Psalm 40 |
Happy are they that trust in the Lord!
Your ways are wonderful! I come and do you will!
I proclaim you and your love in the great congregation.
You show mercy and help me.

2 Peter 2 |
They who do not believe are sinners;
They try to turn us into their ways rather than Jesus;
They wallow in their own mud.

Matthew 11 | Background
John was in prison and sent people to ask Jesus if he was the Messiah;
Jesus answered the ministry he was doing by quoting the prophets;
Jesus told them the greatness of John the Baptist and he was the
Forbearer of the Messiah according to scripture.

Stir up your power among us, O God and give us your Holy Spirit

now and forever. Amen.

For Mission
O God, you have made of one blood all the peoples of the
earth, and sent your blessed Son to preach peace to those
who are far off and to those who are near: Grant that people
everywhere may seek after you and find you; bring the nations
into your fold; pour out your Spirit upon all flesh, and hasten
the coming of your kingdom; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

May the God of hope fill us with all joy and peace in believing
