The Saturday Song – Strength of My Life

 
“God is our refuge and strength, an
ever-present help in trouble.”
Psalm 46:1
 
Heavenly Father, no matter what’s happened the past year, may you renew and strengthen us through your Spirit’s resurrection power, and be our light for the coming year. In Jesus’ name, amen.
 
Happy New Year!

The Saturday Song – A Special “O Holy Night”

“For God so loved the world that He gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish
but have eternal life.”
John 3:16

Amidst the twinkling lights, baking, and shopping, I pray we follow our Father’s example and give the most important gift: love.  I hope this blesses you as much as it did me.  Merry Christmas.

 

The Saturday Song – Forever

 
Is there anything more worthy of giving thanks than for our God and Father who has declared His love through the sacrifice of His only Son, and tells us that nothing, nothing, will ever come between us and His love? 
 
He is love, all He does comes from love, and His love will endure forever.  For that, Lord, we offer you our hearts full of gratitude, forever.

The Saturday Song – Light the Fire Again

These are the words of the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the ruler of God’s creation. ‘I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were either one or the other! So, because you are lukewarm—neither hot nor cold—I am about to spit you out of my mouth. You say, ‘I am rich; I have acquired wealth and do not need a thing.’ But you do not realize that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind and naked. I counsel you to buy from me gold refined in the fire, so you can become rich; and white clothes to wear, so you can cover your shameful nakedness; and salve to put on your eyes, so you can see.'”
Revelation 3:14-18

Be aware! God’s Word says that in the end times, “because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold, but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved.” Matthew 24:12

The moment we realize our faith has become cold, or worse, lukewarm, we have a remedy in Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit is able to light the fire in our hearts again if we’ll only call on Him.


Light the Fire Again

by Brian Doerksen

Don’t let our love grow cold
I’m calling out light the fire again
Don’t let our vision die
I’m calling out light the fire again

You know my heart my deeds 
I’m calling out light the fire again
I need Your discipline
I’m calling out light the fire again

I am here to buy gold refined in the fire
Naked and poor
Wretched and blind I come
Clothe me in white
So I won’t be ashamed
Lord light the fire again

Light the fire again, yes
Oh yeah

Don’t let our love grow cold 
I’m calling out light the fire again
Don’t let our vision die
I’m calling out light the fire again

You know my heart my deeds
I’m calling out light the fire again
I need Your discipline
I’m calling out light the fire again

I am here to buy gold refined in the fire
Naked and poor
Wretched and blind I come
Clothe me in white
So I won’t be ashamed
Lord light the fire again

Lord light the fire again
Lord light the fire again
Lord light the fire again
Lord light the fire again

The Saturday Song – There Will Be a Day

“And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain,
for the former things have passed away.”

Revelation 21:4

 

Heavenly Father, help us walk through the hard things in this life with the hope you’ve given us for the next. In Christ’s name we pray, amen.
