PRELUDE – “Only Jesus” By Casting Crowns
WELCOME & CALL TO WORSHIP – Hear this call to worship from Isaiah 35:1-4
The wilderness and the dry land shall be glad;
the desert shall rejoice and blossom like the crocus;
it shall blossom abundantly
and rejoice with joy and singing.
The glory of Lebanon shall be given to it,
the majesty of Carmel and Sharon.
They shall see the glory of the Lord,
the majesty of our God.
Strengthen the weak hands,
and make firm the feeble knees.
Say to those who have an anxious heart,
“Be strong; fear not!
Behold, your God
will come with vengeance,
with the recompense of God.
He will come and save you.”
Song –
“Everlasting God” by Brenton Brown and Ken Rile
CONFESSION OF SIN – Isa. 8:19-21
And when they say to you,
“Inquire of the mediums
and the necromancers who chirp and mutter,”
should not a people inquire of their God?
Should they inquire of the dead on behalf of the living?
To the teaching and to the testimony!
If they will not speak according to this word,
it is because they have no dawn.
They will pass through the land,
greatly distressed and hungry.
And when they are hungry, they will be enraged
and will speak contemptuously against their king and their God,
and turn their faces upward.
ASSURANCE OF PARDON –
The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light;
those who dwelt in a land of deep darkness, on them has light shone.
You have multiplied the nation;
you have increased its joy;
they rejoice before you as with joy at the harvest,
as they are glad when they divide the spoil.
For the yoke of his burden, and the staff for his shoulder,
the rod of his oppressor,
you have broken as on the day of Midian.
For every boot of the tramping warrior in battle tumult
and every garment rolled in blood will be burned as fuel for the fire.
For to us a child is born, to us a son is given;
and the government shall be upon his shoulder,
and his name shall be called
Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
Of the increase of his government and of peace there will be no end,
on the throne of David and over his kingdom,
to establish it and to uphold it
with justice and with righteousness from this time forth and forevermore.
The zeal of the Lord of hosts will do this.

“My hope lives not because I am not a sinner,
but because I am a sinner for whom Christ died;
my trust is not that I am holy,
but that being unholy, HE is my righteousness.
My faith rests not upon what I am or shall be or feel or know,
but in what Christ is, in what He has done, and in what He is now doing for me.
Hallelujah!”

“Yet even now,” declares the Lord,
“return to me with all your heart,
with fasting, with weeping, and with mourning;
and rend your hearts and not your garments.”
Return to the Lord your God,
for he is gracious and merciful,
slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love;
and he relents over disaster.
Who knows whether he will not turn and relent,
and leave a blessing behind him
ASSURANCE OF PARDON – Joel 2:21-23
“Fear not, O land;
be glad and rejoice,
for the Lord has done great things!
Fear not, you beasts of the field,
for the pastures of the wilderness are green;
the tree bears its fruit;
the fig tree and vine give their full yield.
“Be glad, O children of Zion,
and rejoice in the Lord your God,
for he has given the early rain for your vindication;
he has poured down for you abundant rain,
the early and the latter rain, as before.

There is none like you among the gods, O Lord,
nor are there any works like yours.
All the nations you have made shall come
and worship before you, O Lord,
and shall glorify your name.
For you are great and do wondrous things;
you alone are God.
Teach me your way, O Lord,
that I may walk in your truth;
unite my heart to fear your name.
I give thanks to you, O Lord my God, with my whole heart,
and I will glorify your name forever.
For great is your steadfast love toward me;
you have delivered my soul from the depths of Sheol.

“Everything That Has Breath” by Matt Redman
CONFESSION OF SIN–
Neh. 9:16-17
But they and our fathers acted presumptuously
and stiffened their neck and did not obey your commandments.
They refused to obey
and were not mindful of the wonders that you performed among them,
but they stiffened their neck
and appointed a leader to return to their slavery in Egypt.
But you are a God ready to forgive,
gracious and merciful,
slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love,
and did not forsake them.
ASSURANCE OF PARDON-
Psalm 103:8-12
The Lord is merciful and gracious,
slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love.
He will not always chide,
nor will he keep his anger forever.
He does not deal with us according to our sins,
nor repay us according to our iniquities.
For as high as the heavens are above the earth,
so great is his steadfast love toward those who fear him;
as far as the east is from the west,
so far does he remove our transgressions from us.

“How Great Is Our God” by Chris Tomlin, Ed Cash, and Jesse Reeves
CONFESSION OF SIN –
Jesus, forgive my sins.
Forgive the sins that I remember, and the sins I have forgotten.
Forgive my many failures in the face of temptation,
and those times when I have been stubborn in the face of correction.
Forgive the times I have been proud of my own achievements
and those when I have failed to boast in your works.
Forgive the harsh judgments I have made of others,
and the leniency I have shown myself.
Forgive the lies I have told to others,
and the truths I have avoided.
Forgive me the pain I have caused others
and the indulgence I have shown myself.
Jesus, have mercy on me and make me whole.
Amen.
ASSURANCE OF PARDON –
Who is a God like you, pardoning iniquity
and passing over transgression
for the remnant of his inheritance?
He does not retain his anger forever,
because he delights in steadfast love.
He will again have compassion on us;
he will tread our iniquities underfoot.
You will cast all our sins
into the depths of the sea.
You will show faithfulness to Jacob
and steadfast love to Abraham,
as you have sworn to our fathers
from the days of old.

