Prepare for Worship (24 Dec 2017)
Call to Worship : Isaiah 9:2-7
"The people who walk in darkness will see a great light.
For those who live in a land of deep darkness, a light will shine.
You will enlarge the nation of Israel, and its people will rejoice.
They will rejoice before you as people rejoice at the harvest...
For you will break the yoke of their slavery
and lift the heavy burden from their shoulders.
The boots of the warrior and the uniforms bloodstained by war
will all be burned. They will be fuel for the fire.
For a child is born to us, a son is given to us.
The government will rest on his shoulders.
And he will be called: Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace
His government and its peace will never end.
He will rule with fairness and justice from the throne of his ancestor David for all eternity.
The passionate commitment of the Lord of Heaven’s Armies will make this happen!
Amidst all the festivities of the Christmas season, as you prepare to gather with God's people this Sunday, take a moment to consider the difference that light makes in your world today and ask if there is any part of your world that needs the light of Christ to shine and allow Him to rule in your heart as the rightful, God's anointed KIng.
