Come Thou Fount #280

Come thou fount of every blessing tune my heart to sing thy grace

Streams of mercy never ceasing call for songs of loudest praise

Teach me some melodious sonnet sung by flaming tongues above

Praise the mount I'm fixed upon it – mount of thy redeeming love

Hitherto thy love has blest me. Thou has brought me to this place

And I know thy hand will bring me safely home by thy good grace

Jesus sought me when a stranger wandering from the fold of God

He to rescue me from danger bought me with his precious blood

O to grace how great a debtor daily I'm constrained to be

Let thy goodness as a fetter bind my wandering heart to thee

Prone to wander Lord I feel it. Prone to leave the God I love

Here's my heart O take and seal it. Seal it for thy courts above

Prone to wander Lord I feel it. Prone to leave the God I love

Here's my heart O take and seal it. Seal it for thy courts above

As the morning dawns and evening fades you inspire songs of grace

That rise from earth to touch your heart and glorify your name

Your name is a strong and mighty tower

Your name is a shelter like no other

Your name Let the nations sing it louder

'Cause nothing has the power to save But your name

Jesus in your name we pray Come and fill our hearts today

Lord give us strength to live for you and glorify your name

Your name is a strong and mighty tower

Your name is a shelter like no other

Your name Let the nations sing it louder

'Cause nothing has the power to save

But your name is a strong and mighty tower

Your name is a shelter like no other

Your name Let the nations sing it louder

'Cause nothing has the power to save But your name

A thousand times I’ve failed still your mercy remains and should I stumble again still I’m caught in your grace

Everlasting your light will shine when all else fades Never-ending your glory goes beyond all fame

Your will above all else my purpose remains The art of losing myself in bringing you praise

Everlasting your light will shine when all else fades Never-ending your glory goes beyond all fame

In my heart in my soul Lord I give you control Consume me from the inside out Lord

Let justice and praise become my embrace To love you from the inside out

Everlasting you light will shine when all else fades Never-ending your glory goes beyond all fame

And the cry of my heart is to bring you praise from the inside out Lord my soul cries out

Everlasting you light will shine when all else fades Never-ending your glory goes beyond all fame

And the cry of my heart is to bring you praise from the inside out Lord my soul cries out Lord

Intro There are times & seasons when God is up to something…fresh. See what He is doing and go there with Him. STOP learned behavior and wait again with wonderment and expectancy. Hold on to the Adventure.

I. Discover What You Know & Don’t Know (v. 1-7) “Wisdom is knowing what you don’t know!” Clear up confusions Avoid: embarrassments, judgments, limitations Do not reduce to what you are comfortable with Seek the Fullness / Freshness

Separate Incidents Acts 2 (Jerusalem) Acts 8:14-17 (Samaria) Acts 19 (Ephesus)

Acts 8:14-17 (ESV) (14) Now when the apostles at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent to them Peter and John, (15) who came down and prayed for them that they might receive the Holy Spirit, (16) for he had not yet fallen on any of them, but they had only been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. (17) Then they laid their hands on them and they received the Holy Spirit.
