Call to Worship – Psalm 71:14-18

All Read Together:

14 But I will hope continually
and will praise you yet more and more.
15 My mouth will tell of your righteous acts,
of your deeds of salvation all the day,
for their number is past my knowledge.
16 With the mighty deeds of the Lord God I will come;
I will remind them of your righteousness, yours alone.
17 O God, from my youth you have taught me,
and I still proclaim your wondrous deeds.
18 So even to old age and gray hairs,
O God, do not forsake me,
until I proclaim your might to another generation,
your power to all those to come.

Hymn of Adoration – Blessed Assurance, Jesus Is Mine

  1. Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine!
    Oh, what a foretaste of glory divine!
    Heir of salvation, purchase of God,
    Born of His Spirit, washed in His blood.

    This is my story, this is my song,
    Praising my Savior all the day long;
    This is my story, this is my song,
    Praising my Savior all the day long.

  2. Perfect submission, perfect delight,
    Visions of rapture now burst on my sight:
    Angels descending bring from above
    Echoes of mercy, whispers of love.

  3. Perfect submission, all is at rest,
    I in my Savior am happy and blest;
    Watching and waiting, looking above,
    Filled with His goodness, lost in His love.

Scripture Reading – Ephesians 2:1-10

Leader Reads:

1 And you were dead in the trespasses and sins 2 in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience— 3 among whom we all once lived in the passions of our flesh, carrying out the desires of the body and the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, like the rest of mankind. 4 But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, 5 even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved— 6 and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, 7 so that in the coming ages he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. 8 For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, 9 not a result of works, so that no one may boast. 10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.

Hymn of Assurance – All I Have Is Christ

  1. I once was lost in darkest night, yet thought I knew the way.
    The sin that promised joy and life, had led me to the grave.
    I had no hope that You would own, a rebel to Your will.
    And if You had not loved me first, I would refuse you still.

  2. But as I ran my hell-bound race, indifferent to the cost,
    You looked upon my helpless state, and led me to the cross.
    And I beheld God’s love displayed, You suffered in my place.
    You bore the wrath reserved for me, now all I know is grace.

    Hallelujah! All I have is Christ.
    Hallelujah! Jesus is my life.

  3. Now, Lord, I would be Yours alone, And live so all might see
    The strength to follow Your commands, could never come from me.
    Oh, Father, use my ransomed life, in any way You choose,
    And let my song forever be, my only boast is You.

Sermon

Titus 2:1, 7-8, 15

1 But as for you, teach what accords with sound doctrine. 2 Older men are to be sober-minded, dignified, self-controlled, sound in faith, in love, and in steadfastness. 3 Older women likewise are to be reverent in behavior, not slanderers or slaves to much wine. They are to teach what is good, 4 and so train the young women to love their husbands and children, 5 to be self-controlled, pure, working at home, kind, and submissive to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be reviled. 6 Likewise, urge the younger men to be self-controlled. 7 Show yourself in all respects to be a model of good works, and in your teaching show integrity, dignity, 8 and sound speech that cannot be condemned, so that an opponent may be put to shame, having nothing evil to say about us. 9 Bondservants are to be submissive to their own masters in everything; they are to be well-pleasing, not argumentative, 10 not pilfering, but showing all good faith, so that in everything they may adorn the doctrine of God our Savior.

11 For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation for all people, 12 training us to renounce ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright, and godly lives in the present age, 13 waiting for our blessed hope, the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, 14 who gave himself for us to redeem us from all lawlessness and to purify for himself a people for his own possession who are zealous for good works.

15 Declare these things; exhort and rebuke with all authority. Let no one disregard you.

Hymn of Response – Be Thou My Vision

  1. Be Thou my Vision, O Lord of my heart;
    Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art:
    Thou my best thought, by day or by night,
    Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light.

  2. Be Thou my Wisdom, and Thou my true Word;
    I ever with Thee and Thou with me, Lord:
    Thou my great Father, I Thy true son,
    Thou in me dwelling, and I with Thee one.

  3. Riches I heed not, or man’s empty praise
    Thou mine inheritance, now and always:
    Thou and Thou only, first in my heart,
    High King of heaven, my treasure Thou art.

  4. High King of heaven, my victory won,
    May I reach heaven’s joys, O bright heav’n’s Sun!
    Heart of my one heart, whatever befall,
    Still be my Vision, O Ruler of all.

Benediction

Leader:  

May you go refreshed in the new life Jesus brings.
Go and make disciples.
