Last week you and I studied the four things we need to survive as humans; air, water, food, and light. This week, you and I are going to dive into the four things we need to thrive as human beings.

What a privilege it is to study the Word with you and to remember that God provides everything you and I need on this planet. Air, water, food, and light. He provides these things physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually. He is everything we need. Jesus is the breath of life. He is the living water, the bread of life, and the light of the world. So, we're just going to meditate today on who He is to us, as we wrap up our week together.

Jesus says, I am the light of the world, and so even though we go through dark times in our lives and walk through dark valleys, we may feel like we're alone, but we are never alone. He is right beside us, lighting the way with hope. He knows just what we need when we need it. I want to invite you to join me today in John chapter eight. We are going to meet a woman who is in the darkest moment of her life. She's about to be murdered, or so she thinks, until Jesus the light of the world comes on the scene.

As human beings, we need four things to survive, air, water, food, and light. Technically, I guess coffee falls under the water category, but do you realize Jesus provides all of these things for us every day? He is the breath of life. He is the living water. He is the bread of life. He is the light of the world. All this week we are going to be exploring how Jesus provides all that you and I need.

You and I are on a battlefield every day, aren't we? It's called life. There's a battle between good and evil. There's a battle between good and bad choices, right? You and I are always making decisions as we interact with fellow human beings. God wants to remind you that He is with you, fighting for you. That's what we're learning this week on the battlefield. So let's talk about Joshua and the Battle of Jericho... Show Notes: https://bit.ly/3WZkcX9 ---------------- We’d love to encourage you to spend even more time in the word.

Battles don't always happen at places like Gettysburg and Normandy. Sometimes offices, playgrounds, classrooms, neighborhoods, you name it, can become battlefields. And that's why you and I are going to spend a little time this week getting battle ready. Let's get started in James, chapter one.

May the Lord bless you and protect you. May the Lord smile on you and be gracious to you. May the Lord show you his favor and give you his peace. The words of Moses are kicking off Joy Bombs in the Psalms today and we're going to be diving into Psalm 67, which interestingly enough is a little bit of a reprise of Moses's words, his beautiful prayer in Numbers 6:24-26.

Today's unsung hero is a young maid who played a crucial role in healing a mighty warrior, Naaman, from leprosy.

Today we're looking at two unsung heroes from the Bible: a poor widow and a man on death row. The widow, despite her poverty, gave all she had, demonstrating her faith and commitment. The man on death row, despite his crimes, reached out to Jesus in his final moments, showing his belief and repentance. God sees and values all people, no matter their circumstances.

Consider for a moment the great honor and joy of carrying out God's plan for your own life, and the rest of the whole world too. Those two things, the plans he has for you and the plans he has for this old world intersect and interact with each other. What a privilege! Today you and I are going to study another unsung hero in the Bible, a woman who had to do something hard twice, and yet when we pull back and zoom out, I think you and I are going to be amazed at what God did through this woman's courage.

If I were to ask you right now who your favorite Bible hero is, I imagine you would say David, with God's help, he slayed Goliath the giant, or Daniel. God rescued him from the lion's den, but unsung heroes, that's a little trickier. This week I googled unsung heroes of the Bible and two unusual names popped up, and right away I said, "Yes, let's do it"... Let's call the midwives!

God has a plan and a purpose for us, and it's good that he has a hope and a future for us. When our plans blow up, we know that Jesus hasn't given up on us.

You and I have only a few pieces of the puzzle on the coffee table of our lives, but God, He's got the box. He sees the cover, He sees your life and mine from beginning to end, and He is working from the moment we're born and we open our eyes, to the day we close our eyes for the final time on this earth. He is a Good Father, holding us tenderly within His care, in the midst of His plans for us.

If you filter everything that happens to you through, God is good and God loves me, you are going to be a much more peaceful person. Even when the plans that you had for your own life blow up in your face and you're sitting in the wreckage, you'll remember that God has a plan. And He uses all of it, all the good, all the bad, all the ugly for our good and His glory.
