Hi friends! Happy new week! How was the weekend? For the life media, we had an awesome service in God's presence yesterday. Follow me as I give some tips on how my weekend was.
It started with an opening prayer led by David Ukpo, after which everyone dispersed to their different Sunday school classes. After the class, there was a call to worship led by Bro. John Uko. People were so blessed during this session. After that, the increase voices rendered their song, and in the same spirit, after their rendition, we sang a hymn.
After the hymn, the glorious heritage (also known as the children's choir) ministered their song and was led by Sis. Etieno Udoeyen. While they were singing, tithe payment was made and prayed for by the resident pastor; this led to the praise and offering session. This session was awesome because the congregation danced and gave praise to God. After the session, an announcement was made, and the banner bearers were given time to introduce and give highlights for the youth week.
After this, the music team blessed our hearts with a song led by Mrs. Udeme. This ministration also prepared us for the message. The message was preached by Pastor Kenneth Elisha. After the message, a closing prayer was said and the benediction was done, which brought about the dismissal of the service. The nugget below were the outline points in his message:

NUGGET:
- Time is the most important resource to man.
- Don't waste time, but use time.
- We can do anything, but we can't do everything. Accept the fact that we all procrastinate, so try to be steward to time.
- We can't do anything to increase the quantity of time, so therefore, use it wisely.
- Those who achieve so much in life are those that uses time effectively.
- Don't wish to be like someone, the God that designs you has a purpose for you, just ask him what that plan is.
- God in his infinite wisdom has designed purpose for each lives and had apportioned the time for the purpose to be fulfilled.
THE SPIRITUAL TIME
The physical time is controlled by clock while the spiritual timing is the coordination of the spiritual and the natural events. What does not happen in the spiritual won't happen in physical. So therefore, the spiritual supersedes the physical.
God is a spirit, and He dwells in the spiritual where He controls everything that happens in the physical. Whatever is seen in the physical is determined in the spiritual. Jesus was the first to fulfill his physical and spiritual timing. [ John 13:1]
So friends, how was your own Sunday service?
