Set Apart - Holiness Revealed

Join us at Logan as we continue with our current series, Set Apart. This week Pastor JR Rivero helps us to reflect on the biblical concept of holiness.  It’s important to understand God's holiness as a foundational aspect for living a holy life. Be encouraged by the majesty and beauty of God, as his holiness is the source of His love and goodness.  Everyone is already set apart by God's design so embrace your distinctiveness.  God has created each person uniquely and for a specific purpose. This uniqueness is a testament to being made holy for God's pleasure and divine plan. It’s time to celebrate and appreciate the individuality that God has bestowed upon each of us, knowing that we are set apart for a purpose in His grand design.

The Lord spoke to Moses after the death of the two sons of Aaron, when they drew near before the Lord and died, and the Lord said to Moses, “Tell Aaron your brother not to come at any time into the Holy Place inside the veil, before the mercy seat that is on the ark, so that he may not die. For I will appear in the cloud over the mercy seat. But in this way Aaron shall come into the Holy Place: with a bull from the herd for a sin offering and a ram for a burnt offering.  - Leviticus 16:1-3 (ESV)

Set Apart - Holiness Lost

Join us at Logan as we continue with our current series, Set Apart. This week Pastor Henry helps us to examine the serpent's cunning deception and Eve's choice to believe the serpent over God's commands. There is a deceptive nature and consequences of sin, particularly the loss of connection with God and right standing with Him. Be encouraged you can choose God's word, character, and holiness over the deceptive narratives of the world. Repentance leads to restoration, and through God's grace, we can regain our connection and right standing with Him.

So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was a delight to the eyes, and that the tree was to be desired to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate, and she also gave some to her husband who was with her, and he ate. Then the eyes of both were opened, and they knew that they were naked. And they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves loincloths.And they heard the sound of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God among the trees of the garden. - Genesis 3:6-8 (ESV)

Set Apart - God Is Holy

Join us at Logan as we commence a new series, Set Apart. This week Pastor Henry delves into the biblical concept of holiness, highlighting God as the unique creator and urging a response of singing, declaring, and describing God's attributes. There’s an importance of gratitude in our songs, maintaining a heart of joy despite challenges, and choosing to focus on God's abundant blessings. Let's approach this year with excitement and a heart full of gratitude. In the face of challenges, let our songs be filled with joy, praising God for His abundant blessings. Remember, our response to God's holiness sets us apart for His glory and will.

Oh sing to the Lord a new song; sing to the Lord, all the earth! Sing to the Lord, bless his name; tell of his salvation from day to day. Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous works among all the peoples! For great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised; he is to be feared above all gods. For all the gods of the peoples are worthless idols, but the Lord made the heavens. Splendor and majesty are before him; strength and beauty are in his sanctuary. Ascribe to the Lord, O families of the peoples, ascribe to the Lord glory and strength! Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his name; bring an offering, and come into his courts! Worship the Lord in the splendor of holiness; tremble before him, all the earth!- Psalm 96:1-9 (ESV)

Unto Us - Lord of Lord, King of Kings

Join us at Logan as we continue with our current series, Unto Us. This week Marius Monsanto delves into the Book of Isaiah, exploring the profound significance of a child born to us to represent a King of all kings.  There is hope for the future arrival of a king with ultimate power. Notably, the government will rest on his shoulders, suggesting a divine authority beyond human comprehension. In times of uncertainty, the prophecy in Isaiah 9:6 serves as a beacon of hope, reminding us of the promise of a transformative figure with divine authority. Let's find comfort in the enduring faithfulness of God, trusting in His plan even when faced with challenges."

For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder, and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. - Isaiah 9:6 (ESV)

Unto Us - A Child is Born A Son is Given

Join us at Logan as we start our new series, Unto Us. This week Pastor Henry, drawing from the book of Isaiah, illuminates a message of hope amidst impending judgment, highlighting the birth of a child as a divine gift to humanity. Reflecting on the vulnerability of a child, we explore the humanity of God embodied in Baby Jesus. There is a contrast between fear and love, emphasising love's openness, trust, and teachability. Be encouraged you can overcome fear to receive the gift of love, and embrace vulnerability.  Trust in God's abundance and remain open to His guidance.

