“WHAT IS HIS NAME?”
Sunday, August 1, 2015
By Rev. Margaret Aranda, MD, Ph.D.
Closing Prayer & Song: Kirstie Whitehand
Scripture References: Randy Smith and Briana Baca
WELCOME!
CHRIST
SAID, “Do not forsake the gathering of yourselves together.”
After nine years in bed myself, and making it to church only to literally
lay down in the pew, the Lord led me to start this Online Service for the
disabled, homebound, teens, and anyone who just can not find a church nearby.
We gather together all around the world.
SCRIPTURE, PRAISE & WORSHIP TO OUR GOD!
Who deserves our adoration and worship?
He
is the one whom God exalted to His right hand as a Prince and a Savior, to
grant repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins. (Ac 5:31)
Who is Our Savior?
For
today in the city of David there has been born for you a Savior, who is Christ
the Lord (Luke 2:11).
And
what is His NAME?
From
the descendants of this man, according to promise, God has brought to Israel a
Savior, Jesus, (Acts 13:23)

Do you
surrender all that you are, all that you do, to Jesus?
But
in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. (1 Peter 3:15a)
And
He died for all, so that they who live might no longer live for themselves, but
for Him who died and rose again on their behalf (2 Corinthians 5:15)
2. “I Surrender”
By
Hillsong Live
What
does this world really have for you? Whom do you follow? Christ or the evil
one? A man cannot have two masters.
“No
one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other,
or he will be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and
wealth.” (Matthew 6:24)
Light
and darkness cannot exist together.
"This
is the message we have heard from Him and announce to you, that God is Light,
and in Him there is no darkness at all. If we say that we have fellowship with
Him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth; but if
we walk in the Light as He Himself is in the Light, we have fellowship with one
another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin. (1 John
1:5-7)"
Who is
your rescue?
"[Jesus
Christ ] who gave Himself for our sins so that He might rescue us from this
present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father.” (Galatians 1:4)
Who
saves you?
They
said, "Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your
household." Acts 16:31
Who will
you follow, and do you expect it to be easy?
“And
He was saying to them all, “If anyone wishes to come after Me, he must deny
himself, and take up his cross daily and follow Me.” (Luke 9:23)

4. “Power of Your Love”
By
Darlene Zschech
You say
that you love the Lord. Really?
"And
he said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with
all your soul and with all your mind." Mathew 22:37
Do you
know that the Lord reigns over all the world, over all the sky, and all the
waters?
“And
the LORD will be king over all the earth; in that day the LORD will be the only
one, and His name the only one.” Zechariah 14:9
Where
does He fit into your life? Who knows He is in you?
Does He
reign in your thoughts, words, and does your life reflect Him?
"And
let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in
one body. And be thankful." Colossians 3:15
Were you
like that before, and you need to be re-committed to Him?
5. “Lord Reign in Me”
Brenton
Brown
Do you
know how much the Lord loves you?
"so
that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; and that you, being rooted
and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the
breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ which
surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled up to all the fullness of God.”
(Ephesian 3:17-19)
He loves
you more than you know, because His love is pure and wholehearted, devoted, and
full of adoration for You.
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his
only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.”
John 3:16
Doesn’t
that make you feel happy? Doesn’t that make you feel like dancing with joy?
"And
David was dancing before the LORD with all his might, and David was wearing a
linen ephod." 2 Samuel 6:14
"Make
a joyful noise to the LORD, all the earth; break forth into joyous song and
sing praises!" Psalm 98:4
Let the
magnitude, the breadth, the width, and height of His Love for YOU sink in
today. Just one iota of this revelation will give you shivers.
6. “I Could Sing of Your Love Forever”
By
Delerious
7. “Who am I?”
By
Casting Crowns
“I AM
YOURS, LORD,” Let us pray this every day.
What
does all His Love and Comfort make you want to do?
Don’t
you want to just shout out to Him and praise Him?
"Make
a joyful noise unto the Lord, all the earth: make a loud noise, and rejoice,
and sing praise. (Psalm 8 98:4)"
The
mountains shall bow down and the seas will roar that Jesus is Lord.
"Shout
joyfully to the Lord, all the earth; Break forth and sing for joy and sing
praises... Let the sea roar and all it contains, The world and those who dwell
in it. Let the rivers clap their hands, Let the mountains sing together for joy
(Psalm 98:4, 7-8)"
Even the
rocks will cry out that Jesus Christ is Lord!!!
"Some
of the Pharisees in the crowd said to Him, 'Teacher, rebuke Your disciples.'
But Jesus answered, 'I tell you, if these become silent, the stones will cry
out!' (Luke 19:39-40)"

