Four Ways to “Number Our Days” in 2026 – From Psalms 90:12

 


“So teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.” (Psalm 90:12)

Takeaways from this text:

1. Recognizing life’s limits. There is a “gift” in limitation because it helps you focus on the things you should focus on.

2. Live with awareness. Don’t take time, opportunity, or people for granted.

3. Time as stewardship. Because time is a non-renewable resource, you must use time wisely.

4.  “Number our days” is not about quantity of our days, but the quality of our days.

Joy is Delight – Bent for God




LISTEN TO PODCAST


Psalm 37:3, Trust in the Lord, and do good; Dwell in the land, and feed on His faithfulness. 4 Delight yourself also in the Lord, And He shall give you the desires of your heart. 5 Commit your way to the Lord, Trust also in Him, And He shall bring it to pass.

Dr. Bryan Hudson teaches that biblical joy is not dependent on circumstances but is a deep, settled gladness rooted in God’s presence, promises, and purposes. Joy is defined as delight—being “bent” toward God in devotion, obedience, and purpose—rather than temporary happiness that comes and goes.

Drawing from Luke 2, Psalm 37, Nehemiah, and Habakkuk, the message explains that true joy develops as believers delight themselves in the Lord, abide in Him daily, and remain committed to His will even in difficulty. Using Nehemiah’s example, Dr. Hudson shows that joy is strengthened when people refuse to become comfortable in complacency, stay aligned with God’s mission, and serve others faithfully. Ultimately, “the joy of the Lord is your strength” because a life bent toward God produces enduring resilience, purpose, and spiritual power.

Good Tidings of Great Joy – Bryan Hudson, D.Min;




LISTEN TO PODCAST


In Good Tidings of Great Joy, Pastor Bryan Hudson teaches that joy is central to God’s redemptive plan and flows from living in God’s presence. Drawing from Psalm 16:11 and Luke 2, he explains that joy is not the same as happiness—happiness is momentary, but joy is constant, like the air we breathe when we remain in God’s presence.

The angelic announcement of Jesus’ birth reveals that the gospel itself is “good tidings of great joy” meant for all people. Jesus came to create the conditions for humanity to experience God’s presence, receive new life, and live in sustained joy. Pastor Hudson emphasizes that rejoicing is the outward expression of inward joy, and believers are called not only to experience joy themselves but to share it with others through acts of love, service, and outreach—helping people encounter the lasting joy found only in Christ.
