Prayer and Fellowship meeting Friday 19th October

It was lovely to see you all this morning. Again, a wonderful time of prayer, songs and the encouragement of God’s word. Welcome back to Chris and well done for staying up to make the meeting…who needs sleep anyway!!

For those who couldn’t make it…we missed you! Here is a summary:

Through Isaiah we see a picture of God’s people (Judah) who are being hounded by Syria and Israel, not to mention the Assyrian colossus. They are oppressed, despondent, hopeless and broken. What they want is a leader who will be more ruthless and violent than their enemies who will wipe the opposition from the face of the earth. What they get is the promise of a baby boy who will become the Prince of Peace. This promise was the only solution to their problem then….and it is the only solution to our problems today.

Isaiah 55: 8 & 9

8 “My thoughts are nothing like your thoughts,” says the Lord.
“And my ways are far beyond anything you could imagine.
9 For just as the heavens are higher than the earth, so my ways are higher than your ways and my thoughts higher than your thoughts.”

God doesn’t always answer our prayers the way we expect Him to or when we think the time is right…but His timing is always perfect and His solutions always faultless. The more we get to know God and focus on Him the more we will be able to trust that His answers are…well…perfect!

We look forward to seeing you at the next meeting which will be on Friday 26th October, 7.30am at Limehouse.

Have a wonderful week.
God bless
Lara

Wonderful prayer and fellowship meeting 12th Oct

Thanks to all who came and participated this morning – I really enjoyed our time together and hope it was as uplifting for you as it was for me! Some very encouraging words were offered and the time of prayer was very moving. For those who couldn’t make it here is a little summary:

Matthew 18:20
Jesus told us: “For where two or three gather together as my followers, I am there among them.”

I for one am guilty of forgetting this or not taking it seriously but it is an amazing promise and I think we all felt God’s presence with us this morning as we shared, listened to a couple of my favourite songs (future suggestions always welcome), read a couple of passages and prayed together.

1 Peter 1:2 “God the Father knew you and chose you long ago, and his Spirit has made you holy. As a result, you have obeyed him and have been cleansed by the blood of Jesus Christ. May God give you more and more grace and peace.”

The songs we listened to have beautiful lyrics and if you want to look them up they are:

Tim Hughes God In my living

Les Buckley Have mercy on me o God of Love

God bless to all
