Fourth Friday Praise is a time to worship and praise God for who He is and what He has done. Everyone is welcome.
Victory Church Ephrata Worship Team will be leading the praise this month.
JOHN SHIRK – Today’s Faith-Building Verses are Psalm 33:2 to 4.
“Praise the LORD with the harp; make music to him on the ten-stringed lyre. Sing to him a new song; play skillfully, and shout for joy. For the word of the LORD is right and true; he is faithful in all he does.”
Worship is a way of life that includes music. With a joyful heart, we can celebrate with shouts of joy for God’s grace and goodness. With a troubled heart, we can pour out our heart to God with words of lament and petition. This too can be a meaningful time of worship as we seek God in the midst of our trials. Music is given to us as a creative expression to glorify God.
Whether we sing from the hymnbook or the newest song on the radio, we have the opportunity to express our love for God in a way that honors His name and edifies our soul.
These Faith-Building Verses inspire us to use music as an instrument for worship in the Year of Relationship.

JOHN SHIRK – Today’s Faith-Building Verse is Second Corinthians 5:15.
Speaking of Jesus, “He died for all that those who live should no longer live for themselves, but for him who died for them and was raised again.”
We were made for a purpose that is greater than ourselves. We were made for worship-to lift up the name of Jesus and to live for His glory. That is when life has meaning and when our faith has vibrant expression.
The death and resurrection of Jesus has brought our purpose to life. In response to God’s precious gift provided for us, we want to honor Him with a life of grateful love and devotion.
This Faith-Building Verse inspires us to live for Jesus in the Year of Relationship.
