JIL Church Strathmore

CYN Alberta, are you ready? 🔥
After 4 years, we're back!

ALBERTA YOUTH CONFERENCE 2026
📍 Calgary, AB
📅 July 23–24, 2026

The wait is over.
Come expectant. Come ready.

Being “SOLID” as a CHURCH means being firmly grounded in Christ, united in faith, and steadfast in truth. A solid church is not easily shaken by trials, false teachings, or changing trends because its foundation is Jesus Christ.
That is who we are for Christ!

Every Sunday move us one step closer to Christ. Let these three questions help us grow deeper in faith:
* What did I learn about God today?
* What is God asking me to do this week?
* How will I live differently because of what I heard?
Let this be our prayer:
"Lord, don't let me leave church the same way. Help me to know You more deeply, love You more sincerely, and obey Your Word more faithfully. Let what I will receive transform my life and bless others. Amen."
See you this Sunday at 10AM!

What a powerful message tonight as a reminder from Moses’ encounter with God. Here is our take away message to ponder and meditate from our Prayer Revival Meeting tonight.

Exodus 3:4–6 - “Do not come any closer. Take off your sandals, for the place where you are standing is holy ground.”

The ground itself was not naturally holy, it became holy because God’s presence was there. This passage has a powerful application for us as we enter a place of worship.

Significance for believers when entering the church

1. Enter with reverence because God is present.
Just as Moses approached God with awe and respect, we should enter the church with hearts that honor Him. Worship begins with recognizing whose presence we are entering.

2. Prepare your heart before worship.
Taking off his sandals symbolized humility and setting aside anything that would dishonor God. Today, we prepare our hearts by confessing sin, forgiving others, and coming with sincerity.

“Lord, search my heart and make me ready to worship You.”

3. Worship is about meeting God, not merely attending a service.
Moses encountered God personally. Likewise, the church is not simply a place for programs or gatherings- it is where God’s people come together to meet Him, hear His Word, and respond in worship.

4. Respond with humility and obedience.
After meeting God, Moses listened to His call and obeyed. True worship should transform us and move us to live according to God’s will.

5. Treat God’s house with honor.
Because the church is dedicated to God’s worship, our attitude, words, and actions should reflect respect. We should avoid distractions, unnecessary conversations during worship, and anything that takes attention away from God.

Before entering the church, ask ourselves:

* Am I coming to meet God or just to attend?
* Is there anything in my heart I need to surrender?
* Am I ready to worship with reverence and joy?
* Will my words and actions help others focus on God.

The church building is not holy because of its structure; it is holy because God’s people gather in His presence. Like Moses at the burning bush, we are invited to approach God with reverence, humility, and hearts ready to worship. When we honor His presence, we become more attentive to His voice and more willing to obey His calling.

“God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self control.” - 2 Timothy 1:7 ESV

Gentleness is a calm, caring strength that reflects Christ’s meek and loving heart. It tempers strength with mercy, opening hearts to God’s Spirit.

Breakthrough gentleness is the key to bringing healing to every kind of wound, restoring hearts and relationships through the Spirit’s touch:

◾Restores relationships: Gentleness in words and in deeds heal divisions and conflict.
◾Attracts God’s presence: Spirit-endowed gentleness gives Him delight.
◾Demonstrates power under control: Gentleness reveals the strength of the Spirit through genuine humility.

Breakthrough Gentleness ushers in God’s transformative power, restoring hearts, relationships, and communities through the Spirit’s tender touch.

Faithfulness is God’s measuring rod, revealing how we steward what He has entrusted to us. Thanks be to God for an impactful Sunday! May God find us faithful in everything we do.
