I want to encourage you today with a word from the scriptures.
Psalm 103:11-12
For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so great is his steadfast love toward those who fear him; as far as the east is from the west, so far does he remove our transgressions from us.
How encouraging to know that we are free! When you think about how high the heavens are above the earth, we can't even measure that. It's how vast His love is. It really is immeasurable. To know that He has taken our sins and removed them from us – they are no longer part of our existence – just trying to contemplate that and wrap our heads around that – it's hard to grasp because it's so vast and so expansive. It causes me to take a moment and say "Thank you Jesus! I'm free! I have a fear of the Lord, a healthy reverence. I love you. Respect you. I place my faith in you. All my sins are covered today." So are yours when we walk in faith with Jesus. We are going to celebrate that this weekend.
9 & 11am on Sunday – Would love to see you there in the house. If you can't be there you can access it online anytime throughout the week. We are talking about our values again on Sunday. The value of generosity. Some amazing outreach things are happening in our city right now because of your generosity and what we do together. We are also talking about the value of diversity. We have an incredible mix of people from all around the world that are a part of the Capital family. It is as it should be. We are all equal. We are all ONE in God's family. We will celebrate that as well this weekend.
It's the last Sunday of the month in July. We have communion. We will be remembering the sacrifice of Jesus. As we started this talk today, we will remember that our sins are covered and removed from us. Looking forward to seeing you there. It will be a great end of the month.
Launching into August, focusing on worship and pray. We will be preparing ourselves for a great breakthrough in the fall. Let's celebrate that we are free of anything that would sit on us and hinder us of a sinful nature. It's completely removed from us. I thank God for that and I thank God for you.
