0:06 As we gather, may your spirit work within [music and singing] us. As we gather, may we glorify your [music and singing] name. Knowing well that as our hearts [music] 0:24 begin to worship, we'll be blessed [music and singing] because we came. >> [music] >> We'll [singing] be blessed because >> Oh, do you believe it? Let's sing that again from the top. As [music] we gather, >> As we gather, may [singing] 0:45 your spirit work [music] within us. As we gather, [singing] may we glorify your name. >> [music] >> Knowing well that [singing] as our hearts begin [music] to worship, 1:04 we'll be blessed [singing] because we came. >> [music] >> We'll be blessed [singing] because we came. >> Yes, Lord, we believe it. The steadfast love. >> Steadfast [singing] 1:19 [music] love of the Lord never ceases. His mercies [singing and music] never come to an end. They are new [music] every morning. 1:40 New [singing] every morning. Great [music] is thy faithfulness, >> [singing] >> oh Lord. >> [music] >> Great is thy faithfulness. >> [singing] >> The steadfast 2:00 love of [singing] the Lord never ceases. >> [music] >> His mercies never [singing] come >> [music] >> to an end. >> [singing] >> They are new every morning, 2:18 >> [music] >> new >> [singing] >> every morning.

Great is thy [singing] faithfulness. 2:41 [music] >> [music] >> Great is thy [singing] faithfulness. >> [music] >> Great is thy [singing] faithfulness. Morning by >> [singing] >> morning, 3:01 new mercies >> [singing and music] >> I see. All >> [music] >> I have needed, thy >> [singing] >> hand hath provided. [music] Great >> [singing and music] 3:20 >> is thy faithfulness, Lord, >> [singing] >> unto me. >> [music] >> Oh, when He has given us such promises, do we have to doubt anything that He has said? Our memory verse for this week is, "All things are possible [music] 3:40 to the one who believes." Let's sing this hymn of faith. >> Begone, [music and singing] unbelief, my Savior is near, >> [music] >> and for my [singing] relief will surely appear. [music] By prayer let me wrestle and He 3:57 [singing and music] will perform. With Christ in the vessel, I smile at the storm. [singing and music] Though dark [singing] be [music] my way, since He is my guide, 'tis mine to [singing] obey, 4:17 'tis His to provide. Though [music] cisterns be broken and creatures all fail, the word He has spoken [music] shall surely prevail. >> [music] 4:34 >> His love in time past forbids [singing] me to think He'll leave me at last >> [music] >> in trouble [singing] to sink. Each sweet Ebenezer [music and singing] I have in review confirms His good pleasure to help me 4:54 quite [singing] through. >> [music] >> Before we go on to the next verse, I want us to meditate on what we just sang. His love in time past, pause for a moment, dear brothers, >> [music] >> dear sisters, and dear children as well. 5:07 Some of you children, you haven't lived very long, but already you can think about how the Lord's been faithful. [music] The word used here is Ebenezer. Ebenezer means hitherto, up to this point the Lord has brought me safely. 5:20 >> [music] >> Think about all those times when you were worried about how you would make it through. Think about all those times when you thought that everything was going to collapse around you, and yet here you are. The Lord has brought you. [music] 5:31 Think about those times when you felt so sick that you didn't think you would live. And yet here you are. The Lord has brought us [music] to this point, and He will carry us through to the very end. And the Lord instructed the people 5:43 of Israel to put up stones [music] of remembrance. That's what Ebenezer means. Stones of remembrance, so that they would look back and think but how he'd been faithful. Put up a stone of remembrance today, July 12th, 2026, [music] 5:57 and say, "Lord, remind me of all the ways in which you've been faithful. Here I am standing. Here I am alive. Here I am and your spirit is still working within me. Help me never again to live in unbelief. Never again to allow even a moment of 6:11 worry or anxiety to come in. No matter what I face, >> [music] >> your word is true. You are true to your promises." Let's sing this verse again. His love in time past forbids me to think that he'd leave me to sink in trouble. 