Opening Hymn; The Prayer by David Foster;
I pray you’ll be our eyes, and watch us where we go And help us to be wise in times when we don’t knowLet this be our prayer, when we lose our way Lead us to the place, guide us with your grace To a place where we’ll be safe
I pray we ‘Il find your light, and hold it in our heartsWhen stars go out each night,Remind us where you areLet this be our prayer, when shadows fill our dayHelp us find a place, guide us with your grace Give us faith so we’ll be safe
A world where pain and sorrow will be endedAnd every heart that’s broken will he mendedAnd we’ll remember we are all God’s children Reaching out to touch youReaching to the sky
We ask that life be kind, and watch us from aboveWe hope each soul will find another soul to loveLet this be our prayer, just like every child
Who needs to find a place, guide us with your graceGive us faith so we’ll be safe.
Opening prayer; Heavenly Father we pray that the words on this page are pleasing to your sight. We pray also that your adult children understand this word today. We pray this in the name of Jesus. Amen.
Sermon Sunday April 25, 2021
Many believers in Jesus are called to go out into the world and spread the word of God. James taught how important it is during trials and tribulations to remain faithful. What is also taught is that any faith without acting is faith that is dead. Remember not to show favoritism and avoid the dangers of being in sin. Many teachers of the word are encouraged strongly to keep in control and maturity so they can control thier tongues. Life can also be full of uncertainty. It is better to not have a war, or fight, and even lust over things. In order to get things you want that are within the will of God it is important not to lust or fight about it. When you pray in faith according to what James taught, always pray for the sick, because others need prayers as well. The prayer to confess a sin is also important so that they can be forgiven for someone that they wronged. In Matthew chapter 6 the rules of prayer and fasting are discussed. Always remember 7 important rules when you go and pray to your Heavenly Father.
Go into your room.
Shut the door.
Pray to your Father in secret.
Do not heap up empty phrases.
Follow the standard model
Forgive men their trespasses.
Believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.
We encourage you to get into the bible with the book of James. That is what was studies this past week.
Closing Hymn; The book of James by Amazon music
On a park bench sat a crimson beating heart
And behind him the girls played double dutch in the park
The sun began to burn his snow white skin
I guess you’re headin’ somewhere or endin’ up somewhere..
Storm clouds began to form in his head
And crisscrossed his mind like a restless angry ocean
And the howling of hardship and heartache
Kneeled and grinned in his face
He stood there in his shoes unable to move
I drove all night here to tell you I love you
And here lies my green eyes
Rolled back in my head, but they’re alive
And all these words can all get spoken
Well I know we tried and you’re forgiven
You’re forgiven
He made his way down the boulevard
Near the 99 cent stores and the garbage in the yards
And he began to sing
About the crickets and the backroads where we used to play
I guess you’re either headin’ somewhere or endin’ up somewhere
Cause I tried the bible, I tried the bottle,
I Tried the needle, I tried to love people
And in the end there ain’t nothin’ to say
And in the end there ain’t nothin’ you can say anyway
And I stand here in my shoes, unable to move
My hat in my hands, at the bottom of the ocean.
And here lies my green eyes
Rolled back in my head but they’re alive
And all the words can all get spoken
Well I know we tried and you’re forgiven
Closing prayer; Heavenly Father, at times it does appear that the ungodly are prospering in all they do.. but we praise and thank You that You have promised that those who love You will never be put to shame. Thank You that You are faithful, trustworthy, gracious and of great goodness. Help us to hold fast to the truth of Your Word and to look for the any day appearing of our great God and Saviour Jesus Christ.. Who will one day put all wrongs to right and the earth will be filled with the glory of God as the waters cover the sea. In Jesus name we pray, AMEN.
Benediction; Go in peace and have a very joyful, peaceful and blessed week.
For those who wish to become a child of our heavenly Lord, or strengthen thier faith, please pray the following prayer below.
Dear Heavenly Father, I want to be a part of your family. You said in Your Word that if I acknowledge that You raised Jesus from the dead, and that I accept Him as my Lord and Savior, I would be saved.

By saying this prayer, we believe you are born again.
