(Deu 16:19 NIV) How can you believe since you accept glory from one another but do not seek the glory that comes from the only God? (Joh 5:44 NIV)

Lutheran Order of service in isiZulu/seTswana

Posted on July 25, 2014 by Wilhelm Weber

MissionThe Lutheran Order of Service for the 6th Sunday after Trinity is available here in isiZulu and seTswana. Today it comes with a sermon based on God’s word through the apostle St. Peter in his 1st  letter in the 2nd chapter the verses 2-10 written by my brother missionary P.C. Weber (LC Ohlangeni, KZN) in isiZulu (wz1440140727 n Tr 6) and translated as usual seTswana (wt1439140727 nTr6) by my father Rev. E.A.W.Weber DD (Welbedacht, KZN).

The readings for this 6th Sunday after Trinity are:

Old Testament:           Isaiah 43:1-7

The Epistle:                  Romans 6:3-8

The Gospel:                  Matthew 28:16-20

Psalm:                          67:2-3.5-6

The liturgical colour is green.

May you have a very blessed weekend and have time to meditate on the watchword for this week: But now, this is what the LORD says– he who created you, Jacob, he who formed you, Israel: “Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine. (Isa 43:1 NIV)

Lord of all power and might, author and giver of all good things, graft into our hearts the love of Your name, increase in us true religion, nourish us with all goodness, and of Your great mercy keep us in the same; through Jesus Christ, our Lord, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever.

If you are called to preach this weekend, may the triune God give you joy and strength, enthusiasm and wisdom, knowledge and insight – and the true words and pictures to preach his holy will faithfully according to his most precious revelation of his will and promises in both the Old and New Testament! However if you are not preaching, but listening – then listen as if God is talking to you + His precious gospel is “the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes.” (Rom 1:16 NIV)

We thank the Lutheran Heritage Foundation for supporting the distribution of hard-copies of these orders of worship and sermons throughout Southern Africa. If you also want a copy please do not hesitate to subscribe by writing to EAWWeber@bundunet.co.za.

gallowsRescue those being led away to death; hold back those staggering toward slaughter. If you say: “But we knew nothing of this,” does not he that weighs the heart perceive it? Does not he who guards your life know it? Will he not repay everyone according to what they have done? (Prov 24:11-12 NIV) Jesus said: “Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of one of these, you did not do to me.” (Mt 25:45 NIV)
