GBC Community Update: Facing the source of doubt, fear & worry

5/19/2020

0 Comments

 
​Good morning!  I hope you had a blessed Victoria Day weekend. I know it was different, I had my plans cancelled as did many others but there were still many blessings to be found it you looked for them.  As in any times, not just Covid, much comes down to the choices we make. We have an enemy, the devil, who seeks to get us to miss the blessings and joy to be found it times like this. Read below to learn more about what he does and how to fight back.


There’s Still Time to Connect With a Small Group for our Philippians Series!
We kicked off our next round of small groups, now focused on our new teaching series: “Joy in the Storm”. We have the opportunity over the next seven weeks to study along with this using the Discovery Bible Study method. This will not only help you prepare for Sunday but grow in your own understanding and application of what’s being taught.  

Our last series of joint sessions before we break into individual groups happens TODAY at 2pm and 7pm.

So, if you’re interested in participating today, or being part of a group moving forward, please contact Patrick Thornton at [email protected] or 519-835-1005 to get connected.


Wednesday Prayer
Jacob and Karen Ginter host a weekly prayer gathering on Wednesday nights from 7-8pm. Join them as they pray through scripture for this current situation and for all of us.  You can connect through Zoom or by phone.   Here are the details:

A thought for the day: The Devil works to consume us in doubt, fear and worry. 
Satan tries to deceive us into thinking we’re all alone, he want us to doubt God, live in fear and worry about everything going on. He’s crafty. The Bible tells us he is a schemer. He is cunning and evil. He can never be trusted. He is a master manipulator. So not only be aware of this but don’t fall for his schemes. Look to God in times like this and live in the light, seeking to listen to his voice.
We read in Genesis 3: “Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the wild animals the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God really say, ‘You must not eat from any tree in the garden?’” He lied to Eve and Adam and the result is the fallen world we live in today, including Covid.
But God doesn’t leave us hanging.
Paul wrote: “Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.” Put on the armor of God, resist the devil as Jesus did in the wilderness and he WILL flee.  Don’t let him put you in a place of doubt, fear or worry but live triumphantly in God.

In His grip,
Pastor Chris