6:25 >> His love in time [singing and music] past forbids me to think he'll leave me [music and singing] at last in trouble to sink. Each sweet Ebenezer [music and singing] I have in view confirms his [singing] good pleasure to 6:44 help [music] me quite through. Since all [music and singing] that I need shall work for my good, the bitter is [music] sweet, the [singing] medicine is food. 7:01 Though painful at present, will cease [music and singing] before long. And then, [singing] oh, how [music] pleasant the conqueror's song. >> [music and singing] >> Amen. Let's spend a few minutes in 7:21 prayer. Personal consecration. You know, we often sing words written by other people. Yes, godly words, spiritual words, spiritual hymns and psalms, but use your own words now, dear brother, sister, and child, to tell the Lord how 7:35 much you love him and how, despite how it's been even up to this point, despite all the failures, today you're making a commitment. Lord, I want my life to be meaningful for you. I believe this with all my heart. If you're willing to receive it in faith, I 7:49 believe this is the promise of the Lord that today it's not too late to begin and to commit your life fully to the Lord Jesus Christ, even if you were to start today and complete the work that he planned for you to finish on this earth. It's not too late. 8:04 Today is the day of salvation. Today, if you hear his voice, don't harden your heart. He's able to do it if you will have faith. If you will trust him fully and say, "Lord, I place an altar in front of me today, an altar that 8:16 involves you and me and everything that's precious to me. I lay it on the altar in front of you today. Have it all, Lord. It's yours. I refuse to ever take it back off that altar. I refuse to ever choose myself. Today, I make a 8:29 decision to follow you, no turning back." So, pray that prayer even as I lead us in prayer. Pray in your heart to the Lord. Lift up your voice. Lift up your hands to him if you must, but make this decision. Make this a time of 8:41 consecration between you and the Lord, between you and your Father in heaven who gave his only begotten Son. And having given his Son, how much more will he not give you all that you need? He'll give it to you freely. Heavenly Father, we commit our 8:56 lives to you and we thank you for your presence already here, Lord, as we invited you to be here and take the important the most important place to take the only place, not just in this room, but in our hearts, where it really 9:08 matters. Come and fill more of my heart today, Lord, than you have filled yet. That's the cry of my heart. That's the cry of our hearts, Lord. So, pray that Lord Jesus, you will captivate us, captivate our vision. Open our eyes a 9:20 little bit more to see you for your your glorious majesty and how precious you are, Lord. We want to be believers in you. To those of us who have believed, you are precious indeed, Lord Jesus. And we haven't even seen it yet, but we want 9:33 to see more of that so so can love you more. Thank you for your tremendous love. Thank you for your your faithfulness that goes beyond even the earthly blessings that you've given us, the material blessings that you have 9:44 taken care of, the fact that we're alive and we have health in our bodies. That's just small compared to what you've done spiritually, that you reconciled us us with you, Heavenly Father. Lord Jesus, that you were willing to become sin on 9:57 our our behalf so that we could be the righteousness of God through you, Lord Jesus. We never want to take that for granted. That's what will matter. And so, Lord, we give you thanks. We give you praise. We give you glory. We say, 10:08 "You alone are worthy. You are worthy to receive all the glory and honor and praise." We don't want that just to be empty words, Lord, that we say on a Sunday morning and forget about. Prove that May we prove that you are worthy by 10:20 how we live our lives this week. That in that moment of temptation, in that moment where it costs us something to choose ourself or to choose the things of this world versus choosing you, that we will choose you and let you have the 10:32 lordship of our lives and to be the king in our hearts. May we prove that you are worthy by how we live, Lord. And may these words that we offer you on at times like this just be the overflow of lives that are fully surrendered to you. 10:45 Be glorified. Be exalted. Thank you. I pray for any who's in a spiritual battle, whoever it might be, Lord, where the devil has a foothold in their life, a man, a woman, a child, whoever it might be, Lord. I pray in the name of 10:56 Jesus. You said that you came to set the captives free, and you gave us authority on earth to bind on this earth that it would be bound in the heavenlies and to loose on this earth knowing it would be loosed in the heavenlies. And so today, 11:08 Lord, we pray in the name of Jesus that you will loose those that need to be loosed, any who are bound by sin, bad habits, addiction, whatever it might be, discouragement, a cloud of heaviness hanging over their head, whatever it 11:19 might be. I pray you'll come today, Lord, and let the sunlight break through and loose them in the name of Jesus, I pray. Let them use the promises of your word to open those prison doors and come out of the darkness and come into the 11:30 light. Thank you that there's safety in the light. There's safety in Jesus, in your presence. You're not here to condemn us, Lord. You're here to set us free. Thank you for your Holy Spirit that convicts us and loosens us and 11:42 encourage us encourages us and sets us free. Lord, we want to be set free from sin. That's what you came to do, Lord. This is the mark of freedom that we are set free