Preparation for Sunday
Read Romans 12:1-2; Luke 1:26-38
Today, on this third Sunday of Advent, we will light the candle of JOY. Pastor Lyle will continue our series on the attributes of God by taking a second week to look at the implications of Christ’s coming as “Immanuel – God With Us.” We’ll focus on how “God With Us” is our true mentor through His Holy Spirit.
Apply:
- In Romans we read how God desires to transform us as we turn our minds to the direction of His Spirit through His Word. How are you intentionally turning your thoughts to Scripture so that God might increasingly shape you into His character?
- After listening to this morning’s message, how do you believe God is asking you to respond?
- Ask God to work in our congregation and in your heart as we gather to worship Him today.
Pray
- Pray for all who will be involved in our services today.
- Pray that God would effectively be at work in our church and in all His churches throughout our city today.
- Pray for the ministry of the Pregnancy Care Centre.
- Pray for our Children’s Ministry Director, Jerilyn Bayer and her interns, Emily Okken, Delaney Roth, Joel Faszer, Amanda Donst, and Bailey Garbutt.
