Our guest speaker Vincent Wong preached this sermon on the self-declaration of the name of God in Exodus 34. God does indeed reveal His glory in all His goodness to His people.

Jesus selflessly gave Himself up for us, a profound truth vividly displayed in the scene of His arrest. In these eleven verses, John reveals how Jesus truly surrendered Himself for our salvation. His rejection of personal gain, self-preservation, and self-centeredness exposes our own selfishness, highlighting our need for the Savior and repentance. May the Holy Spirit guide us to behold Jesus’ glory in His self-sacrifice, repent of our sinfulness, and grow in grace.

Worship is the insignia of salvation. We who wish for all our children to be saved must pass down to them an enthusiastic worship of the LORD. This is the pattern revealed in Psalm 145. Extolment of our God passes from personal to generational to universal, and the character of that worship is seen as reverberative, personal, constant, wonderful (full of wonder), and faith-ful (full of faith). May the extolment of our great God be the legacy we leave behind.

The visions of the end times events are now complete. As the book of Revelation draws to a close, John conveys to us the last words of our Lord and underscores three themes of revelation, overcoming, and imminence. They teach us that we are to trust, know, preserve, and heed His revelation to us. His core message in this book can be captured in the one word “overcome.” The true overcomer in the book of Revelation is the Lord Himself. This reveals the nature of our overcoming efforts. We overcome in Christ. it is only as we abide in Christ and He abides in us that we overcome. He has conquered and He enables us to do the same in this sin infested and corrupt world. He guides us in the pathway to heaven which is the pathway of sanctification. The urgency of this matter is seen in the resounding reminder that the coming of the Lord for rapture is imminent. May the Holy Spirit give all of us the wisdom to walk closely with the Lord and be ready for Him whenever that day comes.
