And thank you, you can find us on Buzzsprout, Spotify, I Heart Radio, you can find us on Amazon music and so many other platforms, Apple Music, and Spotify and Buzzsprout, as I've said earlier, but good morning. Let's dive straight in to the scripture this morning. And we're going into Philippians chapter four, verse 19. And it is a simple stretch, and is a simple scripture this morning. And this is how God works. And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus, whatever your needs are, whatever your worries are, you know, there is such a difference between needs and wants. And the reason I mentioned in this this morning, is because of the fuel crisis, because of the the gas, the electric, the utility bills, the the fuel in the vehicles, you know, everybody is stretched beyond almost human understanding, and it's causing quite a lot of stress and a reaction to people's lives. And I just want to encourage you and my brothers this morning that God will supply God will always make away he makes away even when we go to the wire of life when we're almost at the edge and we think I just can't see a way forward. You know, it's about faith, My God shall supply all your needs according to His riches of glory in Christ Jesus. God is a way maker God will supply God will make a way where it seems very bleak and very awkward. Sometimes God will just show up. He's already there. He's already in the midst. He's already in that place where we can't see God is with you. So wherever you are this morning if you're worried about the fuel issues if you're worried about your life if you're worried about children, marriage, if you're married, unmarried, whatever your situations are, God will make away with there seems to be no way God. God is a winemaker. He is the King of kings, and the Lord of Lord my God shall supply all my needs according to Thy riches in glory, He will supply he will make away even when it's hard when it's treacherous. When we find that doesn't seem to be a way forward, God will make a way there is always a way forward with the power of God. His word is yes and amen. He will never let us down. You know, even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil because you are with me, your rod and your staff. They comfort me God is with us, even in the most bleakest times that we might experience in our lives. He's with you this morning, and God loves you and He will Mike away. So wherever you are today, the first part of the Scripture is Philippians chapter four, verse 19. And my God will meet all your needs, according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus, everything is done and everything is completed through Christ Jesus. So where does that take us? And where does that bring us? It brings us to the cross of Calvary, it brings us to the cross, you know, the cross is everything the cross is redemption, the cross is salvation, the cross is hope. The cross is future, the cross is everything. When you look at the cross, you know, that from Genesis from the very beginning of Genesis all the way through the Old Testament, right up to the cross, it was about the cross, and then from the cross all the way to the end of the book of Revelation. It is about the cross, it is about the cross, everything happened at the cross. That's what Christian and Christianity sorry, is about. It's about redemption, it's salvation. It's following God, everything is at the cross at Calvary. So if you have any issues this morning, if you are worried if you are fearful, just look at the cross of Calvary, because that is where the King of kings and the Lord of lords took everything to the cross. Everything comes from the cross, everything goes to the cross, it is about the cross. And then it's not about the structure of the cross. It's not about the timbre of the cross, it is about what happened. And what the cross represents that it's a symbol. It's what it represents. We don't worship the cross of Calvary, we don't lift up the see the cross on the wall, just behind Donnie over there with the robe. We don't worship the cross, we don't worship the fabric of that. But when we look at that, we understand that when we look at that, the King of kings and the Lord of lords went to the cross of Calvary. So that that's what it's about, you know, Christ went to the cross of Calvary. For each and every one of us. That is what it's about. It's the cross of Calvary is the cross of Calvary, what Christ done at the cross, may God bless you and strengthen you, as we are in this morning. And it's about the power of the Holy Spirit. It's about the King of kings, the Lord of lords, he is worthy of all praise. And wherever you are today, I just pray that you will just stretch into Christ that you will just look at Christ. And you will just press into him. He's the king of kings, and he is the Lord of lords. He's worthy of all praise. And I just just just stretched out to Jesus today to stretch out to Christ. He's worthy of all praise. You know, he's the king of glory. And we're in and we just worship Him and we just lift him up right now. So wherever you are today, never give up. Never give up hope. Never give up hope. You know, he's the king of glory. He's worthy of all praise, as we're in this morning. We are in this morning, and we are just going a little bit further. And we will just press in this morning. But God is with you. God is not against you. God is for you. So let's just let's just keep going. Let's just keep going. Let's just keep going as we're in, in this morning, as we just press in, He's worthy of all praise. God is God is with you. God is with you this morning. Wherever