This past Sunday, we hosted our first-ever Church in the Park! While we didn’t record the service, here is a recap of the Canada Day-inspired message:
Righteousness exalts a nation…. Proverbs 14:34
From one man he made all the nations, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he marked out their appointed times in history and the boundaries of their lands.” Acts 17:10
Clues To Our Purpose as Canadians:
• Our Founding Story – Sir Edmond Tilly 1867
• Canada got its own coat of arms in 1921 (from sea to sea)
• Canada’s own flag 1965 – the only nation with a leaf on its flag
“the leaves of the trees are for the healing of the nations” Revelation 22:2
Conclusion: Encouragements and Warnings
God calls people to blessing, but not for selfish reasons, blessed to be a blessing:
“I will make you a great nation, and I will bless you, and make your name great, so that you will be a blessing. Genesis 12:2
