In this message pastor Dwayne did a lot of demonstrations by pulling horseshoes, bullets (used and new) and an apple among other objects from his sling/sleeve. Enjoy. This is still part of the series "Presence and Time". PS The last few minutes of the recording can be skipped. Isaiah 9:6-7
6 For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. 7 Of the increase of his government and peace there will be no end. He will reign on David's throne and over his kingdom, establishing and upholding it with justice and righteousness from that time on and forever. The zeal of the LORD Almighty will accomplish this. NIV Galatians 5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. John 14:16 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Counselor to be with you forever-- NIV 2 Corinthians 2:14-15 14 But thanks be to God, who always leads us in triumphal procession in Christ and through us spreads everywhere the fragrance of the knowledge of him. 15 For we are to God the aroma of Christ among those who are being saved and those who are perishing. NIV Another opportunity to hear what God wants to do in your life. The worship was lead by a new team under Georgina, and we watched Matthew West - Do Something. The fellowship, participation and prayers can't be shared via the internet - you've got to be there to experience it! Pastor Dwayne continued with the series "Time and Presence". His message recording is below.   Luke 14:16-20 16 Jesus replied: "A certain man was preparing a great banquet and invited many guests. 17 At the time of the banquet he sent his servant to tell those who had been invited, 'Come, for everything is now ready.' 18 "But they all alike began to make excuses. The first said, 'I have just bought a field, and I must go and see it. Please excuse me.' 19 "Another said, 'I have just bought five yoke of oxen, and I'm on my way to try them out. Please excuse me.' 20 "Still another said, 'I just got married, so I can't come.' NIV
John 11:28 28 And after she had said this, she went back and called her sister Mary aside. "The Teacher is here," she said, "and is asking for you." NIV Matthew 28:19-20 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age." NIV Romans 12:1 1 Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God--this is your spiritual act of worship. NIV John 14:12 12 I tell you the truth, anyone who has faith in me will do what I have been doing. He will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father. NIV Acts 1:8 8 But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth." NIV 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 16 Be joyful always; 17 pray continually; 18 give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus. NIV We had an amazing powerful day with God speaking into many hearts. The junior worship team lead us into a lovely worship time.   It was so nice to see all the people back again! The men's worship team lead us today with the music. Pastor Dwayne challenged us to look from God's perspective to the potential for 2015. (The video clip we watched was of the 80 year old Janey Cutler singing at Britian's Got Talent 2010.) Various persons contributed at the end of the message. (You'll have to skip over a few inaudible parts in this recording.)   |