you are today. God is with you. He is the King of glory. He's with you. So wherever you are today, as we just wrapped in his presence, never give up. Never give up this morning. God is for you. He is not against you. But let's just be resting in his presence and just trust in Him as we just push a little bit further this morning, into the power of prayer. So wherever you are today, never give up. Never give up. There is always hope in Christ Jesus. So let's just carry on and just pressing. He's worthy of all praise. Thank you, Holy Spirit and Lord You shall supply all our needs according to their riches and glory. And this morning, Lord, Father, just make your way where there seems to be no way Lord, Father, just make your way this morning, Lord. You are the King of kings and the Lord of lords and you are a good and a powerful God. And we thank you for what you're doing today, Lord, but this our Lord, we just come before You Lord and we just lift up our hands. We just praise you for what you've done for what you're gonna do, and the way that you're moving in our lives. Lord, Father, we thank you for the great things that you've done today alone. You're the King of kings and the Lord of lords. Come Holy Spirit. Thank you, Jesus. Thank You, Holy Spirit. Father, just microwave, microwave, Lord, You are the King of glory. We worship You, Lord, we thank you you are worthy of all praise today. The Lord. It's the cross, everyone. It's about the cross. It's about the cross and those that just lost sound. You've got it back. I see that you got it back. God is good. Let's just continue to press him for coffee and prayer this morning. As we just press in, you know hand everything over to the Savior this morning. And everything over to God hand everything over to the King of kings and the Lord of lords. He's with you. He's for you and not against you. So whatever is going on in your life, just hand it over to Jesus. You hand it all over to the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit, He will strengthen you, He will guide you, He will uplift you. Philippians chapter four, verse 19, and my God will meet, and my God will meet all all your needs every need, God will meet all the needs, according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus.
Andy Hammond:Can I just say yes, my friend. And it's interesting that you quoted there from Philippians. And obviously Philippians is credited to the Apostle Paul. Yes. And I think it's generally assumed that his letters written from Rome. And there he is in prison, in prison writing this letter, and you've quoted that first, so he will meet all your needs. And it's ironic that he writes it in from prison, a dark place. And I've also got open Philippians chapter three, and it's in my my Bible, I've got all lots of red all over this page. Yes, sir. Yeah, I consider everything a loss compared to the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ Jesus modeled here, for whose sake I've lost all things. That's the attitude of Paul. And a very intelligent man,
Reverend Ben Cooper:very intelligent man, had had
Andy Hammond:an amazing encounter with Jesus on the road, knocked him off his donkey, straight off, straight off, blinded him, and was an encounter. Now, we don't all have encounters like that with Jesus. But certainly we do have encounters. And you probably be one. know it when you do have an encounter with Jesus. My prayer this morning is that whoever's listening will have encounters with Jesus. I pray, Father, God, that you will reach out to all those who are listening today, who will listen later. Yes, Lord, during the times that they will come before you. And perhaps have the attitude of Paul the Apostle. Yes, for who? Such a clever individual wrote many letters in our Bible now that we have. And he considered. So powerfully, you're, you're reaching out to him. And there he is sitting in prison. But he, he's, he knows that you are with him. And you don't let him go. And I feel in my own spirit today that there are lots of people who need something to hold on to, yeah, they need something to hold on to, because they're feeling fragile. They are concerned about their life situation. I'm sure Paul must have considered his own life situation there as right yeah, probably two years I think he spent in prison in a row. And this was all heading up for his own execution. But thanks, sir, Father, God, he knew that he had a Savior. And it was Christ Jesus. So Moon Lord. So Father, God, we thank you, as we sit around this table, that we know who our savior is. But there are many people in our communities who don't know who Jesus is. Some have never even heard of him. But Father God, we ask them by your Spirit, you will reach out. Touch. Yes, people. bring hope and restoration. Amen. Follow Jesus. When people sleep, that you will give them dreams. We pray that especially for overseas, countries that have other religions, fathers that they will have dreams, and they will know that Christ Jesus is the son of God that they will have decisions to make in their own lives. And Father, we know that you challenge. You challenge each one of us. Yes, Lord. But it's amazing that on the other side that you give us free will to do what we will. Amen. But you stand and wait. You don't push us into anything on that you encourage us. Just like a father with the last son. Yeah, you stand and wait. In fact, you look every morning to see where we are. What we're doing, is how we coming home. And Father, when that sound did come home, you ran to greet him. You put your arms around him, you put the best robe on him, and you gave a feast for him.
