Opening Prayer (In Unison) Gracious God, we thank you for your mercy and your grace. Your goodness is without limits.

Opening Prayer (In Unison)

Gracious God, we thank you for your mercy and your grace. Your goodness is without limits. Your Word instructs us “…not to give up meeting together,” so we gather in worship today. Your Word reminds us that, “Whatever happens, make sure that every day is worthy of the gospel of Christ,” so we seek now to live to your praise, honor and glory. Your Word directs us that “On the first

day of the week, set aside a specific sum of money in proportion to what you have earned and use it for the offering,” so we bring

our tithe, our offering, our worship, our praise, our energy and our commitment to you today. Accept our gifts of thanksgiving and use them to your glory. In the miraculous and mighty name

of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.   

Unison Scripture Reading: Judges 15:18-20 (NLT) 18Samson was now very thirsty, and he cried out to the LORD, “You have accomplished this great victory by the strength of

your servant. Must I now die of thirst and fall into the hands of these pagans?” 19So God caused water to gush out of a hollow in the ground at Lehi, and Samson was revived as he drank. Then he named that place “The Spring of the One Who Cried Out,”£

and it is still in Lehi to this day. 20Samson judged Israel for twenty years during the period when the Philistines dominated

God, we love you and the genuine expression of love is giving. You showed your love for us first by giving us your Son. We demonstrate our love for you by giving now a portion of what you have given to us. We give freely. We give cheerfully. We will not rob you. Instead, we will worship you by giving from our heart.  You are our #1 priority. We will not treat banks or bills better than we treat you because you deserve all the glory, the honor and the praise. We refuse to live under a curse. Therefore, in obedience to your Word, we bring our tithe and our offering to you today. PUT your promise into action! Open the windows of heaven and provide what we need for our desires and our destiny! POUR into our lives the phenomenal and spectacular by releasing a

blessing that is beyond our wildest dreams! PROTECT everything that we currently have and do not permit the enemy to abort anything that you are trying to give us for our future.  The tithe is what we owe, the offering is seed we sow. We sow now with the expectation of jobs and better jobs, of businesses and greater businesses, of raises and bonuses, of houses and land, of freedom from debt and supernatural increase. Bless us indeed and enlarge our territory as we live for your glory. Alleluia! In the mighty, matchless and miraculous name of Jesus, we confess. Amen!
