A study from the book of 1 John
As we prepare for worship tomorrow here is the current worship set.
Each Sunday on top of our order of worship is this statement:
We make our plans, but
God has the last word...
We will begin with a countdown followed by a welcome clip. Then the music begins and we will fill the Worship Center with songs of worship and praise:
We will extend a warm welcome to everyone present and commit this time to the Lord in prayer.
Now we express our Lord for the Lord in song:
We will bring our prayers of intercession and petitions with gratitude and thanksgiving. We will pause to consider the importance of our faithfulness in giving to the Lord. God is not interested in our money. He is interested in US. God cares for us so much that He provides for us and meets our needs. We need to be found faithful as stewards of what God has entrusted to us. I am praying for a miracle tomorrow at NRN. We need an large offering to meet our financial needs for the coming week. I am praying very specifically and look forward to expressing my praise for answered prayer and the faithfulness of God's people.
Here is a preview of the message for tomorrow:
Love, obedience, honesty, and intimacy are
tied together. A love relationship between two persons obliges each one
to another to obey relationship boundaries and obey moral boundaries on
self. When the boundaries are observed, intimacy grows. Honesty is
one of those obligations. GOD acted on HIS obligations to us through HIS
incarnation, death, and resurrection. Suffering is an obligation of
love. If you want your intimacy with GOD to grow, pursue obedience to HIM
earnestly and honestly.
This is the message we have heard from him and declare to you: God is
light; in him there is no darkness at all. 1 John 1:5
In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind.The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it. John 1:4-5
