The Providence of
God
The doctrine of God’s providence reveals
His continual care, guidance, and control over creation and the lives of
His people. Though unseen, His hand directs all things toward His divine
purpose. Understanding providence strengthens our faith, assuring us
that God works in every circumstance for the good of those who love Him. |

Our Great and
Awesome God
Psalm 139.
This psalm is
sometimes called “the crown of the Psalms.” David here paints a
portrait of God probably surpassed in beauty. A tribute to Jehovah
God in which David presents the makeup of God and his
characteristics for all humanity to see. The rider pictures him as
all-knowing, all-seeing, all-powerful, and finally, all-holy. |
|
The Names of God
- Part 1
(Genesis 3:20) “And Adam called his wife’s name Eve, because she was
the mother of all living.” In this lesson, we begin a series
studying the names of God revealed in Scripture. Each name shows us
something about His nature, His character, and His presence among
His people. |
|
The Names of God
- Part 2
Elohim and Yahweh: The God Who Is and Reigns
(Exodus 3:14–15) God reveals His personal name—“I AM.” Tonight we
study the two most common names of God in Scripture, Elohim and
Yahweh, to know His nature and proclaim His name. |
Names of God
– Part 3
Exodus 3:14
In this study of God’s names, we
see His character revealed through covenant and
action. Yahweh—meaning “I Am”—shows Himself as
eternal, faithful, and personal. Each title,
such as The Lord Will Provide, The Lord My
Banner, and The Lord Is Peace, reveals His
power, presence, and care for His people.
|
|
Names of God
- Part 4
God reveals His nature through His names—each one
uncovering a vital aspect of His character and relationship with His
people. In this lesson, we explore five divine names that teach us about
His power, holiness, truth, and care, helping us know and worship Him
with deeper reverence and trust. |
|
There Is
Much in a Name
Exodus 9:16
In the Hebrew language, a name reveals the character and nature
of a person. The same is true for God. Through His names, we
learn who He is, what He does, and how He relates to His people.
As the Lord told Pharaoh, His power and His name are to be
declared in all the earth (Exodus 9:16). |
|
God Will Provide
Philippians 4:19 — “And my God shall supply all your need according to His
riches in glory by Christ Jesus.” This passage reminds us that God’s
provision is not limited by circumstance or scarcity. Throughout Scripture,
He has shown Himself faithful to those who trust Him, including the widow of
2 Kings 4:1–7. |
|
The Goodness and
Severity of God
Romans 11:22 teaches, “Therefore consider the goodness and severity
of God: on those who fell, severity; but toward you, goodness, if
you continue in His goodness. Otherwise you also will be cut off.”
God’s nature has not changed. From Genesis to Revelation, He remains
both merciful and just. |
|
Our
Wonderful God
Psalm 145:1–3 reminds us
to lift our eyes to the greatness of God. In our fast-paced lives filled
with responsibilities and distractions, it’s easy to lose focus on Him.
Yet we must pause to remember who God is—holy, all-knowing,
all-powerful, and infinitely good. |
(Isaiah 6:1–3)
What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most
important thing about us. Our worship rises or falls according to
our thoughts of Him. When we fail to love God as we should, it is
because we have forgotten who He truly is. Let us remind ourselves
of the greatness and glory of Jehovah by studying His attributes
revealed in His Word. |
|
What Do You
Think About God?
Psalm 93:5 teaches that “Holiness adorns Your house, O Lord,
forever.” In our busy lives, we sometimes forget to reflect on who
God truly is. When we understand His nature—holy, eternal,
all-knowing, powerful, and just—we deepen our love and reverence for
Him. |
|
The Promises of
God
2 Peter 1:2–4 reminds us that through God’s promises we become
partakers of the divine nature. The child of God can always turn to
Scripture for peace, comfort, and assurance. The Bible is filled
with promises that reveal the goodness and faithfulness of our God.
Let’s examine a few of these precious promises together. |
|
The Justice of God
Romans 2:4–11 teaches that God is both good and severe, patient and just.
While the thought of His justice may seem uncomfortable, it reminds us that
God is holy, righteous, and fair. The same God who loves and forgives also
judges and punishes sin. Understanding His justice helps us better
appreciate His mercy and the salvation He offers through Christ. |
|
Drawing Near to
God
Hebrews 10:22 calls us to come into God’s presence “with a true
heart in full assurance of faith,” with cleansed consciences and
lives. This lesson sets out the conditions God gives for truly
drawing near to Him—heart, faith, and conscience shaped by Christ. |
|
Show Me Your Glory
Exodus 33:17–23 records Moses’ bold request, “Please, show
me Your glory.” After Israel’s sin with the golden calf,
Moses longed for renewed closeness with God. Though God
would not let him see His face, He revealed something far
greater—His divine nature and character. What follows in
Exodus 34:1–9 is God’s own description of Himself. |
Genesis 1:1 declares, “In the beginning God created
the heavens and the earth.” Those who grew up
hearing the story of creation are truly blessed. The
power of God to speak material things into existence
from nothing is beyond our comprehension. We worship
an awesome Creator who not only made the physical
world but also life, spirit, and new creation in
Christ. |
|
Who Is
God?
Why is this question important? It is important because your
view of who God is shapes your view of yourself and how you
should live in this world. The source of our information
about God must be His revealed Word. (2 Timothy 3:16–17) So
who is God? |
|
God’s Righteous Anger
Both the Old
and New Testaments tell us of God’s wrath—His divine anger—described in
Scripture as “flaring nostrils.” This righteous anger is grounded in His
justice and holiness. (Deuteronomy 4:25–26) One of the primary purposes
of God’s anger is to turn His people from sin and lead them back to
faithfulness. (Deuteronomy 13:16–18) Scripture reminds us that Jehovah
is a consuming fire who will ultimately destroy all who oppose His
holiness. Because He is a jealous God, He demands complete commitment
and loyalty from His people. |
|
What Does the
Bible Say About God?
Who is God? Scripture answers. “I am the Lord, and
there is none else.” (Isaiah 45:5–6) Today we behold His oneness,
justice, power, holiness, mercy, faithfulness, and saving will, so
our worship is pure, our obedience sincere, and our hope steadfast
in the God who reveals Himself in His Word. |
|
Trinity of Trinities
“A threefold cord is not quickly broken.” (Ecclesiastes 4:12) Scripture
reveals God as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Today we consider two earthly
“trinities”—human nature and God-centered marriage—to behold the unity and
beauty of the divine Three-in-One. |
“Do not fear those who kill the body… but rather fear Him who is
able to destroy both soul and body in hell” (Matthew 10:28). Godly
fear is essential, shaping our hearts, choices, and hope. |
Behemoth,
Leviathan, and the Fear of the Lord.
“Then the Lord answered Job out of the whirlwind” (Job 38:1–3;
40:1–5; 41:1–11). God teaches Job—and us—the difference between
Creator and creature. |
(Ephesians 3:21, “To Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations.”
God’s purpose for His people is clear: glorify Him. Today we examine
how a congregation brings glory to God—in worship, benevolence,
teaching the lost, and strengthening the saved. (Ephesians 3:21) |
|
The Goodness and
Severity of God In
1 Peter 3:15, Christians are called to be ready to defend their faith
with meekness and reverence. Many claim the God of the Old Testament
differs from the God of the New—angry then, loving now. But Scripture
reveals He has never changed. God’s nature is eternally just, merciful,
and unchanging. |
