“The Word of God says that 'you shall receive power... and you shall be witnesses unto me in Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria, and to the outermost part of the earth.'”
A Sunday worship service combining extended praise, intercessory prayer, pastoral announcements and a Bible message focused on Psalm 23 (and related Psalms). The preacher uses the metaphor of sheep and shepherd to call believers to know God personally, trust his provision, embrace holiness, receive more of Christ’s gifts (forgiveness, love, power) and then give those gifts away. Service elements include offerings, baby dedications, ministry updates and a charge to be doers of the Word.
“But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, in all of Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the world.”

“They went outside the four walls and changed all of Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria.”
A two-part Independence Day message that reframes national freedom around Christian dependence on Christ: true liberty is realized through forgiveness.

“But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and all Judea, and Samaria, and the ends of the earth.”
