Scripture: Remember your leaders, those who spoke to you the word of God. Consider the outcome of their way of life, and imitate their faith. (HEBREWS 13:7) Obey your leaders and submit to them, for they are keeping watch over your souls, as those who will have to give an account. Let them do this with joy and not with groaning, for that would be of no advantage to you. (HEBREWS 13:17) We ask you, brothers, to respect those who labor among you and are over you in the Lord and admonish you, and to esteem them very highly in love because of their work. Be at peace among yourselves. (1 THESSALONIANS 5:12-13) Prayer (by Pastor Chester): Father God, we lift up to You all of our Hosanna spiritual leaders – our ordained officers, our Pastor, Elder Heather, Elder Patrick, Deacon Chong, Deacon Gloria, Deacon Waywah, Deacon Angela, Minister Samantha, Director Rachel, Director Trey, and all the lay servants who lead by the example of Christ in word and deed. As Your Word commands, we remember our leaders, those who speak to us the Word of God. Let us consider the outcome of their way of life, and imitate their faith. Fill our Session and our Pastor with godly oversight for the governing and guarding of Your Church, in preaching and teaching and correcting and administering faithfully Your resources that will grow Your Kingdom through Hosanna. Let us consider the way of life of our Deacons and imitate their faith, as they seek to be above-reproach, blameless and clothed by Your righteousness and holiness, serving and praying and loving Your Church in all they say and do. Continue to fill with Your holy Spirit Minister Samantha. Lead us to the way of Jesus through her and raise her faith to be imitated among us. Speak Your Word through the mouth of Director Rachel to all the Hosanna children she teaches weekly with Your affections and love. Amplify your Word and praises in us with Director Trey’s guidance in media technology. We obey our leaders. We submit to them, as they keep watch over our souls. We do so with joy and not with groaning. We respect them as Your laborers, and we join them to imitate their example. Holy Spirit, help us be teachable, and admonish us through them. We esteem them very highly in love because of their work that brings us peace. Anoint them with this blessed prayer today, through Jesus Christ our sole leader and chief servant we pray, amen & amen.
