Wednesday September 15th - Daily Worshiper….. Day 15
There is a chorus we sing from time to time that comes from a old hymn…. It goes like this:
Jesus paid it all -
All to him I owe
Sin had left a crimson stain - He washed it white as snow
Oh praise the one who paid my debt and raised my life up from the dead
That’s just part of the song! All the lyics and below:
I hear the Savior say - Thy strength indeed is small
Child of weakness watch and pray - Find in me thine all in all
Jesus paid it all - All to him I owe
Sin had left a crimson stain - He washed it white as snow
Lord now indeed I find - Thy power and thine alone
Can change the lepers spots - And melt the heart of stone
Jesus paid it all - All to him I owe
Sin had left a crimson stain - He washed it white as snow
It's washed away! All my sin! And all my shame!
And when before the throne - I stand in him complete
Jesus died my soul to save - My lips shall still repeat
Jesus paid it all - All to him I owe
Sin had left a crimson stain - He washed it white as snow
Sin had left a crimson stain - He washed it white as snow
Oh praise the one who paid my debt and raised my life up from the dead (x6)
Jesus paid it all - All to him I owe
Sin had left a crimson stain - He washed it white as snow!
Two verses for today I want us to look at:
“God paid a high price for you, so don't be enslaved by the world.” 1 Corinthians 7:23
“I have swept away your sins like a cloud. I have scattered your offenses like the morning mist. Oh, return to me, for I have paid the price to set you free." Isaiah 44:22
Wow, think on those verses as you re-read the lyrics from
the song and you will be singing those words…
Oh praise the one who paid my debt and raised my life up from the dead!
IF WE ARE THE BODY
CASTING CROWNS
It's crowded in worship today
As she slips in
Trying to fade into the faces
The girls' teasing laughter is carrying farther
than they know
Farther than they know
But if we are the Body
Why aren't His arms reaching
Why aren't His hands healing
Why aren't His words teaching
And if we are the Body
Why aren't His feet going
Why is His love not showing them there is a way
There is a way
A traveler is far away from home
He sheds his coat
And quietly sinks into the back row
The weight of their judgmental glances tells him
that his chances
Are better out on the road
But if we are the Body
Why aren't His arms reaching
Why aren't His hands healing
Why aren't His words teaching
And if we are the Body
Why aren't His feet going
Why is His love not showing them there is a way
Jesus paid much too high a price
For us to pick and choose who should come
And we are the Body of Christ
If we are the body
Why aren't His arms reaching
Why aren't His hands healing
Why aren't His words teaching
And if we are the body
Why aren't His feet going
Why is His love not showing them there is a way
Jesus is the way
WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF THE CHURCH?
DO YOU THNK IT’S OUR JOB TO HELP THE POOR,
HOMELESS, WIDOWED, NEGLECTED AND ABUSED?
YES IT IS…
NOW, ARE YOU DOING YOUR PART?
WHEN IS THE LAST TIME THAT YOU TALKED TO A VISITOR
AT CHURCH OR HELPED A HOMELESS PERSON IN NEED OF A HOT MEAL. ITS EASY… REALLY
EASY.
ITS JUST LOVING PEOPLE THE WAY JESUS LOVES US….
BUT LETS BE HONEST, WE ARE SO CONSUMED BY
OURSELVES TO EVEN NOTICE THAT GUY ALONE AND WET ON THE STREET OR THE VISITOR
SITTING ALONE IN THE PEWS.
WHAT WE DON’T UNDERSTAND IS THAT WHEN WE HELP
THEM, WE ARE ACTUALLY DOING UNTO GOD AND SHOWING HIM OUR WORSHIP…..
MATTHEW 25:40"The
King will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of
these brothers of mine, you did for me.'
LOVE SOMEONE TODAY…. GET RID OF YOURSELF…..
IT COULD JUST BE JESUS…..
Friday September 17th - Daily Worshiper….. Day 17
Ok so we are two weeks into our daily worshiper times. How are you doing? Today’s song is a powerful song from Chris Tomlin called “Our God.” It talks about our God being greater than any other thing! In Psalm 135:5 We read:
I know the greatness
of the LORD— that our Lord is
greater than any other god.
As you listen to the song/lyrics think about your problems/frustrations right now and know that God is greater than any of those things that are worrying you!
Lyrics
Water you turned into wine, opened the eyes of the blind
there's no one like you none like You!
Into the darkness you shine out of the ashes we rise there's no one like you
none like You!
Our God is greater, our God is stronger, God you are higher than any other.
Our God is Healer, Awesome in Power, Our God! Our God!
Into the darkness you shine out of the ashes we rise there's no one like you
none like You!
Our God is greater, our God is stronger, God you are higher than any other.
Our God is Healer, Awesome in Power, Our God! Our God!
Our God is greater, our God is stronger, God you are higher than any other.
Our God is Healer, Awesome in Power, Our God! Our God!
And if our God is for us, then who could ever stop us.
And if our God is with us, then what could stand against.
