His Treasured Possession

November 23, 2025 /

Today is the last Sunday of the Church year. Today’s Scripture is from Malachi 3.

There were those who neither feared the Lord nor saw the value in it. They mocked God and following the way of righteousness.

They shall be Mine, says the LORD of hosts, in the day when I make up my treasured possession, and I will spare them as a man spares His son who serves him.

Malachi 3:17

This, of course, is nothing unique to that time. We see it all too often – and we expect it among unbelievers, but the fact is that it is common many times among believers as well!

If we believe in God and know Him to be our God and Savior; if we worship Him as Lord; if we claim to be His disciples, we must act as He dictates and live as His Word prescribes. We must show in our actions the righteousness that sets us apart in our Faith. We must live out our distinction.

This is not a blasé matter as many Christians take it; but rather a fundamental Truth: Faithful people must produce faithful fruit. If our fruit stinks, we must examine the state of our hearts and our faith. And when we find rot, confess and receive a new, righteous heart, focused on Him.

God says that when we fear the Lord and esteem His name, we shall be His treasured possession! And we fear and esteem Him when we put our faith and trust in Jesus as our Lord and Savior!

We are His treasured possession! How wonderful!

May our fruit reflect that reality in Jesus!

“Lord, we love You. We fear You. We esteem You. We believe in You. We trust You. And we want to live in the fruit of our righteousness through faithful living by the power of Your Holy Spirit. Help and move us to produce good, righteous fruit that reflects our status as Your treasurer possession so all we meet may be drawn to You, too. In Jesus’ name. Amen.”

Scriptures

  • Malachi 3:16-18
  • Matthew 12:33-37

November 6, 2025 /

Are you feeling the call to GO? 

We have three options this year for you to answer that question!

Then Jesus Came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”

Matthew 28:18-20

GraceWorks Alaska

Background

For those called to Mission but not to Africa, there is another opportunity!

Amy (who was on our team), has been a leader with GraceWorks Alaska a couple of times now. When I (Angie) came back from Kenya and shared a few stories with the Battle group a few of the youth expressed wanting to go on a trip. So, I gathered more information.

“Coming Home for Christmas” — An Advent Series

November 4, 2025 /

The book of Isaiah spans one of the most turbulent periods in Israel’s history. Isaiah prophesied during the 8th century B.C., a time when the once-unified kingdom of Israel had divided into the northern kingdom (Israel) and the southern kingdom (Judah). As Assyria’s power surged across the ancient Near East, the northern kingdom fell to its armies in 722. Meanwhile, Judah watched as the threat of foreign domination grew.

Isaiah’s ministry in the capital of Judah, Jerusalem, spanned the reigns of several kings, including Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah (Isa. 1:1). He warned Judah about the consequences of their idolatry, injustice, and misplaced trust in political alliances rather than in the Lord. His early prophecies focus on coming judgment, yet they are also laced with hope, most famously in the promise of Immanuel, “God with us” (Isa. 7:14).

The later chapters of Isaiah reflect a shift in tone and timeline, addressing a people either in exile or anticipating it. By then, Assyria had waned, and Babylon had risen to dominate the region, eventually conquering Jerusalem and carrying many Judeans into exile in 586 B.C. These later chapters speak with extraordinary hope about God’s power to redeem, restore, and bring his people home through this Immanuel, his one and only son, Jesus.

It is Jesus, the incarnation of the living God, who Isaiah promised would come as a child born, a son given (Isa. 9:7). Jesus, the holy seed (Isa. 6:13) from the root of Jesse (Isa. 11:10), who would go to the cross for our sake: “being despised and rejected” and “pierced for our transgressions; crushed for our iniquities” (Isa. 53:3,5). In the midst of exile, Isaiah prophesied only one way home to our God: through the arrival of the God-man, Jesus.
Author Name

As Pastor Matt Popovits (the author of this series) writes, “What becomes plain [through the book of Isaiah] is this: when Jesus comes, he brings with him a Kingdom. A reign. A Home and haven under God’s care that is very, very good.”

This Advent, we will focus on several passages in Isaiah where the promises of God – fulfilled in either Jesus’ arrival or his second coming – proclaim to us that while we long to find peace, belonging, and comfort this time of year, our ultimate Christmas gift is our citizenship in his kingdom. For He is the Home who has come to win us back from exile, keep us safe in His embrace, and promises that we will someday reside with Him forever.
