Being in Remembrance & Awaking Out of Sleep

Sunday, November 21, 2010
Led by Eric Gintert

Remembering the Land that the Lord has Brought You out of:
  • Psalm 90:12  -  As evidenced by the prayer requests (below) many people have cancers and illnesses where the doctors predict death. Therefore we need to ask the Lord to teach us to number our days that we might apply our hearts to wisdom. May we remember what the Lord has done for us and become better servants to Him because of his marvelous works.
    • *** Read James 4:14 ***
  • Psalm 23  -  Sometimes we have to endure "the valley of the shadow of death", or the remembrance of the old man, that we might be encouraged. Fearing no evil doesn't mean to not be afraid of the evil, but that we won't serve the evil when we are in that valley. Our enemies are those who don't serve God, even though they may be "good people".
  • Revelation 2:4-5  -  When you're in a slump and feeling low, go back to your First Love and the first works God did in you to remember who wonderful He is.
Awake and Be Ready for the Lord:
  • Romans 13:8-14  -  We need to love one another and awake out of sleep for our salvation is nearer than we think. We need to "put on the Lord Jesus Christ" by being in prayer with him and making no provision for the flesh to fulfill our lusts.
    • *** What is Love? See 2 John 6 ***
  • Daniel 12:1  -  Be ready because a time of trouble is coming that will be like nothing that ever was.
  • 2 Thessalonians 2:3  -  do not be deceived because there will be a falling away... which is already happening right now
  • 1 Timothy 4:1,3  -  some will, and already are, falling away from the faith; every 4 in 10 people believe marriage is not necessary, they are "forbidding to marry".
  • Matthew 24:11-12  -  the love of man has waxed cold
  • 2 Timothy 3:12-15  -  encouragement to continue in the things which you have learned
  • Daniel 11:28, 31  -  the daily sacrifice will be and has been taken away
    • *** What is the "daily sacrifice"? ***
Prayer Requests:

Dick  -  brain cancer; moved to nursing home with hospice care
Hollis  -  stage 4 lung cancer

Jesus Understands Our Infirmities

Sunday, March 27, 2011 Led by Dennis Jeffries Jesus has experienced everything we've ever been through, and more so. He understands our feelings and knows what it's like. Hebrews 2:16-18  -  Jesus took on flesh and blood and was made like his brethren; he brings hope and comfort to those suffering with temptation Philippians 2:5-6  -  Jesus didn't think it was robbery to be equal with God (he wasn't taking anything away from God because he was God) *** See John 10:24, John 1:1,14 *** John 5:18  -  the Jews wanted to kill Jesus because he proclaimed to be equal with God *** See John 15:18-19 *** Philippians 2:7  -  Jesus was in the likeness of man Isaiah 53:2-5  -  He knows how we feel in every situation we're in; he was a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief... therefore he understands our griefs and sorrows Galatians 4:4-5  -  Jesus was flesh (made of a woman) and was subjected to temptation just as we are, but he ...

Examples of Prayer from Those of Old

Sunday, August 7, 2011 Led by Eric Gintert We can learn a lot about prayer by reading what God's servants of old have prayed. "To pray is the greatest thing we can do: and to do it well there must be calmness, time, and deliberation; otherwise it is degraded into the littlest and meanest of things. True praying has the largest results for good; and poor praying, the least. We cannot do too much of real praying; we cannot do too little of the sham. We must learn anew the worth of prayer, enter anew the school of prayer. There is nothing which it takes more time to learn. And if we would learn the wondrous art, we must not give a fragment here and there -- "A little talk with Jesus," as the tiny saintlets sing -- but we must demand and hold with iron grasp the best hours of the day for God and prayer, or there will be no praying worth the name. This, however, is not a day of prayer. Few men there are who pray. Prayer is defamed by preacher and priest. In these days o...
