Good afternoon, Saints!

Let us give glory to God for all He has done! As the pastor of this great church, my top priorities are to provide for and protect our flock of God. As everyone knows, we are facing some very cold weather in the coming days, with temperatures consistently dropping below freezing.

Given these circumstances, we have made the difficult decision to cancel our first Sunday worship service tomorrow for safety reasons. We want to ensure that no one is on the road, as there may be hazardous icy conditions during travel, especially for those of us who drive long distances.

We are also taking steps to address our heating situation. The heating units in the church are currently running at only 50%, and we are exploring other options to ensure that our congregation stays warm.

We will resume worship on the second Sunday. Please prepare for The Lord’s Supper on that day. Ladies, wear white, and brothers, wear black suit with a white shirt and a red tie.

Please spread the word to ensure that no one is exposed to the inclement weather.

May the God of all comfort keep you safe and warm during these challenging times. Please also pray for the homeless individuals who are struggling during this harsh season.

In His service,

~Rev~

God is Awesome! In fact He’s Great and greatly to be praised!
Today’s message was the first in our series on Matthew 6:33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness and all these things shall be added unto you.
“First things First”
Thought: God is a God of Order to be a blessing to us.
Question/Focus: What should be our first priority? To seek….
What does it mean to seek? By definition, seeking is to go after intently. To pursue in a strong manner or desire for something. In the Greek and in this particular scripture, Seeking, is continual. It is an imperfect imperative meaning that it’s a must have (desire) and that desire is sought after diligently. As Christians, we must seek after God continually and not allow for our desire to be a conditional thing….only when we need Him because truth be told we need God every moment of our lives.
Seeking is a part of the order of God because God is order. It’s His character. It’s His divine nature to be in order. There are more than 48 scripture that sites the fact that God is a God of order. 1) In the beginning (Gen 1:1) That’s order!
2) The order of creation (Gen 1:4) That’s order!
3) Thou shall have no other Gods before Me (Ex 20) That’s order!
Oder denotes doing things right and completely. That’s the only way that Hod does things or anything! He never leaves things half done so, we too being born in His image and likeness and being His children should desire to do everything in order! Right and Completely.

2) Seeking God ought to be done Energetically
Our desire to get closer to God and to do things the right way for Him ought to be done with energy! God don’t need us as Christians being lethargic. He needs us to be enthusiastic about doing His work and we ought to do it enthusiastically, not grudgingly.

3) Seeking God means that “We Live”
Seeking God brings life not necessarily like. Seeking Hod means that we are actively living each day according to His will. His will for our lives is that we have life and live it more abundantly! That ought to energize us as Saints of God!
His will for us always leads to life but if we disobey His will, we are in fact killing ourselves.

First Things First

The first thing He commands is to “Seek”
Do it in Order
Do it Energetically
Do it to Live
