Praise the Lord Jesus as He rules over us, He that rules over us is full of mercy and grace.  2 Chronicles 16:9 “For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show Himself strong on behalf of those whose heart is loyal to Him.”  There is a loyalty from those who walk in God’s Kingdom and to His church that the eye of the Lord notices.  It’s easy to be loyal to your own cause and your own opinion but it takes faith to be loyal to His cause.  I was praying about this this morning and the idea of being loyal to God.  What came to mind was it’s like a police officer is a part of a team (The Police Department) that works together to keep order.  If you met someone and they said that they were a police officer, and you asked, ‘what department are you with?’  If they said, ‘Oh I am not with any department, all the police departments in Canada don’t see things my way so I am my own police department.  I enforce whatever I believe is proper order.’  What would you think about this person?  The police officer that is loyal to their department even when they don’t always agree or even when someone in the department messes up, they are those that are mature and loyal.  To the loyal officers who work to keep order we show them respect and honor and the Bible is saying that the Lord shows Himself strong on behalf of those that are loyal to Him.  In this New Year, lets continue to be faithful to all that we put our hand to do.

This Sunday morning I’ll be sharing on, ‘Don’t Grow Weary.’  This is another step into the New Year as we do good let’s not grow weary.  Weariness has a lot of problems that can overwhelm us so we must press on to do good and having done all keep standing in good.  Sunday evening we will be having a wedding as a part of the service.  I will be sharing on, ‘The Power Of Covenant.’  It’s in a Godly covenant that we receive the power for the two become one.       

Continue to pray for all those in need.  The New Year has released new opportunities and with them come new attacks from our enemy.  We shall boldly declare that great things are coming our way for this is our hour, lots of love, looking forward to seeing you on Sunday, Pastor Kevin and Alice

Praise the Lord Jesus for all that He has done.  It’s a new year and we need a renewed mind that is set on serving God.  This means that we should want to hang around Heavenly thinking Eagles rather than earthly low minded crows.  Ephesians 2:4-6 “But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus.”  There is a Heavenly place, a seat in Christ with your name on it.  May Divine wisdom be upon you as you pray new prayers, dream new dreams, see new visions, and walk in new miracles.

This is Family Sunday and we start @ 10:15 serving breakfast food followed by the morning service, a building fund offering will be received and Communion will be served.  I’ll be sharing on, ‘Movement In the New Year.’  Everything in this world is moving and if you stand still, life will pass you by.  If you don’t move as fast as you need to, you’ll fall behind.  Jesus said to love the Lord with all you have and I believe for that group of people, they will be able to stay in unity and advance in maturity in the new year.  So make some delicious food and invite a friend and I’ll see you Sunday morning.  Also remember that on Family Sunday there is no evening service.

His mercies are new every morning, great is His faithfulness.  We are in the closing days of 2012 and as we look across the church many new people have been added to the Kingdom of God this pass year.  We give all the glory to the Lord.  I believe the Lord Jesus is building His church and the gates of hell shall not prevail against us.  As we stand on the doorway looking into 2013 I ask the Lord for increase.  More of Him empowering more of us.  Dying to more of our old ways and being renewed by the refreshing wind and fire of the Holy Spirit.  I have often heard preachers say, behold the Lord wants to do a new thing, but I have never felt it more true than in this hour as we advance into the New Year.  Get ready get ready get ready for new from the Holy Spirit is coming to your house.

This Sunday morning I’ll be sharing on, ‘Reflecting & Projecting.’  Looking back and looking ahead causes us to ponder the plan of God and what we can expect in the new year as we walk with Him.  Are we ready to push forward or are we content to sit back?  God reveals His ways that will work for us, all we need to do is be willing to work His ways.  Sunday evening will be a time for the church to testify about the goodness of the Lord.  What did you learn in 2012 and what do you expect the Lord to do in you in 2013?

