This week's episode of the FBC Friday Focus has us in the book of Malachi. This is where we see Jesus as the Sun of Righteousness. Twins Jacob and Esau, look alike but Jacob and Esau had been very different. Jacob, set apart- the favored one; Esau the God-hater, in arrogance, refusing to follow Him.  Yet, Israel has broken their covenant and though they look alike, their descendants are twins on a...  Read More

Have you ever considered that God loves you so much simply for the fact that you are His? Do you know that you have been created by the Creator of the Universe for the simple joy of you creating you? You don't have to earn His love or be fearful of losing His love. It's right there in Zephaniah. God rejoices over you with singing! (v 3:17) You are His and you are loved!

The little known book of Nahum shows us a BIG picture of Jesus. Nahum means "Comfort" so how does Nahum bring comfort to Israel. In keeping with the other books of the Old Testament we see yet another picture of Jesus as our Savior and Judge. Nahum prophesies against Nineveh, again. Symbolic of the "world" and the rejection of the Lord, Nineveh finds itself as the object of God's judgement, His wr...  Read More

The book of Micah paints another picture of Jesus. This week, we see very clearly, the hope of Jesus, our coming Messiah. Micah points us to the promised King - Jesus- 700 years before he actually arrives! Just like Israel, every single one of us is broken and in spiritual ruin but because of Jesus we have hope. We are no longer defined by our history, but by our destiny. Be encouraged!...  Read More

Our God is a God of second chances. Even when you think it's all over, He comes through. There is always something to learn and it is always for His glory. He can resurrect anything doomed for destruction. The greatest come back story of all time is the story of Jonah. In the Book of Jonah we see a picture of Jesus as the Resurrected One. Jonah is THE sign of the resurrection. Jonah points to Jesu...  Read More

We see another picture of Jesus in the Book of Obediah. At 21 verses, Obediah, the shortest book in the Old Testament, shows us a prophecy of Jesus, as the deliverer of his people. Seemingly a prophecy of great judgement, Obediah points us to the day of the Lord when there will be deliverance on Mount Zion. There are many who stand opposed to God's Kingdom who will face judgement and separation fr...  Read More

One of the most beautiful pictures we see of Jesus in the book of Amos is found in chapter 9. We see the one who restores the tabernacle--God's dwelling place. Jesus its the descendant of David who tabernacles among us that we might know Him. He is the presence of God here with us. The tabernacle had been destroyed and God's people exiled during Amos' time. God offered a new way (a new wine) for p...  Read More

This week, we have another picture of Jesus seen in the Old Testament. Joel prophesies Jesus' crucifixion and other signs that the day of the Lord has come. Jesus is the One who sends His Spirit to dwell among us. Joel points us to Jesus and points us to the place of restoration. Just like the ancient Jews we too must choose where we will place our faith. Enjoy!...  Read More
