Pilate’s wife

 Here’s today’s song. It’s called:

Pilate’s wife

See women in the Passion , see it in Creation 

Eve is Adam's other side 

Pilate's wife feared for her life 

Knew nowhere her husband could hide 

Dreams are often accurate, a restful mind is strong 

Don't judge a book by its cover 

Women's intuition, significant suspicion 

Eve was way more than Adam's lover 

Had Pilate listened, actually heard 

Don't know if Passion could’ve changed 

One things for certain, when Jesus tore the curtain 

All our sin for Him was exchanged

Dreams are often accurate, a restful mind is strong 

Don't judge a book by its cover 

Women's intuition, significant suspicion 

Eve was way more than Adam's lover 

Dreams are often accurate, a restful mind is strong 

Don't judge a book by its cover 

Women's intuition, significant suspicion 

Eve was way more than Adam's lover.

Genesis 2:21-22

21 So the LORD God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep; and while he was sleeping, he took one of the man’s ribs and then closed up the place with flesh. 22 Then the LORD God made a woman from the rib he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man.

Matthew 27:19

While Pilate was sitting on the judge’s seat, his wife sent him this message: “Don’t have anything to do with that innocent man, for I have suffered a great deal today in a dream because of him.”

You renew

 Here’s today’s song. It’s called:

You renew

2024, a  year of renewal, a brain that was hurt, renewed 

This year the heart, I offer at start 

My worship not yet to conclude 

My task at hand, not conform to a land 

Be transformed by Your renewal 

Test and approve, Your will is my groove 

Perfect, I live through accrual 

Finish strong, live long 

My worship is what I offer 

While I'm still living, it's me that I'm giving 

Don't finish a scorner or scoffer 

My task at hand, not conform to a land 

Be transformed by Your renewal 

Test and approve, Your will is my groove 

Perfect, I live through accrual 

My task at hand, not conform to a land 

Be transformed by Your renewal 

Test and approve, Your will is my groove 

Perfect, I live through accrual.

Romans 12:1-2

A Living Sacrifice

Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is —his good, pleasing and perfect will.

Nothing to do with dirt

 Here’s today’s song. It’s called:

Nothing to do with dirt 

Identity's not national, nor is it political 

Spiritual is the only share  

Levites got The Lord, in today's sense they scored 

God can consistently care

Nothing to do with dirt 

Land can end in hurt

People protect the border 

God is over Earth, He's your place of birth 

He made you, knows you, has all things in order 

Look ahead to His return, He's coming back to Earth 

Again He'll be the One to move the dial 

Peter even knew, his catch of fish was through 

he walked on water even through denial 

Nothing to do with dirt 

Land can end in hurt

People protect the border 

God is over Earth, He's your place of birth 

He made you, knows you, has all things in order 

Nothing to do with dirt 

Land can end in hurt

People protect the border 

God is over Earth, He's your place of birth 

He made you, knows you, has all things in order.

Deuteronomy 10:9

That is why the Levites have no share or inheritance among their fellow Israelites; the LORD is their inheritance, as the LORD your God told them.)

Matthew 16:16

Simon Peter answered, “You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God.”

Ancientdom

Imagine the regret, the horror of the scene 

Vipers all around and no way out 

Knowing you'll be struck, you've made this mire and muck 

You see Bronze snake, in pain you scream and shout 

Damaged and in pain, you feel your strength regain 

Somehow you saw and now you live 

God's your second chance, all you did was glance 

You now see all there is to give 

You're seeing through the years, Salvation through tears 

You can't know why but somehow know He sees us

You want eternal life, you know you've caused this strife 

Lifted up is your Saviour Jesus. 

Numbers 21:8-9

The LORD said to Moses, “Make a snake and put it up on a pole; anyone who is bitten can look at it and live.” So Moses made a bronze snake and put it up on a pole. Then when anyone was bitten by a snake and looked at the bronze snake, they lived.

John 3:14-15

Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the wilderness, so the Son of Man must be lifted up, that everyone who believes may have eternal life in him.”

Humble Assurance

Faithfully brave, humbly sure 

Surety safeguards a saint 

Saviour says all things are His ways 

Son selects saint or no saint 

Magic , murder, morality mounts

Hell's no laughing matter 

Monstrous, massive, don't be passive

Move above the clatter.

Luke 10:22

22 “All things have been committed to me by my Father. No one knows who the Son is except the Father, and no one knows who the Father is except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.”

