Long Distance Faith

Preparing for Worship

Jeremiah 17:7-8 (NKJV)

Blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD, and whose hope is the LORD. For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters, which spreads out its roots by the river, and will not fear when heat comes; but its leaf will be green, and will not be anxious in the year of drought, nor will cease from yielding fruit.

Prayer

Faithful God, we praise You for all the promises You have given to us in Christ Jesus. You are trustworthy and a promise-keeping God. I thank You for all that You have been doing especially those that are hidden from us. Your zeal to fulfill all Your promises is worthy of highest praise. We worship You for who You are. Be exalted in our praises. In Jesus' name. Amen.

R-14 INCARNATION 道成肉身

Philippians 2:5-11 (NKJV)

Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men. And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross. Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Worship Through Prayer

1. Lord, thank You for Your Holy Word. It has shown me how trustworthy You are. I pray to have faith like those people in the Bible who trusted You confidently especially in desperate times because they believe in You and Your Word. Help me to have the courage to live by faith trusting in You.

2. O God, when I begin to panic because of the troubles around me, help me to focus my eyes on the Lord Jesus who alone can save me from all my troubles. I trust You. Help me overcome my fears and doubts. Give me the faith to cling on to You, my Deliverer. Help! Save me!

3. Lord, help me to trust Your Word. Your truths and commands were given to us not just for information or advice but they are there for us to trust and obey. Help me live by faith in accordance to Your Word regardless of what life may bring. Let me see more of Your power as I follow You constantly. Be glorified in my life. In Jesus' name. Amen.
