Jacob Deshazer

It was but some time ago that we gathered together for a book study about how the daily habit of family worship shapes the hearts of our little ones. During our time, the story of Mr. Jacob DeShazer was brought before us—a most encouraging example of God blessing the efforts of faithful parents who greatly desire to bring up their children in the instruction of the Lord.

One February Evening

February 12 recording, Ezekiel Chapter 2: 1  And he said unto me, Son of man, stand upon thy feet, and I will speak unto thee.  2  And the spirit entered into me when he spake unto me, and set me upon my feet, that I heard him that spake unto me.  3  And he said unto me, Son of man, I send thee to the children of Israel, to a rebellious nation that hath rebelled against me: they and their fathers have transgressed against me, even unto this very day.  4  For they are impudent children and stiffhearted. I do send thee unto them; and thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD.  5  And they, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear, (for they are a rebellious house,) yet shall know that there hath been a prophet among them.  6  And thou, son of man, be not afraid of them, neither be afraid of their words, though briers and thorns be with thee, and thou dost dwell among scorpions: be not afraid of their words, nor be ...

Song of Solomon Chapter 1

April 2024 recording, Song of Solomon Chapter 1: Ito ang pinakamagandang awit ni Solomon: Ang Unang Awit Babae: Akong ito'y pinupupog, sinisiil mo ng halik; ang dulot ng pag-ibig mo'y mainam pa sa alak. Ang taglay mong halimuyak, saan kaya itutulad? Simbango ng pangalan mong ang samyo'y malaganap, kaya lahat ng dalaga ay iyo ngang nabibihag. Ako ngayon ay narito, isama mo kahit saan, at ako ay iyong dalhin sa silid mong pahingahan. Tiyak akong liligaya ngayong ikaw ay narito, ang nais ko ay madama ang alab ng pag-ibig mo; pagsinta mo'y mas gusto ko kaysa alinmang inumin; hindi ako nagkamali na ikaw nga ang ibigin. Dalaga sa Jerusalem, ang ganda ko'y kayumanggi; katulad ko'y mga toldang sa Kedar pa niyayari, tulad ko ri'y mga tabing sa palasyo ng hari. Huwag akong hahamakin nang dahil sa aking kulay, pagkat itong aking balat ay nasunog lang sa araw. Itong mga kapatid ko'y hindi ako kinalugdan, nagkaisa silang ako'y pagbantayin ng ubasan.  ...

The Last Week of August

After the patient space of one full year dedicated to the humble discipline of Family Worship, it hath now pleased the LORD to mercifully birth the reading of the Holy Scripture into four new households this year. This is a visible testament to the Sovereign’s pleasure! Our own young ones, having been diligently instructed in this sacred practice, have carried the custom learned in our home directly into their respective dwellings. With a commendable zeal, they now intentionally read the Scriptures to their own unbelieving families—a work of bold, spontaneous evangelism. A visible stirring is already observed amongst those who have heard the Living Word thus plainly read. The very heartbeat of this ministry in the home is to magnify the reality of God's great glory as the Scriptures are opened and the Psalms are either read or sung—and by the whole family participating in unison. The precious fruit of all this labor, however, is not presumed by us, but is dutifully left to God’s ow...

Family Worship

So keep these words deep in your heart and in your soul, and have them fixed on your hand for a sign and marked on your brow; Teaching them to your children, and talking of them when you are at rest in your house or walking by the way, when you go to sleep and when you get up: Writing them on the pillars of your houses and over the doors of your towns: So that your days, and the days of your children, may be long in the land which the Lord by his oath to your fathers said he would give them, like the days of the eternal heavens. For if you take care to keep all the orders which I give you, and to do them; loving the Lord your God and walking in all his ways and being true to him: Deuteronomy 11:18-22 / 6:7-9 The gift of family worship, was given to us April of last year and has continued non-stop 7 days a week till this day. It also gave birth to the weekly prayer meeting in which the whole gathering participates, all thanks be to God for the great kindness He evidenced through the exa...

Our Family Worship Channel

We are opening our channel to everyone who find joy in the worship of God. The only requirement is a humble heart. Join us without any obligation, and start the worship of God in your own homes. Here is our Telegram link . Photo Credit Our daily Family Worship with the whole church, consistently upheld by LORD, is now on its 15th month. Every 9:30 in the evening, Monday to Sunday, the church gathers to read Scripture, share thoughts, and sing/read the Psalmody to the LORD. What started off as a 15-minute family covenant quickly spread like fire among the saints, with worship going for as long as 45 minutes to an hour. Some of the children have also started an afternoon family worship for those who work the night shift. It so pleased the Lord to birth the reading of scripture in one of the homes of a dear saint where she reads with her parents and sibling who are unbelievers, but now look forward to the reading of scripture. Truly if we have great joy in honoring the Lord, he will give...
