Worship Celebration

I'm finally home from worshiping Jesus Christ this morning, no our service didn't just get out, i've just been hanging out with friends. But as always our service this morning was rocking. We sang one of my favorate hymns of all time "Jesus, Name Above All Names", then phillip weems sang a song that he wrote called "At the Gate of Beautiful" which is inspired from Acts 3 when peter, in the name of Jesus, healed a crippled begger. Just as that begger we are crippled, although we are spirtually crippled. And just as the begger we do not need silver or gold but we need the blood of Jesus.
Then Bro. Mike preached on the crucifixion from John 19, and im amazed at how the old testament and the new testament fit together so perfect. In Psalm 22: 14-18
"i am poured out like water, and al my bones are out of joint; my heart is like wax it is melted within my breast; my strength is dried up like a potsherd, and my tongue sticks to my jaws; you lay me in the dust of death. dogs encompass me; a company of evildoers encircles me; they have pierced my hands and feet -- i can count all my bones -- they stare and gloat over me; they divide my garments among them, and for my clothing they cast lots."

David wrote this around 1000 years before Jesus was crucified and it is exactly what happened to Jesus. Another amazing fact about this psalm that i didn't know until this morning was that David never saw a crucifixion in his life, they practice wasn't started untill about 600 years after he wrote this. that is amazing and proves God's power to reveal this to david in such a way to where people who read this could see exactly what would happen to Jesus.

Well that all i got about this morning, it was God filled as always.

  1. Hey, it's Joy Beth. I just read this and it's pretty fantastic. I had no idea about David not even understanding what he was writing about the crucifixion-- God's inspiration must have been pretty amazing.

    Anyways, good blog. Like the name ;)
