A song from my days as a choir boy still thrill my soul at 75. Isaiah 53 and the works of George Frideric Handel's Messiah. I sang much of his work in my teens at St. Matthew's Lutheran Church in Detroit MI. Isaiah 53:4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. 5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. "With his stripes we are healed" is not in the chorus as written, but are a separate chorus in Handel's work. I added it to complete the scripture's message of a suffering Priest and Sacrifice, the Lord, Jesus.

A favorite of mine from Tennessee Ernie Ford's albums, Golden Bells.

Song at beginning: Sapony Creek Players; Prayer Bells of Heaven.St John Chapter 4, The Samaritan woman at the well. The woman was surprised that Jesus had even spoke to her, but she already knew that the Messiah was on the way. How did she and the people of that town find out about the Messiah and of Christ if they had no dealings with the Jews? Jesus speaks of Other Men's Labors, one sows, another reaps.

Judges 6:11 And there came an angel of the Lord, and sat under an oak which was in Ophrah, that pertained unto Joash the Abi–ezrite: and his son Gideon threshed wheat by the winepress, to hide it from the Midianites. 12 And the angel of the Lord appeared unto him, and said unto him, The Lord is with thee, thou mighty man of valour. Several songs included in the last night of our revival meeting. 

Opening song: He's In The House-Death has to Flee.David's three older brothers had seen God move in their lives, but David did not forget what God had done for him.I Samuel 17: 40 And he took his staff in his hand, and chose him five smooth stones out of the brook, and put them in a shepherd’s bag which he had, even in a scrip; and his sling was in his hand: and he drew near to the Philistine.  41 And the Philistine came on and drew near unto David; and the man that bare the shieldwent before him.  42 And when the Philistine looked about, and saw David, he disdained him: for he wasbut a youth, and ruddy, and of a fair countenance.  43 And the Philistine said unto David, Am I a dog, that thou comest to me with staves? And the Philistine cursed David by his gods.  44 And the Philistine said to David, Come to me, and I will give thy flesh unto the fowls of the air, and to the beasts of the field.  45 Then said David to the Philistine, Thou comest to me with a sword, and with a spear, and with a shield: but I come to thee in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom thou hast defied.  46 This day will the Lord deliver thee into mine hand; and I will smite thee, and take thine head from thee; and I will give the carcases of the host of the Philistines this day unto the fowls of the air, and to the wild beasts of the earth; that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel.  47 And all this assembly shall know that the Lord saveth not with sword and spear: for the battle is the Lord’s, and he will give you into our hands.  48 And it came to pass, when the Philistine arose, and came and drew nigh to meet David, that David hasted, and ran toward the army to meet the Philistine.  49 And David put his hand in his bag, and took thence a stone, and slang it, and smote the Philistine in his forehead, that the stone sunk into his forehead; and he fell upon his face to the earth.  50 So David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and with a stone, and smote the Philistine, and slew him; but there was no sword in the hand of David. As it turns out Goliath had never even drawn his sword against David, it was still in it's sheath. We face different giants today, but the Lord will still deliver us.

Peter is delivered from prison. Let me tell you... Acts 12:  7 And behold, an angel of the Lord stood there, and a light shined in the prison room; and striking the side of Peter, he roused him saying, "Arise quickly!" And his chains fell away from his hands.  8 And the angel said to him, "Gird yourself and put on your sandals"; and he did so. And he said to him, "Put on your cloak and follow me."  9 And going out, he was following him, and did not know that the thing taking place by the angel was real, but he was thinking that he was seeing a vision.  10 And going though the first and the second guard posts, they came to the iron gate which leads into the city, which was opened to them of its own accord; and going out, they went forward one street, and immediately the angel withdrew from him.  11 And Peter, having come to himself, said, "Now I know truly that the Lord has sent forth His angel, and has delivered me from the hand of Herod and from all the expectation of the Jews."  12 And realizing this, he came to the house of Mary, the mother of John whose surname was Mark, where a considerable number were gathered together and were praying.  13 And when Peter knocked at the door of the gate, a servant girl came to answer, named Rhoda.  14 When she recognized Peter's voice, because of her gladness she did not open the gate, but running in, she announced that Peter stood at the gate.  15 But they said to her, "You are mad!" Yet she kept insisting that it was so. So they said, "It is his angel."  16 But Peter was continuing knocking; and opening the door they saw him, and were astounded.  17 And motioning to them with his hand to be silent, he related to them how the Lord had led him out of the prison. And he said, "Tell these things to James and to the brothers." And going out, he went to another place.

Psalms 23:4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. We miss so much if all we do is run everywhere. With God's comfort we need to learn to walk, so He can talk to us and share with us things we need to learn in this life.

First night of our revival 01/24/2022. The Lewis family sings, Jesus Never FailsBrother Roberts Sermon on II Kings 4:18 ¶And when the child was grown, it fell on a day, that he went out to his father to the reapers.  19 And he said unto his father, My head, my head. And he said to a lad, Carry him to his mother.  20 And when he had taken him, and brought him to his mother, he sat on her knees till noon, and then died.  21 And she went up, and laid him on the bed of the man of God, and shut the door upon him, and went out.  22 And she called unto her husband, and said, Send me, I pray thee, one of the young men, and one of the asses, that I may run to the man of God, and come again.  23 And he said, Wherefore wilt thou go to him to day? it is neither new moon, nor sabbath. And she said, It shall be well.  24 Then she saddled an ass, and said to her servant, Drive, and go forward; slack not thyriding for me, except I bid thee.  25 So she went and came unto the man of God to mount Carmel. And it came to pass, when the man of God saw her afar off, that he said to Gehazi his servant, Behold, yonder is that Shunammite:  26 Run now, I pray thee, to meet her, and say unto her, Is it well with thee? is it well with thy husband? is it well with the child? And she answered, It is well.

Song: Jesus is Moving in this Place; Sung by the Lewis Family. St. John Chapter 5 : 19 Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise.  20  For the Father loveth the Son, and sheweth him all things that himself doeth: and he will shew him greater works than these, that ye may marvel.  21  For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and quickeneth them; even so the Son quickeneth whom he will.  22  For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son:  23  That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him.  24  Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life. Amazing Grace. I attempt to explain why God would come to say, "Let us make man", Already knowing what it would cost to later redeem him.
