WTTW OUR PRAISE

Blessed Assurance

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

  • 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.

    WTTW HIS BODY, HIS BLOOD


    MONDAY



    Psalm 95:6



    Come, let us bow down in worship,

    let us kneel before the LORD our Maker;



    GOD'S BODY & BLOOD



    PREPARATION



    "Elements"



    To participate in the Lord’s Supper you will need a piece of bread & a small cup of juice or wine.



    "Heart"



    The Apostle Paul in 1 Corinthians 11:27-28 says, “Therefore, whoever eats and drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of sinning against the body and blood of the Lord. A man ought to examine himself before he eats of the bread and drinks of the cup. For anyone who eats and drinks without recognizing the body of the Lord eats and drinks judgment on himself.



    PRAISE



    Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord, God of power and might: Heaven and Earth are full of you glory. Hosanna, Hosanna, Hosanna in the highest. Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord. Hosanna in the highest.



    LORD’S SUPPER



    In the night in which he was betrayed,

    our Lord Jesus took bread,

    and gave thanks; broke it,

    and gave it to his disciples

    saying: Take and eat;

    this is my body, given for you.



    Do this in remembrance of me.



    Again, after supper,

    He took the cup, gave thanks,

    and gave it for all to drink,

    saying: This cup is

    the new covenant in my blood,

    shed for you and for all people

    for the forgiveness of sin.



    Do this in remembrance of me



    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 trespasses,

    as we forgive those who trespass

    against us.

    And lead us not into temptation,

    but deliver us from evil.

    For thine is the kingdom,

    the power and the glory.

    For ever and ever.

    Amen



    COMMUNION SCRIPTURES



    Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation, the old is gone, the new has come. 2 Corinthians 5:17



    Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God—this is your spiritual act of worship. Romans 12:1



    All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness. 2 Timothy 3:16



    Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6-7



    We proclaim to you what we have seen and heard, so that you also may have fellowship with us. And our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ. 1 John 1:3



    “Come, follow me,” Jesus said, “and I will make you fishers of men.” Matthew 4:19    





    COMMUNION



    The body of Christ, given for you.

    (take & eat the piece of bread)



    The blood of Christ, shed for you.

    (take & drink the juice or wine)



    CLOSING PRAYER



    We give you thanks,

    almighty God, that you

    have refreshed us

    through the healing

    power of this gift of

    life, and we pray that

    in your mercy you

    would strengthen us,

    through this gift,

    in faith toward you and in

    fervent love toward one

    another; for the sake of

    Jesus Christ our Lord.

    Amen

    Psalm 95:2



    Let us come before him with thanksgiving and extol him with music and song.



    OUR PRAYER:



    Father, I abandon myself into your hands;

    do with me what you will.

    Whatever you may do, I thank you:

    I am ready for all, I accept all.

    Let only your will be done in me,

    and in all Your creatures,



    I wish no more than this, O Lord.



    Into your hands I commend my soul;

    I offer it to you with all the love of my

     heart, for I love you Lord,

    and so I need to give myself,

    to surrender myself into your hands,



    without reserve, and with boundless confidence,



    For you are my Father



    In Jesus Name. Amen.

    What Can Wash Away My Sin?

  • What can wash away my sin?
    Nothing but the blood of Jesus;
    What can make me whole again?
    Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

    • Oh! precious is the flow
      That makes me white as snow;
      No other fount I know,
      Nothing but the blood of Jesus.
  • For my cleansing this I see—
    Nothing but the blood of Jesus!
    For my pardon this my plea—
    Nothing but the blood of Jesus!


  • Nothing can my sin erase
    Nothing but the blood of Jesus!
    Naught of works, 'tis all of grace—
    Nothing but the blood of Jesus!


  • This is all my hope and peace—
    Nothing but the blood of Jesus!
    This is all my righteousness—
    Nothing but the blood of Jesus!

    WTTW HIS BLESSING


    God's Blessing:  2 Corinthians 4:8-10



    We are pressed on every side by troubles, but not crushed and broken.    We are perplexed because we don’t know why things happen as they do, but we don’t give up and quit. We are hunted down, but God never abandons us. We get knocked down, but we get up again and keep going. These bodies of ours are constantly facing death just as Jesus did; so it is clear to all it is only the living Christ within [who keeps us safe].



    Go with this Assurance. In the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Amen.

    WTTW OUR CREED


    Psalm 95:1



    Come, let us sing for joy to the LORD;

    let us shout aloud to the Rock of our salvation.



    OUR CREED



    NiCENE CREED



    We believe in one God,

    The Father, the Almighty,

    maker of heaven and earth,

    of all that is, seen and unseen.



    We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ,

    The only Son of God,

    Eternally begotten of the Father,

    God from God, Light from Light,

    true God from true God,

    begotten, not made,

    of one Being with the Father.

    Through him all things were made.

    For us and for our salvation

    He came down from heaven:

    by the power of the Holy Spirit

    He became incarnate from the Virgin Mary,

    and was made man.

    For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate,

    He suffered death and was buried.

    On the third day he rose again

    In accordance with the Scriptures;

    He ascended into heaven

    and is seated at the right hand of the Father.

    He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead,

    and his kingdom will have no end.



    We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life,

    who proceeds from the Father and the Son.

    With the Father and the Son he is worshiped and glorified.

    He has spoken through the Prophets.

    We believe in one holy catholic and apostolic Church.

    We acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins.

    We look for the resurrection of the dead,

    and the life of the world to come.



    Amen

    Man of Sorrows, What a Name

    http://www.hymnal.net/hymn.php/h/108

  • "Man of Sorrows," what a name
    For the Son of God who came
    Ruined sinners to reclaim!
    Hallelujah! what a Savior!


  • Bearing shame and scoffing rude,
    In my place condemned He stood;
    Sealed my pardon with His blood;
    Hallelujah! what a Savior!


  • Guilty, vile, and helpless, we,
    Spotless Lamb of God was He;
    Full redemption—can it be?
    Hallelujah! what a Savior!


  • Lifted up was He to die,
    "It is finished!" was His cry;
    Now in heaven exalted high;
    Hallelujah! what a Savior!


  • When He comes, our glorious King,
    To His kingdom us to bring,
    Then anew this song we'll sing
    Hallelujah! what a Savior!
