Thank you for joining us in worship today. We praise God for what He is doing and how lives are being changed. At Faith Assembly of God, our services are designed to be powerful and inspiring. Our goal is to incorporate video, drama, multi-media, and a blend of contemporary music with heartfelt worship to complement the Biblical message of the day. We talk about the issues you face every day and connect God’s wisdom and Word to your life. Our prayer is that our services challenge and touch you as you grow in your relationship with Christ and with those around you. Sharing Life Together,
Rodney Murphy

What' s the Point? Submit to the Good Shepherd’s control.
What' s the word? Submit– to give up right-to give over control. What' s the verse? The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside quiet waters. He stores my soul. He guides me along the right paths bringing honor to His name. He guides me in the paths of righteousness for His namesake. Psalm 23:1-3

Necessary Sins - Lying
Memorize: Search me, O God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious
thoughts. Point out anything in me that offends you, and lead me along the path of
everlasting life. Psalm 139:23-24 (NLT)
Our God _________________ lying. Proverbs 12:22; John 8:44
How do you lie?
1. We lie to ______________________. Jeremiah 9:5
2. We lie to ______________________. Acts 5:4
3. We lie to ______________________. Psalm 119:27-29; 1 John 2:4
Why do you lie?
I lie because: ___________________________________________________________
John 8:32
Think about it:
- Who do you lie most often to: others, God, or yourself?
- What do you think might be the cause behind your lies?
- What steps do you need to take to stop believing and speaking lies and start living in
the truth?