How does Christ’s return “to judge the living and the dead” comfort you?
In all distress and persecution,
with uplifted head I confidently await the very judge
who has already offered himself to the judgment of God in my place
and removed the whole curse from me.
Christ will cast all his enemies and mine into everlasting condemnation,
but will take me and all his chosen ones to himself into the joy and glory of heaven.
Song –
“O Worship the King”by Chris Tomlin, Johann Michael Hayden, Robert Grant
CONFESSION OF SIN
“Hear this pronouncement of judgement in Romans 2:6-11:
He will render to each one according to his works:
to those who by patience in well-doing seek for glory and honor and immortality,
he will give eternal life;
but for those who are self-seeking and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, there will be wrath and fury.
There will be tribulation and distress
for every human being who does evil, the Jew first and also the Greek,
but glory and honor and peace
for everyone who does good, the Jew first and also the Greek.
For God shows no partiality.
In light of God’s coming, let’s take a moment to confess our sins before our holy judge.”
ASSURANCE OF PARDON – Psalm 32:1-2
“If we by faith embrace salvation in Christ, the Lord declares over us:
Blessed is the one whose transgression is forgiven,
whose sin is covered.
Blessed is the man whom the LORD counts no iniquity,
and in whose spirit there is no deceit.

O Lord God of heaven,
the great and awesome God
who keeps covenant and steadfast love
with those who love him and keep his commandments,
let your ear be attentive and your eyes open,
to hear the prayer of your servant
that I now pray before you day and night
for the people of Israel your servants,
confessing the sins of the people of Israel,
which we have sinned against you.
“In light of the ways we too have disregarded the laws of the Lord, let us take a
moment to confess our sins to our God who is faithful to redeem the outcast.”
ASSURANCE OF PARDON – “Listen to this assurance of pardon from 1 Peter 2:9”
But you are a chosen race,
a royal priesthood,
a holy nation,
a people for his own possession,

who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.
Once you were not a people,
but now you are God’s people;
once you had not received mercy,
but now you have received mercy.”

WELCOME & CALL TO WORSHIP – Hebrews 3:7-15
Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says,
“Today, if you hear his voice,
do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion,
on the day of testing in the wilderness,
where your fathers put me to the test
and saw my works for forty years.
Therefore I was provoked with that generation,
and said, ‘They always go astray in their heart;
they have not known my ways.’
As I swore in my wrath,
‘They shall not enter my rest.’”
Take care, brothers,
lest there be in any of you an evil, unbelieving heart,
leading you to fall away from the living God.
But exhort one another every day,
as long as it is called “today,”
that none of you may be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.
For we have come to share in Christ,
if indeed we hold our original confidence firm to the end.
As it is said,
“Today, if you hear his voice,
do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.”
Song –
“All Praise to Him” by Bob Kauflin and Matt Merker
CONFESSION OF SIN –
EVERYONE:
Gracious God,
we confess that we have longed too much for the comforts of this world.
We have loved the gifts more than the Giver.
In your mercy, help us to see that all the things we pine for are shadows,
but you are substance;
that they are quicksands,
but you are a mountain;
that they are shifting,
but you are an anchor.
We plead your forgiveness on the merits of Jesus Christ.
Accept his worthiness for our unworthiness,
his sinlessness for our transgressions,
his fullness for our emptiness,
his glory for our shame,
his righteousness for our dead works,
his death for our life.
We pray in Jesus name. Amen.
ASSURANCE OF PARDON – Ezekiel 36:25-27
You shall be clean from all your uncleannesses,
and from all your idols I will cleanse you.
And I will give you a new heart,
and a new spirit I will put within you.
And I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh
and give you a heart of flesh.
And I will put my Spirit within you,
and cause you to walk in my statutes
and be careful to obey my rules.

CONFESSION OF SIN – Isaiah 1:11-17
What to me is the multitude of your sacrifices? says the Lord;
I have had enough of burnt offerings of rams
and the fat of well-fed beasts;
I do not delight in the blood of bulls,
or of lambs, or of goats.
When you come to appear before me,
who has required of you
this trampling of my courts?
Bring no more vain offerings;
incense is an abomination to me.
New moon and Sabbath and the calling of convocations –
I cannot endure iniquity and solemn assembly.
Your new moons and your appointed feasts my soul hates;
they have become a burden to me;
I am weary of bearing them.
When you spread out your hands,
I will hide my eyes from you;
even though you make many prayers,
I will not listen;
your hands are full of blood.
Wash yourselves; make yourselves clean;
remove the evil of your deeds from before my eyes;
cease to do evil, learn to do good;
seek justice, correct oppression;
bring justice to the fatherless, plead the widow’s cause.
ASSURANCE OF PARDON – Isaiah 1:18
Come now, let us reason together, says the LORD;
though your sins are like scarlet,
they shall be as white as snow;
though they are red like crimson,
they shall become like wool.
