House of the Lord

We worship the God who was

We worship the God who is
We worship the God who evermore will be


He opened the prison doors

He parted the raging sea
My God, He holds the victory


There’s joy in the house of the Lord
There’s joy in the house of the Lord today
And we won’t be quiet, we shout out Your praise


There’s joy in the house of the Lord

Our God is surely in this place
And we won’t be quiet, we shout out Your praise


We sing to the God who heals

We sing to the God who saves
We sing to the God who always makes a way


'Cause He hung upon that Cross

Then He rose up from the grave
My God’s still rolling stones away

There’s joy in the house of the Lord
There’s joy in the house of the Lord today
And we won’t be quiet, we shout out Your praise


There’s joy in the house of the Lord

Our God is surely in this place
And we won’t be quiet, we shout out Your praise


We were the beggars,

now we're royalty
We were the prisoners,

now we're running free
We are forgiven, accepted,

redeemed by His grace
Let the house of the Lord sing praise


'Cause we were the beggars,

now we're royalty
We were the prisoners,

now we're running free
We are forgiven, accepted,

redeemed by His grace
Let the house of the Lord sing praise

There’s joy in the house of the Lord today
And we won’t be quiet, we shout out Your praise


There’s joy in the house of the Lord

Our God is surely in this place
And we won’t be quiet,

Build My Life

Worthy of every song We could ever sing
Worthy of all the praise We could ever bring
Worthy of every breath we could ever breathe

Holy, there is no one like You,

There is none beside You
Open my eyes in wonder,
Show me who You are and fill me,

With Your heart and lead me
In Your love to those around me

 

Jesus, the name above every other name
Jesus, the only One who could ever save
Worthy of every breath we could ever breathe
We live for you Oh we live for You

There is none beside You
Open my eyes in wonder,
Show me who You are and fill me,

With Your heart and lead me
In Your love to those around me

It is a firm foundation
I will put my trust in You alone,

And I will not be shaken
I will build my life upon Your love,

It is a firm foundation
I will put my trust in You alone,

And I will not be shaken

Today's Teaching

Matthew 1:18-25

Now this is how Jesus the Messiah was born. His mother, Mary was engaged to be married to Joseph. But while she was still a virgin, she became pregnant by the Holy Spirit. Joseph her fiancé,  being a just man, decided to break the engagement quietly, so as not to disgrace her publicly.

 

As he considered this, he fell asleep and an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, “Joseph son of David,” the angel said, “do not be afraid to go ahead with your marriage to Mary. For the child within her has been conceived by the Holy Spirit. And she will have a son, and you are to name him Jesus for he will save his people from their sins.”

 

All of this happened to fulfill  the Lord’s message  through his prophet: “Look!  The virgin will conceive a child!, She will give birth to a son, and he will be called Immanuel (meaning, God is with us).”

 

When Joseph woke up, he did what the angel of the Lord commanded. He brought Mary home to be  his wife, but she remained a virgin until her son was born.  And Joseph named him Jesus.

 

Isaiah 43:1-4

But now, O Israel, the Lord who created you says:  “Do not be afraid, for I have ransomed you.  I have called you by name; you are mine.  When you go through deep waters and great trouble, I will be with you. When you go through rivers of difficulty, you will not drown!  When you walk through the fire of oppression, you will not be burned up; the flames will not consume you.  For I am the Lord, your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior.  You are precious to me. You are honored, and  I love you.
