Theme:  The Rhythm of Generosity 📖Scripture Reading 2 Corinthians 9:6–8 (NKJV)    "He who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully. So let each one give as he purposes in his heart, not grudgingly or of necessity; for God loves a cheerful giver." ✝️ Hymn from Global Canticle Hymn Book   #4. Blood-Bought Praise Theme: Worship rooted in Christ’s sacrifice Scriptures: Romans 5:1 · Titus 3:4–7 Suggested Tune: Diademata Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Key: E♭ Major 1: This praise is not my own, It cost the Savior’s life. He bore the wrath alone, To end my endless strife. No merit do I bring, No song can earn His grace— But still I rise and sing, Blood-bought in holy place. 2: This praise is not for show, It flows from mercy’s flood. The cross has made it so— My worship sealed in blood. The nails, the thorn, the tree, The grave that could not stay— All echo back to me: Lift up your voice ...

Gospel TimeLoop Devotion Week 4 – October 2025   Presented by Pastor Chris S. Akpan   Theme: The Secret in Marriage – Revisited ✝️Gospel Diary Trickle B  🍁 Stanza 1 O Lord, You formed the union from dust and breath,   You shaped the rib and called it love.   In Your wisdom, You made two one,   A mystery wrapped in covenant fire. Spirit Echo:   “What I have joined, let no storm divide.” 🌼Stanza 2 The oil of unity flows down the altar,   Where hearts kneel and vows rise like incense.   You dwell where peace is planted deep,   And love is watered with grace.

💬 Scripture Reading:  Mark 12:41–44 (NKJV)   "…this poor widow has put in more than all those who have given to the treasury; for they all put in out of their abundance, but she out of her poverty put in all that she had, her whole livelihood." ☦️Gospel Diary Trickle B  Inspired by Luke 21:1–4 1️⃣ I saw the rich pour gold into the temple’s mouth,   Their hands full, their hearts half.   But a widow came with trembling grace,   Two copper coins, her all, her praise.   She gave not from surplus, but from soul’s depth.   She gave not to be seen, but to be known. 🌿Spirit Echo:   I measure not the weight of coin, but the weight of love. 2️⃣ The rhythm of heaven beats in hidden hands,   In quiet offerings, in unseen sacrifice.   She danced to the tune of surrender,   While others marched to pride’s parade.   Her gift was a whisper that shook eternity. 🪴 S...

Theme: Bold praise as spiritual warfare  Scriptures: Psalm 144:1 · Isaiah 54:17  Suggested Tune: Coronation  Meter: 8.6.8.6 D  Key: A Major  I’ll shout like David in the field,  Where giants used to stand.  My praise is more than song or shield—  It’s fire in my hand.  The battle bows before the sound  Of worship rising high.  The walls of fear come crashing down  When heaven hears my cry. I’ll dance like David in the storm,  Though armies press around.  My worship takes a warrior form,  And shakes the battleground.  No weapon formed shall steal my song,  No shadow dim my flame.  I shout like David, bold and strong—  In victory and shame. I’ll sing like David in the cave,  When silence fills the air.  My praise will rise, my soul will brave...
