Oh Lord, praises to your name, oh for your name is great, for your name is great, and 0:24 greatly to be praised, I sing praises to your name, oh Lord, praises to your name, oh Lord, for your name is great, and greatly to be praised. 0:52 Let's lift our hands to him, I give glory, I give glory to your name, oh Lord, glory to your name, oh, for your name is great, lift his name up, for your name is great, and greatly 1:13 to be praised, yes, your name is great, I give glory to your name, oh Lord, glory to your name, oh Lord, for your, yes, your name is great, we lift up your name, Lord Jesus, and greatly to 1:38 thank you for your name, oh Lord, for your name is great, I give glory to your name, oh Lord, let's bow the knee in humble adoration, for at his name, every knee must bow, let every tongue confess, 2:08 he is Christ, God's only son, sovereign Lord, we give you glory now, for all honor and blessing and power, belongs to you, belongs to you, yes, all honor and blessing and power, belongs to you, 2:45 belongs to you, belongs to you, Lord Jesus Christ, son of the living God, let's sing it from the top, 3:06 Jesus, take the highest place, Jesus, shall take the highest honor, Jesus, shall take the highest praise, let all earth join heaven in exalting, the name which is above all other names, 3:31 let's bow the knee in humble adoration, for at his name, every knee must bow, let every tongue confess, he is Christ, God's only son, sovereign Lord, we give you glory now, for all honor and blessing, 4:00 and power, belongs to you, yes, all honor and blessing, and power, belongs to you, yes, Lord, take it all, belongs to you, yes, all honor and blessing and power, belongs to you, belongs to you, belongs to you, Lord Jesus Christ, son of the living God, 4:29 all honor and blessing and power, belongs to you, yes, all honor and blessing and power, belongs to you, belongs to you, yes, all honor and blessing and power, belongs to you, belongs to you, Lord Jesus Christ, 4:58 Lord Jesus Christ, Son of the living God. Here's an old hymn, we've sung it here a few times, but I just want to remind us of this hymn. It says, "If all of earth is singing to you and praising you, the trees, the mountains, all of the creation around us, 5:21 then these lips should surely bring you a tribute," we'll say in that third verse, "because you've redeemed us, because of what you've done for us." Oh, wonderful, glorious Redeemer, I'll worship the Savior divine, and rejoice, surrounded with praises, that thou will still hear a song such as mine. 5:38 Have you thought that God in heaven is leaning down, listening for your prayer? The angels around Him are singing, all of creation is exalting Him, the saints there in His presence are singing, but He wants to hear your voice, you are His child, He wants to hear you singing. 5:52 So children, adults, everybody, sing this song with rejoicing. Let's sing a little more. Let me sing for the glory of heaven, like a sunbeam has swept o'er my heart. I would praise Thee for sins all forgiven, for Thy love which shall never depart. 6:21 If Thy works praise Thee giver of good, if the sun shines His praise unto Thee, if the wind as it sighs through the wood makes a murmur of song from each tree, 6:42 then these lips sure a tribute shall bring, though unworthy the praises must be. Shall all nature be vocal and sing, and no song of rejoicing from Thee. 7:02 O wonderful, glorious Redeemer, I would worship Thee, Savior divine, Let's sing that verse again. Let's sing that verse again. 7:23 O wonderful, glorious Redeemer, I would worship Thee, Savior divine, And rejoice, O surrounded with praises, Thou will still hear a song such as mine. 7:46 "Yesterday, today, forever, Jesus is the same. All may change, but Jesus never, glory to His name." Yes, glory to His name. Glory to His name. Glory to His name. Glory to His name. All may change, but Jesus never. 