Who was the one person who never abandoned Jesus?

4/13/2025 morning worship service—Palm Sunday Pastor Anthony Fields " "Asking A Better Question" Luke 13:1-19 And Exodus 3:1-15 ● The Why Question Luke 13:1-9 More meaningful question: — What will I do now that this has happened? — Who do I want to be? — Will I be more than what has happened to me? — How do I want to live my life in light of what has happened? ● The Burning Bush Exodus 3:1-15 ● What If We Are Moses? Maybe every one of us is a Moses. Have you ever thought of that?" _____________________ "Some say this world of trouble is the only one we need but I'm waiting for that morning when the new world is revealed. Psalm 68:4 6, 24 26, 36— "Sing to God, sing praises to his name; exalt him who rides upon the heavens - to yahweh is his name, rejoice before him! Father of orphans, defender of widows God in his holy habitation! God gives the solitary a home and brings forth prisoners into freedom but the rebels shall live in dry places. They see your procession, O God your procession into the sanctuary my God and my King. The singers go before, musicians follow after in the midst of maidens playing upon the hand-drums Bless God in the congregation bless the Lord, you that are of the fountain of Israel. How wonderful is God in his holy places! : the God of Israel giving strength and power to his -people. Blessed be God;" Some say this world of trouble is the only one we need but Im waiting for that morning when the new world is revealed. God of heaven and earth Help us to live in this world faithfully guided by your love, which manifests itself in our love toward one another. Prepare us for that great getting up morning when your new world is fully revealed. Amen." __________________ " "Think on This: Why did He come?" This Sunday is Palm Sunday– the day we remember Jesus riding into Jerusalem, hailed as King. But have you ever stopped to ask why He came? It wasn't just a celebration--it was a mission. A journey to the cross, aligned perfectly with the feast of Passover. Jesus entered Jerusalem to keep Passover... and to fulfill it. He was the true Lamb of God, whose blood would rescue, redeem, and restore. This is one of the most meaningful weeks of the year. Lets help our people see the full story--and the Savior at the center of it." ____________________ " "Is Your Life producing fruit?" John 15:1-6, Galatians 5:22-23 In John 15, Jesus compares Himself to a vine and us to its branches: When We abide in Him, our lives produce fruit. What fruit is evident in your life? Where do you need more growth? What's one way that pruning—removing something harmful or unnecessary— can help you grow in patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, or self-control?"