from sin. Will you do that? I pray especially for those we know, Lord, 11:55 who may be struggling or were listening to this prayer here in this room, wherever they might be. I pray you'll loose them, Lord. Thank you that you have overcome Satan permanently. You defeated him. You stripped him of all 12:06 his power and all of his hosts of hell have no power or authority over us. And so we stand on that victory today as you stand in victory, Lord. So we too look forward to the future in hope. Future on this earth and future with you. Thank 12:19 you. I pray for every marriage. Pray that you'll knit the hearts of husband and wives more closely together in unity. We know that your your plans for our marriages is the unity of heaven. As you and the Father are one, Lord Jesus, 12:32 so can we be one in our home. So will you build that unity between in in our marriages? For every husband and wife represented here or listening to this prayer, will you knit our hearts together, Lord? We're not satisfied with 12:43 just cohabiting, living together in the same house. We want marriages that glorify you, that are a taste of heaven. Lord, will you do that in our homes? We cry out to you. We need it. We can't do it on our own. We don't want a marriage 12:55 that looks good in the world's eyes, but a marriage that you are pleased because it's the spirit of heaven in our homes. And likewise between children and parents, will you knit the hearts of our Lord, parents to the children and 13:06 children to the parents? You You promised you would do that before you came, that would you would send the Holy Spirit restoring the hearts of the fathers to their children and the children to their fathers. Will you do 13:16 that? For any relationships between parents and children that have grown cold, will you knit that? Will you reunite them, Lord, in love? Come and send your Holy Spirit and do that work of knitting and uniting. Make our homes 13:28 a taste of heaven, we pray, Lord, that the spirit of unity is there. That the children in their obedience to their parents will glorify you and please you by it. Give us compassionate hearts, Lord, for our children. Give us wisdom 13:41 as we raise them. That we won't just be a set of rules, Lord, but that the Holy Spirit that's working in our hearts will work in theirs as well. Bring a revival among our young people and our children, Lord. A revival to holiness, a desire for the 13:55 things of heaven more than the things of this world. Thank you. Thank you you will do that. We give you thanks, Lord. I pray also as you build unity in our homes that you'll build unity in this church, a deeper unity among families, 14:07 brothers and sisters, and knit together by the Holy Spirit in a in a love that lasts forever, Lord. Not a temporary earthly love, not a club attachment, but a spirit, Lord, that's here that knit our heart knits our hearts together 14:20 forever, Lord. That's the unity. We know that our home is in heaven. We want to be a part of that building that you're building. No earthly attachment, no earthly allegiance, but our allegiance to you, Lord Jesus. We are united 14:31 because of you, the head. So, do that. Deep build deeper unity. Thank you for the work you've done in this church. And I pray, Lord, you'll use us as a lighthouse. I pray that every one of us will be so filled with the spirit that 14:42 we're bold witnesses for you, unashamed of what you've done, and and fulfilling the work, Lord, of being an evangelist and being faithful witnesses for you in the places where you placed us, in our neighborhoods, in our workplaces, in the 14:54 grocery stores, even in the community around here in Loveland, Lord. I pray that you will you'll use us. Let our lights shine. We don't want to hide our lights under a bushel. Set this church on a hill, a light a city that cannot be 15:06 hid because of the light that's shining in in our midst, Lord. The presence of Jesus and your life working in us. Let that be the lights, Lord. You said if you are lifted up, you will draw all men to you. Do that, Lord, through our us. 15:20 May we be hidden. May we decrease that you might increase more. Forgive us, Lord, for where we have tried to increase our own kingdom, our own goals, our own ambitions, our own plans. We set aside all of that. We allow you, Lord, 15:36 we give you freedom to decrease our plans for ourselves, to decrease our future that you might increase. May you increase in everything, Lord. Thank you that you care for our material needs as well. We pray for any who are sick, some 15:48 who are sick and can't be here today, others who deal with constant pain in their bodies, Lord. Will you lay your hands on them even right now and touch them? We know there's healing power. Our bodies are for you, Lord, and so we 15:59 commit the the bodies of those who are suffering in some way, in sickness, Lord, or pain. Will you touch them and heal them? Lord, we've asked for it before, but we're not giving up and we're not giving up in unbelief. Our hope grows