For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder, and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. - Isaiah 9:6 (ESV)

GO - Trusting God in the Going

Amid uncertainties and doubts, remember that your journey is purposeful. Embrace the blessings bestowed upon you, and let your authentic relationships be a testimony to God's transformative power. You are on a path designed by the Almighty, who guides your steps and ensures that you are not alone in your journey.

If you declare with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord,' and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. - Romans 10:9 (NIV)

GO - Ready Plan Go

Join us at Logan as we continue with our current series GO. This week Pastor Henry shares a powerful message on intentional planning and discipleship. It’s important to be a "make it happen" kind of person, with a focus on fruitful, purposeful, selfless, and God-glorifying plans. We need to count the cost before embarking on any endeavour. Place your hearts in God's hands, aligning your plans with His good and perfect will, be aware of discipleship opportunities, and be ready to lay down your life for Christ. What’s does God what said about your life?

For which of you, desiring to build a tower, does not first sit down and count the cost, whether he has enough to complete it? Otherwise, when he has laid a foundation and is not able to finish, all who see it begin to mock him, saying, ‘This man began to build and was not able to finish. - Luke 14:28-20 (ESV)

GO - The Potter and The Plan

Join us at Logan as we continue with our current series, GO. This week Pastor Henry explores the theme of planning and wisdom from a biblical perspective. As a potter shaping clay and God guiding human plans, there is an importance of surrendering our hearts to God for healing and alignment with His purpose. There is a significance of purposeful planning, the transformative power of God in shaping our hearts, and the need for careful, wise speech. Be encouraged to make intentional plans for the future, and trust in God's guidance. 

When a man's ways please the Lord, he makes even his enemies to be at peace with him. Better is a little with righteousness than great revenues with injustice. The heart of man plans his way, but the Lord establishes his steps. - Proverbs 16:7-9 (ESV)

GO - Embracing Stillness

Join us in Logan as we start a new series, GO. This week Stephanie Tofae focuses on the the crucial aspect of preparing for God's purposes before taking action. There’s a rarity of stillness and waiting in our fast-paced world but we can embrace stillness as a part of your Christian lifestyle. Continue working and building during waiting seasons, making room for moments of stillness to connect with God. It’s important to show patience, obedience, and finding purpose in the preparation. In the midst of waiting, we find purpose; in stillness, we connect with God.

“Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, to all the exiles whom I have sent into exile from Jerusalem to Babylon: Build houses and live in them; plant gardens and eat their produce. Take wives and have sons and daughters; take wives for your sons, and give your daughters in marriage, that they may bear sons and daughters; multiply there, and do not decrease. But seek the welfare of the city where I have sent you into exile, and pray to the Lord on its behalf, for in its welfare you will find your welfare. - Jeremiah 29:4-7 (ESV)

How To Make - God’s Masterpiece

Join us in Logan as we continue with our current series, How To Make. This week Pastor Henry explores the theme of being created by God to create good things and how we are formed anew in Christ Jesus, shedding our old ways and behaviours.  It is important to make daily choices that reflect this transformation. As God's masterpiece, we are called to treat others with love, respect, and generosity. We are to express gratitude and love to our loved ones and make intentional efforts to reflect Christ's love to those around us. We are God's masterpiece. When Christ is in us, there should be a change in the way that we are.  Be encouraged to embrace the new creation in Christ and let it shine through your actions and words. 

Now after a long time the master of those servants came and settled accounts with them. And he who had received the five talents came forward, bringing five talents more, saying, ‘Master, you delivered to me five talents; here, I have made five talents more.’ His master said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a little; I will set you over much. Enter into the joy of your master. - Matthew 25:19-21 (ESV)
