• A Preacher of Righteousness Resting in Grace: A Message from Genesis 7
    Aug 30 2023

    This week's episode is a recording of a message Jacob gave at his church a couple of Sunday's ago on Genesis 7.

    Genesis 7 is the account of the Flood and through that account there are amazing testimonies that point towards Christ's sacrifice and grace upon those who call upon His name and a look to the future judgement that is coming upon the world. Through this account we see Noah being an example to this generation as to how we are to be ready and watching for the day of Christ and proclaiming the gospel all the while!

    Key Scripture Genesis 7.

  • 58~Coming into Alignment: Being Conformed to Christ
    Aug 23 2023

    This week join Jacob as he talks about how a few chiropractic appointments to diagnose some spinal posturing issues have inspired looking to Jesus to become spiritually conformed and aligned with His image.

    We were created to be aligned with our heavenly Creator but sin bends us towards earthliness which puts our spiritual lives out of sync and out of alignment with our source of life, Jesus. This is a great episode to listen to if you need some encouragement and affirmation to press into how Jesus may want to gently step in and align your life to Himself.

    Key Scripture: Philippians 3:17-4:1

  • 57~Considering Job: Holding Fast
    Aug 16 2023

    This week join Jacob as he heads into Job 2 and talks about Job's testing 2.0. In chapter 2 we read about Job's continuing persecution from the "accuser" and Job's integrity to maintain his faith in God through immense suffering and pressure to curse the goodness of God.

    Through this state of brokenness in Job's life we see how God is profoundly able to bring glory to Himself through weak things putting to shame the things that are strong. It is an encouragement to think about how God used Job for His glory and how we should be prepared in our soul when we are given the gift to glorify God in our times of brokenness and weakness.

    Key Verses: Job 2, Psalm 12 & 13.

  • 56~Considering Job part 2: Blessed be the Name of the Lord
    Aug 9 2023

    This week join Jacob as he digs into the ending of chapter 1 in Job again and analyzes the reaction of Job to the tragedy that has taken place in his life. Imagine the privilege of being the man God holds in highest regard as well as Satan's sole focal point to prove his Maker wrong.

    Key Verse: Job 1:20-22

  • 55~Considering Job: Introduction to a Study in Job
    Aug 2 2023

    In the book of Job the Lord says to Satan, "Have you considered my servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, one who fears God and shuns evil?" (Job 1:8). Join Jacob this week as he "considers" the life and character of Job in an introduction to a study on the book of Job.

    The truth that the book of Job contains about Jesus is phenomenal and there is so much mystery and intrigue in the book that is sure to make for an exciting and enriching study! There are some incredible parallels in Job to the Christian life and the life of Christ in this most likely overlooked and under-read book of the Bible that are sure to bring greater depth and understanding to knowing our God intimately!

    Key Verse: Job 1:1

  • 54~His Mind: Armed with the Mind of Suffering
    Jul 26 2023

    In this episode Jacob delves into a topic that is, has, and will continue to capture his attention. This topic is suffering with the same perspective of suffering as Christ. In every place Jesus has paved the way for Christians to have His power over sin in their lives. In 1 Peter 4 a couple very interesting and exciting concepts stood out to Jacob that has helped create a new mindset around suffering.

    Join in on this episode to hear about the incredible Jesus we serve and how having His mind on suffering is one of the most potent weapons of our spiritual warfare equipment!

    Key Verse: 1 Peter 4:1-3

  • 53~Cheerful Courage: Entering the Throne Room of Grace
    Jul 19 2023

    This week join Jacob as he dives into the Christian mindset of entering "boldly" before the throne of grace! Prayer is our number one weapon in living the Christian life out on the battlefield. If the enemy can disorganize or discourage our lifeline of prayer (communication) to our High Priest it is much easier for him to wreak havoc in our spiritual lives.

    But have cheer and courage for this is the attitude we are to have when entering into prayer with Jesus! As Christians the writer of Hebrews tells us that there is a unique and powerful mindset we are to have when entering...BOLDNESS! Jacob discusses some of his thoughts and excitement of the truth found in Hebrews 4:16 that we have complete and total access to the Throne of God 24/7 and He wants to hear us speak to Him with "cheerful courage."

    Key Verse: Hebrews 4:16

  • 52~The Return: A Big Update, Spirit-Searching Thoughts, & A Fresh Burning For Jesus!
    Jul 12 2023

    The much awaited and long delayed episode 52 kicks off a new season for WVR! Join the restart with Jacob this week as he wades through the last 7 months since the last episode and all the life that has transpired. There have been several monumental life-changes in Jacob's life over the last several months which have challenged his spiritual walk and heat-treated his faith.

    Through it all Jesus has both tremendously blessed, convicted and challenged, rebuked and restored Jacob. In this episode, hear some of Jacob's heart on what the Lord has been leading Him through in the last 7 months and how he has had to grow spiritually to adapt to the new life he has been commissioned in by Jesus. Jacob dives into Psalm 32 to find an example of how God has been working in his life and how the theme applies to the Christian life.

    In all things God is faithful and Jesus has proven Himself to be the master-architect of impossible things!

    Key Scripture: Psalm 32

    Special thank-you to all the listeners and supporters of WVR who have been faithful to keep listening, encouraging, and waiting for War Vessel to be put in motion again! To Jesus be the Glory!

    Thanks for listening!
