Welcome & Announcements

 

Call to Worship
Fear not, for I am with you;
be not dismayed, for I am your God;
I will strengthen you, I will help you,
I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

Therefore I will praise you, LORD, among the nations;
I will sing the praises of your name.

—Isaiah 41:10 & Psalm 18:49

 

How Firm a Foundation
How firm a foundation
Ye saints of the Lord
Is laid for your faith
In his excellent Word

What more can he say
Than to you he hath said
To you, who for refuge
To Jesus have fled

Fear not, I am with thee
O be not dismayed
For I am thy God
And will still give thee aid

I’ll strengthen thee, help thee
And cause thee to stand
Upheld by my righteous
Omnipotent hand

When through the deep waters
I call thee to go
The rivers of woe
Shall not thee overflow

For I will be with thee
Thy troubles to bless
And sanctify to thee
Thy deepest distress

When through fiery trials
Thy pathways shall lie
My grace, all sufficient
Shall be thy supply

The flame shall not hurt thee
I only design
Thy dross to consume
And thy gold to refine

The soul that on Jesus
Hath leaned for repose
I will not, I will not
Desert to its foes

That soul, though all hell
Should endeavor to shake
I’ll never, no never
No never forsake

John Rippon’s Selection of Hymns, 1787, alt. Tune, FOUNDATION, American folk hymn

 

Your Grace is Enough
Great is your faithfulness, O God
You wrestle with the sinner’s heart
You lead us by still waters and to mercy
And nothing can keep us apart

So remember your people
Remember your children
Remember your promise, O God

Your grace is enough
Your grace is enough
Your grace is enough for me

Great is your love and justice God
You use the weak to lead the strong
You lead us in the song of your salvation
And all your people sing along

So remember your people
Remember your children
Remember your promise, O God

Your grace is enough
Your grace is enough
Your grace is enough for me

Your grace is enough
Your grace is enough
Your grace is enough for me

So remember your people
Remember your children
Remember your promise, O God

Your grace is enough
Your grace is enough
Your grace is enough for me

Your grace is enough
Your grace is enough
Your grace is enough for me, for me

Revelation Song
Worthy is the Lamb who was slain
Holy, holy is he

Sing a new song to him who sits on
Heaven’s mercy seat

Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty
Who was and is and is to come

With all creation I sing
Praise to the King of kings
You are my ev’rything and I will adore you

Clothed in rainbows of living color
Flashes of lightning, rolls of thunder

Blessing and honor
Strength and glory and power be
To you the only wise King

Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty
Who was and is and is to come

With all creation I sing
Praise to the King of kings
You are my ev’rything and I will adore you

Filled with wonder, awestruck wonder
At the mention of your name

Jesus your name is power
Breath and living water
Such a marvelous myst’ry……

Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty
Who was and is and is to come

With all creation I sing
Praise to the King of kings
You are my ev’rything and I will adore you

Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty
Who was and is and is to come

With all creation I sing
Praise to the King of kings
You are my ev’rything and I will adore you

Sermon
“The Spirit, the Water & the Blood”
1 John 5:1-12

 

Prayer of Confession
Almighty God and Gracious Father,
have mercy on us and forgive our sin.
Forgive when we live as orphans,
when you have called us to be sons and daughters.
And pardon our rebellion and disobedience.
Strengthen our faith and help us in our unbelief.
As the heavens declare your glory,
be glorified in our lives, in what we do,
where we live, love, play and work.
Cause your Name to be great,
through our broken expressions of praise,
until Jesus comes. Amen.

God With Us
You’ve come to bring peace, to be love
To be nearer to us

You’ve come to bring life, to be light
To shine brighter in us
O Emmanuel, God with us

Our Deliverer, you are Savior
In your presence we find our strength
Over everything, our redemption

For your honor and name

You’ve come to take sin, to bear shame
And to conquer the grave
O Emmanuel, God with us

Our Deliverer, you are Savior
In your presence we find our strength
Over everything, our redemption
God with us, you are God with us

You are here, you are holy
We are standing in your glory

Over everything, our redemption
