Right now buildings can only at 25% capacity our capacity is 285 is 71.25
we have to alternate rows.
then there has to be two seats for each group of people
we will need to disinfected the whole seating area each time we have service.
NOT ALL CHURCHES WILL FALLOW THIS.

Psalm 139:13–14 NKJV
13 For You formed my inward parts; You covered me in my mother’s womb. 14 I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Marvelous are Your works, And that my soul knows very well.
Proverbs 22:6 NKJV
6 Train up a child in the way he should go, And when he is old he will not depart from it.
Jeremiah 1:5 NKJV
5 “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; Before you were born I sanctified you; I ordained you a prophet to the nations.”

1) Everyone has a purpose. The Father created us all with purpose.

the father crated us to labor:
we are called to labor with our hands to provide for our family.
1 Timothy 5:8 NKJV
8 But if anyone does not provide for his own, and especially for those of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.
Ephesians 4:28 NKJV
28 Let him who stole steal no longer, but rather let him labor, working with his hands what is good, that he may have something to give him who has need.
we are called to work with our hands to provide for our families.
we are called to be of assistance to others.
God would not call you to provide then not give you the means to provide.

2) we are gifted to minister.

1 Corinthians 12:7 NKJV
7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit of all:
Ephesians 4:16 NKJV
16 from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies, according to the effective working by which every part does its share, causes growth of the body for the edifying of itself in love.
1 Corinthians 14:32 NKJV
32 And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets.
you can withhold a gift.
you can use the gift. it’s entirely up to you.
I have taught and believed entirely that churches are gifted with everything that it needs, people just don’t realize they have what the church needs.

3) as our relationship deepens, we need to progress in the the will of God for our lives.

We are not waiting on God … God is waiting on us.
Just because we have some success doesn't mean we don’t need to grow up in the gifts.
2 Kings 3:11 NKJV
11 But Jehoshaphat said, “Is there no prophet of the Lord here, that we may inquire of the Lord by him?” So one of the servants of the king of Israel answered and said, “Elisha the son of Shaphat is here, who poured water on the hands of Elijah.”
1 Timothy 5:22 NKJV
22 Do not lay hands on anyone hastily, nor share in other people’s sins; keep yourself pure.
1 Timothy 3:5–6 NKJV
5 (for if a man does not know how to rule his own house, how will he take care of the church of God?); 6 not a novice, lest being puffed up with pride he fall into the same condemnation as the devil.
