Coming Events –– This morning we celebrate the Lord’s Supper together. Jesus said, “As often as you do this, do it in remembrance of Me.” Calvary ladies, Tuesday the 9th August, you study is back on. Don’t miss this intimate time to encourage other women in the Lord. Invite a friend along with you and be encouraged in your walk with the Lord. Please continue to pray for the Calvary Chapels serving in war torn Ukraine. You can catch all the latest by connecting to the Calvary Chapel Magazine link on our webpage ccsh.com.au If you have a prayer request written out in our prayer box can you please make sure they are up to date with the matters of prayer – thanks. All the sermon PowerPoint notes on our marriage series have been uploaded on our web page for your assistance. This week when you face a decision about your future, seek God’s will above all else. Make your decision a matter of prayer and ask Him to guide. If you are truly open to God’s will, He will direct you!
Helen’s Heart – Matthew 5:13-16 You are the salt of the earth…you are the light of the world…Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in Heaven. In our hardened society we do have to be discerning about inviting anyone into our home. Our Lord taught us the consequence of not helping the needy when He said, In as much as you have done it not to the least of these, my brethren, you have done it not unto me. The lesson is that He may come to us in many forms and as the salt and the light we can show His love to others. Be a blessing to someone this week!
From the Pastor’s Desk – Major military escalations continue to increase as the U.S. Speaker of the House, Ms Pelosi visited Taiwan. China had made threats to shoot down the plane carrying Ms Pelosi prior to her visit. Now, China has commenced 5 days of military exercise around the seas of Taiwan utilising live ammunition. All these events, along with Russia’s continued invasion of Ukraine show our world is at straining point. The effect of such events worldwide has seen nation after nation, including those in Europe and our own nation Australia, commence massive investment in military spending. Meanwhile the world financially continues to tip toe its way around a recession or possibly another global financial crisis as a result of the of the conflicts and tensions militarily. Throw in a dash of wildfires and floods with extreme temperatures and one might be anxious. However, as followers of Christ, we have nothing to fear or be anxious about. Instead, we need to be seeing each of these outcomes as those predicted by God’s Word as we live in the Last Days, prior to Christ’s soon return. If you find yourself fretting or fearful, I encourage you to turn to God’s Word and see that God told us of these events that would come and that He is in complete control. How wonderful it is, that in spite of the world’s current turmoil, God’s peace remains within our hearts as we know the end of all these things! Be encouraged to take your family through the book of Revelation as a home study and it will be like you are reading todays’ newspaper articles though written many years ago by John on the island of Patmos!
