Saturday, June 13, we gathered to praise God, pray, and join our hearts in worship.
Mark opened the service by reminding us all of the importance of forgiveness—and that sometimes the hardest person to forgive is yourself.
We shared praises and prayer requests—with great thanksgiving for cancers removed and healed, chaplain training completed (Pastor Joel in Puerto Rico) and prayers for job opportunities and for peace talks in Iran.
Jake taught the kids about Jesus paying our way to heaven.
Brother Chuck and Jessica led us in glorious praise to our Father
Speaking from Joshua 6: 1-8, Chuck reminded us to take hold of the promises of God — to follow His instructions, and fight the battle. Glorifying God is part of doing battle with the enemy. God is faithful. We walk in faith and believe the promises.
We trust God’s instructions, even if they seem strange. He instructed the Israelites to march around Jericho – a strange way to take a city. The trumpet blown by the priests was the “Shofar of Jubilee.”
Jubilee: when the land is returned to its true owners, slaves are freed and debts cancelled. God’s promise is for you.
Walk as people of the promise. Share His promise of freedom with your community–they need to know!