Reverend Ben Cooper:Thank you, Jesus.
Andy Hammond:Thank you, father. That's just an illustration of what happens in heaven. When someone comes home, to know you. So we thank You, Father God, that we can be in relationship with you. It's not all by our own. efference. Thank you, through your Son Jesus. perfected for us on the cross. Yes, father, Thanks, Curtis give you sex. Just give you thanks this morning. And father all for all those who are struggling. And I know there are some who just want to give up this morning. Just can't take it farther, we ask that you come and meet with them. Sit by their side, put your arms around them, just like the father and the son that you will put your arms around them. Give them encouragement Jesus. Make a celebration for them. Give them joy, we pray this morning, bring joy and hope into people's lives. The small Yeah, yeah. Thank you for your precious Name. Amen. Lord, thank you for
Donny Stockburn:talking to Paul, that great man of God. He may have written those words down, but it was God who was the author of them. And I just want to take you back. We was talking about the other week about the love of God. And in one Corinthians 13. Paul wrote those words down. A God was the author, they're God's words. It says a loving one that one Corinthians 13 Love is patient. Love is kind. Love rejoices in the truth. Love is kind love endures all things, keeps no records of wrongs are just want to add to now, not by Paul, but by someone like Paul Jeremiah, who was a prophet and and he was thrown in jail and found out olds and all sorts of things and for the sake for the sake of God for us now live in now. And I wouldn't take you to lemon tations says Jeremiah wrote this and but God was the author again. In in there, it tells us something further about love some that are personally needed in my life. And I believe you all do too. So it's it's some, it's Agera lamentations three, verse 2223. And it says in this New King James, it says, Through the Lord's mercies we are not consumed. Because his compassions fowl not that's that's something I need that it says in other Bibles. It says the steadfast Lord, a love of the Lord never ceases. Same thing. And this says in here that God's love is steadfast. He says it never ceases. It says that it never comes to an end. And also glad it reminds us of this truth also, that is immovable. It is an and type terrible. It's firmly fixed. It endures all things. And Lord, you said that so many times I think it's 147 times in Psalms alone, that your love is steadfast. And the Lord, get the message. You mean us to know that your love is steadfast? It never moves. It never goes flat remains unshaken. And we need that so much Lord. It's so easy with your love. But so impossible to live this life you called us to win. And a lot of my mind went back as I was going over this the other day to hit Christmas night. When that love that you You put into us now that this love you're speaking on now, the steadfast love it will never move came down from heaven. It came out of heaven. No, thank you Holy Spirit, and its destination was our hearts, human hearts, its destination was there this amazing, steadfast love was bound for us through Jesus Lord reaches thank you for now this wonderful, steadfast love, Lord, this love that will never give up this love will never move. Don't matter what mistakes we make, and I've made a few Lord it will not be moved, it will remain sine. So far colleges prime now for all those that are going through some stuff out and he said and can't find a way through it Lord we pray that this amazing love, this love that does not give up this immovable love, this love that stays a distance. Lord, we asked it Father God, to be poured out in every child of God on His earth on a God every BORN AGAIN soul every spirit Father God, we pray you will be filled with it to overflowing. We pray, Lord that you will lift us up and send us out Father God to carry