Call To Worship: Great Is The Lord
Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised,
and His greatness is unsearchable.
One generation shall commend Your works to another,
and shall declare Your mighty acts.
On the glorious splendor of Your majesty,
and on Your wondrous works, I will meditate.
They shall speak of the might of Your awesome deeds,
and I will declare Your greatness.
They shall pour forth the fame of Your abundant goodness
and shall sing aloud of Your righteousness.
The Lord is gracious and merciful,
slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love.
The Lord is good to all,
and His mercy is over all that He has made.
Source: Psalm 145:3-9
Classic Prayer: Carlo Carretto
Creed: What is Prayer?
Leader: What is prayer?
People: Prayer is turning my heart toward God, to listen and to speak with Him.
Leader: What should you seek in prayer?
People: In prayer, I should seek not only God’s provision for my needs, but fellowship with God, who made me for fellowship with Himself.
Leader: Why should you pray?
People: I should pray because God calls me to do so, because I was made for fellowship with Him, because I need the help of His Holy Spirit, and because He has promised to answer the prayers of His people.
Confession of Sin
Almighty and merciful God,
we have erred and strayed from Your ways like lost sheep.
We have followed too much
the devices and desires of our own hearts.
We have offended against Your holy laws.
We have left undone those things which we ought to have done;
and we have done those things which we ought not to have done.
O Lord, have mercy upon us.
Spare those who confess their faults.
Restore those who are penitent,
according to Your promises declared to the world
in Christ Jesus, our Lord.
And grant, O merciful God, for His sake,
that we may live a holy, just, and humble life
to the glory of Your holy name.
Amen.
