God is Spirit. We can’t touch Him or see Him unless He shows Himself to us. This can cause a problem as we struggle to comprehend things that are not physical. God knows what we are like. After all, He made us. So, God has dealt with mankind often in physical ways.
If you ask a child what, “amen” means, many will tell you it means, “the end.” It makes sense. After all, most of the time we use the word to close our prayers. In the mind of the child, it’s like we’re telling God that we are done praying. So, what does it really mean?

Sometimes our praises to God can sound more like the general compliment.
“Yeah God! You are awesome! We praise You.”
Those praises are fine, but it’s interesting that most of the time we see praise to God in the Bible, it includes telling of the wonderful things that God has done or who God is.
For some of you, if you look up Matthew 6:13 in your Bible you may not see the doxology, “for Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever and ever.” It just goes from “deliver us from evil” to a statement about forgiving others. So, why isn’t it there?
God never has to say to us, “Sorry, the daily bread is all gone.” He who sent manna from heaven and gave water from a rock and spoke all things into existence can always provide…even more than we ask or imagine.

We pray for our protection. We pray that God would thwart the plans of the evil one. We pray that our father would defend us and hold us forever in His loving arms.
Temptation is all around us every day. You can’t turn on the TV, log onto the internet, or walk out the door without seeing or hearing something that leads us into temptation. Your car isn’t as nice as your neighbor’s. The attractive guy or girl jogs by. Did you hear the latest about that celebrity?
Please join us for a potluck dinner after worship service on July 14, 2019. Invite a friend!
