📖 VERSE OF THE WEEK 📖
Matthew 6:33 (KJV)
“But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.”

Jesus spoke these words during the Sermon on the Mount. The people were worried about food, clothing, and the needs of everyday life. Jesus reminded them that their heavenly Father already knew what they needed.

Instead of living with worry, Jesus told them to "seek God first."

This does not mean we ignore our responsibilities. It means that in every area of life, God comes first. Before our plans, our work, our finances, or our desires, we seek His will.

When we truly love the Lord:
- We put Him first in our daily decisions.
- We spend time with Him before we become busy with everything else.
- We trust Him to provide what we need.
- We desire His will more than our own.

It is easy to say that God is first in our lives. But our priorities reveal what we truly love.

As we follow our theme this year, “O Love the Lord,” let us seek Him first every day.

Because when God has first place in our hearts, everything else finds its proper place.

“O Love the Lord” — and seek Him first in everything. 🙏

Southside Baptist Church — 2nd Year Anniversary Recap 🎉

What a blessed day it was as we celebrated two years of God’s faithfulness to Southside Baptist Church!

In our morning service, we took time to look back at all that God has done these past two years. Where we are today is not the result of our own strength or planning, it is the result of what God has done. As we reflected on His faithfulness, we were reminded of Paul and Barnabas in Acts 14:27 — “And when they were come, and had gathered the church together, they rehearsed all that God had done with them, and how he had opened the door of faith unto the Gentiles.” Just as they gathered to declare God’s works, we gathered to give Him the glory for everything He has accomplished in and through this church. And looking back at His faithfulness gives us confidence to look ahead at what He can still do.

In the afternoon, the message, “Moving Ahead From Here,” challenged us not to settle into our past successes but to press forward and do even more for God. As Paul wrote in Philippians 3:13-14 — “Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.” Two years in, we’re not stopping or satisfied, we’re moving ahead!

We closed the day with sweet fellowship and food together, celebrating as one church family all that the Lord has done.

To God be the glory, great things He has done! 🙌

📖 VERSE OF THE WEEK 📖

Judges 5:31 (KJV)“…but let them that love him be as the sun when he goeth forth in his might.”

The book of Judges was a time of spiritual ups and downs for Israel. God would deliver His people, but they often drifted away from Him again. After God gave Israel victory over Sisera, Deborah and Barak ended their song with these words: “Let them that love him be as the sun when he goeth forth in his might.”

The picture is beautiful. Just as the sun rises each morning with strength and continues on its course, those who love the Lord should continue faithfully, no matter what season they are in.

There will be hard seasons in every Christian's life. We may face disappointment, sickness, opposition, or times when we simply grow tired. But our love for God should not depend on our circumstances.

When we truly love the Lord:

We remain faithful during difficult times.

We continue serving even when we are discouraged.

We trust God even when we cannot see what He is doing.

We keep moving forward because He is worthy of our love.

The Christian life is not about avoiding hard seasons. It is about remaining faithful through them. God uses those difficult days to strengthen our faith and deepen our love for Him.

As we follow our theme this year, “O Love the Lord,” let us continue loving and serving Him through every season of life.

Because a love that is genuine will continue to shine, even in the darkest days.

“O Love the Lord” — and remain faithful through every season. 🙏

📖 VERSE OF THE WEEK 📖

John 14:27 (KJV)
“Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.”*

Jesus spoke these words to His disciples just before He went to the cross. They were about to face some very difficult days. Jesus would be taken from them, and they would face fear, confusion, and uncertainty.

But Jesus told them, **“Let not your heart be troubled.”**

How could they have peace when so much trouble was coming? Because their peace was not found in their circumstances. Their peace was found in Christ.

Earlier in this chapter, Jesus said, **“If ye love me, keep my commandments.”** Later, He showed His own love for the Father through obedience. Love, trust, and obedience all go together.

When we love the Lord, we can trust Him even when we do not understand what He is doing.

We may not know what tomorrow will bring. We may face problems in our family, ministry, work, or other areas of life. But we do know who is in control.

The world looks for peace by trying to remove every problem. Jesus gives us peace even while we are going through the problem.

As we follow our theme this year, **“O Love the Lord,”** let us love Him enough to trust Him, obey Him, and rest in His promises.

We do not need to understand everything God is doing in order to trust Him.

**“O Love the Lord” — and rest in the peace that only Christ can give.** 🙏

📖 VERSE OF THE WEEK 📖

James 4:6 (KJV)“But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.”

James was writing to believers whose hearts had become divided. Instead of submitting to God, they were following their own desires, which led to conflict, envy, and pride. Before God called them to draw near to Him, He reminded them of this truth: "God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble."

Pride pushes God away because it says, "I can do this on my own."

Humility draws us closer to God because it says, "Lord, I need You."

When we truly love the Lord:

We depend on His strength instead of our own.

We gladly obey His Word.

We are willing to be corrected.

We give God the glory for every blessing.

The more we grow in our love for God, the less room there is for pride. We realize that everything we have and everything we are is because of His grace.

As we follow our theme this year, “O Love the Lord,” let us reject pride and choose humility every day.

Because a heart that truly loves God does not seek to exalt itself—it desires to exalt the Lord.

“O Love the Lord” — and walk humbly before Him. 🙏

📖VERSE OF THE WEEK📖

1 John 3:18 (KJV)
“My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth.”

The Apostle John was writing to believers and reminding them that real love is more than something we say. It is something we live.

Anyone can say, “I love God.” But genuine love for the Lord is seen in our actions.

God wants our love to be more than words. He wants it to be shown by the way we treat others, the way we serve, and the way we obey Him.

When we truly love the Lord:
1. We help others instead of only talking about love.
2. We forgive those who have hurt us.
3. We serve faithfully, even when no one notices.
4. We obey God’s Word because we want to please Him.

As we grow in our walk with Christ, our love should also grow. It should become more visible, more sincere, and more Christlike.

People may not always hear us talk about our love for God, but they should be able to see it in the way we live.

As we follow our theme this year, “O Love the Lord,” let us show our love not only with our lips, but with our lives.

Because mature love is demonstrated through faithful actions.

“O Love the Lord” — and let your love be seen in what you do. 🙏

📖 VERSE OF THE WEEK📖

Daniel 9:4 (KJV)
“And I prayed unto the LORD my God, and made my confession, and said, O Lord, the great and dreadful God, keeping the covenant and mercy to them that love him, and to them that keep his commandments.”

Daniel prayed this prayer while the nation of Israel was in captivity because of their sin. Instead of blaming God, Daniel confessed the sins of his people and remembered God’s unchanging character.

Before asking God for anything, Daniel focused on who God is.

He declared that God “keepeth the covenant and mercy to them that love him.”

This reminds us that God is always faithful. He never breaks His promises. His love, mercy, and faithfulness do not change, even when our circumstances do.

When we truly love the Lord:
1. We trust His promises, even when we cannot see the outcome.
2. We believe He is working, even when answers seem delayed.
3. We remain faithful because He is always faithful.

Life may bring disappointment, uncertainty, and hardship, but God’s character never changes. We can rest in the confidence that He always keeps His Word.

As we follow our theme this year, “O Love the Lord,” let us place our complete trust in the God who never fails.

Because a heart that loves God can confidently trust His faithfulness.

“O Love the Lord” — and trust the God who always keeps His promises. 🙏
