Isaiah 26-27

Proverbs 12

Sunday Sermon

The sermon on Sunday, December 15, is on Ephesians 2:1-10. This will be our 3rd time through this passage during Advent. Read it again as a family - perhaps memorize it – to prepare your heart for the preaching of God’s Word.

PRAY

Take some time to commune with the Lord in prayer using part of The Lord's Prayer as a model.

"FOR YOURS IS THE KINGDOM, AND THE POWER, AND THE GLORY FOREVER, AMEN." - Acknowledge God's sovereign reign over all things and thank him for his everlasting love and goodness.
