Call to Worship

Psalm 91:1–4

[1] He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High
will abide in the shadow of the Almighty.
[2] I will say to the LORD, “My refuge and my fortress,
my God, in whom I trust.”
[3] For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler
and from the deadly pestilence.
[4] He will cover you with his pinions,
and under his wings you will find refuge;
his faithfulness is a shield and buckler. (ESV)

Prayer of Repentance

Remember, O Lord, Your great mercy and love, for they are from of old. Remember not the sins of my youth, and my rebellious ways: according to Your love remember me, for You are good, O Lord. For the sake of Your name, O Lord, forgive my iniquity, though it is great. Turn to me and be gracious to me, for I am lonely and afflicted. The troubles of my heart have multiplied; free me from my anguish. Look upon my affliction and my distress and take away all my sins.

Benediction

May The LORD incline your heart toward Him and cause you to walk in all His ways.Day and night may your prayers be near to him.May the LORD maintain your cause and the cause of all His people so that you and all the peoples of the earth may know that the LORD is God, and there is none other!In Jesus' name we pray, Amen.
