Sermon Notes

Title: True Worshiper

Passage: John 4:23-24

But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the  Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him.  God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.                     John 4:23-24

Prayer Requests

Pray for Our Church (EFCLA)

  • Pray for Media Team. Pray for our Chinese and Harvest media teams. Pray that many people would be saved or have their lives renewed through the media that they generated.
  • Pray for Happiness Group Ministries. Pray for the BESTs who have made their decision for the Christ. Pray that all the BESTs would join our follow up groups and be baptized soon.
  • Pray for the Sick.  Pray for those who are sick. Pray that the Lord would heal them and restore their health.

Pray for the world

  • Pray for Mark and Ruth. Mark and Ruth has been faithfully reaching out to people in the Yunlin and Chiayi counties for over thirty years. Pray that many people would come to the Lord through their ministries.
  • Pray for Belgium. In January of this year, members of the Belgian govern-ment met at a Women’s Rights conference to discuss the fight against sex-ism in public spaces. They stressed that public harassment such as being stopped in the street, whistled at, or followed must not be trivialized. They committed to working together to access the laws that tackle sexism in the country. Pray that good policies may be made so that the women of Belgium will be respected and protected from harassment.
