FPCLA Worship August 29, 2021

four community hands interlocked

Hello FPCLA,

Let us pray and act – whether through donation or educating ourselves and others, to what is happening in Afghanistan. Let us pray for the state of Louisiana as it’s expecting a Category 4 hurricane. Let us pray for everyone around us because we are all at risk of COVID-19. Remember, like love, prayer is an action word. You pray and you act.

This Sunday, we have a guest preacher, Pastor Yvette. Please, welcome Pastor Yvette as she speaks boldly about God’s truth and love.

James 1:17-27

17 Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows. 18 He chose to give us birth through the word of truth, that we might be a kind of firstfruits of all he created.

19 My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry, 20 because human anger does not produce the righteousness that God desires. 21 Therefore, get rid of all moral filth and the evil that is so prevalent and humbly accept the word planted in you, which can save you.

22 Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says. 23 Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like someone who looks at his face in a mirror 24 and, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like. 25 But whoever looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues in it—not forgetting what they have heard, but doing it—they will be blessed in what they do.

26 Those who consider themselves religious and yet do not keep a tight rein on their tongues deceive themselves, and their religion is worthless. 27 Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.

Announcements:
