eagerly await to be reunited with you.

Holy Spirit, through your power, would you remind us when we forget that Jehovah Jireh is our God. Call to mind the ways and times he has proven himself true to his character. And help our hearts to grow in wisdom and trust as we wait and hope for Christ’s return.

Amen.

Today's Passage: Exodus 3:11 -15

But Moses said to God, “Who am I that I should go to Pharaoh and bring the children of Israel out of Egypt?” He said, “But I will be with you, and this shall be the sign for you, that I have sent you: when you have brought the people out of Egypt, you shall serve God on this mountain.”

Then Moses said to God, “If I come to the people of Israel and say to them, ‘The God of your fathers has sent me to you,’ and they ask me, ‘What is his name?’ what shall I say to them?” God said to Moses, “I am who I am.” And he said, “Say this to the people of Israel: ‘I AM has sent me to you.’

God also said to Moses, “Say this to the people of Israel: ‘The LORD, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you.’ This is my name forever, and thus I am to be remembered throughout all generations.”

Today's Prayer: Lord, we love you, and we praise your beautiful name.

You are the great I AM.

The one who is in all and holds all things together.

The one who is the same yesterday, today, and forever.

Our need for you is great.

Remind us today that you alone are our sustainer.

Remind us today that we can rest in the fullness of who you are.

Let us see your power in all of our brokenness.

Let us see the constancy of your presence throughout every season of our lives.

Let us see where you are revealing your eternal nature to a broken world.

And let us not miss where you are inviting us into this beautiful work.

As we walk through each hour of this day,

Make your presence known,

And let us rest in all of who you are.

Evergreen: An Advent Podcast - Day 8 | El Roi – The God Who Sees Me Dec 08, 2024

Today's Passage: Genesis 16: 11-13

And the angel of the Lord said to her,

“Behold, you are pregnant

and shall bear a son.

You shall call his name Ishmael,

because the Lord has listened to your affliction.

He shall be a wild donkey of a man,

his hand against everyone

and everyone's hand against him,

and he shall dwell over against all his kinsmen.”

So she called the name of the Lord who spoke to her, “You are a God of seeing,” for she said, “Truly here I have seen him who looks after me.”

Today's Prayer: Father we love you.

We long to for the day we will see you face-to-face,

But, in the waiting, we rest in knowing that you are the God who sees us in this very moment.

We rest in knowing that you see us in our laughing and in our weeping.

We rest in knowing that you see every longing and every place of brokenness.

We rest in knowing that you see every high and every low.

Throughout this day, attune our hearts and minds to you.

Let our eyes not drift from your glory.

Let us not forget your deep, unwavering love for your children.

When we are tempted to numb the pain through our own strength, Keep our eyes on you.

When we struggle to see the good in your plan for today, Keep our eyes on the promised joy that is to come.

You are the God who sees all that was, all that is, and all that will be.

We trust your good and perfect ways.

Evergreen: An Advent Podcast - Day 7 | Elohim – All Powerful One, Creator Dec 07, 2024

Show notes

Today's Passage: Genesis 1:1-2

In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was without form and void, and darkness was over the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.

Today's Prayer: Elohim…God…

The fact that you have existed from the beginning of all time is incredibly reassuring to my heart. So often, I get caught up with the details of my own life and forget that it is meant to be part of the grand story You have been writing from the beginning of all time.

I confess that you are all-powerful and are the creator of all that surrounds us. While you rule and reign over all of creation help me to trust that Your sovereignty extends to my life. The details of my life are not hidden from You. Your Word remind me the very hairs of my head are all numbered and that I am far more valuable than many sparrows.

In the same way that your Spirit hovered over the face of the waters, would you hover over me on this day? I desire for my life to be motivated and animated by Your Spirit. I ask the Spirit would shape my heart and affections for You today. I give You access to my life, Elohim. Have Your way.

In Christ’s name…Amen.

Evergreen: An Advent Podcast - Day 6 | El Shaddai – The All Sufficient One Dec 06, 2024

Today's Passage: Genesis 17:1-8.

When Abram was ninety-nine years old the Lord appeared to Abram and said to him, “I am God Almighty;[a] walk before me, and be blameless, 2 that I may make my covenant between me and you, and may multiply you greatly.” 3 Then Abram fell on his face. And God said to him, 4 “Behold, my covenant is with you, and you shall be the father of a multitude of nations. 5 No longer shall your name be called Abram,[b] but your name shall be Abraham,[c] for I have made you the father of a multitude of nations. 6 I will make you exceedingly fruitful, and I will make you into nations, and kings shall come from you. 7 And I will establish my covenant between me and you and your offspring after you throughout their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be God to you and to your offspring after you. 8 And I will give to you and to your offspring after you the land of your sojournings, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession, and I will be their God.”

Today's Prayer: Oh Lord we love you.

We confess that you are El Shaddai, God Almighty, The All sufficient One.

