How will you put the Lord’s teachings into practice in your daily life? Notice: Brothers and sisters, please preach the gospel to your relatives and friends who haven’t believe in the Lord. Because this is the Lord’s commission and our mission. Please maintain appropriate church hygiene. Before leaving, check your belongings, put away the Bible and hymn books, and take out the trash and throw it in the bin. During the preaching, please turn off your cell phone or turn it on silent. Do not loiter around or speak loudly. Or you may disturb others. Pray: Pray for being wise virgins and hearing the voice of God in the last days, so that we can welcome the Lord, and feast with the Lamb. Pray for spreading the gospel of the heavenly kingdom all across the world, so that those who love truths and long for God’s manifestation will be able to return to God. Pray that all brothers and sisters can cast off the binds of their sinful nature and live in the light of God. Pray that God is always with us and protect us to live in God’s love.