8:12 Glory to His name. Oh, how sweet this message. Oh, how sweet the glorious message. Simple faith may claim. Yesterday, today, forever, Jesus is the same. All may change, but Jesus never, glory to His name. Still He loves to save the sin, for heal the sick and lame. 8:31 Still He loves to save the sin, for heal the sick and lame. Cheer the mourners still, the tempest, glory to His name. Yesterday, today, forever, Jesus is the same. All may change, but Jesus never, glory to His name. 8:54 Glory to His name. Glory to His name. Glory to His name. All may change, but Jesus never, glory to His name. He who pawns the friend of sinners, seeks the lost one now. 9:15 Sinner, come, and at His foot still penitently bow. He who said, "I'll not condemn thee, go and sin no more." Speeds to Thee that word of pardon as in days of yore. 9:35 Yesterday, today, forever, Jesus is the same. All may change, but Jesus never, glory to His name. Glory to His name. Glory to His name. All may change, but Jesus never, glory to His name. 10:03 Yes, they do. Thank you, Lord. He who gave His healing virtue to a woman's God. To the faith, to the faith, to the faith that claims His fullness still will give us much. 10:28 Yesterday, today, forever, Jesus is the same. All may change, but Jesus never, glory to His name. Glory to His name. Glory to His name. All may change, but Jesus never, glory to His name. 10:56 As He walked once to Emmaus, with them to a child. Yes, He shall be with us. So through all life sway He walketh ever near our side. Soon again we shall behold and hasten, Lord, the day. But will still be with us. 11:17 But will still be there, say Jesus, as He went away. Praise you, Lord. Yesterday, today, forever, Jesus is the same. All may change, but Jesus never, glory to His name. Glory to His name. Glory to His name. 11:38 Glory to His name. All may change, but Jesus never, glory to His name. Yesterday, today, forever, Jesus is the same. All may change, but Jesus never, glory to His name. 12:02 Glory to His name. Glory to His name. All may change, but Jesus never, glory to His name. Praise you, Lord. We give you thanks and honor. Hallelujah. Praise you, Lord. Thank you. 12:25 Let's remain in a spirit of prayer. It's a wonderful thing that Jesus is the same. You know, we heard about that woman's touch, that He touched the hem of His garment. And even though He doesn't guarantee us physical healing, we know that it's the power by which He was able to heal everybody that came to Him, 12:41 that today will fulfill His guaranteed promise that He wants to conform us into the image of Jesus. So trust Him today. Is it a deliverance from something that you're looking for? Is it more of Christ? Is it to love your wife, love your husband as Christ has loved you? 12:56 Is it the ability to lead your children in a godly life and to set an example for them? Is it a desire to be more at peace and free from anxiety and worry in any situation? Is it a longing to be set free from a love for this world completely? 13:10 Cry out to Him. It's the power that He manifested here on this earth that's now available to us to transform us in the inner man. So pray to Him as we have this time of prayer. Commit your needs to the Lord. Draw near to Him while He is near. 13:23 Cast your burden upon Him and He will sustain you. He has promised it. He says, "Come to me all of you who are weary and heavy laden. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me because I'm meek and gentle in heart. You will find rest." 13:37 It's a promise. It's written. He said it. He will do it. You will find rest if you're longing for Him. If you'll take His yoke upon you and learn from Him. And learn the spirit of gentleness and meekness in every situation and true rest. 13:50 Father, we thank You that we can come to You today. We exalt You and praise You that You are our Heavenly Father. Oh, that we would know more fully the love of the Father within us, Lord. I pray that we will keep ourselves in Your love at all times. 14:04 No matter what we face, that we'll keep ourselves in Your love. That that will be a place that we never depart from. To know that You loved us. You chose us before the foundations of the world. You decided our destiny. That we would be conformed into the image of Your Son, Jesus. 14:18 And You're committed to finishing that work, Lord. And so I pray that none of us will lose hope, lose faith, keep us strong, Lord. Lord, I pray on behalf of any who are here who are struggling in some way where the devil has had a foothold in their life or does even this morning. 