by Pastor Chris Parker – Psalm 86:5
Elisha’s calling and early ministry reflect his deep humility and faithfulness. He willingly leaves behind wealth, family, and comfort to follow Elijah, serves with patience, and remains loyal even in testing. He doesn’t demand power or recognition but seeks God’s help to fulfill his role. Through each step—from his apprenticeship to his prophetic ministry—Elisha shows humility in placing God’s mission above personal gain and remains faithful in delivering God’s word and guidance.
God instructed Moses to go to Pharaoh and demand the release of His people. Moses, feeling unqualified and fearful, offered several objections, expressing doubts about his own abilities and about whether the Israelites would believe him. In response, God reassured Moses, revealing His name, “I AM THAT I AM” (Exodus 3:14, KJV), and equipping him with signs, such as turning his staff into a serpent and his hand leprous, to prove God’s power.
Psalm 100 is a powerful call to joyful worship and thanksgiving to the Lord. This psalm reminds us of God’s sovereignty, goodness, and everlasting mercy, encouraging believers to serve Him with glad hearts and enter His presence with praise.

The Gospel of Mark stands out as a fast-moving, action-packed account of Jesus’ ministry, portraying Him as the Servant of God who came to serve and give His life for others. Unlike the other Gospels, Mark skips over Jesus’ birth and early life, diving straight into His public ministry, which reflects its emphasis on what Jesus did more than what He said.
