Peter Roselle: The Treasure of Your Word Defends My Heart from Sin (Psalm 119:11)

Peter Roselle: The Treasure of Your Word Defends My Heart from Sin (Psalm 119:11)
Peter speaks at King of Kings Worship Center on February 5, 2023.
Psalm 119:11 (NASB) says, “I have treasured Your word in my heart, so that I may not sin against You.” Psalm 119:9-11 (Voice) says, “How can a young person remain pure? Only by living according to Your word. I have pursued You with my whole heart; do not let me stray from Your commands. Deep within me I have hidden Your word so that I will never sin against You.”

You’ve been “blessed to be a blessing.” (Genesis 12:2) Pay it forward!

Ephesians 6
10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might.
11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.
13 Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
14 Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth…”

Covered the last two weeks:
17 “the sword of the Spirit which is the (rhema, spoken) word of God.”
16 “Above all, taking the shield of faith”

1 Peter 1 (Voice)
23 You have been reborn—not from seed that eventually dies but from seed that is eternal—through the word of God that lives and endures forever.

John 3
19 "This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but people loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil."

John 1 (Voice)
1 Before time itself was measured, the Voice was speaking. The Voice was and is God.
2 This celestial Word remained ever present with the Creator;
3 His speech shaped the entire cosmos. Immersed in the practice of creating, all things that exist were birthed in Him.
4 His breath filled all things with a living, breathing light—
5 A light that thrives in the depths of darkness, blazes through murky bottoms. It cannot and will not be quenched.

Acts 19 (Voice)
1 Paul’s overland journey brought him back to Ephesus.
11 God did amazing miracles through Paul.
12 People would take a handkerchief or article of clothing that had touched Paul’s skin and bring it to their sick friends or relatives, and the patients would be cured of their diseases or released from the evil spirits that oppressed them.
17 Everyone was shocked and realized that the name of Jesus was indeed powerful and praiseworthy.
18 As a result, a number of people involved in various occult practices came to faith. They confessed their secret practices and rituals.
19 Some of them had considerable libraries about their magic arts; they piled up their books and burned them publicly. Someone estimated the value of the books to be 50,000 silver coins.
20 Again, word spread, and the message of the Lord overcame resistance and spread powerfully.
24 An idol maker named Demetrius had a profitable business, for himself and for others, making silver shrines for Artemis (also known as Diana by the Romans), one of the deities worshiped in Ephesus.
25 Demetrius: Men, we are all colleagues in this fine line of work. We’re making a good living doing what we’re doing. But we’d better wake up, or we’re all going to go broke.
26 You’ve heard about this fellow Paul. Here in Ephesus, he’s already convinced a large number of people to give up using idols. He tells them that our products are worthless. He’s been doing this same kind of thing almost everywhere in Asia.
27 It’s bad enough that he is slandering our fine and honorable profession, but do you see where this will lead? If his lies catch on, the temple of Artemis itself will be called a fraud. The great goddess of our region, the majestic deity who is revered here in Asia and around the world, will be disgraced.
28 The crowd goes wild with rage. They start chanting, “Great is Artemis of the Ephesians! Great is Artemis of the Ephesians!”
34 For two solid hours they keep the chant going.
20:1 As soon as the uproar ended, Paul gathered the disciples together, encouraged them once more, said farewell, and left on foot.

1 Corinthians 15 (Voice)
30 Why are we putting our lives on the line all the time if there’s no resurrection?
32 But if I have fought against the wild beasts in Ephesus for some human cause, then what good has that done me?

1 Timothy 1 (Voice)
3 Stay in Ephesus and instruct the unruly people in the church, once and for all, to stop teaching a different doctrine.
4 Tell them to turn away from fables and endless genealogies. These activities just cause more arguments and confusion.
