worship for March 22, 2020

March 22, 2020 by J-T

Let’s worship our Lord together! Right there in your living follow along and even sing along, read the Scripture, watch the videos, and let’s pray.

Scripture reading from Ephesians 2:1-10.

Once you were dead because of your disobedience and your many sins. You used to live in sin, just like the rest of the world, obeying the devil—the commander of the powers in the unseen world. He is the spirit at work in the hearts of those who refuse to obey God. All of us used to live that way, following the passionate desires and inclinations of our sinful nature. By our very nature we were subject to God’s anger, just like everyone else.

But God is so rich in mercy, and he loved us so much, that even though we were dead because of our sins, he gave us life when he raised Christ from the dead. (It is only by God’s grace that you have been saved!) For he raised us from the dead along with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ Jesus. So God can point to us in all future ages as examples of the incredible wealth of his grace and kindness toward us, as shown in all he has done for us who are united with Christ Jesus.

God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it. For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.

Our God is great and greatly to be praised!

As you spend time praying this morning, pray for our nation and for our health care providers to find a way to stop this coronavirus. Pray for those in our church who work in the health care field and are therefore more likely to be exposed to this virus.

Pray for Adam and his back pain. It is preventing him from working. Pray for Quiana and Micah as well.

Pray for Alissa’s cousin Molly and her husband John as they both have the virus and are battling it. (They live in Georgia.)

Pray for Bruce as he works to get healthy while in a medical rehab facility.

Pray for Jonathan and Noella Kleis in Italy. They are still locked down at home with limited ability to leave their home.

Pray for Kizombo and Wababili Kalambula in the Democratic Republic of Congo as they continue to serve the Lord through the churches they’ve planted and the school they run and the numerous other ministries they’ve started and run.

Pray for the church’s faithfulness in this difficult time. Pray for opportunities to share the good news of Jesus with those around you, offering a reason for the hope that is within you.
