“Lean Not!”
GREETINGS FROM THE TEMPLE …
“Lean Not!”
Our Pastor, Rev. Victor S. Brice, has been teaching a series on: “The Lord Is Faithful!”.
“But the Lord is faithful, and he will strengthen you and protect you from the evil one.” – 2 Thessalonians 3:3 (NIV).
“He will not leave you hanging.” – Pastor Victor S. Brice
When our Pastor preaches – teaches – Word, it is meant for us to move forward and act on the Word. It is meant for us to carry the Word with us throughout the week.
Do you find yourself listening to the Word at church on Sunday and leaving the Word there when you leave church? If your answer is yes – then you have work to do!
The Holy Spirit speaks through our Pastor. It behooves us to listen and act on the Word. Act on the Message you receive. Sometimes you may need clarification on the Message given, turn to your Bibles and search Scripture. Get in the habit of searching Scripture that relates to the Scriptures given during worship service or Bible study. (Google is a wonderful thing. Google the Scripture given, and it will give you that Scripture plus other Scriptures relating to it.)
Read – meditate – search Scripture! This is what we must do during the week prior to our Sunday morning Worship Service. This will prepare you to receive the Word (the Message) that our Pastor has for Sunday, and for Bible study. Receive It – Believe It!
Pastor Brice taught that God’s faithfulness was in His Person – His Promises – and His Performances. Our faithful, dependable, God will always come through for us in Character and in Commitment.
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your ow understanding. – ”Proverbs 3:5 (NIV).
God knows what is best for us. This is what it means to “lean not on your own understanding”. Trust in Him – lean on Him. Call to Him – He will answer you, and when He does, follow His Instructions. Let Him be your Power and your Strength during your weakness. Let Him be your Way when you are lost and can’t seem to get back on tract. Let Him take Control when you waver. Your reward (the results) will be beyond measure.
