Knowing God - Part 1

Pastor Chris Gordon preaches on Psalm 139, exploring God's omniscience and omnipresence as the antidote to the anxiety, isolation, and emptiness that mark modern life. He shows that God's exhaustive knowledge of us, rather than being threatening, becomes our greatest comfort once we are hidden and covered in Christ's righteousness, since God's knowledge of His people is no longer used against them but to uphold and lead them. Drawing on David's own failures and need for refuge, the sermon emphasizes that no circumstance—not heaven, death, the depths of the sea, or darkness itself—can separate a believer from God's presence and guiding hand. The message points to Romans 8 and Christ as mediator, affirming that nothing in life or death can separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus. The sermon closes urging listeners to know God personally, find security in His unfailing presence, and trust Him to lead them in the way everlasting.
