2 From the Desk of Bishop Thomas S. Lee, Jr. A New Agenda to Include the Old One [Righteousness Jesus Style!] To be completely honest with you, Time, Challenges, Disappointments, Adversities, etc. take their toll on the developing Christian and often cause a severe reduction in growth and development. In fact, sometimes all development is consumed and lost to satan s attacks, but we must be determined to get back up and go for it again without compromise. You cannot allow the visible defeat to prevent you (us) from rolling up our sleeves and invincible and with great intestinal inner tube forge on to a pleasing and blessed position in Christ, where blessings are flowing like milk and honey. Stop look to people. Stop look at people. Stop expecting folks to get you there rather look at look to JESUS and the arrival is inevitable. Go for it and no one can stop you. Be blessed! I am! If any man be in Christ, he is a new creature. II Corinthians 5:17 Let us be a church family who trusts God completely, who pursues Him expectantly, and who loves Him visibly There are five things that you cannot recover in life: (1) The Stone after it is thrown (2) The Word after it is said (3) The Occasion after it is missed (4) The Time after it is gone, and (5) A person after he/she dies. Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us.

3 Confession The Bible the infallible and true word of God is my guide for life. Every act and/or action in which I engage shall be done according to God s Holy word. I, at this very moment and every moment here afterwards for the remainder of life, apologize and repent for all infractions and/or perceived infractions against God and hereby surrender to all precepts, rules, regulations, and/or expectations of God. I, at this very moment, cast down imaginations and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God and bring into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ. I denounce all relationships with negative and satanic spirits and declare Jesus as ruler and Lord of my life. I am more than a conqueror. I am a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people, determined to show forth praises to him who hath called me out of darkness into his marvelous light. I am all that the word of God says I am and I refuse to be robbed of anything documented in my will, The Word of God, that God says I shall have. I rebuke all satanic forces coming against me and members of the family of God, in the mighty name of Jesus. I hereby demand that, through and in the mighty omnipotent name of Jesus, all Word designated blessings due me, fellow EBONITES, and others of the family of God be released immediately and that all satanic blocks and hindrances be permanently removed at this very moment. Amen. Penned by Bishop Thomas S. Lee, Jr. February 16, 2002 Please complete this form and return it to the ushers. 10 If any man be in Christ, he is a new creature. II Corinthians 3

4 Prophetic Scripture Isaiah 60:18-22 Violence shall no more be heard in thy land, wasting nor destruction within thy borders; but thou shall call thy walls Salvation, and thy gates Praise. The sun shall be no more thy light by day; neither for brightness shall the moon give light unto thee: but the Lord shall be unto thee and everlasting light, and thy God thy glory. Thy sun shall no more go down; neither shall thy moon withdraw itself: for the Lord shall be thine everlasting light, and the days of thy mourning shall be ended. Thy people also shall be all righteous: they shall inherit the land forever; the branch of my planting, the work of my hands, that I may be glorified. A little one shall become a thousand, and a small one a strong nation: I the Lord will hasten it in his time. Do This in Remembrance of Me For I received from the Lord what I also delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus on the night when he was betrayed took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it, and said, This is my body which is for you. Do this in remembrance of me." In the same way also the cup, after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood, do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me." Psalm 100 King James Version Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all ye lands. Serve the LORD with gladness: come before his presence with singing. Know ye that the LORD he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name. For the LORD is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations. 4 9

5 My Shepherd You, Lord, are my shepherd. I will never be in need. You let me rest in fields of green grass. You lead me to streams of peaceful water, and you refresh my life. You are true to your name, and you lead me along the right paths. I may walk through valleys as dark as death, but I won't be afraid. You are with me, and your shepherd's rod makes me feel safe. You treat me to a feast, while my enemies watch. You honor me as your guest, and you fill my cup until it overflows. Your kindness and love will always be with me each day of my life, and I will live forever in your house, Lord. (Psalms 23:1-6 Philippians 4:8 "Finally, my friends, keep your minds on whatever is true, pure, right, holy, friendly, and proper. Don't ever stop thinking about what is truly worthwhile and worthy of praise." Army of the Lord I am a soldier in the army of my God. The Lord Jesus Christ is my Commanding Officer. The Holy Bible is my code of conduct. Faith, Prayer, and the Word are my weapons of warfare. I have been taught by the Holy Spirit, trained by experience, tried by adversity, and tested by fire. I am a volunteer in this army, and I am enlisted for eternity. I will either retire in this army at the Rapture or I will die in this army 8 The Plain Gospel And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house. Acts 16:31 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men Christ Jesus. 1 Timothy 2:5 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. Acts 4:12 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. John 3:17 For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost. Luke 19:10 Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Matthew 11:28 Him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out. John 6:37 I am the door: by me if anyone enters in, he shall be saved. John 10:9 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. Romans 10:13 Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation. 2 Corinthians 6:2 Prayer: Jesus, I believe and I need the salvation you have provided. Come into my heart, rule my life today, and show me how to live. Amen You, Lord, are my shepherd. I will never be in need. You let me rest in fields of green grass. You lead me to streams of peaceful water, and you refresh my life. You are true to your name, and you lead me along the right paths. I may walk through valleys as dark as death, but I won't be afraid. You are with me, and your shepherd's rod makes me feel safe. You treat me to a feast, while my enemies watch. You honor me as your guest, and you fill my cup until it overflows. Your kindness and love will always be with me each day of my life, and I will live forever in your house, Lord. (Psalms 23:1-6 5

6 Take My Life Holiness, holiness is what I long for Holiness is what I need Holiness, holiness is what You want for me Righteousness, righteousness is what I long for Righteousness is what I need Righteousness, righteousness is what You want for me, Take my life and mold it Take my mind, transform it Take my will, conform it To Yours, to Yours, Oh Lord Brokeness, brokeness is what I long for Brokeness is what I need Brokeness, brokeness is what You want for me It's the Blood of Jesus! "Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot." 1 Peter 1:18, 19 Wonderful Savior!...and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleans us from all sin (I John 1:7). What a wonderful Savior! Jesus paid a debt He did not owe because we owed a debt we could not pay. Our sins had to be paid for with Jesus' blood. 6 ORDER OF SERVICE March 2, 2014 * 11:00AM Opening Selection.
