THE APOSTLES’ CREED

PRAYER/SCRIPTURE READING: [Revelation 22:1-5 CSB] [1] Then he showed me the river of the water of life, clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb [2] down the middle of the city's main street. The tree of life was on each side of the river, bearing twelve kinds of fruit, producing its fruit every month. The leaves of the tree are for healing the nations, [3] and there will no longer be any curse. The throne of God and of the Lamb will be in the city, and his servants will worship him. [4] They will see his face, and his name will be on their foreheads. [5] Night will be no more; people will not need the light of a lamp or the light of the sun, because the Lord God will give them light, and they will reign forever and ever.

SERMON TEXT: Zechariah 1: 7-17

FEC News & Updates

FIGHTER VERSES:

·     This week’s verse to be memorized: [Romans 8:31-32 ESV] [31] What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? [32] He who did not spare his own Son but gave him up for us all, how will he not also with him graciously give us all things?

· Next week’s verse to be memorized: [Romans 8:33-34 ESV] [33] Who shall bring any charge against God's elect? It is God who justifies. [34] Who is to condemn? Christ Jesus is the one who died--more than that, who was raised--who is at the right hand of God, who indeed is interceding for us.
