Daily meditation on God's word is more important to us than food, as Jesus said: "Man shall not live on bread alone but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God."

Daily meditation - Monday 21st of April 2008

	"Do not add to what I command you and do not subtract from it, but keep the commands of the Lord your God that I give you."
	Deut 4:2

Monday 21 /4/2008

Ever meant to do something you never got around to? If you're anything like me, your excuse is probably that you meant to do it well and that it would take more time or effort or resources than you can give. In Luke 22, the disciples follow to the letter Jesus' instructions on the last Passover meal when Jesus would institute the most intimate of covenants with them. Amazingly "They left and found things just as Jesus had told them"(Lk 22:13). God doesn't make mistakes.

Obedience takes faith and that can be scary. But remember our faith is never blind because God is God. His plan is perfect.

God requires obedience more than the fanfare of sacrifices and 'worthy' offerings (1 Sam 15:22). God doesn't want the best in the eyes of the world, just our best. The verse above reminds us of a simple truth. Obedience, by definition, is immediate and implicit. Obedient dog

RIVERS OF LIFE CHURCH INFORMATION

Rivers of life news

Rivers of Life Churches

Rivers of Life churches are evangelical and charismatic. The Oxford church meets one mile from the city centre in Marston. We have grown out of the Rivers of Life family of churches, formed in about 1965. We are English speaking congregations but have a strong Latin input and we have many Spanish speaking churches. There are two Rivers of Life churches in the UK – one in Oxford and the other in Bangor, North Wales, and about 80 other churches around the world.

Our beliefs in practice

We believe that God adds to the church as it follows the same principles and practices as the early church did in the Acts of the Apostles. We believe passionately that Jesus’ people live to glorify Him in praise and worship, to be formed into His loving family and to pray for and reach out to the world around. Our meetings are in the style of the early church with everyone participating in Bible reading, prayer, praise and worship. with raising of hands, dancing, singing in the spirit, etc. We are members of the Evangelical Alliance.
