3 Hymn of Praise 9:30/11:00 Before the Throne of God Above We Pray for Our Congregation, the Church, and the World First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people... This is good, and it is pleasing in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. 1 Timothy 2.1, 3-4 Public Confession of Sin O Lord, no day of my life has passed that has not proved me guilty in Your sight. Prayers have been uttered from a prayerless heart; praise has been often praiseless sound; my best services are filthy rags. Lord Jesus, though my sins rise to heaven, Your merits soar above them; though unrighteousness weighs me down to hell, Your righteousness exalts me to Your throne. I appeal from the throne of Your perfect justice to Your throne of boundless grace. Grant me to hear Your voice assuring me that I am guilty, but pardoned; lost, but saved; wandering, but found; sinning, but cleansed. Give me perpetual broken heartedness, keep me always clinging to Your cross, flood me every moment with descending grace

4 Private Confession Words of Assurance If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 1 John Prayer of Intercession/Offertory Prayer Mr. Russell 8:00 Mr. Lafferty 9:30 Dr. Deison 11:00 Musical Offering 8:00 Mr. Colin Howland, organ 9:30/11:00 I Sing the Greatness of Our God Bock Chancel Choir Brian Piper, conductor I sing the greatness of our God, that made the mountains rise; that spread the flowing seas aborad and built the lofty skies. I sing of the Wisdom that ordained the sun to rule the day; the moon shines full at His command and all the skies obey. I sing the greatness of our God that filled the earth with food; He formed all creatures with His Word and then prounounced them good. Lord, how Thy wonders are displayed, where'e'er I turn my eye; if I survey the ground I walk or look up to the sky. There is no plant or flower below, but make Thy glories known; the clouds arise, the tempests blow, by order from Thy throne. While all that borrows life from Thee is ever in Thy care, and everywhere that we can be, Lord, Thou art present there. * The Greeting of Peace Minister: We are the body of Christ; in one Spirit we were all baptized in one body. Let us then pursue all that makes for peace and builds up our common life. The peace of the Lord be with you always. People: And also with you. The Service of Friendship If you are seated on the left end of the pew, please take the Service of Friendship pad, fill out the information and pass it down. When it arrives at the other end of the pew, pass it back, taking note of those who are seated in your row. * The Scripture Reading Hosea 1 The word of the Lord that came to Hosea, the son of Beeri, in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash, king of Israel. 2 When the Lord first spoke through Hosea, the Lord said to Hosea, Go, take to yourself a wife of whoredom and have children of whoredom, for the land commits great whoredom by forsaking the Lord. 3 So he went and took Gomer, the daughter of Diblaim, and she conceived and bore him a son. 4 And the Lord said to him, Call his name Jezreel, for in just a little while I - 4 -

5 will punish the house of Jehu for the blood of Jezreel, and I will put an end to the kingdom of the house of Israel. 5 And on that day I will break the bow of Israel in the Valley of Jezreel. 6 She conceived again and bore a daughter. And the Lord said to him, Call her name No Mercy, for I will no more have mercy on the house of Israel, to forgive them at all. 7 But I will have mercy on the house of Judah, and I will save them by the Lord their God. I will not save them by bow or by sword or by war or by horses or by horsemen. 8 When she had weaned No Mercy, she conceived and bore a son. 9 And the Lord said, Call his name Not My People, for you are not my people, and I am not your God. 10 Yet the number of the children of Israel shall be like the sand of the sea, which cannot be measured or numbered. And in the place where it was said to them, You are not my people, it shall be said to them, Children of the living God. 11 And the children of Judah and the children of Israel shall be gathered together, and they shall appoint for themselves one head. And they shall go up from the land, for great shall be the day of Jezreel.

And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them. Prayer Prayer (saying together) 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
