People were given helium filled balloons and told to release them at some point in the service when they felt like expressing the joy in their hearts. Since they were Presbyterians, they weren't free to say "Hallelujah, Praise the Lord." All through the service balloons ascended, but when it was over 1/3 of the balloons were unreleased. If I were to do this experiment at Refuge, would you let your balloon go? Well, it would depend on your sermon Coach. Or did Jacob play my favorite praise song during worship! Or did my friends say hi and include me in their conversation? In our world today we confuse happiness and joy. Happiness is feeling pleasure and enjoyment because of your life, a particular situation, etc. Read Lamentations 3:16-18. Thoughts? The author forgot what happiness was because of his circumstances but read down a few verses. Read Lamentations 3:22-27 Joy is a state of happiness that does not depend on circumstances. Are you ready to detach your happiness from the circumstances you face? Not Ready 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 Ready What are some the things that rob you of joy? What are the dangers of living for happiness? Read and summarize: Psalms 16:11 Psalms 71:23 Romans 15:13 What is your favorite lyric of Who Cares If Were Dancing by OBB below? Who cares if we dance all night 'til the sun comes up If we lose ourselves in Your crazy love This ain't religion, no We've been forgiven, yea With no conditions, woah oh So who cares if we're dancing How great our God That he came for us That he, that he came for us 'Cause the more we fall And the more we break The more He shows us grace So how could we just sit down With the love that we've found Come on lets go all out, all out Love is the reason, love is the reason Love is the reason that we dance, that we sing Habakkuk 3:18 yet I will rejoice in the Lord; I will take joy in the God of my salvation. Remember our balloon from earlier? According to Habakkuk 3:18, those of us who are saved should not have held onto our balloons at all because of the amazing grace of Jesus in our lives. Because of His salvation we have joy. Pray that the Lord will begin a rebirth of joy in your heart because of the sacrifice of Jesus. How amazing is the Love of Christ!?! Week 1 – Day 2 Devotional by Chris Smith Watch this lyric video of the song All Eyes on You by OBB https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vv1s7kcz2EU for a live link go to The Vinyl Experience webpage What is your favorite Lyric below? All Eyes on You Everything else fades away You've taken over me When You step on the scene Let me be a reflection of Your truth In my heart take center stage And turn. And I'll follow Your lead So let me step aside All eyes on You x3 and put Your name in lights Headline this life Yeah I was blind But now I see You gave it all To set me free All eyes on You In everything I do So everyday Till my time is gone Everywhere I move I'll live my life Let Your love shine through Turning eyes on eyes on You So all the world can see You've taken over me No matter where I am So let me be a reflection of Your truth No matter who I'm with And turn. With everything I do Let it point to You All eyes on You x3 All eyes on You In everything I do You burn brighter than a million stars Everywhere I move And nothing can compare Let Your love shine through Let me shadow who You are So all the world can see Every second and everywhere You've taken over me Let me step aside Let me be a reflection of Your truth And put Your name in lights And turn. Headline this life All eyes on You x3 All eyes on You In everything I do Everywhere I move No matter where I am Let Your love shine through No matter who I'm with So all the world can see With everything I do Let it point to You Here are a couple of my favorite verse: In my heart take center stage And I'll follow Your lead Is it easier for you to lead or to follow? How do these verses encourage you to follow? Luke 5:11 Acts 20:22-24 Mark 8:31-38 Headline this life One of the names God gives us in the Old Testament for Himself is Jehovah Nissi or in English “The Lord is my Banner” Exodus 17:14-16 Then the LORD said to Moses, “Write this as a memorial in a book and recite it in the ears of Joshua, that I will utterly blot out the memory of Amalek from under heaven.” And Moses built an altar and called the name of it, The LORD Is My Banner, saying, “A hand upon the throne of the LORD! The LORD will have war with Amalek from generation to generation.” When you hear that name what do you think about? Draw a picture or word picture to describe it.