14:32 We bind the work of Satan in the name of Jesus. Resist you, Satan. You're a defeated enemy. You have no authority over the child of God who has been cleansed in the blood of Jesus Christ. Who's seated in the heavenlies with Jesus Himself, our captain and master and older brother, our Lord. 14:47 So we bind Your work, Satan, and resist you. Thank You, Father, that we do have authority. And we can continue to exercise that authority. The keys have been given to us back, Lord. And You have entrusted it to Your church to bind Satan's work. 14:59 So help us to be faithful to do that. We pray. We lift up those that are in need spiritually, Lord. Suffering in some way. Addictions, bad habits, love for the world. Anxiety, fear, lack of patience. Whatever it might be, Lord. 15:12 Lust, anger. Thank You that You came to save us from all sin. Your name is Jesus. That same Jesus who we sang about. Who is the same yesterday, today, and forever. His name means that we shall experience salvation from all sins. 15:25 So save us, Lord. Draw us more and more into that complete salvation from all the things of this earth. We want to have a love for nothing on this earth, Lord. So do that, we pray. Let us experience that reality even more. 15:37 Every single individual here from the youngest to the oldest. And transform our marriages, Lord. Make them like a taste of heaven. That our children will see a spirit of heaven in our love for each other in the home. The way we speak to each other. 15:49 The gentleness. The genuine love. Self-sacrificing. Thinking of others. That our children also might learn that, Lord. Let our homes be a taste of heaven. A foretaste of heaven. That's what we long for, Lord. And we cry out to You. 16:00 We know that by Your Holy Spirit this is possible. A changed life. A changed marriage. A changed home. And a changed church experience as well, Lord. Not that we come here out of routine and ritual. But that we experience Your presence in a real way. 16:13 Your Holy Spirit filling us in a deeper way. So, Lord. We lift our hearts to You. We lift our heads up. We open our mouths wide. We lift our hands to You. And say, Lord. Pour out Your Spirit within us. Fill us, Lord. With a fresh anointing like we've never experienced yet. 16:25 Not because we deserve it, Lord. We don't. That's the last thing. We don't deserve it at all. We've promised it. And we come to You on the basis of Your promise of the Holy Spirit that will fill us, Lord. That will change us. 16:36 That will lift us up to be joyful in every situation. That that joy will be our strength. To be full of peace in every situation. To be full of all the fruit of the Holy Spirit. Love for everyone. Even those that are harsh to us and mean to us. 16:51 Change us, Lord. Give us the love. Let that love of God be shed abroad in our hearts through Your Holy Spirit like You said it would, Lord. So thank You. Come Holy Spirit. Fill us afresh. Loose us, Lord. Loose our tongues that we will praise You more freely. 17:04 That we will experience the liberty that comes when the Spirit of the Lord is there. Thank You, Lord. We will do that. You will do that in our midst. And knit our hearts together, Lord. As families even within this church to a deeper, caring love. 17:17 Where we intercede for each other. We join hands with You in interceding on behalf of those You've placed in our lives. We thank You, Lord. And establish this church not for our namesake, Lord. We want to be nobodies. We want to decrease even more today than yesterday, Lord. 17:30 Or times past that You might increase even more in our midst. In our lives, Lord. And let this church be a lighthouse that stands for the truth of Your Word, Lord. That we won't depart from. Stands for the truth of the power of Your Holy Spirit within us. 17:43 That we lean not on ourselves, Lord. That we are leaning on You. Simply like branches in the vine. Abiding in You and experiencing Your life. I thank You for every father here, Lord. And all the men here. But especially the fathers, Lord. 17:55 On this day that the world recognizes fathers. We thank You, first of all, that You have shown us what fatherhood really is. You have been a loving father. You are good. And all of us are evil compared to how good a father You have been. 18:06 We praise You for that, Lord. And I pray that as we know more of Your love as a father, that that will be a foundation in our life that will never change. We'll find security in everything that we do. And as a result, we as fathers will be able to truly exemplify God. 18:21 Exemplify You, Lord, to our children. That we can say to our children that they've seen us. They've seen a little bit of You as a father. They've seen a little bit of Jesus, Lord. That's our longing. Oh, how far we are from that, Lord. 18:33 But we know You're pressing on to perfection. We want our children to really see You. You have a little window into Your heart as a father, Lord, through seeing us. Help us, Lord Jesus. We bless all the fathers here. We believe You bless them, Lord. 18:46 You've given us a calling. It's a mighty calling, Lord, to train up our children in the instruction and discipline of the Lord. I pray we'll take that seriously. That we will, first of all, know that there's no sin in our lives. 