Did Anyone See God Show Up Today? - Bill White

Did Anyone See God Show Up Today? - Bill White

During the offering song at 9:00 a woman received a dramatic vision about the person she brought to church.  One of the ladies that Katy disciples brought a friend to church today and got to pray with her to accept Christ.  I got to pray with LoLo and her entire family after the 9:00 service and there were lots of tears.  It was just that sort of day. 

 

Would you mind sharing a story of what you saw God doing before, during, or after community worship today?  I think it might encourage us all. Just jot down a few notes – something big or something small.  We build faith as we share the stories! 

 

Some folks wanted more about discovering your calling.  The following blog went up today to speak to that issue:  http://www.erc.la/discovering-your-calling-from-acts-9---bill-white

 

There’s more about what it means to be chosen on this blog (which includes the insightful anonymous comment about feeling worthless that we read at 9:00 and CenterPoint): http://www.erc.la/created-in-the-image-of-god---bill-white

LoLo is my long time bestest friend. We've been friends since high school. I am so excited to hear of what God is doing in her life and the life of her family. God has answered the prayers of her children, family and friends (me & my family!) Her salvation is a true testimony of the power of God! Nothing is impossible for God! Not one is out of His reach! And now we know that God will finish the good work He has begun in my friend LoLo (Phil. 1:6)
LOLO, JESUS LOVES YOU LIKE THERE IS NOBODY ELSE TO LOVE! YOU ARE HIS DAUGHTER, CHOSEN AND CALLED BY HIM FOR GREAT THINGS!
I attend Regency Christian Center International (RCCI.org) in uptown Whittier with Pastors Jason & Cathy Guerrero.

Thanks Bill for allowing God to use you on Sunday. I have been feeling very disconnected from God and haven't really known why. ANYWAY, God revealed to me through my best friend on Saturday some deep cleaning He is working on in me, a new layer to peel back and reveal. It deals with the fact that I FEEL (this in not God's TRUTH, but my feelings) I am not worthy of God's Love. I haven't earned it, preformed well enough or measured up to standards I unknowingly set for myself. I feel as though I should be punished and not given Love, Acceptance & Grace by my family and certainly not by God. God revealed this to me on Saturday. So it was perfect that God told me again on Sunday through the sermon, that I am a child of God and am worthy (through the Blood of Christ) to be His Child. It is something that will need to continually be poured into me.

This is why I love Emmanual so much, Bill. God is always showing up here! I've been to several churches in my life and have attended 3 on a regular basis, and I have never seen Jesus' face in so many people as I have seen Him here at Emmanual. Everywhere I turn, there is someone loving me, praying for me, and someone encouraging me.

On Sunday at the carnival I was in line for In and Out and saw Pastor Ken praying with my family in the middle of the In and Out line. That's how real God is here! How awesome it is to be a part of a church who believes to such depths that God hears EVERY SINGLE prayer, that we stop what we are doing, drop everything, and pray!

Thanks for preaching a great word on Sunday!