9. “Lord, I Lift Your Name on High”
By SonicPraises
We Worship You, Lord, and Come before You with our Requests &
Praises. We honor You as we keep You in our lives:
PRAYER REQUEST: You
may enter a Prayer Request any time during the entire Service, except during
Holy Communion.
PRAYER

For Kirstie, that she would be healed of her sickness, and that the doctors and
nurses would be enlightened as to her condition.
PRAYER
REQUEST:
For
the African orphans of our sister ministry with Pastor Steven Mwesigwa at Hope
& Joy Ministries. Let us have FAITH to move mountains so that donations may
be given for them to buy their own land. They DO wish to be self-sufficient.
Let us help them make it so.
PRAYER
REQUEST:
Pastor
Steven Mwesigwa asks we agree with him for protection against a “BISAKA
OWOBUSOBOZI” who calls himself God and “channels people to his evil work.”
Amen.
PRAYER
REQUEST:
For
all our disabled and Chronically Ill FB friends, including: Tamzin, Helen Whitman
Waltz, Tracy Norton, Bob Coleman-Long, Amy Cole, and others. Help us to bless
them in daily prayer.
PRAYER
REQUEST:
We ask for special
blessings for those who are searching for a job, or a raise, or a better economic
position.
PRAYER
REQUEST: That we continue to grow, multiply, love, spread
peace, clothe the poor, feed our orphans and
widows, and serve you, Lord.

