There was nothing in the world safe for two tables of stone, which Moses put there at horror. when the Lord made a covenant with the children of Israel when they came out of the land of Egypt so that the priest could not stand to minister because of the cloud

00:11:13.540 - 00:11:42.180

00:11:42.180 - 00:12:10.140

I will keep my word in my heart, may it be found in my heart. And he said, "Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, which speaketh with his mouth unto David my father,

00:12:10.140 - 00:12:27.140

and has with his hand fulfilled it saying, "Since the day that I brought forth my people Israel out of Egypt, I chose some city of the Lord to drive Israel to the head of the house, and by name I be their name.

00:12:27.140 - 00:12:58.140

I chose David to be over my people Israel." And it would be the heart of David, my father, to build a house for the name of the Lord God of Israel. [Unintelligible] Nevertheless, thou shalt not build the house, but that son shall come forth out of their lounge. He shall build a house unto my name.

00:12:58.140 - 00:13:49.140

And the Lord had the highest priority in his faith today, and had the wisdom of the Lord to give him the right of life, and to sit on the throne of his instrument, and to the Lord of Christ, and to build a house for the kingdom of the Lord of God our God has given him. And I have set there a place for the ark, wherein the covenant of the Lord was made with our fathers when he brought them out of the land of Egypt. [Chanting] [Music]

00:16:12.700 - 00:16:32.460

to have the dedication of infants, parents, Bill and Gloria Black come to present their children, be dedicated to the Lord. This is somewhat an unusual experience for me.

00:16:32.460 - 00:16:58.460

This is the first time in all of my dedications that we've had twins, both boy and the girl. So as they come forward now, let us prepare for this ceremony. [Silence] [music]

00:16:58.460 - 00:17:59.740

[music] At this time we give particular attention to God's gift of life and the birth of children to this family. These parents, Bill and Gloria Black, have declared their desire to publicly present their children to God the presence of his people to dedicate themselves to providing Christian

00:17:59.740 - 00:18:32.520

nurture and to invite the partnership of this congregation with them in that high privilege and responsibility. The scripture says that children are a heritage from the Lord. Blessed is the man that has his cover full of them. So the new life that comes into the world

00:18:32.520 - 00:19:26.600

is the gift of God. And as these parents joined by members of the family and friends come to this dedication we in doing so pause to give thanks to God for the marvelous expression of his beautiful gifts in these children. What is the name of your children? Margreta Sinise and Daniel. While relying upon the

00:19:26.600 - 00:20:04.480

promises and working with God we shall seek both as parents and as a church to bring up these children in the discipline and instruction of the Lord. In turn we shall pray God's fatherly care and abundant blessing upon Margarethe and Daniel as they continue to grow.

00:20:04.480 - 00:20:37.420

Whosoever receives and welcomes a little child in Jesus name receives and cares for God's child. It is not the Father's will that even one child should be lost to him. Therefore here O people of God listen closely and obey the commands of God that you may be blessed in your child raising. The Lord is our God and

00:20:37.420 - 00:21:08.380

Him alone. You must love Him with all your heart and soul and strength always thinking about the Lord's guidance to you. Teach His word to your children. Talk over the things of His word when you are at home or out walking, at bedtime and before breakfast. Let your whole life give evidence that God's Word is at its

00:21:08.380 - 00:21:38.840

center. Your attempts to raise a family without God's help will be wasted for you're not able on your own to impart the eternal and unchanging dimensions of life to your children unless your children have this guidance and channel through the Spirit of God they will not in fact cannot be part of God's kingdom

00:21:38.840 - 00:22:19.480

so let your children come to Jesus do not hinder them let us pray gracious God, giver of all life, thou who dost set in solitary the families of this earth. We pause now with this family and friends and as the household of God here Ebenezer to ask your blessings upon Margaret and Daniel as their parents

00:22:19.480 - 00:22:53.600

offer them to you and doing so they rededicate themselves to the task of bringing them up in the fear and admonition of the Lord and we pray that that you will strengthen us that we may be the kind of dynamic models that will enable them to grow even as Jesus grew we ask it in his name. Your presence here

00:22:53.600 - 00:23:16.800

gives indication of your interests but to the end that your faith and integrity of purpose may be clear to all. May I ask you, do you wish to present publicly your children to God in recognition of the high privilege and unique responsibility that God has granted you? Do you recognize and solemnly

00:23:16.800 - 00:23:39.100

declare your dependence upon Almighty God for the wisdom, help, and blessing you will need to guide and nurture your children if you so purpose in your hearts you will answer we do. Do you promise and commit yourselves to teach your children the truths and obligations of the Christian faith and through

00:23:39.100 - 00:24:01.860

purposeful prayer and exemplary lives seek to lead your children to personal faith in God through Jesus Christ if you so purpose you will answer we do. You the congregation you have heard these parents declare their desire to present Margaret and Daniel to God and to dedicate themselves to Christian

00:24:01.860 - 00:24:22.260

nurture. They have also requested our commitment as God's people to assist them in their efforts. Do you acknowledge and accept the responsibility of assisting these parents in loving, teaching, and training their children in the ways of God so that they may in due time receive Christ Jesus as Savior and

00:24:22.260 - 00:24:50.940

Lord if so would you signify your acceptance of this responsibility by standing. May we bow our heads. Gracious God our Father we thank you for that parental love that was instrumental in bringing these children into the world and as

00:24:50.940 - 00:25:27.440

these parents offer them back to you in full recognition of your gift of life we pray that you will help us with them to be strong and to be helpful to be a guiding light graciously molding them in the image of Jesus Christ our Savior and our Lord. We were joined now in prayers of dedication with these parents that

00:25:27.440 - 00:25:55.180

the Christian home and the fellowship of believers may be working together for good in demonstrating that kind of life that is pleasing in your sight. So we pray that you would receive these thy children that you would accept them in the name of Jesus Christ the Lord bless you and keep you the Lord

00:25:55.180 - 00:26:11.540

cause his face to shine upon you and be gracious unto you the Lord lift up the light of his countenance upon you and give you peace now and evermore in In Jesus' name, amen. God bless you.

00:26:11.540 - 00:26:55.220

[Music] Our scripture lesson found the gospel according to Luke the 19th chapter and in the first ten verses. And Jesus entered and passed through Jericho and behold there was a man named Zacchaeus who was the chief among the publicans

00:36:01.260 - 00:36:36.880

and he was rich and he sought to see Jesus who he was and could not for the because he was little of stature and he ran before and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see him for he was to pass that way and when Jesus came to the place he looked up and saw him and said unto him Zacchaeus make haste and come down for

00:36:36.880 - 00:37:06.440

today I must abide at thy house and he made haste and came down and received him joyfully and when they saw it they all murmured saying that he was going to be guessed with a man that is a sinner and Zacchaeus stood and said unto the Lord behold Lord the half of my goods I give to the poor and if I have taken

00:37:06.440 - 00:37:33.160

anything from any man by false accusation I restore him fourfold and Jesus said unto him this day is salvation come to this house for so much as he also is a son of Abraham while the Son of Man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.
