Psalm 121:5

‘The LORD is your keeper; the LORD is the shade on your right hand.’

- The Lord is personally watching over your life.
- Nothing you are facing, escapes His care or attention.
- He stands right beside you, offering constant protection and covering.
- Face each day with confidence, the Lord is guarding your every step.

Prayer: Lord, thank You that You watch over me and stand beside me. Be my shade and my protection in every situation. Help me to rest in Your constant care and unfailing love. Amen.

The term "member of the church" is not specifically recorded in the Bible. So, what is the difference between a "member of the church" and a "disciple of Jesus?"

In this study, Evangelist Tim Copeland examines what it means to be a "disciple of Jesus."

A Member of the Church or A Disciple of Jesus

Luke 23:44-49 documents the final hour of Jesus on the cross and the events surrounding His crucifixion.

In this sermon, Evangelist Tim Copeland examines what the crucifixion of an innocent man means to us today.

An Innocent Man

Numbers Chapter 10

[Verse 1]
Blow the silver trumpets loud and high
A call to gather under the endless sky
When the cloud moves we rise and go
Through the wilderness where the Spirit flows

[Chorus]
Trumpets in the wind calling us again
To march as one through fire and rain
Oh trumpet sound guide us now
Lead us where the Lord allows

[Verse 2]
When the battle roars and fear takes hold
The trumpet's cry is brave and bold
A sound of hope in the shadow's fight
It lifts our hearts it shines the light

[Prechorus]
Two blasts to move
One blast to stay
The Lord commands we obey

[Chorus]
Trumpets in the wind calling us again
To march as one through fire and rain
Oh trumpet sound guide us now
Lead us where the Lord allows

[Bridge]
In the morning mist it’s a holy song
Through the evening dusk it carries strong
A melody that breaks the chains
A promise sung in the heavens’ name

Trumpets in the Wind

【Verse 1】
From quiet fields I heard Your gentle calling,
A shepherd boy with nothing in my hands.
Yet in Your mercy, You gave me a burden—
To bring Your hope to distant lands.

【Verse 2】
Through storm and sea, the journey felt so heavy,
China’s doors were closed to all who came.
Still I prayed, “Lord, if I cannot enter,
Let Your holy Word go just the same.”

【Pre-Chorus】
Tears on the pages, prayers in the night,
Shaping a message of grace and of light.
Jesus, Your gospel is worth every cost—
Use me, O Lord, to reach the lost.

【Chorus】
Let Your light go first,
Let it cross the oceans wide.
Let Your truth break every darkness,
Let it shine on every side.
If my feet cannot step upon that land,
Still my heart will pray in faith:
“Jesus, send Your Word,
Let Your light go first.”

【Bridge】
It’s not the strength of what I bring,
But the power of Your name I sing.
If I am small, then You are great—
Your glory will illuminate.

【Chorus (Repeat)】
Let Your light go first,
Let it cross the oceans wide.
Let Your truth break every darkness,
Let it shine on every side.
If my life is poured out for Your call,
Let the nations see Your grace:
“Jesus, send Your Word,
Let Your light go first.”

【Ending】
Take my days, my breath, my story—
Let them all proclaim Your worth.
“Jesus, send Your Word,
Let Your light go first.”

Let Your Light Go First - Inspired by Missionary William Milne

Deuteronomy 7:9

‘Know therefore that the LORD your God is God; He is the faithful God, keeping His covenant of love to a thousand generations…’

- God’s love is steadfast and enduring.
- He remains faithful through every season of your life.
- You can trust Him completely because His character never changes.
- His covenant of love surrounds you and secures your future.

Prayer: Lord, thank You that You are my faithful God and that Your love never fails. Help me to trust You with my whole heart. Let Your faithful love be my strength and peace each day. Amen.

Daily Devotions with Pastor John David Mull of Shepherd of The Valley on the three-year Lectionary Readings. Lectionary A, 2nd Sunday of Advent.

Isaiah 10:1-10

Romans 15:4-13

Matthew 3:1-12

lord forgive me

Many people realize that Jesus makes eternal life possible, and for that we are grateful, but accepting that truth is expected to make a transformative impact in a believer’s life. One of the first evidences that you have been saved and are of the family of God is a transformation of speech. 

Join Pastor Joshua Brassard of One Hope Community Church as we examine our own communication against what the apostle Paul taught of the transformative power of the gospel in Ephesians 4:21-29.

Gospel-Shaped Life--Part 11

【Verse 1】
当风暴席卷这座城
When storms sweep across this city,

烟雾遮住了天晴
Smoke hides the once-bright sky.

多少心在黑夜里哭泣
So many hearts weep through the night,

主啊愿祢怜悯降临
Lord, may Your mercy descend.

【Verse 2】
瓦砾之中仍有呼声
Amid the rubble, voices still cry out,

渴望光照破灰尘
Longing for light to pierce the dust.

疲乏的灵向祢来呼求
Weary souls lift their cries to You,

愿祢医治破碎的人
May You heal the broken ones.

【Chorus】
平安临到香港
Peace come upon Hong Kong,

愿祢的爱遮盖这地
May Your love cover this land.

主啊伸手扶起软弱者
Lord, stretch out Your hand to lift the weak,

让希望在废墟中绽放
Let hope bloom among the ruins.

平安临到香港
Peace come upon Hong Kong,

愿祢荣耀如晨光照亮
May Your glory shine like the morning light.

祢是避难所 是我盾牌
You are my refuge, my shield,

主 我倚靠祢不惧怕
Lord, I trust in You and will not fear.

【Bridge】
主祢坐着为王
Lord, You sit enthroned as King,

洪水之上仍掌权
Reigning even above the floods.

再大的火 也不能带走
No fire, however great, can take away

祢对这城的眷恋
Your tender love for this city.

主祢必安慰
Lord, You will surely comfort,

擦去每滴泪水
Wiping away every tear.

让枯干的心 看见
Let hearts grown dry now see

新生命正萌芽
New life beginning to sprout.

【Chorus Reprise】
平安临到香港
Peace come upon Hong Kong,

愿祢圣手带下复兴光
May Your holy hand bring forth the light of revival.

在破碎中 我们同宣告
In the midst of brokenness, we declare together:

神仍在这里掌王权
God is still reigning here.

平安香港

Ephesians 5:15-21.  Since many of us live crowded, hectic lives, it can be easy to spend all the time God gives us on life's daily pursuits. 

In this lesson, Evangelist Jacob Holman considers Paul's admonition to "redeem the time" and examines five ways he instructs us to do so.

Redeeming the Time

In Romans 12, Paul instructs Christians to be completely dedicated to serving God, fellow Christians, and their neighbors in the world.
 
In this sermon, Evangelist Gavin Williams examines how worship as a way of life extends beyond the songs of ascent and the Old Testament.

The church of Christ at Fairview Park is a group of Christians committed to following just the Bible in all that we say and do. Our goal is to be a local church like those found in the pages of the New Testament. Our collective worship and work reflect this focus.  

Our weekly uploads are Bible lessons presented by Fairview Evangelists.  We invite you to study the Bible with us.

Like those found in the pages of the New Testament, the Fairview Park church is completely independent of all other churches. The elders have authority over this congregation (Heb 13:7, 17; 1 Pet 5:1-4) and they answer only to Jesus – not any other church or body.

We would love for you to join us for worship. If you have any questions about what we do or concerns about whether we are following the New Testament, we sincerely encourage you to contact us.
