WEEKLY WORSHIP GUIDE

There is a truth given to us by Jesus that we need to believe.  It’s actually to our advantage that Christ would go to the Father SO that the Spirit could be sent to us.  The hope in this series would be that we would come to believe this as ardently as Jesus, Himself AND that we would long to know and enjoy all that we have in the Person and work of the Holy Spirit of God.

Father, easter sunrise means something very special to our church family. It reminds us that according to scripture, early on a Sunday morning, 2000 yrs ago, you brought Jesus back to life after his brutal death on the cross that Friday at 3:00pm…You brought his lifeless body back to life as he lay dead in a garden tomb closed up by a huge round stone that was rolled to cover the tomb’s entrance. Grieving family and friends watched his crucifixion on the tree,  listening to his gasp for breath and saying “Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.” And next hearing Jesus say, “It is finished…” and breathed his last. Death had won so thought many who had forgotten Christ’s message about what was going to happen on the third day after his crucifixion. That Sunday morning the tomb was openned and the body was gone. Had it been stolen? No…The living Christ walked out of the tomb and showed himself alive on ten different occasions in the next 40 days, finally ascending to heaven to be seated at the right hand of the Father as king of kings in the kingdom of God. Father the song writer was right…Easter reminds us that we serve a risen Savior both now and forever. Who beat sin and death for us who were chosen to believe…Praise your Name Lord…in Jesus name amen.