Revelation 21:8

But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars —they will be consigned to the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death.”

Am I the rabble?

 Here’s today’s song. It’s called:

Am I the rabble 

I don't know but You do, what we each are

I'm who You say I am 

whether I'm the rabble, bringing thankless babble 

May die in the desert, damned 

Oddly, I'm not damned, here I stand alive 

I didn't get what I deserve

Three days in the grave, Christ, who died, can save

He came not to condemn, but to serve 

Since, alas, I'm saved, all I can do 

Follow and obey, He's leading 

Once in His Word, I'm now seen and heard 

Obedience for me is keep on reading 

Oddly, I'm not damned, here I stand alive 

I didn't get what I deserve

Three days in the grave, Christ, who died, can save

He came not to condemn, but to serve 

Oddly, I'm not damned, here I stand alive 

I didn't get what I deserve

Three days in the grave, Christ, who died, can save

He came not to condemn, but to serve. 

Numbers 11:4-6

Quail From the LORD

The rabble with them began to crave other food, and again the Israelites started wailing and said, “If only we had meat to eat! We remember the fish we ate in Egypt at no cost—also the cucumbers, melons, leeks, onions and garlic. But now we have lost our appetite; we never see anything but this manna! ”

Mark 10:33-34

33 “We are going up to Jerusalem,” he said, “and the Son of Man will be delivered over to the chief priests and the teachers of the law. They will condemn him to death and will hand him over to the Gentiles, 34 who will mock him and spit on him, flog him and kill him. Three days later he will rise.”

Lead Well to Be Pursued

 Lead Well to Be Pursued

Text: Isaiah 35:10 (ESV)

“And the ransomed of the Lord shall return and come to Zion with singing; everlasting joy shall be upon their heads; they shall obtain gladness and joy, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away.”

---

Introduction

Every man longs to feel wanted by his wife—to be admired, respected, and even pursued. But pursuit doesn’t just happen. It’s the fruit of godly leadership. In Isaiah 35:10, we see God’s people joyfully returning to Him because He made a way and went before them. In the same way, when a man leads well, his wife is drawn to him with joy. Leadership unlocks pursuit.

---

Point 1: Step Out in Front – Leadership Precedes Pursuit

Biblical Insight:

God’s people returned to Zion because God took the initiative. A man must also take the first step. Leadership is about direction, not domination.

Scripture Reference:

“For the husband is the head of the wife even as Christ is the head of the church.” – Ephesians 5:23

Personal Application:

• Spiritually: Be the one to initiate prayer, Bible reading, and church involvement.

• Relationally: Don’t wait for her to fix what’s broken. Plan the date night. Make the first move toward reconciliation.

• Practically: Set financial goals. Make plans for your family’s future. Lead with intention.

Challenge:

Pick one area—spiritual, relational, or practical—and take one bold, intentional step this week.

---

Point 2: Lead with Love – The Path to Joyful Pursuit

Biblical Insight:

Joy comes when love leads. Christ laid down His life for the church; real leadership in marriage reflects that same sacrificial love.

Scripture Reference:

“Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her.” – Ephesians 5:25

Personal Application:

• Listen well. Be fully present in conversation.

• Serve her. Do the small things—dishes, errands, chores she didn’t ask you to do.

• Speak life. Affirm her daily—not just her beauty, but her character and strength.

Challenge:

Send a daily note or text this week sharing one specific thing you admire or appreciate about her.

---

Point 3: Create a Vision Worth Following

Biblical Insight:

The people in Isaiah 35:10 were returning with joy because they were going somewhere—Zion. A man must lead his family with a clear sense of purpose and direction.

Scripture Reference:

“Where there is no vision, the people perish.” – Proverbs 29:18 (KJV)

Personal Application:

• Talk about the future. Where do you see your marriage and family in 5 years?

• Invite her into your dreams. Ask her what she’s passionate about.

• Move with purpose. Don’t wait for “someday.” Start building now.

Challenge:

Plan a “vision night.” Share goals, pray together, and write down a direction for your family. Revisit it monthly.

---

Conclusion

Isaiah 35:10 is a picture of joyful return. God’s people pursued Him because He went before them. If you want to be pursued by your wife, step into godly leadership—go first, lead with love, and cast vision. When you do, you create a marriage where pursuit, passion, and purpose flourish.
