This is the same pathway we have today; exactly the same. The armor of God prepares us to resist Satan through prayer; not through strength by which we are defeated. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/482220306745 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 24 Apr 2022 12:00:00 +0000 Dr. Leon L. Sanders 1:00:20 no Dr. Leon L. Sanders - Psalms https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/4122729163955 This psalm gives us a glimpse into the difficulty of Christ, who is God, to submit and control His fleshly body in order to die under God's wrath for us. It had never been done before by anyone. He was literally blazing a trail to the stauros. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/4122729163955 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 17 Apr 2022 12:00:00 +0000 Dr. Leon L. Sanders 1:17:45 no Dr. Leon L. Sanders - Psalms https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/327221543164100 This psalm gives us insight into the fact that Christ was not assured of success as the Paschal Lamb simply because He was God's Son. He had to earn His resurrection by choosing righteousness over self and sin even to death! He had to conquer Death to gain OUR salvation. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/327221543164100 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 10 Apr 2022 12:00:00 +0000 Dr. Leon L. Sanders 1:10:10 no Dr. Leon L. Sanders - Psalms https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/320221519502142 How long does discipline last? As long as we are alive. Christ had to learn experientially about the weakness of our flesh to have true compassion for us. This is why the Father gave Him authority to judge us. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/320221519502142 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 03 Apr 2022 12:00:00 +0000 Dr. Leon L. Sanders 0:58:55 no Dr. Leon L. Sanders - Psalms https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/31322186573690 When the psalmist writes of refuge we must understand God's reference to our souls in the new creation is primarily in focus. Otherwise our faith is in crisis when evil events overtake us in this life. Clearly, our physical bodies cannot exist outside of this creation; which is why we receive new bodies as Christ, our example, did. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/31322186573690 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 27 Mar 2022 12:00:00 +0000 Dr. Leon L. Sanders 1:09:44 no Dr. Leon L. Sanders - Psalms https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/33221553314960 All sinners reject God's Truth; hence, all worldviews are built on deception. Science began as natural philosophy to "prove" God but failed because science, empirical, cannot prove the non-empirical. Knowledge apart from God is deception. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/33221553314960 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 20 Mar 2022 12:00:00 +0000 Dr. Leon L. Sanders 1:10:44 no Dr. Leon L. Sanders - Psalms https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/225221951312206 Psalmist acknowledges that he rests in God's righteous mercy and not in works. For us this is even more true as we look toward the heavenly Jerusalem to come as Abraham. Or do we cling to our sinful worldview's in immaturity embracing our secret sins? https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/225221951312206 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 13 Mar 2022 12:00:00 +0000 Dr. Leon L. Sanders 1:18:04 no Dr. Leon L. Sanders - Psalms https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/21522205162557 Problem is not admitting sin exists; problem is admitting that sin exists in YOU! Sinners expend great energy promoting sin in others. Christian admits self- sin and repents which is evidenced by changes in how one speaks and acts. If more married couples did this there would be little domestic violence-arguments. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/21522205162557 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 06 Mar 2022 12:00:00 +0000 Dr. Leon L. Sanders 1:12:16 no Dr. Leon L. Sanders - Psalms https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/29221546146793 Everyone meditates continually just as everyone worships continually. The true issue is: "What do you meditate on?" Sadly, many Christians are embracing Yoga which is simply an ancient form of Satanic meditative practice to promote Control of self. They think they can channel this to godly faith when in fact they are being deluded into ungodly error. Psalms teach proper meditation on God. Christian must be aware of the differences in the goals of Satanic and godly meditation; they are vastly different. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/29221546146793 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 27 Feb 2022 12:00:00 +0000 Dr. Leon L. Sanders 1:16:37 no Dr. Leon L. Sanders - Psalms https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/252218106883 How do you pray? Why do you pray? When the apostles asked Christ to teach them how to pray He could have simply told them to read the Psalms. This is an introduction to intercessor prayer; God's way. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/252218106883 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 20 Feb 2022 12:00:00 +0000 Dr. Leon L. Sanders 0:58:17 no Dr. Leon L. Sanders - Psalms https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/129221518198020 Finishing up Psalm Four basically asks, "What is the foundation of your faith?" Is it material stuff/Control {Mammon} or is it "the city to come?" Faith has a purpose and a goal. What guides your faith? What is the goal of your faith? Will stand the test of persecution? Persecution is coming; indeed, it is already here! https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/129221518198020 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 13 Feb 2022 12:00:00 +0000 Dr. Leon L. Sanders 1:13:17 no Dr. Leon L. Sanders - Psalms https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/11922172588187 Anger is the "great soul killer" enticing Christians to condemn others while embracing their own slights in the throes of anger. This keeps one enslaved in degrading sin while seeking to rob one of reason. We must meditate, pray, on our sins rather than the sins of others to gain in Christ-like maturation and grow in humility via the Spirit and Christ. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/11922172588187 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 06 Feb 2022 12:00:00 +0000 Dr. Leon L. Sanders 1:17:12 no Dr. Leon L. Sanders - Psalms https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/11222215346694 The myth that a king rules absolutely is just that, a myth. Absalom led a coup against David only with the support of tribal elders who would just as easily remove him should he deviate from their expectations. Sinners are never free; they remain enslaved to Satan. Satan in his turn will never be in Control for he is also enslaved to sin. When he is seen with our "new" eyes we will wonder how he ever "fooled" us. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/11222215346694 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 30 Jan 2022 12:00:00 +0000 Dr. Leon L. Sanders 1:01:47 no Dr. Leon L. Sanders - Psalms https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/1622185357118 Psalm Three was the Morning Song probably coinciding with the Morning Sacrifice, when Christ went on the stauros. Psalm Four is the Evening Song probably coinciding with the evening sacrifice when Christ gave up His spirit on the stauros. Begins with grounding ALL prayer in Father's righteousness via Christ's faithfulness rather than our "wannas". https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/1622185357118 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 23 Jan 2022 12:00:00 +0000 Dr. Leon L. Sanders 0:52:28 no Dr. Leon L. Sanders - Psalms https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/1231211844117775 David harkens back to Moses to legitimacy in gathering his forces to repel Absalom. Christ harkens back to Moses reminding His people that that have NOT entered into His rest; yet. Christ prays to the Father who will arise when it is time for Christ to return. Psalm ends in the salvation rest just as Moses' prayer ends asking God to bless His people when they rest at their desired haven. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/1231211844117775 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 16 Jan 2022 12:00:00 +0000 Dr. Leon L. Sanders 1:02:59 no Dr. Leon L. Sanders - Psalms https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/1226211658282773 Christ could sleep amid the raging storms and the thousands of enemies arrayed against Him because of His faith in the Father based on His prayers via the Spirit while in the Flesh. This is the same mechanism we have in the New Covenant which we usually ignored; and thus, fail. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/1226211658282773 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 09 Jan 2022 12:00:00 +0000 Dr. Leon L. Sanders 0:54:45 no Dr. Leon L. Sanders - Psalms https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/1219211648586617 This lessons focus' our attention on Christ's humility by praying in the Spirit to the Father and being heard because He was faithful; and our example in all things. Thus, we should also pray as He prayed and not as we usually pray: for fleshly gratification. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/1219211648586617 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 02 Jan 2022 12:00:00 +0000 Dr. Leon L. Sanders 1:05:28 no Dr. Leon L. Sanders - Psalms https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/1212211054313786 We explore the historical context of this Psalm and what it reveals about David, us and Christ! While we are in sin and deserving of our consequences; Christ suffered as sin without sin for us long before the stauros. The major theme of His temptation: God, Father, will not save you! One doubt and no salvation for anyone including Christ. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/1212211054313786 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 26 Dec 2021 12:00:00 +0000 Dr. Leon L.

