Weekend Review

The presence of God was very powerful in the Sunday afternoon service in Radcliff, KY. We celebrated Communion as we were reminded of the price that was paid for our sins. As I wrote a few days ago, we must never forget the willingness of Christ to die in our place. He was willing to give His life as a ransom for our sins, He died that we might live. I am glad that I can celebrate the living King who is truly concerned about my spiritual well-being. Don't you think that it is time for the people of God to recognize God in all that we do and say? We must become bold in the declaration of our love for Him and we must be prepared to live a life of radical commitment to Christ. In a world of selfishness and self absorption we are given the opportunity to worship someone greater than us. I am glad that I am choosing to lift my voice and declare the greatness of God. Several people responded to the invitation for prayer at the close of the sermon. I am always blessed and encouraged when people choose to respond to the Spirit and Word of God and allow the Spirit to speak peace and life into their individual circumstances. All of us face those moments in which we need a special visitation of the grace and mercy of God. God loves us enough that He desires to strengthen us at those times of challenge and difficulty. He allows us to exchange our weaknesses for His strength and might. Ephesians 1:19, "and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power." (NKJV)