We pray that you remind us of your sufficiency, over and over again. Let us not get distracted by the things of this world but instead keep our eyes fixed on you.

Give us hope knowing that the same sufficiency you promised Abraham is what you offer to us. You are continually with us. You guide us with your counsel. You are the strength of our heart and our portion forever.

Amen

Evergreen: An Advent Podcast - Day 5 | El Nehkumah – The God of All Comfort Dec 05, 2024

Show notes

Today's Passage: 2 Corinthians 1:3-7

3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, 4 who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God. 5 For as we share abundantly in Christ's sufferings, so through Christ we share abundantly in comfort too. 6 If we are afflicted, it is for your comfort and salvation; and if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which you experience when you patiently endure the same sufferings that we suffer. 7 Our hope for you is unshaken, for we know that as you share in our sufferings, you will also share in our comfort.

Today's Prayer: God of all Comfort, we are encouraged today by the words of the prophet Isaiah:

Surely he has borne our griefs

and carried our sorrows;

yet we esteemed him stricken,

smitten by God, and afflicted.

In a season that seems to leave no room for sadness, we take great comfort from knowing You took our pain and bore our suffering.

We ask that Your Spirit would help us to know You more deeply on this day as the God of all Comfort.

Amen.

Today's Passage: Psalm 68:19-20

Blessed be the Lord,
who daily bears us up;
God is our salvation. Selah

Our God is a God of salvation,
and to God, the Lord, belong deliverances from death.

Today's Prayer: Father, we love you.

We are in awe of the salvation you so freely give to those who believe.

We bless your name.

We rejoice in the promise that your salvation is the same yesterday, today, and for all eternity.

We trust in you.

We rest in your perfect goodness.

Lord, reveal any places in our lives where we are not yet resting in the assurance of your salvation.

Bring them to light, and allow us to lean a bit more fully into your grace today.

As we walk through our day, use our very lives as you continue bringing the light of your salvation to this broken world.

Heighten our awareness to your salvation at work in your Kingdom today.

We confess our need for you today.

Help us not lose sight of you in the busyness of our lives today.

Help us hold tight to the promise of the salvation that only comes through you.

Evergreen: An Advent Podcast - Day 3 | El Elyon – The God Most High Dec 03, 2024

Today's Passage: Genesis 14:17-22

17 After his return from the defeat of Chedorlaomer and the kings who were with him, the king of Sodom went out to meet him at the Valley of Shaveh (that is, the King's Valley). 18 And Melchizedek king of Salem brought out bread and wine. (He was priest of God Most High.) 19 And he blessed him and said,

“Blessed be Abram by God Most High,
Possessor of heaven and earth;
20 and blessed be God Most High,
who has delivered your enemies into your hand!”

And Abram gave him a tenth of everything. 21 And the king of Sodom said to Abram, “Give me the persons, but take the goods for yourself.” 22 But Abram said to the king of Sodom, “I have lifted my hand to the Lord, God Most High, Possessor of heaven and earth…

Today's Prayer: El Elyon, God Most High, we praise You today because you are over everything in our lives – friendships, family, homes, work, brokenness, victory, and joy - all of it. We declare that there is nobody like You and we take comfort in knowing that you have positioned Yourself far above all that surrounds us in this world. Father, we recognize that “Faith doesn’t deny reality, it leaves room for You to grant a new reality” and so as your children, we’re asking You to do that very thing.

Thank you for Your goodness over us and Your presence with us.

Amen.

Today's Passage: Psalm 8

O Lord, our Lord,
how majestic is your name in all the earth!
You have set your glory above the heavens.

Out of the mouth of babies and infants,
you have established strength because of your foes,
to still the enemy and the avenger.

When I look at your heavens, the work of your fingers,
the moon and the stars, which you have set in place,

what is man that you are mindful of him,
and the son of man that you care for him?

Yet you have made him a little lower than the heavenly beings[b]
and crowned him with glory and honor.

You have given him dominion over the works of your hands;
you have put all things under his feet,

all sheep and oxen,
and also the beasts of the field,

the birds of the heavens, and the fish of the sea,
whatever passes along the paths of the seas.

O Lord, our Lord,
how majestic is your name in all the earth!

Today's Prayer: Father, we love you.

We are in awe of your faithfulness throughout every generation.

Thank you for revealing your sovereignty time and time again in your Word.

As we cry out to you today, remind us that you are Adonai, The LORD.

The one who rules over all creation.

As we cry out to you today, remind us that you are the God who holds all in perfect balance.

The one who was, who is, and who will always reign supreme.

As we cry out to you today, remind us that your sovereignty extends beyond our understanding.

You are the one who holds all things together and has good plans for your people.

You are Adonai, The LORD.

You are our sovereign King who reigns over all.

You proclaim blessing over your people, and we need only believe.

Open our ears and turn our hearts toward you today.

Allow our eyes to grasp the fullness of your glory
