About LIVE

Welcome to L.I.V.E.

We believe, that within Emmanuel Baptist Church, God has placed a myriad of gifts to be used to worship and glorify Him. The Word says that God inhabits the praises of His people and we are a people desiring to be inhabited! Praise plows the ground for the seed that is to be planted when the Word is taught (Hosea 10:11). L.I.V.E. unites together as the Levites did in the Old Testament to bring Praises and Glory to our King!

Our Mission:

L.I.V.E. is committed to using the gift of music and song:

  • to proclaim the Gospel message of Jesus Christ to the lost bringing restoration to the hearts of all people;
  • to usher/lead the congregation into the presence of God through Praise and Worship
  • to study and show ourselves approved unto God through training and application of His Word

Our Purpose:

To serve the body of Christ by using our gifts to

  • lead others is praise and worship and through the direction of the Holy Spirit,
  • create an atmosphere where God’s people can freely
  • and openly express their praise, adoration, and worship to Him.

Join us as we embark on a journey for excellence in our spiritual development, praise, and our worship. We are totally committed to God and our music ministry is not to entertain but for the edifying of the body of God with His Word through song. We believe that God deserves the best we have to offer; after all God has given one of his greatest creations, L.I.V.E.

Yours in Christ,
L.I.V.E President


L.I.V.E. Alive: Praise is What We Do

Why We Sing Before the Word
2 Chronicles 8

14 And he appointed, according to the order of David his father, the courses of the priests to their service, and the Levites to their charges, to praise and minister before the priests, as the duty of every day required: the porters also by their courses at every gate: for so had David the man of God commanded.

Who We Sing For
2 Chronicles 20

19 And the Levites, of the children of the Kohathites, and of the children of the Korhites, stood up to praise the LORD God of Israel with a loud voice on high.

How We Sing
2 Chronicles 29

30 Moreover Hezekiah the king and the princes commanded the Levites to sing praise unto the LORD with the words of David, and of Asaph the seer. And they sang praises with gladness, and they bowed their heads and worshipped.

How Long We Will Stand
Nehemiah 9

5 Then the Levites, Jeshua, and Kadmiel, Bani, Hashabniah, Sherebiah, Hodijah, Shebaniah, and Pethahiah, said, Stand up and bless the LORD your God for ever and ever: and blessed be thy glorious name, which is exalted above all blessing and praise.

 

How We Got Here
Jeremiah 31

8 Behold, I will bring them from the north country, and gather them from the coasts of the earth, and with them the blind and the lame, the woman with child and her that travaileth with child together: a great company shall return thither.
9 They shall come with weeping, and with supplications will I lead them: I will cause them to walk by the rivers of waters in a straight way, wherein they shall not stumble: for I am a father to Israel, and Ephraim is my firstborn.
10 Hear the word of the LORD, O ye nations, and declare it in the isles afar off, and say, He that scattered Israel will gather him, and keep him, as a shepherd doth his flock.
11 For the LORD hath redeemed Jacob, and ransomed him from the hand of him that was stronger than he.
12 Therefore they shall come and sing in the height of Zion, and shall flow together to the goodness of the LORD, for wheat, and for wine, and for oil, and for the young of the flock and of the herd: and their soul shall be as a watered garden; and they shall not sorrow any more at all.
13 Then shall the virgin rejoice in the dance, both young men and old together:
