The Trinity

Tonight begins our fourth week of conference ministry. Join us as Pastor Bob Alderman and Pastor Harold Vaughn share God's Word. There are still some rooms open this week and next. Take advantage of the 25% special.

The Trinity

Today we worship HIM -- God, three in One! Here is a wonderful prayer from the book, Valley of Vision -- Prayers of the Puritans

Three in One, One in Three, God of my Salvation,
Heavenly Father, blessed Son, eternal Spirit,
I adore Thee as one Being, one Essence, one God in three distinct Persons,
for bringing sinners to thy knowledge and to thy kingdom,

O Father, thou hast loved me and sent Jesus to redeem me;

O Jesus, thou hast loved me and assumed my nature,
shed thine own blood to wash away my sins, wrought righteousness to cover my unworthiness;

O Holy Spirit, thou hast loved me and entered my heart, implanted there eternal life,
revealed to me the glories of Jesus.

Three Persons and one God, I bless and praise thee,
for love so unmerited, so unspeakable,
so wondrous, so mighty to save the lost and raise them to glory.

O Father, I thank thee that in the fullness of grace thou hast given me to Jesus, to be His sheep, jewel, portion;
O Jesus, I thank Thee that in fullness of grace thou has accepted, espoused, bound me;
O Holy Spirit, I thank Thee that in fullness of grace thou hast
exhibited Jesus as my salvation,
implanted faith within me,
subdued my stubborn heart,
made me one with him forever.

O Father, thou art enthroned to hear my prayers,
O Jesus, thy hand is outstretched to take my petitions,
O Holy Spirit, thou art willing to help my infirmities, to show me thy MY need,
to supply words, to pray within me,
to strengthen me that I faint not in supplication.

O Triune God, who commandeth the universe, thou hast commanded me to ask for those
things that concern thy kingdom and my soul.
Let me live and pray as one baptized into the threefold Name. Amen

Digging Deeper: Proverbs 15; Psalms 91-93; Romans 15:1-13

Dig This Quote: When you slight this or that person, though gracious; that is, look over them, and shun them for their poverty in this world, and choose rather to have converse with others, that possibly are less gracious, because of their greatness in this world, you deal with the sin of pride. John Bunyan

Determined Digging: Level 1: Isaiah 55:8-9; Level 2: Psalm 103: 20-22

Determined Praying: God is more willing to work than many of us are to pray!