Continue to pray for all those in need.  Looking forward to seeing you on Sunday, lots of love Pastor Kevin and Alice

Merry Christmas to you and your family.  I pray today fines you well as Christmas 2012 has arrived.  Many people in the world will spend today celebrating with family and friends and I think about you and I who are a part of the great family of God and how we know and celebrate Jesus, the true reason for the season.  All the gifts that we give we hope that they will last all year and be useful to those that receive them.  When I think about God’s One Christmas gift, His Son Jesus Christ, He is a gift that empowers us to live for Him and His Holy Spirit travels with us all year through.  May today be wonder filled and may the new year hold newness of joy for all that you put your hand to do.  From our heart to yours, Merry Christmas, lots of love Pastor Kevin and Alice

Just a few more sleeps till we celebrate the birth of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.  His birth drew a line in the sands of time and we began our journey into a new age called the age of grace.  This age was sealed on the cross and it gives mankind favor with God by the blood of a new and better covenant.  This age will end by the return of Jesus to take His Church into Heaven.  Today Dec. 21^st is the end of the world according to the doom day prophets of this world.  The end cannot be predicted and then made to happen by the voice of man when God has already declared the end from the beginning.  So Keep smiling and looking forward and upward as we proclaim His wonderful name to this generation.

Tonight @ 7 our choir will be singing at the Mayflower Mall.  If you are around drop by and support them as they sing the songs of the Christmas season.  On Sunday in the morning I’ll be sharing, ‘Born In A Barn.’  Jesus could have been born anywhere but God the Father picked a barn.  In the evening @ 6 pm we will be singing, rejoicing, with worship, and praise.  There will be a time of fellowship following the service.  On Monday Dec. 24^th @10:30 we sing at Loaves and Fishes for 1 hour.  All of these events are being posted on our web page.  Please check it out if you have any questions or send me an email.

Praise the Lord for He gave us His blessings that we could become a blessing to others.  We are to love others with the same love He gives us.  Forgive others according to how He has forgiven us and on and on it goes.  Everything that comes from God that’s for you, is to go through you to the world around you.  We often ask God for some great blessings with no intention of sharing them with others.  God wants to bless us and it’s up to us to have the right heart in receiving them.  Look at the stuff around you, the stuff that belongs to you and then look at your heart, is all that you own yours or is it the tools the Lord has supplied to you to bless others?  Christmas is the greatest revelation of this principle.  God had His Son in Heaven but God so loved the world that he was willing to share His Son to meet our need.  Jesus could have stayed in Heaven and left us in our sin but He shared what He had with us.  He was blessed to be the Son of God and to have sinless blood and He gave His blood to redeem you and me.  When you see someone in need be generous with all that the Lord has blessed you with. 

Tonight @ 7 and next Friday @ 7 our choir will be singing at the Mayflower Mall.  If you at around drop by and support them as they sing the songs of the Christmas season.  Tomorrow Saturday there is a practice for all those involved in the Sunday School Christmas presentation which will be the main event Sunday morning.  We consider this to be a highlight of the year as the children act out the Christmas story.  There will be no evening service this Sunday.  Next Sunday Dec. 23 regular morning service with a 6 pm evening service with singing, rejoicing, worship, and pray.  On Monday Dec. 24^th @10:30 we sing at Loaves and Fishes for 1 hour.  All of these events are being posted on our web page.  Please check it out if you have any questions or send me an email.

Another day to give thanks and another day to share God’s love with someone. How important is it to love others?  John 13:35 “By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.”  I could read 1 Corinthians 13 as some of the rules on love but most of us understand about what it means to love.  Most of us have the Bible kind of love for our children, grandchildren, and our spouse but do we have that same level and desire to love all other people?  The greater we love all people the greater we will understand God’s message of love and how it applies to the entire world.  Be aware to show all the people you meet today the love of God.

Tomorrow evening….. Dec. 8^th is Christmas Banquet 2012.  We’ll have special music, great food, and fellowship with guest speaker Pastor Sherrie MacLean.  On Sunday Dec. 9^th there will be a morning service only and our guest speaker is Pastor Steve MacLean.  Pastor’s Steve and Sherrie Pastor at the Moncton Victory Church and are the overseers for the Victory Churches in Atlantic Canada.  Our choir have been practicing and they sound like Angels.  On Friday Dec. 14^th and Friday Dec. 21^st our choir will be singing at the Mayflower Mall @ 7pm.  Sunday Dec. 16^th is our Christmas Sunday School Presentation, there will be no evening service.  Sunday Dec. 23 regular morning service with a 6 pm evening service with singing, rejoicing, worship, and pray.  On Monday Dec. 24^th @10:30 we sing at Loaves and Fishes for 1 hour.  All of these events are being posted on our web page.  Please check it out if you have any questions or send me an email.         

Continue to pray for all those in need.  Looking forward to seeing you at the Banquet, lots of love, Pastor Kevin and Alice
