*CALL TO WORSHIP:
Psalm 117:1-2 Praise the LORD, all nations! Extol him, all peoples!
For great is his steadfast love toward us, and the faithfulness of
the LORD endures forever. Praise the LORD!
*OPENING HYMN:
(#103E) O Come, My Soul, Bless Thou the Lord
PRAYER OF ADORATION AND INVOCATION
*THE LORD'S PRAYER
Our Father, who art in
heaven, hallowed be Thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done, on
earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and
forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into
temptation. But deliver us from evil. For Thine is the kingdom, and
the power, and the glory, forever and ever. Amen.
*GLORIA PATRI (#572)
THE LAW OF GOD – “Follow Me”
CONFESSION OF SIN
Father
God, Your ways are holy, perfect, and altogether righteous. But we
have denied You by our thoughts, words, and actions. We have had
unclean hearts. We have not loved You as we should. We have sought
to justify ourselves in the sight of men, but have not sought Your
face. We have not had a right and appropriate fear of You. And our
love for You has been weak.
Please
be our helper as we come to You this morning. We come as a community
of faith that You have called together for such a time as this. We
come in the perfect righteousness of Your Son, Jesus Christ. We come
with boldness in Him. We come to You now with both fear and love -
with that fear of You which is the beginning of wisdom - and with
true love for You, because You first loved us. We repent of all
known sin, and trust in Your unfailing love for Your children, In
Jesus’ Name. Amen.
DECLARATION OF PARDON
[Romans 8:12-15]
So then, brothers,
we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh. For
if you live according to the flesh you will die, but if by the Spirit
you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live. For all who
are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God. For you did not receive
the spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you have received
the Spirit of adoption as sons, by whom we cry, “Abba! Father!”

Heidelberg Catechism Question 1
Q: What is your
only comfort in life and death?
A: That I am not
my own, but belong with body and soul, both in life and in death, to
my faithful Savior Jesus Christ. He has fully paid for all my sins
with His precious blood, and has set me free from all the power of
the devil. He also preserves me in such a way that without the will
of my heavenly Father not a hair can fall from my head; indeed, all
things must work together for my salvation. Therefore, by His Holy
Spirit He also assures me of eternal life and makes me heartily
willing and ready from now on to live for Him.