stronger even as it as 16:13 the as it the delay in your answering, Lord, but it's not a delay. You know we know that your time is right, so we lift up those that need a touch from you. Will you heal them? People who are struggling with cancer or constant 16:25 disease in their body or whatever it might be, Lord, we know that you're greater than all of these things. So if it is your will, will you heal them even today? Pray for those who are grieving, experiencing the loss of relationship or 16:36 loved ones. Will you comfort them? Thank you that we can receive all comfort. You are the God of all comfort and you've sent the comforter to bring us strength even through our trials and have hope in the midst of whatever we might go 16:49 through. We thank you for that. Thank you for our earthly jobs, Lord. We don't look to what's in the bank account or the job security or the what the market looks like, Lord. Our eyes are on you. You own the cattle on a 16:59 thousand hills. You are our father. You are our provider. I forgive us, Lord, for any confidence we may have put in our own ability or how hard we've worked even though we we believe we shall continue to work hard, Lord. Our eyes are on you. 17:13 May we trust on you only, trust in you only. Thank you. Thank you, Father. We believe you've heard this prayer, not just mine, but the prayer of every believing heart that has prayed, lifted their hearts up to you this morning. I 17:24 pray for any who came here with even a one burden. Even one burden, Lord, that they leave here without any of them. You You said, "Cast your burdens upon the Lord, for He cares for you." You care for us. So, today, together, Lord, 17:37 we lay our burdens at your feet, refusing to ever pick them up again, so we'll never walk in anxiety or worry for another moment. Whatever the burden might be, Lord Jesus, we lay it at your feet. You care for us. Thank you. Thank 17:51 you for the comfort and the hope we have in that. Thank you in Jesus' name. Amen. Brothers and sisters, God has called us to a life that's hidden. I'd like to skip this next song and go to the next one. I'm going to read the words for this 18:06 this next hymn. You may be familiar with it. It's over 100 years old, so you should know it. Little is much when God is in it. >> [music] >> So much of the world is vying, is trying for big things, for success [music] and fame. 18:23 And many of you may feel like, "I wonder what my place is on this earth." I read biographies of people who did great things for God, [music] but you know what challenges me about the ones that truly lived a life that was meaningful. 18:35 They didn't set out to do some great thing. They simply set out to obey God. To be filled with His Holy Spirit and follow His leading and live a life that was pleasing for Him [music] in whatever circle God drew around them. 18:48 And as they were faithful in that small circle, God increased their circle. Be faithful in the little that God has placed in front of you, brother and sister. There's a line here that's been ringing through my mind for the last few 18:59 weeks. It's the last line of that chorus. There's a crown. There's a crown that has your name on it. It's not somebody else's crown. It's the life that God has called and a work that He has placed for you here on this earth. There's a crown and you can 19:15 win it. Oh, that you will get a hold of that. Young people, children, there's a crown that Jesus planned that he planned before the foundations of the world to place on your head. No matter what the outward life looks like here on this earth. There's a crown 19:30 and you can win it if you go in Jesus' name. And so in the harvest, first verse, field now ripen, there's a work for every one of us. It's not just for the elders or the preachers or the Sunday school teachers or the praise 19:42 leaders. There's a work for every one of us to do. Listen, the voice of God is calling to the harvest. It's calling you. Picture him calling you by name saying, "Santosh." Put your name there. I'm calling you for the work. 19:58 In the verse two, the mad rush of the Broadway and the hurry and the strife and the people you meet here on this earth in your classrooms, on the on the soccer fields, or wherever it might be, tell of Jesus' love and mercy. 20:10 Give them the word of life. And there's a place, verse three, that you are called to labor. Maybe it's in front of a a pile of laundry or or dishes or the stove where you're cooking a meal or homeschooling your children or going to 20:23 school every day or going to a work to a [music] job that seems stressful and meaningless at times. Does it seem small and little known? It is great if God is in [music] it. This is the essence of this hymn. Whatever the Lord has placed in front of 20:37 you today and this week, let God fill it and that will make it big. That will make it important. That will [music] make it eternal. It is great if God is in it and he'll not forget his own. Maybe you're struggling through pain 20:51 [music] in your body. Are you set aside from service? Body is worn out from toil and care? You can still be in the battle in the sacred place of prayer. >> [music] >> That's perhaps the greatest battlefield of all in the last verse. 