LORD’S DAY WORSHIP

The Lord is my light and my salvation;

    whom shall I fear?

The Lord is the stronghold of my life;

    of whom shall I be afraid?

When evildoers assail me

    to eat up my flesh,

my adversaries and foes,

    it is they who stumble and fall.

Though an army encamp against me,

    my heart shall not fear;

though war arise against me,

    yet I will be confident.

One thing have I asked of the Lord,

    that will I seek after:

that I may dwell in the house of the Lord

    all the days of my life,

to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord

    and to inquire in his temple.

Call To Worship

Psalm 27:1-4

The grace of God has reached for me And pulled me from a raging sea And I am safe on this solid ground, The Lord is my salvation!

I will not fear when darkness falls His strength will help me scale these walls I'll see the dawn of the ri -sing sun The Lord is my salvation!

Who is like the Lord our God, Strong to save, faithful in love? My debt is paid, and the vic - try won; The Lord is my salvation!

My hope is hidden in the Lord, He flowers each promise of His word; When winter fades I know spring will come the Lord is my salvation!

In times of waiting, times of need When I know loss, when I am weak I know His grace will re - new these days The Lord is my salvation!

Who is like the Lord our God, Strong to save, faithful in love? My debt is paid, and the vic - try won; The Lord is my salvation!

Glory be to God the Father, Glory be to God the Son, Glory be to God the Spirit; The Lord is my salvation!

8 If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 10 If we say we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.

Prayer of Confession (all): Most holy and merciful Father, we confess to you and to one another, that we have sinned against you by what we have done and by what we have left undone We have not loved you with our whole heart and mind and strength. We have not fully loved our neighbors as ourselves. We have not always had in us the mind of Christ. You alone know how often we have grieved you by wasting your gifts, and by wandering from your ways. Forgive us, most merciful Father, and free us from our sin.

1 But if anyone does sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous. 2 He is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the sins of the whole world.

Call to Confession

1 John 1:8-10

Assurance of Pardon

1 John 2:1-2

Your labor is not in vain Though the ground underneath you Is cursed and stained Your planting and reaping are never the same But your labor is not in vain!

Your labor is not unknown Though the rocks they cry out and the sea it may groan The place of your toil may not seem like a home But your labor is not unknown!

"I am with you, I am with you I am with you, I am with you For I have called you, called you by name Your labor is not in vain!"

The vineyards you plant will bear fruit The fields will sing out and rejoice with the truth, For all that is old will at last be made new The vineyards you plant will bear fruit!

The houses you labored to build Will finally with laughter and joy be filled The serpent that hurts a and destroys shall be killed And all that is broken be healed

Those who hope in the Lord Will renew their strength They will run and not grow weary They will walk and not be faint And like a flight upon an ea - gle’s wings He will give the weary strength

So lift your eyes up to the sky To the One who hears you when you cry

Those who hope in the Lord Will renew their strength They will run and not grow weary They will walk and not be faint And like a flight upon an eagle’s wings, He will give, He will give, He will give the weary strength

No Other Gods

Exodus 20:1-3

Sermon Series: The God Who Triumphs

Pastor Jeremiah Wade

11

Before the throne of God above I have a strong and perfect Plea A great High Priest whose name is Love Who ever lives and pleads for me

My name is graven on His hands My name is written on His heart I know that while in Heaven He stands No tongue can bid me thence depart No tongue can bid me thence depart

When Satan tempts me to despair And tells me of the guilt within Upwards I look and see Him there Who made an end to all my sin

Because the sinless Savior died My sinful soul is counted free For God the Just is satisfied To look on Him and pardon me To look on Him and pardon me

Behold Him there, the risen Lamb My perfect spotless Righteousness The great unchangeable I Am
