Living in Fervent Expectation

Back to Basics

June 24, 2025

So much of our anxiety, fear, and exhaustion comes from drifting away from the one thing that matters most: being with Jesus.

In this foundational message by David Ravella, we’re reminded to return to the basics—resting in God’s love, abiding in His presence, and remembering that He is our exceeding great reward.
From Genesis to Philippians, we see that we were created to walk with God in the garden, not strive, not stress, but simply abide.

In this message, you’ll be reminded to:

Master the basics like Mary at Jesus’ feet

Anchor your soul in God’s love

Abide in His joy and peace daily

Let love cast out fear and reset your foundation

This is not about the next big revelation—it’s about returning to your first love.

Genesis 15, Matthew 6:31, Ephesians 3, Philippians 4:6–8, Psalm 16:11, Hebrews 6:19