21:05 When the conflict here is ended and our race on earth is run, >> [music] >> he will say, if we are faithful, "Welcome home, my child. Well done." And so, this week, in whatever you face, set that joy before you. Jesus said it 21:20 said about Jesus that he ran the race setting for the joy set before him. There's a joy that's set before you, brother, sister, children, hearing the words of your father say, "Welcome home, my child. [music] Well done." It will be worth it all. 21:36 >> Little is much when God is in it. >> [singing and music] >> Labor not for wealth [singing] or fame. >> [music] >> There's a crown and you can win it >> [music] [singing] 21:54 >> if you go in Jesus' name. In the harvest field of my [singing] land, there's a work for all to [music] do. Hark the voice [singing] 22:12 of God, it's calling >> [music] >> to the harvest, calling you. Little is much when [music] God is in it. Labor not for [music and singing] wealth or fame. There's a crown 22:30 and you [music] can win it if you [singing] go in Jesus' name. >> [music] >> In [singing] the mad rush of the Broadway, in the [singing] hurry [music] and the strife, 22:48 tell of Jesus' love and [singing] mercy, >> [music] >> give to them the word of life. Little is [singing] much when God [music] is in it. Labor not for wealth or fame. >> [music] >> There's a crown 23:08 and you can [singing] win it >> [music] >> if you go in Jesus' [singing] name. Does the place you're called [music and singing] to labor seem so small and little known? It is [singing] great 23:27 if God is in it and He'll not [music] forget [singing] His own. Little is much when God [music and singing] is in it. Labor not for wealth or fame. There's a crown >> [singing] 23:45 >> and you can win it [music] if if you go in Jesus' name. [music] Are you laid aside [singing] from service, body >> [music] >> worn from toil and care? [singing] You can still 24:04 >> [music] >> be in the battle in the sacred >> [music] >> place of [singing] prayer. Little is much when God >> [music] >> is in it. Labor not for wealth or fame. There's a [singing and music] crown 24:23 and you can win it if you go >> [music] >> in Jesus' [singing] name. When [music] the conflict >> [singing] >> here is ended >> [music] >> and our race on earth is run, >> [singing] 24:42 >> He will say if we are faithful, "Welcome home, >> [singing and music] >> my child well done." Little is much >> [music] >> when God is in it. Labor [singing] not for wealth or fame. [music] 25:00 There's [singing] a crown and you can win it if [singing and music] you go in Jesus' name. >> Little. >> Little is much when God [singing] is in it. >> [music] >> Labor not for [singing] wealth or fame. 25:19 There's a crown and you can [music] win >> Little is much. >> if you go [singing] in Jesus' [music] name. >> [music] >> Hidden in God [singing] 25:37 is our life with [music] Christ. In beauty [singing] it grows to His grace. Planted [singing and music] by faith into Jesus' death, >> [music] >> through prayer [singing] it shines forth all 25:56 I crave. >> [music] >> Always [singing] His death is at work in me, resisting all sin [music and singing] that it findeth there. On this sure way [music and singing] I 26:14 go on with Him. By power [singing] He gives me through [music] prayer. Cunningly Satan [music and singing] sows thoughts of doubt to lead the unwary astray. 26:33 >> [music] >> Whispers, excuses, and [singing] unbelief to keep them [music] from going faith's way. Yet the great work [singing] God is doing [music] now with more [singing] and more 26:53 clarity, comes [music] to sight. Therefore, [singing] O soul who loves Jesus so, >> [music] >> by faith [singing] resist Satan with might. >> [music] 27:08 >> O what a wonderful life this is, united [singing] in Jesus, [music] God's Son. All of us partake [music] of [singing] the same new mind, which leads through His death to 27:27 be [music and singing] one. Blessed and great is this mystery [music] revealed within all who [singing] its truth [music] believe. Only the babes [music] and the contrite [singing] 27:45 ones are able its truth to [singing and music] receive. Jesus is choosing Himself [music and singing] a bride. He forms her to be just [music] like Him. Clothed [singing] in fine linen, so pure 28:07 and [music] white, her beauty shines forth from within. Singing with joy o'er her treasure [music] new, her life in the Spirit breaks forth [music and singing] in power. 28:25 Fixing her vision on hidden things, brings [music] forth [singing] from her Bridegroom, He shall. >> [music] [music] >> More about [singing] Jesus would 28:46 I know, >> [music] >> more of His grace to >> [singing] >> others show. >> [music] >> More of His saving >> [singing] >> fullness see, >> [music] >> more of His love who died for me.
