Song of Gathering and Preparation The people of God always sang as they ascended the hill in Jerusalem up to the temple to worship (see Psalms 120-134). We, as well, prepare our hearts, minds and bodies for worship by singing about the God we serve.

Marching On By Chris Llewellyn | Gareth Gilkeson

© Capitol CMG Paragon (Admin. by Capitol CMG Publishing) and Rend Family Music (Admin. by Capitol CMG Publishing) CCLI Song # 7101183 -- CCLI License # 1693489

Let our praises remind all the darkness Of how great and how mighty our God is

For the battle belongs to the Lord and no one else

We are standing in holy defiance We’re declaring aloud in the silence

That the battle belongs to the Lord and no one else No one else

We’ll sing hallelujah For all Hell to hear Shout out hosanna

Above every fear Strongholds will crumble

Like castles of sand We are marching on We’re marchin' on

Your unstoppable kingdom advances As we take back the ground from the darkness

The battle belongs to the Lord and no one else

You’re the banner we raise in the chaos No, the gates of Hell won't stand against us

The battle belongs to the Lord and no one else No one else

In the chaos, the crisis, the troubles, the trials The shadows, the sorrows, the long nights, the hard fight

We are the prophets, the voice in the darkness Declaring the battle is Yours

Sing hallelujahShout out hosanna

Strongholds will crumble We're marching on, we're marching on

Call to Worship We read God’s Word, the Bible, together. It reveals to us who God is and what He expects of us.

Isaiah 5:15-16, 18-21 & 23-24 (ESV) Man is humbled, and each one is brought low, and the eyes of the haughty are brought low. But the LORD of hosts is exalted in justice, and the Holy God shows himself holy in righteousness. … Woe to those who draw iniquity with cords of falsehood, who draw sin as with cart ropes, who say: “Let him be quick, let him speed his work that we may see it; let the counsel of the Holy One of Israel draw near, and let it come, that we may know it!” Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter! Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes, and shrewd in their own sight! … who acquit the guilty for a bribe, and deprive the innocent of his right! Therefore, as the tongue of fire devours the stubble, and as dry grass sinks down in the flame, so their root will be as rottenness, and their blossom go up like dust; for they have rejected the law of the LORD of hosts, and have despised the word of the Holy One of Israel.

Prayer of Adoration and Confession — Jason Roland We pray together praising God for who He really is (Adoration) and admitting our inability to live up to what He expects of us (Confession).

Assurance of Pardon We again read God’s Word together and are reminded that mercy and grace are freely given to all who have faith in Jesus Christ.

Romans 8:1-4 (ESV) There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. For the law of the Spirit of life has set you free in Christ Jesus from the law of sin and death. For God has done what the law, weakened by the flesh, could not do. By sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and for sin, he condemned sin in the flesh, in order that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.

Worship Through Giving

We respond to the good news of God’s mercy and grace for us in Jesus by giving generously to the work of this church and the kingdom of God.

Be Thou My Vision Arrangement by Ascend The Hill | Ancient Irish Poem, ca. 8th cent./Trad. Irish folk melody, PD

Be Thou my vision O Lord of my heart Nought be all else to me, save Thou art

Thou my best thought, by day or by night Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light.

Be Thou my wisdom, Thou my true word I ever with Thee, Thou with me, Lord

Thou my great Father and I Thy true son; Thou in me dwelling, and I with Thee one.

Riches I heed not, nor 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.

O God be my everything, be my delight Be Jesus my glory, my soul satisfied (repeat)

My Jesus, You satisfy (repeat 3x)

High King of heaven, my vict’ry won, May I reach heaven's joys, O bright heaven's Sun!

Heart of my own heart, whatever befall, Still be my vision, O Ruler of all.Still be my vision, O Ruler of all.

Praise and Celebration Our response to God’s free grace is celebratory worship. We express our praise to God for who He is and what He has done for us.

Overcome By Chris Brown | Mack Brock | Steven Furtick

© Music by Elevation Worship Publishing (Admin. by Essential Music Publishing LLC) CCLI Song # 7067561 -- CCLI License # 1693489

Now the darkness fades into new beginnings As we lift our eyes to a hope beyond

All creation waits with an expectation To declare the reign of the Lord our God

We will not be moved when the earth gives way

For the Risen One has overcome And for every fear

there’s an empty grave For the Risen One has overcome

Now the silence breaks in the name of Jesus

As the heavens cry let the earth respond All creation shouts with a voice of triumph To declare the reign of the Lord our God



there’s an empty grave For the Risen One has overcome

He shall reign forever strongholds now surrenderFor the Lord our God has overcome

Who can be against us Jesus our defender

He is Lord and he has overcome (repeat)



there’s an empty grave For the Risen One has overcome (repeat)

O Praise The Name (Anástasis) By Benjamin Hastings | Dean Ussher | Marty Sampson

© 2015 © Hillsong Music Publishing (Admin. by EMI Christian Music Publishing) | CCLI Song # 7037787 -- CCLI License # 1693489

I cast my mind to Calvary Where Jesus bled and died for me

I see His wounds, His hands His feet My Saviour on that cursed tree

His body bound and drenched in tears They laid Him down in Joseph’s tomb

The entrance sealed by heavy stone Messiah still and all alone

O praise the name of the Lord our God O praise His name forevermore

For endless days we will sing Your praise Oh Lord, Oh Lord our God

Then on the third at break of dawn The Son of Heaven rose again

O trampled death, where is your sting? The angels roar for Christ the King



He shall return in robes of white The blazing sun shall pierce the night

And I will rise among the saintsMy gaze transfixed on Jesus’ face




For endless days we will sing Your praise Oh Lord, Oh Lord our God Oh Lord, Oh Lord our God

Confession of Faith As an expression of our faith in Jesus Christ in solidarity with His people, we declare the substance of what we believe.

