Hello friends. Herer are my sermon notes for today. Worship with us every Sunday. Worship begins at 11 A.M. “Worthy of Worship”

Introduction: Today we celebrate the first Sunday of Advent. The period of Advent is when Christians and Catholics begin preparations to celebrate Christmas and the birth of Jesus Christ. It’s a time of spiritual inventory (spiritual examination). The four candles represent the four weeks of Advent, and one candle is lit each Sunday. ... The first candle, which is purple, symbolizes hope. It is sometimes called the “Prophecy Candle” in remembrance of the prophets, especially Isaiah, who foretold the birth of Christ.
Responsive Reading: Psalm 99 ……………….. #819 - 820
Referring Scripture: Joshua 5:13 - 15
Main Scripture Reading: Exodus 3: 1 - 6

The Words of God for the People of God; Thanks be to God!
Message:
As Moses was tending his father -in -laws sheep in the desert, his attention was drawn to a strange sight. A bush was burning without being consumed. When Moses turned to examine more closely, God said to him, “Take your sandals off your feet, for the place where you stand is holy ground.” – Exodus 3:5
Joshua had a similar experience when he approached the captain of the host of the Lord. As Joshua drew nearer, he was given this command: “Take off your sandals, for the place you are standing is Holy ground.” - Joshua 5:15

The experiences of both Moses and Joshua teach us that a Holy God demands our reverence and respect. True, In the book of Hebrews we are encouraged to “approach the throne of grace with confidence, so we may receive mercy and find grace to help us time of need.” – Hebrews 4:16
Beloved, we can enter the presence of God with confidence because Jesus has opened the way for us through his death and resurrection. But never are we to approach God with disrespect. Never are we to profane his name.
Listen! Our Heavenly Father is not “the man upstairs.” He is God, the One who is lifted up. And because of His majesty and holiness, we are to exalt and worship Him. As the One True God, He is worthy of our adoration, Let’s give Him our highest praise.
Closing Prayer:
Dear Holy Father, we praise your name. You alone are worth Lord, to be worshiped and adored. In Your Holy Name we pray, Amen.
