Amen, Hallelujah and Maranatha
What Is Amen?
In Hebrew, it means 'let it be so'. It is a plea to God for a response to prayer, one way of saying that it will be done by God, a 'Yes' to God's vision and a statement of confidence in God.
What Is Hallelujah and Alleluia?
Hallelujah in Hebrew means "Praise be to God". In Latin form, it is known as alleluia. It's not supposed to stop at our lips, the Christian should be an alleluia from head to foot! We are to praise God with lips, with body, with heart, and with deed.
What Is Maranatha ?
Maranatha means "our Lord comes," or "Lord, come quickly". This phrase is how some early Christians greeted each other. The use comes from Revelation 22:20, where it is used as a plea or prayer.

The Name of God - Branch
Branch
Jeremiah 33:15 In those days and at that time I will make a righteous Branch sprout from David's line; he will do what is just and right in the land.
This prophetic title of Christ speaks of the Messiah who came of “the seed of David according to the flesh” (Romans 1:3), and who will be revealed in His earthly glory as King of kings, and Lord of lords. Jeremiah describes Him as the Branch of Righteous, therefore qualified to execute judgment and righteousness in the earth when He sets up His rule.
Jesus, I acknowledge that you come in the flesh and that you are 100% man and 100% God. As the Branch of David, you came to die for man’s sin but 3 days later you resurrected. You are a God that is alive. I know you will return as a Judge and not as a Savior to judge the world, therefore I want to share your love to my unsaved friends so that they too can be with you in heaven forever.

Why Do I Have To Go To Church?
What Is Church? The word "church," is translated from a word that means an assembly of people and the center of attention is Jesus Christ.
Matthew 18: 20 NIV For where two or three come together in my name, there am I with them."
Why Do I Have To Go To Church? After Jesus died on a cross to pay for our sins and was raised from the dead to make us a new creation. Jesus is alive and through his Holy Spirit, He breathed on His Church which is the gathering of His people.
Why Do I Have To Go To Church? Because it is the closeness where we find protection from the sinful and evil forces of this world.
Why Do I Have To Go To Church? Because we are loved, encouraged, strengthened and uplifted by the fellowship of the Church. The true Church is people who are filled with Jesus Christ's Holy Spirit, loving each other, care for one another and helping each other.
Hebrews 10:24 NIV And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds
Why Do I Have To Go To Church? Sin, the evil forces at work in this world and the world's worries are trying to separate us from the fellowship of Christ's Holy Spirit which is in His Church, the gathering of his people. Alone, we are at the mercy of the devil, just waiting to "snatch us up" into a bitter life and eternal death. In the fellowship of His Church we have the power of Almighty God to overcome the powers of sin and evil.
Why Do I Have To Go To Church? Jesus died for our sins, was raised from the dead, and ascended into heaven, His bodily presence left us until He returns to judge all people, on the Day of Judgment. His Holy Spirit is here but Jesus needs us to carry His message of salvation and right living before God to the world
