Sunday Service (14th July, 2019)

TOPIC: STEPPING UP ONTO GREATER GLORY
TEXT: Ps 34:4-10
4 I sought the
Lord, and he answered me; he delivered me from all my fears.
5 Those who look
to him are radiant; their faces are never covered with shame.
6 This poor man
called, and the Lord heard him;he saved him out of all his troubles.
7 The angel of the
Lord encamps around those who fear him,and he delivers them.
8 Taste and see
that the Lord is good; blessed is the man who takes refuge in him.
9 Fear the Lord,
you his saints, for those who fear him lack nothing.
10 The lions may
grow weak and hungry,but those who seek the Lord lack no good thing.
INTRODUCTION
Glory
to God for this great grace to be together again today
LESSON
1.
REJOICE
IN THE LORD OUR SAVOIR (Vs.4 &6)
2.
APPRECIATE
THE LORD OUR PROTECTOR (Vs 7)
3.
EXPERIENCE
THE LORD WHO IS EVER GOOD (Vs 5 & 8) Do not worship from afar, come close
and experience this ever good God. Get off the outer courts, come into the
“holy of holies” and have a first-hand experience of the goodness of the Lord.
It has been for some time that you have been hearing about the goodness of
God.... and you shout ‘Praise the Lord’, it is time you come in and ‘taste’ of
this goodness yourself.
4. SEEK
TO THE LORD WHO IS ABLE (Vs 9-10). This great God is able “to do immeasurably more than all we ask or
imagine”
(Eph. 3:20). We can
never ask beyond His capacity – whatsoever we can think and ask, He is capable
to do it. Vs. 10 of our passage says “those who seek the Lord lack no good
thing.”
PRAYER
TIME
·
This great God has said in Matthew 7:7
that “Seek and you will find....” as we seek the Lord today, we shall find Him
in Jesus name. Amen.
·
This passage says “...lack no good thing.”
“Good” means something “functional, worthwhile, valuable, useful,
pleasant and beneficial,” and because “no
one is good except God alone” (Mark 10:18), we should add “Godly” to those
attributes of “good”
PRAYER
POINTS
a. THANK
GOD BECAUSE HE WHO HAS PROMISED is not man that he should lie.... therefore let
us take some time to worship Him
b. WE
CAN NOT SEEK GOD WITH BAGAGES OF GARBAGE.
Will you drop these bags of garbage at the foot of the cross today? So that you
can ride the ‘old rugged cross’ onto glory
c. PAUSE AND
CHECK: IS YOUR SOUL PROSPERING? For 3 John 1:2 says
2 Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers. (NKJV)…. Pray.

CORNER
Every living person is a
‘work in progress’ with God. As we grow in Him, there are still higher heights
to attain. A child of God can never outgrow the need for God. Today, we shall
together raise our voices in prayer in appreciation of what He has done and in
anticipation of what He will still do.

1. Appreciate God for grace to be
alive. Ask God to open your eyes to see the area He wants you to do more
exploits for Him.
