 Morning Worship March 29, 2020

  • Greetings 
  • Call to Worship: Psalm 16:7-11

 I bless the Lord who gives me counsel;

    in the night also my heart instructs me.

8 I have set the Lord always before me;

    because he is at my right hand, I shall not be shaken.

 

9 Therefore my heart is glad, and my whole being rejoices;

    my flesh also dwells secure.

10 For you will not abandon my soul to Sheol,

    or let your holy one see corruption.

 

11 You make known to me the path of life;

    in your presence there is fullness of joy;

    at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.

  • Invocation
  • Confession of Sin

Our gracious Father, you sent your Son to die and rise to new life in order that death might be brought to an end and that we too might live a new life.  Yet, foolishly, we have chosen death over life.  In our thoughts, words and deeds we have rebelled against you and your intentions for us.  In so doing, we have broken our fellowship with you whose love is better than life and whom to know is life itself.  In so doing, we have hurt others, sometimes unintentionally and sometimes deliberately, and have diminished their lives.  In so doing, we have damaged ourselves who have been created to reflect your beauty.  Father, forgive us our sins for Jesus' sake.  Amen.

  • Promise of Forgiveness: Isaiah 43:25; Psalm 103:11-12

The LORD says, “I am he who blots out your transgressions for my own sake, and I will not remember your sins.  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.”                        

  • Old Testament Reading: Psalm 16:1-6

Preserve me, O God, for in you I take refuge.
2 I say to the Lord, “You are my Lord;
    I have no good apart from you.”

3 As for the saints in the land, they are the excellent ones,
    in whom is all my delight.

4 The sorrows of those who run after another god shall multiply;
    their drink offerings of blood I will not pour out
    or take their names on my lips.

5 The Lord is my chosen portion and my cup;
    you hold my lot.

6 The lines have fallen for me in pleasant places;
    indeed, I have a beautiful inheritance.

  • Affirmation of Faith: Heidelberg Catechism, Questions, 46, 47, and 49

Q: What do you mean by saying, “He ascended to heaven”?

A: That Christ, while his disciples watched, was taken up from the earth into heaven and remains there on our behalf until he comes again to judge the living and the dead.

Q: But isn’t Christ with us until the end of the world as he promised us?

A: Christ is true human and true God. In his human nature Christ is not now on earth; but in his divinity, majesty, grace, and Spirit he is never absent from us.

Q: How does Christ’s ascension to heaven benefit us?

A: First, he is our advocate in heaven in the presence of his Father. Second, we have our own flesh in heaven as a sure pledge that Christ our head will also take us, his members, up to himself. Third, he sends his Spirit to us on earth as a corresponding pledge. By the Spirit’s power we seek not earthly things, but the things above, where Christ is, sitting at God’s right hand.

  • Prayers for the Church and the World and 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. Amen.

  • Sermon Text: John 14:1-7

  “Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me. 2 In my Father's house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also. 4 And you know the way to where I am going.” 5 Thomas said to him, “Lord, we do not know where you are going. How can we know the way?” 6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. 7 If you had known me, you would have known my Father also. From now on you do know him and have seen him.”

  • Preaching of the Word:   Rev. Eric Huber

Troubled?

  • Benediction: 2 Thessalonians 3:16

Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times in every way. The Lord be with you all.