this message of this fantastic amazing love loves Lord, Father God that you will pour it out over his own Earth in these last days. One of the greatest signs to us the these are the last days is God's faithfulness the faithful love he's talked about your now that he has bought Israel back to Israel after all those years. He's kept his promise. He's got a faithful, testable love Laudon which is fuzzy for it law but we asked you, Lord, to come now. A fill our hearts for Lord fill our hearts with that love, Lord, that can makes it also easy. Lord makes it without it so impossible. To live this life you call us to Lord and Jeremiah that love. Paul was overflowing with that love, Father God and we pray that in the same way you did it to them. Do it to us to everyone, Lord, in this world, in everyone in your kingdom Father God we asked this outpouring this filling up, Lord, this overflowing love to come in on us now, Lord, lift us up, Father, God bless us. And on all those maybe, maybe you're facing the worst things you've ever faced in your life. Perhaps you've been diagnosed with something perhaps a loved one has been packed with troubles a mountain lion, Lord, but this love will never leave you this love of God, this steadfast love that word means steadfast. And indeed, Lord, the unending love of God that will cover all our mistakes, cover all our troubles will not be moved from us Lord will take care of us for all those issues. Northern arches pride as per now in Jesus name. Amen. Thank you
Andy Hammond:have the word transformation principle, then. Thank you, Jason. And I think you can I don't think I know God is in the business of transformation. And I was just looking at Ezekiel 47, where it describes the river flowing from the temple, that fresh water that comes out of the temple. Thank you James talks about transforming the Dead Sea into life. Fish will be seen and we'll be living in in the Dead Sea. Now, I don't know whether anyone has been to the Dead Sea. Its name is truly correct, because it is a Dead Sea. Man, it's so full of salt that you can't swimming in it. You just float in it and I've been in the Dead Sea. And you just in fact, you can't put your feet down. You just come around. And you have to be careful that you don't turn over on your face. Otherwise, you might take in some amount full of salt. Now when you think in terms of how that see, there's no life in it at all. Nothing can live in it. But Scripture tells us that there's going to be life. And when you look at Ezekiel 47 Life comes back to the Dead Sea. There will be trees and plants growing on the banks. That's the transformation principle. And in some ways I feel That's what Jesus does for us in our own lives. He transforms us from who we are to what He wants us to be. He wants us to be in relationship with him. He calls us sons and daughters of God. How marvelous that is. And I just pray this morning, Lord, transform us. Yeah, make us more like you. And we all struggle about this. We try to live our lives in a way that you would approve, but we fail quite often. In fact, we fail every day to live up. Yeah, but you just like a father. With a child, how often those of us who've got children, we just love our children. We just love to care for them. And as they grow up, we stand back and admire them for what they've achieved. And that's how Jesus looks at us. He stares back at the Moses. And he says, Well done. Well done. And there's a few people this morning, who liked to hear those words. Well done. Well done. And, Father, I just thank You that we can be in relationship with Him. We asked you to transform us. Yeah. All those horrible bits in our lives. We asked you to come along and just put us right. Help us farther to change. Help us to be more like here. We just love you, Lord. And we want to be more like you. So just help us because we find it difficult. We find it a struggle sometimes. So just come alongside us and help us we pray. Amen.
