As we celebrate 41st year of God’s faithfulness in our church, these truths are strong anchor that we can hold onto.
First, He promises His PRESENCE.
What an encouragement to know that because of our relationship with Him, we do not need to fear anything. Our confidence is in what God promises to do for us.
Second, He promises His PROTECTION.
We have no reason to fear because
He is the “Great I Am."
Every other being in the universe needs sustaining. He alone is self-existent,
complete in Himself.
He is our God.
He is sovereign.
He is present.
He will take care of us.
The third thing we are reminded of is
His promised PROVISION.
God says: “I am the Lord Your God. And I say to you, do not be afraid, I am here to help you.”
When we think that God is absent, or doubt whether or not He will assist us, we need to stand firm on the foundation that God is with us, so we will not be overwhelmed by any assaults or tempests that trouble us.
So as we move forward,
There are spiritual things that we need to carry:
- His Word
- A prayerful heart
- A forgiving spirit
And our attitudes for the Journey is to;
-Forget the Past
Leave behind old failures and burdens instead of letting them hold us back.
- Have a Teachable Mind
Stay open to growing, changing, and being transformed by truth.
- Be an Active Community
Stay connected in a discipleship group for encouragement, accountability, and shared worship.
As Pastor Val said ,
It is only by God’s grace that has brought us through every season.
In moving forward, we will not take a single step without His leading.
And we will continue to depend on His divine presence as our greatest treasure and our roadmap ahead.
Sail on! Sail on! dear brothers and sisters!
Sail on!
Happy 41st anniversary!!
