The King’s People
The King's Victory
April 5, 2020
Rev. Gabe Sylvia
In this Holy Week sermon the church is urged to follow Psalm 20 by regularly praying for, reminding, and encouraging one another in God’s greatness so no disciple walks the path alone and each can begin their days in victory.
Summary
As we enter Holy Week and the 'Victory of the King' series, the preacher draws on Psalm 20 to show the congregation’s role: like the people who called on God for the king, Christians must regularly pray for one another, ask God to fulfill his plans for fellow believers, and continually remind each other of who God is. This corporate calling is practical and mutual—brothers and sisters should not travel the disciple’s path alone but should instruct, encourage, and intercede so that each person can live and start their days with confidence and victory in the Lord.
