Welcome

Prelude

~God Calls Us to Worship Him~

Call to Worship Psalm 33:8-15; 18-19

Pastor

Let all the earth fear the LORD; let all the inhabitants of the world

stand in awe of him! For he spoke, and it came to be; he commanded,

and it stood firm.

Congregation

The LORD brings the counsel of the nations to nothing; he frustrates

the plans of the peoples. The counsel of the LORD stands forever, the

plans of his heart to all generations.

Pastor

Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD, the people whom he

has chosen as his heritage! The LORD looks down from heaven; he

sees all the children of man; from where he sits enthroned he looks

out on all the inhabitants of the earth, he who fashions the hearts of

them all and observes all their deeds.

Congregation

Behold, the eye of the LORD is on those who fear him, on those who

hope in his steadfast love, that he may deliver their soul from death

and keep them alive in famine.

Hymn Thy God Reigneth! (69)

Prayer of Worship

~God Renews Us in Christ~

We Corporately Confess Our Sin and Need

Almighty God, you have raised Jesus from death to life, and crowned

him Lord of all. We confess that we have not bowed before him, or

acknowledged his rule in our lives. We have gone along with the

ways of the world, and failed to give him glory and obedience. We

blush. Forgive us and deliver us from temptation and sin, that we may

be your faithful people, obeying the commands of our Lord Jesus

Christ, who rules the world and is head of the church, his body. In his

name we pray, Amen.

We Silently Confess Our Sins

Hymn Jesus Is King (CCLI#251645)

Jesus is King and I will extol Him,

Give Him the glory, and honor His name.

He reigns on high, enthroned in the heavens,

Word of the Father, exalted for us.

We have a Hope that is steadfast and certain,

Gone through the curtain and touching the throne.

We have a Priest who is there interceding,

Pouring His grace on our lives day by day.

We come to Him, Our Priest and Apostle,

Clothed in His glory and bearing His name,

Laying our lives with gladness before Him;

Filled with His Spirit, we worship the King.

O holy One, our hearts do adore You;

Thrilled with Your goodness we give You our praise.

Angels in light with worship surround Him.

Jesus, our Savior, forever the same.

Jesus is King and I will extol Him,

Give Him the glory, and honor His name.

He reigns on high, enthroned in the heavens,

Word of the Father, exalted for us.

God’s Grace in Christ Hebrews 1:1-3

Long ago, at many times and in many ways, God spoke to our fathers

by the prophets, but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son,

whom he appointed the heir of all things, through whom also he

created the world. He is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact

imprint of his nature, and he upholds the universe by the word of his

power. After making purification for sins, he sat down at the right

hand of the Majesty on high…

Hymn: Rejoice, the Lord Is King (309)

We Confess our Faith Heidelberg Catechism Q 26

Pastor

What do you believe when you say: I believe in God the Father

almighty, Creator of heaven and earth?

All

That the eternal Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who out of nothing

created heaven and earth and all that is in them, and who still upholds

and governs them by His eternal counsel and providence, is, for the

sake of Christ His Son, my God and my Father. In Him I trust so

completely as to have no doubt that He will provide me with all things

necessary for body and soul, and will also turn to my good whatever

adversity He sends me in this life of sorrow. He is able to do so as

almighty God, and willing also as a faithful Father.