Sanders - Psalms https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/12821158163999 Though this final act of Psalm Two deals with nations, sheep and goats, responded to holy Christ's return as King; it begins at home with parents teaching children how to submit by their own examples of submission: or lack thereof. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/12821158163999 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 19 Dec 2021 12:00:00 +0000 Dr. Leon L.

Sanders - Psalms https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/1130211735262743 Father is not a bully nor is the Son threatening to crush every sinner under His boot as implied by a bare, literal reading of this passage. God has designated Christ to be His heir, King, and also His Priest to His people. Satan and sinners will have none of this. Christ's scepter of immutable iron is the Ten Words designed to produce the Beatitudes in believers. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/1130211735262743 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 12 Dec 2021 12:00:00 +0000 Dr. Leon L.

Sanders - Psalms https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/1123211629146669 Nations rage and people's murmur but God has already appointed His Son to be King over all governments and peoples to rule from Zion. Christ is our defense to protect us but too many Christians wish to act like they are still lost and charge into battle rather than stand and wait upon the Lord.

Sanders - Psalms https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/1118212328425366 God laughs at Satan and Man in their efforts to be like Him when they demonstrate nearly complete ignorance and lack of self-control. Their efforts demonstrate their utter sinfulness sin spite of God giving them absolute Truth in His word and His Som Who suffered God's wrath for sin. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/1118212328425366 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 28 Nov 2021 12:00:00 +0000 Dr. Leon L.

Sanders - Psalms https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/11142112853226 Psalm Two deals with corporate Man unifying in their rebellion against God, Father, and His Messiah {Christ}. It is the same today with Wokeness and the Great Reset {Building Back Better}. Though they appear to prevail; they will not prevent God's plan. They plot in vain. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/11142112853226 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 21 Nov 2021 12:00:00 +0000 Dr. Leon L. Sanders 1:27:39 no Dr. Leon L. Sanders - Psalms https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/112212317355134 Psalm One begins with personal accountability for choices; however, it ends with accountability for agreeing to live one's life according to sin! It is Christ alone who saves but each person, saved and lost, must give account for sin in one's life. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/112212317355134 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 14 Nov 2021 12:00:00 +0000 Dr. Leon L.

Sanders - Psalms https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/1017211729141031 Psalms is not about us; it is about the Father and often between the Father and Son who paid the price for our sin. It is music designed to direct our attention to God's holiness, righteousness and sacrifice for His creation: Man. It is a study in humility and not a celebration of Man's piety. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/discernlife/sermons/1017211729141031 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 31 Oct 2021 12:00:00 +0000 Dr. Leon L.
