HEY GOP!
How has your week been? Hope you were at prayer meeting today!! Here's roughly what Shaunster had shared today =)
He talked about how prayer was like the exchange zone during a relay race. We have to be warmed up and ready to receive the baton. The runner cannot be too fast neither can the receiver be too slow.
[Psalm 57:7-8]
1) I'm ready!
-being ready is not preparing ourselves
-being ready means that we have to already be prepared
2) Raise a tune
-we are not a quiet religion
-we have to sing our praises out loud
3) Wake up!
4) Sleepyhead sun/the dawn
-we must have discipline in everything we do!
[Psalm 51:11]
David was not concerned about his riches and wealth but the presence of God and the Holy Spirit!! The presence of God shapes thoughts and attitude.
We are called to shape the thoughts and attitudes of other. People without the presence of God is pointless!
The Holy Spirit on the other hand is the power and life of everything! People without the Holy Spirit is dead because He brings life into us.
Imagine someone giving you a million dollars for no reason. It is the transaction of something undeserved like God's love and the death of Jesus on the cross. Keep in that period of time at every prayer meeting and stay in that attitude of worship.
[Amos 5:21]
we are here for God and nothing else! When was the last time we did anything just for God?
So how is all this related? Prayer is positioning ourselves! Dont miss the mark people! We are called to be the light of the world, the direction for others. Can we lead others if we hide our lamp? We have to bring people to us through the movement of out light! Which is our relationship with God!
Prayer positions ourselves so that we can have oppurtunities! Every oppurtunity should be taken and not missed to being moments. Moments lead to momentum and soon it brings movement! The movement of light! We have to have confidence in our faith and be faithful in our prayer if we want to be able to move and reach out to others!
So enjoy yourself for the rest of the week GOP but do not forget what we're focusing on. Dont miss the mark, grab hold of every oppurtunity. Prayer is important so never stop talking to God. Take care. Loves.
A Generation called to be deployed into ministry,
building the house of God.
Our Generation, Our Responsibility

Ushers
Ushers, like how the name suggest we usher people, welcoming them into the house of God. We tend to be the very first person you see before you enter the service hall.
Here in ushers ministry,we hope to bring joy to all who comes in, to give them a smile in the worst day and a warm hand shake with much love.
To put it simply,we want carry God's joy and love and spread it to everyone else.
Other than that, we provide direction to all the people who are new and lost or ensure that they are going the right place for service. This helps to ensure that they feel a sense of belonging and not helpless, wanted and not ignored.
And of course,passing the offering bags and giving out materials for sermon or events are also part of our wonderful ushering job. :)

Sound
Having an almighty God gracing our service every week and the bonus of a wonderful music team on the frontline to usher us through the gates of praise, youth service is often the place anyone would want to be at on a Saturday evening.
While the music team's role is to usher the congregation through the gates of praise, the sound ministry is hidden behind the scenes and is responsible for delivering the message and the music with clarity to the congregation.
Your job is mainly to provide and help out in the technical areas throughout the service.