Reverend Ben Cooper:Amen. Amen. Thank you. Thank you, Jesus. Father, we just pray, Lord, for those that feel that everything is closing in on them this morning. All those that feel that there just doesn't seem to be a way forward and the scripture that's come out this morning, Lord and the way the prayers are going, Father, we just pray, Lord, that you will continue by the Holy Spirit, Lord, just guide us and lead us by your word. And we thank you for love and patience and kindness, and Your goodness and Your mercy and faithfulness. But Lord, I just pray for those that just feel like they're in the position of Joshua chapter six verses one through two. Now the gates of Jericho were surely bowed because of the Israelites, no one went in and no one came out. This is what the Lord said to Joshua. See, I will deliver Jericho into your hands today, along with its kings and all its fighting men. Jericho was closed down not because of the enemy's strength, but because the enemy was and those behind Jericho walls were frightened of the Israelites, you know, let's remind ourselves who we are in Christ. Not in the way that certain ministers tell us that we're little gods and we're equal and all that with, with the Father, but let's just remind ourselves that greater is He that is in us than he that is in the world. And in the book of Joshua and the Old Testament, chapter six, the gates were closed because they was fearful because the Israelites was coming. You know, the Israelites, they wasn't bred for fighting. They wasn't bred for war. They was following clear understanding commandment of God, when I follow the commandment, and when I follow God, and when I follow the word, the enemy retreats and backs on us, the enemy disappears. The enemy locks itself in. You know, they when you look at the Israelites, and we may look at ourselves and think, Well, maybe I'm weak, I don't have this, I don't have that. But what I do have, what I do have is the power of God. The Bible says the battle belongs to the Lord. But the power of prayer and the power of faith and the power of walking with Christ. It's not what we know and who we know on this earth. It's who knows us in heaven. If you wish to go to Psalm 91, you will read a beautiful part of that Psalm, where it talks about God will command his angels concerning you, to lift you up in their hands, to guard you to guide you, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone. Oh man, you know, you are blessed and highly favored. You are wonderfully you are fearfully made without pressing. In the Pentecostal drum, God is supplying for you. God is leading you, God is for you and not against you. We've heard about love and patience. We've heard about the steadfast love of the Lord this morning. But what I find absolutely fascinating in Joshua, chapter six, one and two, is that the gates of Jericho, this great fortified city, that had everything and was loud and proud, suddenly started to lock itself down. Because of the children of God, he'll moon when you look at them Israelites that he was why he would die. He wasn't bred for war. They was they what did they have? They they learned to be obedient. So Lord helped me to be obedient to what the text says the biblical text says not to the preachers and the teachers and, and all all that stuff out there, Lord, But Lord, let me search the word of God. Because when I'm searching the word Seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness. Father, I pray this morning for all those that feel that they're in lockdown mode, we are not in lockdown. The world is in lockdown, and we are free. It's a reverse. Lord, we thank You that where the Spirit of the Lord is there is liberty. We thank You, Lord, that there there are snares being laid out. But Lord, we're not trapped in any snares. Lord, we thank you that you have commanded in angels concerning each and every one of us. So lift us up in their hands, so that we would not strike our foot against the stone. We thank you this morning, Lord, that all things are possible to those who believe. We believe in the deity we believe. In grace, we believe in mercy. We believe in the power of the Holy Spirit. We believe Father, in the Word of God, we believe in the doctrine of the Word of God, we believe father, and Lord, my belief is greater than my understanding. Because lord, I understand that my understanding is of natural elements of my makeup, but my belief, faith comes from hearing the message. And the message is heard through the word of God, Romans, Faith comes, Lord, let me be a believer of the Word of God. Let me stand steadfast on the Word of God, I thank You, Lord, that Jericho was closed, and the gates were surely locked down. Because the Israelites were obedient to the voice of God. Your living word, is like honey on our lips. Your word Father, God is a double edged sword. You are the King of kings and the Lord of lords and this morning, Lord, we are not in Lac, we are not in Lac, because we have everything in Jesus. We are not behind because we have Christ. The enemy has been defeated because of the cross of Calvary. See, everything comes back to the cross of Calvary, everything comes back to our Messiah, the King of kings and the Lord of lords, you are saved, you are blessed, you are a child of the living God. You are chosen. Amen. You are saved, you are redeemed, you are free, you are loved, you are chosen, and you are a son and a daughter of the living God, you are blessed. And let's not look at our outside circumstances of life. But let's look who's on the inside of us. Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world. We don't need money. We don't need an educational stretch. We don't need the greatest. Whatever the world is offering we don't need to ladies hashtag if we get ourselves a Bible. And if we say Dear God in the name of Jesus, I want to understand your word because your word is my life source. Your Word is my strength. Your Word is honey on my lips, your word is yes and amen. Your Word is sharpened and a double edged sword. Your Word is my supplier, because you are the living word. And this morning, Lord, all those Father God that feel that they're in Lac, all those that are worrying about the fuel Christ, the fuel poverty and everything that goes with that, Lord, You created the gas in the earth. You are Lord God creating the electricity you are the atoms. You are the oxygen You are the King of kings and the Lord of lords. We thank you that you own the cattle Lord, on the hills. We thank You, Lord, that You created the grass of the field. We thank you that you put the stars in heaven. We thank you that God said let there be light and there was you are the creator of heaven and earth. And Lord, we shall not be in land because my God shall supply all my needs according to His riches in glory. God you will not let the righteous be beggars of bread. Lord, we thank you that the Bible says in the last days, there'll be famines. There'll be wars, rumors of wars. There'll be desolation there'll be lawlessness. But Lord, we thank You, Lord, that your word is sharper than a double edged sword. And Lord, we thank you for for young David, that ran down into the battlefield with Goliath. You come against me with sword, spear, and javelin, but I come in the name of the Lord. Let's remind ourselves what we carry. We carry the greatest name in heaven on earth, we carry the greatest name on the planet, and God gave him the name Immanuel. And God gave him the name. And we carry your name, and you carry the name of Jesus. You carry the name of Jesus, you carry word, you carry power, you carry, carry authority, because of Jesus Christ, not because of our humanity, but because of his kingship because of his, his, his love His steadfast love that was mentioned this morning, his his righteousness, His power, His glory. God is with us. God is with you. God is for you and not against you. God is renewing and I believe there are many people on the potter's wheel this morning, being reshaped. There are many believers that have been like the protocol of God, a saint you coming back before you even decided to move your lips and come back. We think that we come back but we don't actually go away. Because you can never be separated. Nothing can separate us from the love of God. That is in Christ Jesus. Our bodies, separate ourselves ourselves from him. But you can't be separated for him. Once saved, always saved you are blood washed, you are a child of the living God. And on the potter's world, the potter's wheel is reshaping, it's painful to be reshaped. It's painful to be in the Masters hands. Because their changes change. And our physical body has got to accept I need to change. So law changed me melt me mold me. We're coming to the table in just a few moments our brothers are gonna lead us in, in communion this morning. They're gonna bring us to that place where we break bread and take a cup this morning. But God is for you and he is not against you. There may be many protocols out there and this morning. But before I decided you decided to come back. He see us coming back already. Because the Father's arms are always open. The Father's arms are open. So Lord this morning, before we reach the table of remembrance before we reach the Passover cut before we reach the bread this morning, Lord, I thank You, Lord, and I come to you this morning. I say Lord, forgive me of my failings. Forgive me of my sins, forgive me and wash me in the blood of Jesus. Lord, draw me deeper into a walk with You. Lord, draw me into a greater relationship with you Lord, let me feel your glory more and more. Let me feel your power, your anointing. Let your word Father God, resonate more in my innermost being let your word feel like Fire Lord, let your word LORD be like the latter day rain I don't like to use certain terminologies anymore but Father I just pray Lord that I will fill the refresh in presence of you Lord, like the spring rain falling on the skin Lord, I pray Lord, it will. It will be a fragrance Lord like when the grass has been cut and you can smell nature. And you can smell the beauty of the earth by the Lord. Let us let us feel Lord as the scripture says Your word is like honey on my lips. Lord, I pray that we will be brothers and sisters of the word. Not of past or not of Me, but of the Word of God. Lord, we need the word. Lord, bring us into the Word of God. Bring us in and through. carry us to that place of Scripture. Let your word father come alive in our hearts today. And as Andy and Donnie leaders Father we thank you for those power in the greatest name and Lord Jericho is falling. Your Jericho is falling and your Jericho is about to fall obedience. That's the word obedience. Lord helped me to be obedient to Your word helped me to be an obedient son helped me to be an obedient believer in the Word of God, Lord, help me, Lord, to obey and to follow the word of God. Spirit of the Living God we thank You for Your Word. A wonderful God that you are Mighty Counselor, Mighty God. Thank you Jesus.
