Worship Confessional: Sunday, October 12, 2008
13 Oct2008
Yesterday was yet another one of those days where, even though I know the overall theme of this month's sermons, I didn't know the exact text/theme for the day's sermon. Nevertheless, I don't think things could have worked out much better if we had sat down a month in advance and planned the sermon and music together.
I love it when God does that.
We had more visitors yesterday, but our regular numbers were down. Three day weekend because of Columbus Day today? Maybe folks were getting their last camping type trips done before it gets "cold" here in Texas.
Here's the set list:
- Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing // John Wyeth, Robert Robertson (David Crowder style)
- Cannons // Phil Wickham
- I Must Tell Jesus // Elisha Hoffman (Kim Knoblitt/Euless First Baptist Church style)
- Sweet Hour of Prayer // William Walford, William Bradbury
- You Never Let Go // Matt Redman

Jeff,
I love it when it all comes together like that as well. "I Must Tell Jesus" – i did an arrangement of that back at my old church, I should dig it up!
For the Kingdom,
Fred McKinnon

Oh man Canons by Phil Wickham! I love that song! How'd it work in a corporate setting!?!
Yeah, I love it when God shows up and melds our services together in a supernatural way that we couldn't have planned any better!

@WorshipCity: Cannons works extremely well, even in a blended situation like ours. The first time we did it, I took the time to teach the chorus line by line to the crowd the same way Phil did at his concert.
Admittedly, the verses don't flow anywhere near as well, but the chorus is sung out very well. Kinda like a lot of hymns, verses not so strong but chorus is boisterous.

I love "Cannons"… good call!
A friend of mine would always say "be prepared to be unprepared!"… it didn't make sense to me until I began leading worship!!!!

"Be prepared to be unprepared". Nice. I don't know how many times God has come through for me as a worship leader in the midst of a time of corporate worship. Whether by showing up in spite of my crummy attitude or "gelling" the band that sounded *really* rough during practice or connecting songs back to the message.
He really and truly cares about this expression of our faith. Of course, it's just a part of what it means to be a worshiper, fully submitted to his rule and reign.
Being prepared is important, but He's reminded me many times over that it's not the only thing.

i think it's a relief when we realize God can show up without our being totally having every moment prepared. It has helped me rest in Him as I plan……
