O For a Thousand

 

Confession of SinHeavenly Father, we bow down before you because you and you alone are worthy of our praise and adoration. Surely your mighty arm is not too short to save us. Surely your ears are not too dull to hear us. But our sins have separated us from you, a gracious, loving Father. Thank you for the blood of Jesus your Son, our Redeemer, who completely satisfies our need for perfect righteousness.

 

Confession of SinO God, create within us clean hearts that we might love you, clean hands that we might serve you, and clean lips, that we might glorify your awesome and holy name. Amen   

Silent time for personal confession

O the deep, deep love of Jesus,Vast, unmeasured, boundless, free!

Rolling as a mighty oceanIn its fullness over me,

Underneath me, all around me,Is the current of His love:

Leading onward, leading homewardTo my glorious rest above.

O the Deep, Deep Love of Jesus

O the deep, deep love of Jesus,Spread His praise from shore to shore!

How He loveth, ever loveth, Changeth never, nevermore;

How He watches o’er His loved ones,Died to call them all His own;How for them He intercedeth,

Watcheth o’er them from the throne.

O the deep, deep love of Jesus Love of every love the best;

‘Tis an ocean vast of blessing,‘Tis a haven sweet of rest,

O the deep, deep love of Jesus,‘Tis a heav’n of heav’ns to me;

And it lifts me up to glory,For it lifts me, Lord, to Thee.

Scripture ReadingPhilippians 1:1-18

Paul and Timothy, servants of Christ Jesus,To all the saints in Christ Jesus who are at Philippi, with the overseers and deacons:2Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. 3I thank my God in all my remembrance of you, 4 always in every prayer of mine for you all making my prayer with joy, 5because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now. 6And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ. 7It is right for

Scripture ReadingPhilippians 1:1-18

me to feel this way about you all, because I hold you in my heart, for you are all partakers with me of grace, both in my imprisonment and in the defense and confirmation of the gospel. 8For God is my witness, how I yearn for you all with the affection of Christ Jesus. 9And it is my prayer that your love may abound more and more, with knowledge and all discernment, 10so that you may approve what is excellent, and so be pure and blameless for the day of Christ, 11 filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.

Scripture ReadingPhilippians 1:1-18

12I want you to know, brothers, that what has happened to me has really served to advance the gospel, 13so that it has become known throughout the whole imperial guard and to all the rest that my imprisonment is for Christ. 14And most of the brothers, having become confident in the Lord by my imprisonment, are much more bold to speak the word without fear.15Some indeed preach Christ from envy and rivalry, but others from good will. 16The latter do it out of love, knowing that I am put here for the defense of

the gospel. 17The former proclaim Christ out of selfish ambition, not sincerely but thinking to afflict me in my imprisonment. 18What then? Only that in every way, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is proclaimed, and in that I rejoice. Yes, and I will rejoice…
