Daniel 12
Good evening. Welcome to the recordings from today’s service. Today we had a short word from visiting friends, thoughts from Jeremiah 1 regarding the current situation in the world. Also our message today was from Dr Annang, concluding the wonderful series looking at the Book of Daniel.
Firstly, here is a worship video of Yet Not I But Christ in Me, from City Alight.
Every blessing, Andy.
The Promised Land – Entering the Land (1)
Good morning. Welcome to the recordings from our service on Sunday 6th September. Firstly there is a worship video of Robin Mark singing Highly Exalted, and that is followed by the service introduction and our next study in The Promised Land series, Taking the Land.
God bless you, Andy.
Service introduction from Andy, reading Psalms 42 and 43:
And here is the message, Entering the Land (part 1):
Joshua 1: After the death of Moses the servant of the Lord, it came to pass that the Lord spoke to Joshua the son of Nun, Moses’ assistant, saying: 2 “Moses My servant is dead. Now therefore, arise, go over this Jordan, you and all this people, to the land which I am giving to them—the children of Israel. 3 Every place that the sole of your foot will tread upon I have given you, as I said to Moses. 4 From the wilderness and this Lebanon as far as the great river, the River Euphrates, all the land of the Hittites, and to the Great Sea toward the going down of the sun, shall be your territory. 5 No man shall be able to stand before you all the days of your life; as I was with Moses, so I will be with you. I will not leave you nor forsake you. 6 Be strong and of good courage, for to this people you shall [a]divide as an inheritance the land which I swore to their fathers to give them. 7 Only be strong and very courageous, that you may observe to do according to all the law which Moses My servant commanded you; do not turn from it to the right hand or to the left, that you may [b]prosper wherever you go. 8 This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you[c] shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success. 9 Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”

Stirring Up the Saints
Good evening. Once again welcome to our online service from this morning in our church fellowship. Today we have the introduction from myself, a testimony from Ivan and Kristie and the Word from Matt Petley.
Firstly, here is a worship video from Matt Redman, Endless Halleluyah:
Service introduction from Andy:
Testimony from Ivan and Kristie:
Today’s message from Matt Petley:
2 Peter 3: 1-9 Beloved, I now write to you this second epistle (in both of which I stir up your pure minds by way of reminder), 2 that you may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of [a]us, the apostles of the Lord and Savior, 3 knowing this first: that scoffers will come in the last days, walking according to their own lusts, 4 and saying, “Where is the promise of His coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of creation.” 5 For this they willfully forget: that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of water and in the water, 6 by which the world that then existed perished, being flooded with water. 7 But the heavens and the earth which are now preserved by the same word, are reserved for fire until the day of judgment and [b]perdition of ungodly men.
8 But, beloved, do not forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. 9 The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward [c]us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.

The Promised Land – Fulfilment
Good evening. Our services continue despite the restrictions placed upon churches by the Government regulations. It is a now a long time since the lockdown was first imposed, at the time the reasons given were to protect the NHS and save lives. Now however, the circumstances of the virus have changed dramatically since the peak of infections in mid-March (before the lockdown was imposed), with a very low risk of infection in our area. Jesus taught us to ‘Render unto Caesar that which is Caesar’s, and to God that which is God’s’, Matthew 22:21. That is what we as a church are seeking to do. Read the rest of this entry »

Galatians 4
Good evening. The Lord continues to bless us in our restarted Sunday services despite the restrictions churches have to operate under at the moment.
John brought the Word to us today, from Galatians 4, and we had two testimonies from Tony (friend of Jeff and Margaret) and Steve. Both of those recordings are below. Firstly, there are a couple of worship videos, Ron Kenoly singing I will come and bow down, a song I shared this morning in our time of thanksgiving, and secondly, another recent video repeated to help us learn it – Graham Kendrick’s Holy Overshadowing.
God bless you,
Spiritual Patience (God’s Waiting Room)
Good evening. This morning’s service was our second service following the lockdown and we were very blessed to be able to meet together to share, to worship the Lord and hear His Word ministered. Below are the audios of two testimonies, from Nathan and Ruth, and from the ministry of the Word by Rob.
Before that, as is our custom now, is a worship video. Again it’s a song we’ve featured previously, repeated here as it’s another song we want to incorporate into our worship times in the near (dv) future.
The Lord bless you,
Church Restart
Good evening. This morning we held our first service since the lockdown began in March, and it was wonderful being able to gather as a congregation again, albeit only in part. Despite the restrictions on numbers able to gather and not being able to have congregational singing, we enjoyed fellowship, sharing and communion together.
Below is a recording of thoughts from John and myself. I will post a recording of other testimonies on the Celebration Social Whatsapp group. Firstly, here is a video of Paul Wilbur, I Enter the Holy of Holies.
God bless, Andy.
Thoughts from John and Andy:
We started the service by declaring the goodness of the Lord by reading Psalm 103:
Bless the Lord, O my soul;
And all that is within me, bless His holy name!
2 Bless the Lord, O my soul,
And forget not all His benefits:
3 Who forgives all your iniquities,
Who heals all your diseases,
4 Who redeems your life from destruction,
Who crowns you with lovingkindness and tender mercies,
5 Who satisfies your mouth with good things,
So that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.
6 The Lord executes righteousness
And justice for all who are oppressed.
7 He made known His ways to Moses,
His acts to the children of Israel.
8 The Lord is merciful and gracious,
Slow to anger, and abounding in mercy.
9 He will not always strive with us,
Nor will He keep His anger forever.
10 He has not dealt with us according to our sins,
Nor punished us according to our iniquities.
11 For as the heavens are high above the earth,
So great is His mercy toward those who fear Him;
12 As far as the east is from the west,
So far has He removed our transgressions from us.
13 As a father pities his children,
So the Lord pities those who fear Him.
14 For He knows our frame;
He remembers that we are dust.
15 As for man, his days are like grass;
As a flower of the field, so he flourishes.
16 For the wind passes over it, and it is gone,
And its place remembers it no more.
17 But the mercy of the Lord is from everlasting to everlasting
On those who fear Him,
And His righteousness to children’s children,
18 To such as keep His covenant,
And to those who remember His commandments to do them.
19 The Lord has established His throne in heaven,
And His kingdom rules over all.
20 Bless the Lord, you His angels,
Who excel in strength, who do His word,
Heeding the voice of His word.
21 Bless the Lord, all you His hosts,
You ministers of His, who do His pleasure.
22 Bless the Lord, all His works,
In all places of His dominion.
Bless the Lord, O my soul!