18:57 There's no lack of commitment to Your kingdom. That Your kingdom is the only thing we seek. And Your righteousness is the only thing that we seek, Lord. Our children will be able to testify that by looking at our lives. 19:07 That we're committed to building Your church. This is what will remain, Lord. Nothing else will remain. We know that You're seeking to. You've ransomed Your church out from the world. I pray that we will prove that in the example we set to our children. 19:18 Give us grace, Lord. We fall on our face and humbly say we cannot do this. It's such an awesome task. But You will help us. You will strengthen us. We believe that You will, Lord, through the power of Your Holy Spirit. In Jesus' name. 19:30 Amen. Amen. You may be seated. But let's continue to sing loud a couple more songs. Songs of consecration. This is another song that's easy to sing without meditating on the words that we're about to sing. My goal is God Himself, not even joy, not peace, not blessing, but Himself my God. 20:00 And so it's up to Him to lead me there because this is my goal. If the Lord is leading you a particular way, the Lord will lead you according to your goal. That's how I see it. And you can chase your earthly goals and the Lord will let you go. 20:16 But if you set your goal as God Himself, He will lead you there. It's not your job to determine the direction and the way. As long as you say, Lord, at any cost, by any road, my goal is You. And so my faith bounce forward to its goal in God. 20:36 And my love can trust Him to lead me there. He will uphold me while my soul is following Him hard till God has full fulfilled my deepest prayer. My goal is God Himself, not joy, nor peace, nor even blessings, but Himself my God. 21:13 Tis His to lead me there, not mine, but Him at any cost, dear Lord, by any road. 21:35 Yes, Lord, that's our prayer. So faith bounce forward to its goal in God. And love can trust her, Lord, to lead her there. 21:58 Upheld... Oh, trust Him. He will uphold you. Soul is falling high. Till God hath fulfilled my deepest prayer. 22:20 No matter if the way be sometimes time. Help us, Lord, to trust Him. No matter though the cost be often squared. 22:41 He knoweth how I best shall reach the ground. The way that leads through Him must lead me there. 23:03 One thing I know I cannot say in ways. This one thing I do. One thing I do. One thing I do. One thing I do. I press towards my Lord. 23:26 My God, my glory. Here from day to day. And in the glory. There my great ringing Lord. 23:50 He's calling you. Listen. Sweetly Lord have we heard Thee calling. Come follow me. And we see where Thy fruit sings fully. Lead us to Thee. 24:16 For Prince of Jesus. That makes the pathway low. We will follow the steps of Jesus where'er they come. 24:38 Oh, dear Lord, in the pathway keeping, we follow Thee. Through the gloom of that place of weeping, Gethsemane. 25:00 Footprints of Jesus that made the pathway go. We will follow the steps of Jesus where'er they go. 25:21 If Thy way and its sorrows bearing we go again. Up the slope of the slope of the hillside bearing our cross of Jesus. Wherever you hear the Lord, help us to trust you. 25:43 The footprints of Jesus that make the pathway go. We will follow the steps of Jesus where'er they go. By and by and by through the shining portals turning our feet. 26:13 We shall walk with the gladly mortals in heaven's golden street. The footprints of Jesus that made the pathway go. 26:35 We will follow the steps of Jesus where'er they come. We will follow the steps of Jesus where'er they come. Then at last, when on high He sees us, our journey done. 26:56 We will rest forever. We will rest forever. We will rest where the steps of Jesus end at His throne. My goal is God's. The footprints of Jesus that make the pathway go. 27:22 We will rest forever. We will rest forever. We will rest forever. We will rest forever. The footprints of Jesus that make the pathway go. We will rest forever. We will rest forever. We will rest forever. Help us forward. 27:31 We will rest forever. We will rest forever. We will rest forever. We will follow the steps of Jesus wherever they go.
