HYMN God & God Alone
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WW8VvXUv_8Q
SCRIPTURE Psalm 145:10-18
All your works shall give thanks to you, O LORD, and all your faithful shall bless you.
They shall speak of the glory of your kingdom, and tell of your power,
to make known to all people your mighty deeds, and the glorious splendor of your kingdom.
Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and your dominion endures throughout all generations.
The LORD is faithful in all his words, and gracious in all his deeds.
The LORD upholds all who are falling, and raises up all who are bowed down.
The eyes of all look to you, and you give them their food in due season.
You open your hand, satisfying the desire of every living thing.
The LORD is just in all his ways, and kind in all his doings.
The LORD is near to all who call on him, to all who call on him in truth.
HYMN Still

SCRIPTURE Psalm 14
Fools say in their hearts, “There is no God.” They are corrupt, they do abominable deeds; there is no one who does good.
The LORD looks down from heaven on humankind to see if there are any who are wise, who seek after God. They have all gone astray, they are all alike perverse; there is no one who does good, no, not one.
Have they no knowledge, all the evildoers who eat up my people as they eat bread, and do not call upon the LORD?
There they shall be in great terror, for God is with the company of the righteous. You would confound the plans of the poor, but the LORD is their refuge.
O that deliverance for Israel would come from Zion! When the LORD restores the fortunes of his people, Jacob will rejoice; Israel will be glad.
HYMN Take My Hand Precious Lord

PRAYER
Almighty God, You sent your Son to seek and save each one of us lost in our sin. Through Jesus, we are freed from the consequences of sin to become your people sharing in his resurrection for eternal life. Loving God, open our hearts to hear your word and draw us closer to you.
God of mercy, hear the prayers of your people:
O God, make known all the deceptive plots by ‘The 7th Floor Group/Shadow Government.’ Reveal this entire ‘deep state’ political swamp that is unaffected by elections, unaltered by the will of the people, and exists beyond national law. Bring all to repentance that desire to go ‘downtown’ to personally profit at the expense of the people. If it is your will, help nominee Brett Kavanaugh to be established as a Supreme Court Justice to fill the seat of retiring Justice Anthony Kennedy.
Especially, we pray for your spiritual, physical, and mental protection from the schemes and attacks against President Trump and Vice President Pence and their families. Give to them Your wisdom and courage to persevere in serving according to your will to restore all that is broken within our government. Help them to stop all attempts to subvert and violate our Constitution that serves to codify our national law establishing governmental structure while honoring Godly core values.
Gracious God, revive our nation to once again become an authentic witness bringing to all the knowledge and hope of salvation through Jesus. We pray in the name of Jesus the Christ. Amen.
HYMN I’ll Walk with God

SCRIPTURE Mark 6:30-34, 53-56
The apostles gathered around Jesus, and told him all that they had done and taught. He said to them, “Come away to a deserted place all by yourselves and rest a while.” For many were coming and going, and they had no leisure even to eat. And they went away in the boat to a deserted place by themselves.
Now many saw them going and recognized them, and they hurried there on foot from all the towns and arrived ahead of them. As he went ashore, he saw a great crowd; and he had compassion for them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd; and he began to teach them many things.
When they had crossed over, they came to land at Gennesaret and moored the boat.
When they got out of the boat, people at once recognized him, and rushed about that whole region and began to bring the sick on mats to wherever they heard he was. And wherever he went, into villages or cities or farms, they laid the sick in the marketplaces, and begged him that they might touch even the fringe of his cloak; and all who touched it were healed.
HYMN More Than Wonderful

SCRIPTURE Ephesians 3:14-21
For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth takes its name.
I pray that, according to the riches of his glory, he may grant that you may be strengthened in your inner being with power through his Spirit, and that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith, as you are being rooted and grounded in love.
I pray that you may have the power to comprehend, with all the saints, what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, so that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.
Now to him who by the power at work within us is able to accomplish abundantly far more than all we can ask or imagine, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.

We are in intense spiritual warfare right now!!
Psalm 94
1 O Lord, you God of vengeance,
you God of vengeance, shine forth!
2 Rise up, O judge of the earth;
give to the proud what they deserve!
3 O Lord, how long shall the wicked,
how long shall the wicked exult?
4 They pour out their arrogant words;
all the evildoers boast.
5 They crush your people, O Lord,
and afflict your heritage.
6 They kill the widow and the stranger,
they murder the orphan,
7 and they say, The Lord does not see;
the God of Jacob does not perceive.
8 Understand, O dullest of the people;
fools, when will you be wise?
9 He who planted the ear, does he not hear?
He who formed the eye, does he not see?
10 He who disciplines the nations,
he who teaches knowledge to humankind,
does he not chastise?
11 The Lord knows our thoughts,*
that they are but an empty breath.
12 Happy are those whom you discipline, O Lord,
and whom you teach out of your law,
13 giving them respite from days of trouble,
until a pit is dug for the wicked.
14 For the Lord will not forsake his people;
he will not abandon his heritage;
15 for justice will return to the righteous,
and all the upright in heart will follow it.
16 Who rises up for me against the wicked?
Who stands up for me against evildoers?
17 If the Lord had not been my help,
my soul would soon have lived in the land of silence.
18 When I thought, My foot is slipping,
your steadfast love, O Lord, held me up.
19 When the cares of my heart are many,
your consolations cheer my soul.
20 Can wicked rulers be allied with you,
those who contrive mischief by statute?
21 They band together against the life of the righteous,
and condemn the innocent to death.
22 But the Lord has become my stronghold,
and my God the rock of my refuge.
23 He will repay them for their iniquity
and wipe them out for their wickedness;
the Lord our God will wipe them out.
Amen.
HOLY FATHER, please hear our prayers
we pray in JESUS name

Wonderful testimony. At first I thought it was Tommy Dorsey, the swing bandleader; but no, it was this amazing guy:
Thomas Andrew Dorsey (1899 1993),
known as "the father of black gospel music"
Amen and God bless.