And if our God is for us, then who could ever stop us.
And if our God is with us, then what could stand against.
What could stand against.
Our God is greater, our God is stronger, God you are higher than any other.
Our God is Healer, Awesome in Power, Our God! Our God!
Our God is greater, our God is stronger, God you are higher than any other.
Our God is Healer, Awesome in Power, Our God! Our God!
And if our God is for us, then who could ever stop us.
And if our God is with us, then what could stand against.
And if our God is for us, then who could ever stop us.
And if our God is with us, then what could stand against.
Then what could stand against.
Our God is greater, our God is stronger, God you are higher than any other.
Our God is Healer, Awesome in Power, Our God! Our God!
Our God is greater, our God is stronger, God you are higher than any other.
Our God is Healer, Awesome in Power, Our God! Our God!
Saturday September 18th - Daily Worshiper….. Day 18
Whatever Your Doing
Sanctus Real
It's time for healing time to move on
It's time to fix what's been broken too long
Time make right what has been wrong
It's time to find my way to where I belong
There's a wave that's crashing over me
All I can do is surrender
Whatever you're doing inside of me
It feels like chaos somehow there's peace
It's hard to surrender to what I can't see
but I'm giving in to something heavenly
Time for a milestone
Time to begin again
Revaluate who I really am
Am I doing everything to follow your will
or just climbing aimlessly over these hills
So show me what it is you want from me
I give everything I surrender...
To...
Time to face up
Clean this old house
Time to breathe in and let everything out
That I've wanted to say for so many years
Time to release all my held back tears
Whatever you're doing inside of me
It feels like chaos but I believe
You're up to something bigger than me
Larger than life something heavenly
Whatever you're doing inside of me
It feels like chaos but now I can see
This something bigger than me
Larger than life something heavenly
Something heavenly
It's time to face up
Clean this old house
Time breathe in and let everything out
Have you ever felt like God was taking you somewhere but you didn’t really know
were?
Its kind of a weird feeling not having a clue of what’s going on, but fun at the
same time because you know that God has what’s best for you in mind!
But just to be honest, its very rare that we actually give God the freedom to
really move in our lives because we are just to scared that we might have to do
something that is out of our comfort zone or that he may move us somewhere.
And when we have these feelings, we lose the freedom that we have through
Christ….
He knows the plans… FOR YOU…
Just give up…. And GIVE IN to HIS will…..
For I know the plans I have for you," declares the
LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a
future.
Sunday September 20th - Daily Worshiper….. Day 20
In Psalm 98:4
we read “Shout to the LORD, all the earth;
break out in praise and sing for joy!”
Today we all need to LIVE the words of this song as a prayer.. As a matter of
fact I want you all to pray
these lyrics to God and when you get to the words: “With everything, With
everything, We will shout
forth your praise.” End your prayer and then SING or SHOUT out the ending!
Lyrics
Open our hearts, To see the things
That make Your heart cry, To be the church
The You would desire. Light to be seen.
Break down our pride, And all the walls
We've built up inside, Our earthly crowns
And all our desires, We lay at Your feet.
So let hope rise, And darkness tremble
In Your holy light, And every eye will see
Jesus, our God, Great and mighty to be praised.
God of all days, Glorious in all of Your ways.
Your majesty, the wonder and grace,
In the light of Your name.
With everything, With everything,
We will shout for your glory.
With everything, With everything,
We will shout forth your praise.
Our hearts will cry- Be glorified,
Be lifted high, - Above all names.
For You our King,
With everything,
We will shout forth your praise.
Whoa whoa

WHAT ARE YOU LONGING FOR MORE THAN ANYTHING IN YOUR LIFE RIGHT NOW?
A RELATIONSHIP WITH THAT
CERTAIN GUY OR GIRL? POPULARITY? ACCEPTANCE?
LET ME ASK YOU A VERY SPECIFIC
QUESTION
WHAT ABOUT GOD?
SERIOUSLY?
WHERE IS HIS ROLE IN YOUR
LIFE?
DO YOU RUN WITH PASSION TO
HIM?
THAT’S ALL HE WANTS FROM YOU!
IT’S FOR YOU TO YEARN FOR HIM!
TO SPEND TIME WITH HIM AND TO
JUST LOVE HIM WITH WORDS AND ACTIONS!
praise you. On my bed I
remember you; I think of you through the watches of the night. Because you are
my help, I sing in the shadow of your wings. My soul clings to you; your
right hand upholds me” (Psalm 63:1-8).
Yearn for him today…
And when you do?

How does
it feel to be lonely? Or just a feeling like your alone and just need someone to
talk to. We have all been there at one point in our lives. An it not a great
feeling at all. But what is so amazing about God the Father is that he is ALWAYS
there for us no matter what! He tells us in His word in the book of Hebrews 13:5
that He will NEVER leave us or forsake . What an amazing promise. Today, really
notice the fact that Father God is there with you.. No matter were you are, just
be careful were you take Him!
