You're the Word of God the Father
From before the world began.
Ev'ry star and ev'ry planet
Has been fashioned by Your hand.
All creation holds together
By the power of Your voice.
Let the skies declare Your glory;
Let the land and seas rejoice!!
With a shout You rose victorious,
Wresting vict'ry from the grave,
And ascended into heaven,
Leading captives in Your way.
Now You stand before the Father,
Interceding for Your own;
From each tribe and tongue and nation,
You are leading sinners home!
You're the Author of creation;
You're the Lord of ev'ry man;
And Your cry of love rings out across the lands.
by Keith Getty and Stuart Townend

Psalms
The books of Psalms has been appreciated by many believers down through the ages, providing insight and understanding of the scriptures that is different to other books of Bible.
There are 150 Psalms, a good number of them written by David, although there are many other authors with some anonymous.
For some Christians there is no particular favourite but some Psalms are greatly appreciated by many, such as 23, 51 or 139. The Messianic Psalms give a unique insight to the suffering of the Lord Jesus that can help us in our worship of the one who brought salvation.
We can sing Psalms in church or we can listen to recordings that encourage and inspire but most important of all we can spend time in the quite place reading and mediating on them.

Bible Teaching
The subjects on a Sunday Evening are proving to be beneficial. The excellent teaching on topics in the Bible covered in recent months, such as “The Great Tribulation”. A topic in scripture that is often overlooked, that is important in our understanding of the doctrine of the “end times”, as it inspires us as we look forward to the return of the Lord Jesus. This month there is once again some interesting passages under consideration.