From the New City Catechism: Q. 27. Are all people, just as they were lost through Adam, saved through Christ? A. No, only those who are elected by God and united to Christ by faith. Nevertheless God in his

mercy demonstrates common grace even to those who are not elect, by restraining the effects of sin and enabling works of culture for human well-being.

Kids’ Worship Dismissal Infants - Kindergarten are dismissed. Please see your child’s check-in name tag for class assignment.

Greeting Just as the Apostle Paul urged fellow believers to be hospitable, in the Gospel, Jesus has welcomed us - the worst of sinners - into His home and family. In the same spirit we greet each other to show the hospitality of Jesus.

Prayer of Thanksgiving and Intercession — Jason RolandWe, again, express in prayer our gratitude to God for what He has done and ask Him to continue to act for our good and the good of others in our community and world.

Proclamation of God’s Word — Tim Rice, Lead Pastor and Director of Church Planting A small portion of God’s Word is explained to us and applied to our lives and circumstances.

Song of Response We respond to the good news of God’s mercy and grace by singing again of His goodness and greatness.

King Of My Heart By John Mark McMillan | Sarah McMillan | © Meaux Jeaux Music (Admin. by Capitol CMG Publishing),

Raucous Ruckus Publishing (Admin. by Capitol CMG Publishing), and Remaining portion is unaffiliated CCLI Song # 7046145 -- CCLI License # 1693489

Let the King of my heart be The mountain when I run The fountain I drink from;

Oh He is my song

Let the King of my heart be The shadow where I hide The ransom for my life;

Oh He is my song

You are good, good, Oh/You are good, good, Oh

Let the King of my heart be The shadow where I hide The ransom for my life;

Oh He is my song

You are good, good, Oh/You are good, good, Oh

Let the King of my heart be The wind inside my sailsThe anchor in the waves;

Oh He is my song

Let the King of my heart be The wind inside my sailsThe anchor in the waves;

Oh He is my song

Let the King of my heart be The fire inside my veinsThe echo of my days;

Oh He is my song

You are good, good, Oh/You are good, good, Oh (repeat)

You're never gonna let … (repeat)


You are good, good, Oh … (repeat)


Benediction Because the hand of God’s wrath was raised against Jesus, we now receive the hand of God’s blessing as we are sent out to live our lives to the glory of God.

May the LORD bless you and keep you; the LORD make His face to shine upon you and be gracious to you;

the LORD turn His face toward you and give you His peace, both now and forevermore. Amen.

Seasons of the Cross The color green: A sign of life. In the plant kingdom, growth within an organism extends outward into tender green shoots, culminating in a blossom of life and a plant goes to seed, multiplying itself over and over again. On the cross, green is a symbol of the ongoing work of Christ in our hearts. Starting with the smallest seed, His work grows in us over our lifetime, shooting tendrils outward into the lives of others as His kingdom grows. Christ’s work is ongoing, vibrant and alive in the hearts of His people.

Scripture Passage and Sermon Outline

Proclamation of God’s Word Text: Proverbs 2:6, 3:21-32, 19:17 & 29:7 (ESV) Title: The Wisdom To Be Just Teacher: Tim Rice

2:6 For the LORD gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding; … 3:21 My son, do not lose sight of these — keep sound wisdom and discretion, 22 and they will be life for your soul and adornment for your neck. 23 Then you will walk on your way securely, and your foot will not stumble. 24 If you lie down, you will not be afraid; when you lie down, your sleep will be sweet. 25 Do not be afraid of sudden terror or of the ruin of the wicked, when it comes, 26 for the LORD will be your confidence and will keep your foot from being caught. 27 Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due, when it is in your power to do it. 28 Do not say to your neighbor, “Go, and come again, tomorrow I will give it”— when you have it with you. 29 Do not plan evil against your neighbor, who dwells trustingly beside you. 30 Do not contend with a man for no reason, when he has done you no harm. 31 Do not envy a man of violence and do not choose any of his ways, 32 for the devious person is an abomination to the LORD, but the upright are in his confidence. … 19:17 Whoever is generous to the poor lends to the LORD, and he will repay him for his deed. … 29:7 A righteous man knows the rights of the poor; a wicked man does not understand such knowledge.

Intro: How innate is your desire to be treated equitably?

GOD’S GOODNESS & JUSTICE Why can God alone guarantee ultimate justice?

RUINED & UNJUST How is it humbling when we realize we are guilty before God in His holiness?

JUSTICE SATISFIED IN CHRIST What has Jesus done to establish all that is righteous while turning evil to His own good and just purposes?

YOU CAN PRAY WITH US …

1. Worship the LORD for His perfect goodness. Praise Him, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, that He alone can guarantee justice because He is all-knowing (He cannot be fooled) and all-powerful (He cannot be evaded).

2. How have you been a participant in what is unjust, even if only by neglecting others in need? Confess your pride and hardness of heart to Jesus, asking Him to forgive you and to change you.

3. Give thanks to Jesus for how He has worked on our behalf to ultimately establish goodness and guarantee justice. Thank Him for fulfilling the Father’s good design and for conquering all the powers of selfishness.

4. Who do you know that is oppressed? Pray for them, asking the Lord to work on their behalf, both to sustain them in their suffering and to work to relieve them by working on their behalf to establish His goodness.

5. Ask the Holy Spirit to bear the fruit of goodness in you. Ask Him to help you to grow in your own integrity and in your resolve to work to build what is good and to fight against evil where it is within your power.
