New Life's Worship Service on July 28th, 2024, the Tenth Sunday after Pentecost
Worship Service on July 28th, 2024, the Tenth Sunday after Pentecost, at New Life Ev. Lutheran Church of Lake Zurich. Service folder/bulletin: http://www.newlife-wels.org/podcast/p... Before Service Prayer: Father, I am hungry in my spirit for Your message of pardon and comfort. All week I have struggled against my sinful flesh, many times unsuccessfully. Feed me this morning in Your house with the heavenly manna of Your Word, and satisfy my longings for mercy. I Jesus' name I pray. Amen. Today's Theme: GOD MEETS OUR NEED TO MEET OTHERS' NEEDS: King David explains, "The earth is the LORD's and everything in it" (Psalm 24:1). That word "everything" doesn't leave any wiggle room, does it? That word "everything" means that your home and all its furnishings, your vehicle and all that's in the trunk, your bank account, the twenty-eight dollars in your wallet, the wallet itself, and the pocket in which you carry your wallet all belong to God. Everything you have was given to you by your good and gracious Father. We need to understand that. But it is just as important that we understand why God provides for our physical needs. As we have seen throughout this worship series, God has called us to ministry. He asks us to reflect His love in meeting the physical and spiritual needs of others. Believers want to serve others in those ways. By providing for us, God meets our need to meet others' needs. This week Jesus promises that He will provide the resources necessary to conduct meaningful ministry.
