Greeting Lusaka Community Church,
For those of you that are unable to join us in-person this Sunday, we are glad that you are still partnering with us through this online service. It continues to be encouraging hearing how many people have used this platform to worship together around the globe.
The LCC family has had many members throughout these last twenty years. As many are now living in other places around the globe, we rejoice because we see how God continues to work forth His Kingdom as believers are sent out into new communities.
This week, we are starting a new series but staying in the book of Acts, as we look at the many incredible evangelism stories shared in the book of Acts. May each of us be encouraged and challenged by the Spirit to listen with listening ears to hear how the Holy Spirit is challenging each of us to proclaim the Kingdom of Heaven in our current situations wherever we may be.
To God be all glory, honor and power as we commit this service to Him in Prayer!
Please let us continue with the service with hearts full of thanksgiving and ears alert to the Holy Spirit.
Amen.

Prayer
1 The Lord reigns, let the peoples tremble;
He is enthroned above the cherubim, let the earth shake!
2 The Lord is great in Zion,
And He is exalted above all the peoples.
3 Let them praise Your great and awesome name;
Holy is He.
4 The strength of the King loves justice;
You have established equity;
You have executed justice and righteousness in Jacob.
5 Exalt the Lord our God
And worship at His footstool;
Holy is He.6 Moses and Aaron were among His priests,
And Samuel was among those who called on His name;
They called upon the Lord and He answered them.
7 He spoke to them in the pillar of cloud;
They kept His testimonies
And the statute that He gave them.
8 O Lord our God, You answered them;
You were a forgiving God to them,
And yet an avenger of their evil deeds.
9 Exalt the Lord our God
And worship at His holy hill,
For holy is the Lord our God.- Psalm 99 (NASB)
Praise God for His provision.
Praise Jesus for His intercession.
Praise the Holy Spirit for conviction and guidance.
