Sunday’s Readings

Daniel 7:1-3, 15-18 Psalm 149 Ephesians 1:11-23 Luke 6:20-31

Dr. Adam Johnson explores the lessons for this week and shows that ultimate power belongs to Christ and is seated with Him at the right hand of the Father. He also points out that because of this, part of our inheritance as children of God is to “judge the nations,” which means that we are called to lead all people to a life of faith and assist them in walking in the ways that are pleasing in God’s sight. Finally, when looking at these readings as a whole, we are offered a different perspective on things like suffering and how we can celebrate in it; justice and how it nurtures all people; prayer and how that is something that happens on a larger scale rather than only in our individual needs; and much more.
