Hymn 104:  God is Our Refuge….

The Lord’s Prayer from Luke 11:2-4

Bible Readings:

·     The Journey with Israel:  Exodus 13:17-22; 14:5-9, 13-20; 16:11-15; 19:1-6

·     Journey with the Risen Saviour:  Mark 16:9-20

·     The Journey Today:  Acts 3:18-21

Hymn 34: Walking with Jesus Christ

·        A lot happened to Israel in the first 50 days following the Passover, when they left Egypt, including:

§  They were led by a cloud in the day and a pillar of fire by night, crossed the Red Sea on dry land, were fed by manna from heaven, were given water from a rock, God made a covenant with them to be His peculiar people, and they received the Ten Commandments around the “Day of Pentecost” (50th day)

·     When journeying with Jesus, Easter was at Passover and Whitsuntide at Pentecost

·     Over this period, between the crucifixion and the “coming of the promise”, the Disciples moved from despair to power

·        As we travel from Easter to Whitsuntide let each of us seek to God to prepare us to be worthy of His promise of forgiveness, but also to send us the Power, through Christ and the Holy Ghost, to receive redemption of spirit and soul and body, and be kept alive until the return of Jesus Christ. 

Hymn 96:  Keep Going to the End!

Doxology
