Order Of Worship
Call To Worship – Exodus 15:1-6
Prayer:
To be read aloud, together:
O God, the King of glory, you have exalted your only Son Jesus Christ with great triumph to your kingdom in heaven: Do not leave us comfortless, but send us your Holy Spirit to strengthen us, and exalt us to that place where our Savior Christ has gone before; who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, in glory everlasting. Amen.
SONG: GRACE ALONE
I was an orphan lost at the fall
Running away when I'd hear your call
But Father, you worked your will
I had no righteousness of my own
I had no right to draw near your throne
But Father, you loved me still
And in love before you laid the world's foundation
You predestined to adopt me as your own
You have raised me up so high above my station
I'm a child of God by grace and grace alone
You left your home to seek out the lost
You knew the great and terrible cost
But Jesus, your face was set
I worked my fingers down to the bone
Nothing I did could ever atone
But Jesus, you paid my debt
By your blood I have redemption and salvation
Lord, you died that I might reap what you have sown
And you rose that I might be a new creation
I am born again by grace and grace alone
I was in darkness all of my life
I never knew the day from the night
But Spirit, you made me see
I swore I knew the way on my own
Head full of rocks, a heart made of stone
But Spirit, you moved in me
At your touch my sleeping spirit was awakened
On my darkened heart the light of Christ has shone
Called into a Kingdom that cannot be shaken
Heaven's citizen by grace and grace alone
So I'll stand in faith by grace and grace alone
I will run the race by grace and grace alone
I will slay my sin by grace and grace alone
I will reach the end by grace and grace alone
TESTIMONY – Kevin and Liz Mello
READING OF THE WORD – GALATIANS 2:1-10
At the conclusion of the reading, the speaker will say, “The Word of the Lord,” to which we all reply:
Thanks Be To God
SONG: HERE IS LOVE
Here is love, vast as the ocean, lovingkindness as the flood
When the Prince of life, our ransom shed for us His precious blood
Who His love will not remember? Who can cease to sing His praise?
He can never be forgotten throughout Heav'n's eternal days
On the mount of crucifixion fountains opened deep and wide
Through the floodgates of God's mercy flowed a vast and gracious tide
Grace and love, like mighty rivers poured incessant from above
And Heav'n's peace and perfect justice kissed a guilty world in love
Let me all Thy love accepting, love Thee, ever all my days;
Let me seek Thy kingdom only and my life be to Thy praise;
Thou alone shall be my glory, nothing in the world I see.
Thou hast cleansed and sanctified me, Thou Thyself hast set me free.
Thou alone shall be my glory, nothing in the world I see.
Thou hast cleansed and sanctified me, Thou Thyself hast set me free.
Song: Singing In The Victory
I will not be anxious, Jesus you are near
The peace of God surrounding me, casting out all fear
The hand that holds the Heavens is the mighty hand that saves
The voice that calms the storming seas is calling me by name
I’m singing in the victory the victory of the cross
Resting in the shadow of Your redeeming love
I’m standing on the promise the promise of new life
'Cause I am Yours forever and Jesus You are mine
Jesus You are mine!
When I have forgotten the fullness of Your grace
Yes I remember Calvary when You took my place
There is no one like You God, love immeasurable and strong
There is no one like You God, so lead this heart to sing in awe
There is no one like You God, love immeasurable and strong
There is no one like You God, so lead this heart to sing in awe
Sermon: I’ll Go Where you Will Lead (Acts 16:6-17:15)
For those who call LWF their church home, Randy will lead a time of communion at the end of the sermon video.
SONG: SPIRIT SPEAKS
Your Spirit speaks, it moves in me
and I'm awakened to Your love
You're drawing me onto my knees
and I'm astounded by Your love
You spoke life into my lungs
You are the air I breathe, You are the air I breathe
Still You move inside of me
You are the song I sing, You are the song I sing
You cover me with arms that reach
and I'm amazed by Your sweet grace
You set me free, You washed me clean
and I'm forgiven by Your grace
With every breath I breathe, with every song I sing
I want to shout it out Lord, I am listening!
To every word You speak, I'll go where You will lead
And my whole life will be my greatest offering
Benediction:
May we be compelled by the love of God, the gospel of Jesus, and the presence of the Holy Spirit to pursue His mission for our good and His glory.