Donny Stockburn:Can I just say before we go on this love of God is forever and ever never. I just want to be established in every heart now. This love is no temporary affair. This is forever and ever and ever. And I just got wrote down the this is the most worn out piece. A page in my Bible is in the John 14, verse 16 and 17. It's, I've read it over and over and over again. Because it's so important that we realize this, this love is forever, it will not go. And I'll just read it to you anyway. And Jesus says, yes, on the last night, I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, he may be may abide with you is the word forever. Here is again forever, the Spirit of Truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him, nor knows him. But you know Him for He dwells with you, and will be in you. This is the love of God. This is the message God wants downloaded in our hearts. This is a foundation that this love is forever. You cannot lose his love. He cannot shake him off all your mistakes. Jesus is there forever. He's established in us an old arches. Thank you for that in Jesus name. Amen.

Andy Hammond:thank you, thank you. Thank you, Jesus, we can always rely upon you. And Father, before we come to share the bread and the wine. We come before you in in confession because we know that we constantly trip up on false and then quoted a little bit from Hebrews a while ago and in Hebrews three it says See to it brothers that none of you has a sinful unbelieving heart it turns away from the living God Oh God help my band encourage one another daily. Yes, as long as it is called today so that none of you may be hardened by sins deceitfulness, deceit, fullness. And that's what the enemy wants to do. He wants to deceive us. And we stand against that now in the powerful name of Jesus. And carrying on from Chapter Four in Hebrews, I just read these words, which will lead us to taking the bread and wine. Therefore, since we have a great high priest, who has gone through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly to the faith we profess, for we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses. But we have one who has been tempted in every way just as we are, yet was without sin. Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence so that we may receive mercy and find grace To help us in our title of Father Weaver's proclaim those words now, as we take the brush fall, introduces our master, Lord,
Donny Stockburn:Amen This is blood. This is blood is symbolic of Jesus live life on this earth for the good Lord, it's symbolic of the most powerful thing that ever happened on his planet. The forgiveness of sins came because of his blood Lord, the door to heaven was opened, the door to eternal life was opened her Father God, but the law was fulfilled. It wasn't set aside, it wasn't overlooked. It was paid for in full. And this is the blood that pied it is the blood that secured that most powerful thing that's ever happened in his world. follicle which is thankful is blood that sets us free, that opens the doors to Heaven, to eternal life. And we thank you for it Lord, in Jesus name, amen.
Reverend Ben Cooper:Amen. Thank you, Lord. Thank You, Lord,
Donny Stockburn:thank you.

Oh, man, and what ever the day has a head for us today. We thank You, Father, that this is the day that the Lord has made here we shall rejoice and be glad.

Lord, bless us all we pray in the mighty name of Jesus, just before we say goodbye. Andy is going to share something as he always does regarding the Word of God.
Andy Hammond:Yeah, folks, if you want a copy of God's word, I've always we've always got a copy here available for you. Just message us and we'll get a copy to you. And one last word, but I just looking at these John's gospels on the table here with a picture of her of the Queen Elizabeth at a coronation. I just want to say a big thank you to our queen for the witness that she has been over her years of rain. And she's constantly over the years, made a stand for her faith and reserve something she read at Christmas 2011. In her broadcast, she said God sent into the world a unique person, neither philosopher, nor a general, important though they are that a Savior. Amen. With the power to forgive. Forgiveness lies at the heart of the Christian faith. It can heal broken families. It can restore friendships. It can reconcile divided communities. It is in forgiveness, that we feel the power of God's law. Amazing wise words.
