Every week we gather to magnify Christ in word & deed, mature as Christ-followers, and multiply and make disciples for Christ.

SONG LYRIC - To God Be the Glory

To God be the glory great things He has done
So loved He the world that He gave us His Son
Who yielded His life an atonement for sin
And opened the life gate that all may go in

Praise the Lord praise the Lord
Let the earth hear His voice
Praise the Lord praise the Lord
Let the people rejoice
O come to the Father through Jesus the Son
And give Him the glory great things He has done

O perfect redemption the purchase of blood
To every believer the promise of God
The vilest offender who truly believes
That moment from Jesus a pardon receives

Great things He has taught us
Great things He has done
And great our rejoicing through Jesus the Son
But purer and higher and greater will be
Our wonder our transport when Jesus we see

SONG LYRIC - You Are My Vision

You are my vision O King of my heart
Nothing else satisfies only You Lord
You are my best thought by day or by night
Waking or sleeping Your presence my light

You are my wisdom You are my true word
I ever with You and You with me Lord
You're my great Father and I'm Your true son
You dwell inside me together we're one

You are my battle-shield sword for the fight
You are my dignity You're my delight
You're my soul's shelter and You're my high tower
Come raise me heavenward O Power of my power

I don't want riches or man's empty praise
You're my inheritance now and always
You and You only the first in my heart
High King of heaven my treasure You are

High King of heaven when victory's won
May I reach heaven's joy O bright heaven's Son
Heart of my own heart whatever befall
Still be my vision O Ruler of all

The Prayer Reinforces Our Identity as Disciples.
Who are we as disciples?
- 'Our Father' - Children
- 'Hallowed Be' - Worshipers
- 'Your Kingdom' - Servants
- 'Daily Bread' - Beggars
- 'Forgive' - Sinners
- 'Lead us' - Disciples & Warriors
- 'Deliver' - Sheep
The Prayer Reinvigorates Our Worship.
J I Packer, 'Prayer and praise are like a bird's two wings: with both working, you soar; with one out of action, you are earthbound.'
The Prayer Redefines what the world values.
In every human heart exists a throne & a cross.
We have a problem. We want the power to control our lives and families. Yet, the power belongs to God alone.
The Prayer Reframes Our Connections with Neighbors.
It’s hard to pray the ‘ours’ & the ‘us’s’ and not begin to at least consider others near us.
How do you renew your connections with brothers and sisters?
The Prayer Redirects Us Back on Mission.
What's Next?
What could be the most important word?

SONG LYRIC - Have Thine Own Way

Have Thine own way Lord have Thine own way
Thou art the Potter I am the clay
Mold me and make me after Thy will
While I am waiting yielded and still

Have Thine own way Lord have Thine own way
Search me and try me Master today
Whiter than snow Lord wash me just now
As in Thy presence humbly I bow

Have Thine own way Lord have Thine own way
Wounded and weary help me I pray
Power all power surely is Thine
Touch me and heal me Savior divine

Have Thine own way Lord have Thine own way
Hold o'er my being absolute sway
Fill with Thy Spirit till all shall see
Christ only always living in me

Your Next Steps / /

Verse to Remember : 1 Chronicles 29.11, 'Yours, O LORD, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the victory and the majesty, for all that is in the heavens and in the earth is yours. Yours is the kingdom, O LORD, and you are exalted as head above all.'

Point to Ponder : Theology becomes doxology.

Question to Consider : Is the Lord's Prayer really in your heart?