unashamedly and wholeheartedly PRAISE & WORSHIP God today! Let Jesus be

Praises and adoration He deserves.
PRAYER

Please enter here if
you have any other prayer requests:
PRAISE
REPORTS: I praise you Lord, for allowing your Holy
Spirit to dwell within and amongst us. Let those who have ears to hear, listen
to the Word of God.
INVITATION AND RENEWAL PRAYER: Do you want to accept Christ as your
personal Savior?
If
you have not yet said this prayer ALOUD to accept Jesus as your Lord and
Personal Savior, you can do so now: “Lord, I have not accepted You fully into
my heart, or I did once long ago, and have strayed. I ask that you forgive my
sins, enter my heart, and stay with me forevermore. I thank you that by grace
alone, and your death on the cross, I can enter Heaven to be together with
you.”
If
you have said this prayer in earnest, please stay after the service for Counsel
and make sure we get a Mentor for you, so that we can disciple you from a
‘baby’ Christian to a ‘fully-grown’ Christian who is then able to lead. We then
go out to all ends of the earth, spreading the Gospel or supporting those that
do so. Amen!
PREPARATION FOR HOLY COMMUNION: Until I studied it myself, I did not realize how
seriously God ACTUALLY judges us, and WE JUDGE OURSELVES for taking Holy
Communion. It IS Holy.
We are not to take it if we
are sinning, or it is blasphemy against OURSELVES and the Lord. I encourage you
not to take Holy Communion until
after watching my short version (31 min) of my Bible Study on it: https://youtu.be/RIW44PDgM6w and the
Sermon version at: https://youtu.be/cGExxw8gzdk
Thank you.
SAY THE “OUR FATHER”, AS CHRIST TAUGHT US TO PRAY:
Let us take Holy Communion together, after saying the Our
Father, as Jesus told us to pray
together:
THE OUR
FATHER
Our Father, Who art in Heaven,
Hallowed be Thy Name.
Thy kingdom come,
Thy Will be done,
On earth as it is in Heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread,
And forgive us our trespasses
As we
forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
But deliver us from evil.
For thine is the Kingdom, the Power, and the Glory.
Forever and ever. Amen.
Gather your bread and wine for Holy Communion.
Bread, tortillas, chips, and grape juice, water, or any
juice works.
God understands.
Prepare your heart and soul.
COMMUNION SONG:
10. “We Fall Down”
By Chris
Tomlin
TOGETHER WE PARTAKE IN HOLY COMMUNION:
We proceed with Holy
Communion, in Remembrance of Christ’s death:
TAKING THE
BODY: We break off the
bread, eat it as His Body, and remember His death for us. Amen. As we chew it
and swallow it, it cleanses our bodies and our souls. (Eat the bread.)
TAKING THE
BLOOD: We drink the wine
that signifies His blood, for the shedding of all sins, as Christ died and took
our place for us on The Cross. (Drink the wine.)
You may sit or kneel after
taking Holy Communion, remembering Christ’s death for you. Christ does not want
us to forget it.
11. “All That I Have”
Esther
Mui
DONATIONS and NEEDS:
""Will
a man rob God? Yet you are robbing Me! But you say, 'How have we robbed You?'
In tithes and offerings." Malachi 3:8
Pastor Mwesigwa
needs $350/mo to feed the orphans. May people “adopt” a child for $30/mo. May
our tithes and offerings cheerfully be given to meet their needs, Lord, as You
love a “Cheerful Giver.” Speak with him directly through FaceBook, please.
GO PUT YOUR
FUNDS IN A SHOEBOX OR A JAR:
Save
your pennies and give once/month, or once/3 months, if you can. This is your
time to go sock it away. Do this happily! Go now!
Who has
given to this ministry? Ask yourselves. God expects us to tithe to support the
ministry and its needs. He does not expect the Reverend to work at McDonalds.
Travelling missionaries do not stay at hotels. They stay in the homes of people
who are from a church or ministry. What do you tithe? When do you tithe? You
need to tithe, or God says that you rob from Him.
DONATION SONG: as We are Cheerful Givers to Tithe!
12. “Open the Eyes of my
Heart, Lord”
By Don
Moen
CLOSING PRAYER BY KIRSTIE: Dear Lord, we bow our heads today in silence
and in remembrance of those who have lost their lives. We pray for their loved
ones to have NO MORE TEARS, for now their loved ones are at peace in Heaven.
We
pray for the many elderly men and women who are critical and for the children
and young adults that are critically ill in the hospital. Make your light shine
upon them with the healing they all need! May your healing light shine on all
those that ask for your healing at this hour!
May
we also forgive those who have been terrible and who have wronged us by the
devil as he tries to take our lives in his hands. Let us keep our Armor of God
on at all times.
May
we bless Rev. Margaret Aranda for doing all Thursday Bible Studies and Sunday
Services, and may she be at peace with everything and not have to worry a lot.
I ask for your light to shine down on her too.
Let
us all find the courage, strength and love to carry on with our daily lives. We
thank you for touching so many souls already with your light of healing. Let
every child in Africa have food and water that they need, also let them have
clothes and shoes, medication that they need to survive. Lord, please help
pastor Steven get as much donations from around the world. In Jesus name we
pray, Amen!
CLOSING SONG:
13. “He Will Make a Way”
(Psalms
15)
By
Allelulia Music
DISMISSAL:
Have
faith bigger than any mountain, deeper than any ocean. Do not put God in a box.
He won’t ever fit into a box. Remember that we are but mankind, and He is GOD. Go
now in peace to love and serve one another. Forgive your neighbor. I beseech
you, blessing you in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy
Spirit. Amen.
I
leave this as your parting song:
14. “I Can Only Imagine”
By
Alicia Keys
You may stop the Playlist, or continue to sing songs to the
Lord.
To be “born again,” please note the PLAN
OF SALVATION:
1. All
have sinned. (Romans 3:23; 1 John 1:8)
2. There
is a penalty for sin (Romans 6:23; John 3:18)
3. You
cannot save yourself (Titus 3:5; James 2:10)
4. Salvation
has been provided (Ephesians 2:8-9; John 3:16; John 14:6)
5. The
conditions are simple: A. Repent (Luke
13:3); B Confess (1 John 1:9; Romans 10:9); C. Believe (Acts 16:31)
6. Now
is your time for a Decision (Joshua 24:15; 2 Corinth 6:2)
Do you repent for your sins?
Do you confess your sins to the Lord?
Do you accept the Lord Jesus Christ as the
Son of God, into your heart?
If you answer “yes” to all these questions,
you are now a Born Again Christian! We love you! Welcome to the body of Christ!
Confess it with your mouth, or write it here! You must say it out loud! Praise
the Lord!
Go now, and Spread the Word of God to all
the Ends of the Earth!
