Join the Family: The Bride - Worship and Prayer

This last week we continued in our vision series with a teaching on what the identity of Bride means for the people of Saints’ Hill. The Bible begins with a marriage and ends with a marriage, and everything in between is about marriage. It’s the central image of God’s desire for humanity and humanity’s need of God. We are the woman at the well in John 4, and Jesus is the groom offering us himself. He wants to detach us from our false loves so that we can experience Him as the ultimate most satisfying love. As His betrothed, our lives then ought to take the shape of longing. We pray and we worship to encounter Him, to let his love wash over us, and to pour out our devotion to Him. We pray that the identity of the bride would begin to shape how you use your time, your energy, and your attention. There is nothing more valuable than being with Him, knowing Him, and loving Him.
