Worship: Building a puzzle

1/17/2016

Debra lead the worship team this morning and we received quite a few encouraging messages during worship. Pastor Dwayne started with a series on Worship. He is building a puzzle picture - listen to see it! News is that the Coffee&Toast ministry is being replaced by a Soup Kitchen ministry for our community.

PRAISE and WORSHIP There are seven different words in Hebrew – all translated "praise"
1. towdah – Thanks giving choir
2. barak – to kneel as an act of adoration
3. tehillah – song of thanks giving
4. halal – give thanks by being clamorously foolish
5. yadah – to give thanks with outstreched hand
6. zamar – to give thanks with a musical instrument
7. shabach – to give thanks in a loud voice with a sense of triumph Exodus 33:7 Now Moses used to take a tent and pitch it outside the camp some distance away, calling it the "tent of meeting." Anyone inquiring of the LORD would go to the tent of meeting outside the camp. NIV
Exodus 29:42 "For the generations to come this burnt offering is to be made regularly at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting before the LORD. There I will meet you and speak to you; NIV

Exodus 33:11 The LORD would speak to Moses face to face, as a man speaks with his friend. Then Moses would return to the camp, but his young aide Joshua son of Nun did not leave the tent. NIV
1 Thessalonians 5:16-19 16 Be joyful always; 17 pray continually; 18 give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus. 19 Do not put out the Spirit's fire; NIV
Acts 2:25-28 25 David said about him: "'I saw the Lord always before me. Because he is at my right hand, I will not be shaken. 26 Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices; my body also will live in hope, 27 because you will not abandon me to the grave, nor will you let your Holy One see decay. 28 You have made known to me the paths of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence.' NIV

Steve and Terese lead us celebrating communion, and pastor Dwayne gave us some insight in living out the Great Commission in our daily lives. The worship was lead by the new "long term" worship team! The recording starts with Terese's testimony before communion. The sermon starts with a wild Caribbean story from pastor Dwayne at 13 minutes. Click here for the video clip we watched.

John 13:13-15 13 "You call me 'Teacher' and 'Lord,' and rightly so, for that is what I am. 14 Now that I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another's feet. 15 I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you. NIV
John 15:12-13 12 My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. 13 Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. NIV
Joshua 1:7-9 Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the law my servant Moses gave you; do not turn from it to the right or to the left, that you may be successful wherever you go. 8 Do not let this Book of the Law depart from your mouth; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful. 9 Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go."
Colossians 2:15 And having disarmed the powers and authorities, he made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them by the cross. NIV
Joshua 2:9 and said to them, "I know that the LORD has given this land to you and that a great fear of you has fallen on us, so that all who live in this country are melting in fear because of you.

On Sunday Pastor Dwayne gave us two ways to look at God's view of ourselves. We also had a time of prayer for the younger generation.
The recording above starts with some prophetic messages that were given during worship and the prayer time. Pastor Dwayne message starts at 16 minutes.

Daniel 6:25 Then King Darius wrote to all the nations and peoples of every language in all the earth: “May you prosper greatly!
26“I issue a decree that in every part of my kingdom people must fear and reverence the God of Daniel.
“For he is the living God and he endures forever;
his kingdom will not be destroyed, his dominion will never end.
27 He rescues and he saves;
he performs signs and wonders in the heavens and on the earth.
He has rescued Daniel from the power of the lions.”
John 5:17 Jesus said to them, "My Father is always at his work to this very day, and I, too, am working." NIV
Isaiah 63:4-5 4 For the day of vengeance was in my heart, and the year of my redemption has come. 5 I looked, but there was no one to help, I was appalled that no one gave support; so my own arm worked salvation for me, and my own wrath sustained me. NIV
Isaiah 61:1-2 1 The Spirit of the Sovereign LORD is on me, because the LORD has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners, 2 to proclaim the year of the LORD's favor and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn, NIV
John 5:19-20 19 Jesus gave them this answer: "I tell you the truth, the Son can do nothing by himself; he can do only what he sees his Father doing, because whatever the Father does the Son also does. 20 For the Father loves the Son and shows him all he does. Yes, to your amazement he will show him even greater things than these. NIV
1 John 3:1 How great is the love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him. NIV
1 Peter 1:23 For you have been born again, not of perishable seed, but of imperishable, through the living and enduring word of God. NIV
John 12:24 I tell you the truth, unless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains only a single seed. But if it dies, it produces many seeds. NIV
Acts 1:8 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
2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come! NIV
John 16:12-14 12 "I have much more to say to you, more than you can now bear. 13 But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come. 14 He will bring glory to me by taking from what is mine and making it known to you. NIV
