Easter Sunday Morning, March 31, 2024"O Happy Day" ... John 21A message delivered by Pastor, Richard Fleming

"O Happy Day" is a hymn that celebrates the covenant with God and salvation in Jesus of the Non-Conformists in 18th Century England. It includes vivid imagery of the rejoicing its author, Philip Doddridge, felt for his savior and God. Popularized by a recording from the Edwin Hawkins Singers, this hymn has become a gospel music standard in the modern day.

We are called to spread the gospel, the good news of the God who created us, gave us grace before we knew we needed it, sent his Son to pay a debt that, even with all our might, we could not pay on our own. Support the show

Dieser Folge von «Ausgeglaubt» klopft den ersten von drei Gospel-Songs auf seine Geschichte und Bedeutung hin ab. «O Happy Day» fällt dabei allerdings ein bisschen aus der Reihe, da es sich um ein englisches Kirchenlied aus dem 18. Jahrhundert handelt, das erst durch das neue Arrangement des schwarzen Pianisten Edwin Hawkins im Jahr 1969 zum internationalen Hit wurde. Stephan und Manuel unterhalten sich über die mitreissende Kraft von Gospelsongs, über die beiden «Sister Act»-Filme, die das Genre weltweit wieder aufleben liessen – und über den Text von «O Happy Day», der doch eigentlich aus der Zeit gefallen ist. Dabei kommt es auch zur angeregten Auseinandersetzung um die christliche Taufe, die im Hintergrund dieses Liedes steht… viel Spass mit dieser Folge – und spätestens zu diesem Zeitpunkt legen wir euch nahe, doch mal in die Spotify-Playlist reinzuschauen (siehe Shownotes)!

Order of Service: - Prelude - Loving and Forgiving Psalm 103: Soloist: Loving and forgiving are you, O Lord; slow to anger,rich in kindness, loving and forgiving are you. All: Loving and forgiving… S: All my being, bless the Lord, bless the holy name of God. All my being, bless the Lord, remembering the goodness of God. All: Loving and forgiving… S: God forgives us all our sins, healing those who live in pain, saving us from final death. God fills us with goodness & love. All: Loving and forgiving… S: Good and gracious is the Lord, slow to anger, rich in love. God remembers not our sins; forgiving and loving is God. All: Loving and forgiving… S: As heaven soars above the earth, so great the love of God for us. As far as east is from the west, the Lord takes our sins from us. All: Loving and forgiving… - 1 Thessalonians 4: 13-18: But I do not want you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning those who have fallen asleep, lest you sorrow as others who have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will bring with Him those who sleep in Jesus. For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord will by no means precede those who are asleep. For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord. Therefore comfort one another with these words. - Devotion - Prayer - Hymn 590 - O Happy Day, When We Shall Stand - Blessing - Postlude Service Participants: Rev. Prof. Andy Schmidt (Preacher), Rev.

This is Joni Eareckson Tada and welcome to “Joni and Friends.” If there's one thing God has opened the eyes of my heart to, it is this: to live each day with an eye on eternity. Oh, my goodness… Live with the goal of investing in the heavenly kingdom. And there something else I might pray almost every morning, I’ll pray "Lord, I'm not satisfied with the Joni I was yesterday. Today, I want to partner with your Holy Spirit to be changed, be transformed. I want to become more like Jesus than I was yesterday." That's a great prayer, as well as a great perspective. And it’s why, every morning when I wheel into the Joni and Friends International Disability Center, our headquarters, I cannot help but sing. Coming through the front doors, it might be "Every Day with Jesus Is Sweeter Than the Day before” or going up the ramp to the 2nd floor it will be "Happy day, happy day, when Jesus washed my sins away — he taught me how to watch and pray, and live rejoicing every day. Happy day, happy day when Jesus washed my sins away." Some people ask why I sing so much, and I tell them that I have to. With me in this wheelchair I don't trust my emotions one bit; I know I am way too prone to let pain and paralysis ambush my attitude for the day, and so I rule my emotions by not just talking to my soul (as did King David when he said to himself, 'Oh soul, why art thou so downcast?'). No, more than talking to myself, I’ll singing to myself. Sometimes we are only prone to praise God or singing worship songs when life is good, and we feel that the coast is clear, the bills are paid, and it's smooth sailing. When circumstances are delightful, when things are good, we feel that God is good. But then if the circumstances turn sour, it's another story, isn’t it? When things go haywire, it’s “Okay, okay, God, what’s going on here? What’s up with this? Like what’s happening? Have you forgotten me here?” The sun does not always shine, birds do not always sing, and the sky is not always clear of clouds. Life is hard — and most often, that is when we have a tough time singing praise to the Lord. We’re so influenced, we’re so prone to let our circumstances — whether good or bad — we’re so inclined to let the situation of the day dictate our view of God for the moment. But time and again, the Bible tells us that God is the same good, happy Father in bright times, as He is in devastatingly difficult times. He does not change, no matter what our circumstances. Deuteronomy Chapter 7, verse 9 says, “Know therefore that your Lord your God is God; He is faithful. He is the faithful God, keeping His covenant of love to a thousand generations of those who love Him and keep His commands.” So friend, let that fact sink in and it’ll help you live each day with an eye on eternity. A fact like that will get you actively engaged in your own sanctification each morning, especially when you wake up, and who knows, you may be tone deaf, but He’ll put a song on your heart. The book of Hebrews describes God as the Father “with whom there is no shadow of turning.” Scripture alone should be our frame of reference for who the Lord is rather than our circumstances being that frame of reference. So today, whether it’s grand or gloomy, whether it’s happy or hard, sunshine or rainy, sunny or sour remember: Every Day with Jesus is Sweeter Than the Day Before.” By: Joni Eareckson Tada © Joni and Friends
