Names of God (Ehyeh) Part 5

Names of God (Ehyeh) Part 5

I Am the Good Shepherd: Psalm 23 and John 10. Ps. Ryan continues the “Names of God” series by connecting Exodus 3:14 (“I AM”) with Jesus’ declaration in John 10:11-16 that He is the Good Shepherd who lays down His life for the sheep, bringing both Israel and Gentiles into one flock. Using Psalm 23:1-4, it explains that “The Lord (Yahweh) is my shepherd” is God’s promise to provide, while “I shall not want” is the believer’s response to desire God above His gifts, rejecting a “vending machine” faith. Ps. Ryan emphasizes worship and commitment rather than church-hopping, and teaches that the Shepherd makes sheep rest, leads them to green pastures and still waters, and restores “cast” sheep through patient, protective care. Even in the “valley of the shadow of death,” believers can walk without fear because the Shepherd is with them. ——— Join us for our Sunday services at 10 AM and 4 PM.

Abba Father (Ps. Imee Francisco)

Abba Father: From Orphan Spirit to Adopted Sonship In this Father’s Day message by Ps. Imee Francisco titled “Abba Father, the cry that was always yours” explores the word “Abba” being mentioned three times in Scripture—Romans 8:15, Galatians 4:6, and Jesus’ prayer in Gethsemane (“Abba Father… not my will but yours”).  Ps. Imee teaches that crying “Abba” is not human effort but a gift given through the Holy Spirit because of Christ’s finished work, emphasizing God as a personal, good Father regardless of one’s earthly father experience. The sermon identifies “orphan spirit” mindsets—seeking love apart from God, comparison, internal strife, overperformance for approval, and confirmation bias from pain—and urges believers to replace them with their inheritance as adopted children, grounded in Scripture and the Spirit’s witness. It ends with a call to forgive, surrender wounds, and worship God as Abba. ------- Join us for our Sunday services at 10 AM and 4 PM.

The Everlasting Father (Ps. Yen de Felipe)

Jesus is our Everlasting Father.  Ps. Yen's sermon centers on Jesus as “Everlasting Father” from Isaiah 9:6, explaining it is not a Christmas sermon but a call to deeper understanding.  Using King Josiah’s story, we see how responding to God’s Word can break generational patterns: Josiah sought God despite a wicked family line, repented when the Book of the Law was found, and was guided by mentors. The church is urged to help address fatherlessness by mentoring and “keeping the flame” of faith. Ultimately, reforms are temporary, but Jesus—the Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, and Prince of Peace—changes hearts and answers deep questions of identity, being known, seen, and never abandoned. Key verse - Isaiah 9:6 (NIV) For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. ------- Join us for our Sunday services at 10 AM and 4 PM.

Names of God (Ehyeh) Part 3

Part six of “Names of God” focuses on Ehyeh/Ehyeh Asher Ehyeh (“I Am That I Am”), citing Exodus 33:19 and connecting it to Jesus’ “I am” declarations, including John 18 where His words cause the arresting party to fall. Ps. Ryan explains God’s names as covenant “signatures,” emphasizing God’s self-existent nature and His choice to enter human need. Jesus is presented as the bread of life and light of the world, like the burning bush that was not consumed, and believers as carriers of God’s fire through the Holy Spirit (Acts 2). “Glory” (kavod) is taught as weight, illustrated through gravity, relativity, and black holes to show God’s irresistible pull and His ability to see the end from the beginning. ——— Join us for our Sunday services at 10 AM and 4 PM.
