Prelude

Welcome

Praise the Name of Jesus/He Is Lord

Praise the name of Jesus, praise the name of Jesus. He’s my Rock, He’s my Fortress,

He’s my Deliverer, in Him will I trust. Praise the name of Jesus.

He is Lord, He is Lord! He is risen from the dead and He is Lord! Every knee shall

bow, every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord.

Call to Worship Josh Vahle

Victory in Jesus

I heard an old, old story, how a Savior came from glory, how He gave His life on

Calvary to save a wretch like me. I heard about His groaning, of His precious blood’s

atoning, then I repented of my sins and won the victory.

Chorus

O victory in Jesus, my Savior, forever! He sought me and bought me with His

redeeming blood. He loved me ere I knew Him, and all my love is due Him. He

plunged me to victory beneath the cleansing flood.

I heard about His healing, of His cleansing power revealing, how He made the lame

to walk again and caused the blind to see. And then I cried, “Dear Jesus, come and

heal my broken spirit,” and somehow Jesus came and brought to me the victory.

I heard about a mansion He has built for me in glory, and I heard about the streets of

gold beyond the crystal sea; about the angels singing and the old redemption story;

and some sweet day I’ll sing up there the song of victory.

Jesus Shall Reign

Jesus shall reign wherever the sun does its successive journeys run; His kingdom

spread from shore to shore, till moons shall wax and wane no more.

To Him shall endless prayer be made, and endless praises crown His head. His

name like sweet perfume shall rise with every morning sacrifice.

Let every creature rise and bring His grateful honors to our King; Angels descend

with songs again, and earth repeat the loud “Amen!”

Benediction Josh Vahle

Prelude

Welcome

How Great Is Our God/How Great Thou Art

The splendor of the King, clothed in majesty; let all the earth rejoice, let all the earth

rejoice. He wraps Himself in light, and darkness tries to hide; it trembles at His

voice, it trembles at His voice.

Chorus

How great is our God! Sing with me, “How great is our God!” And all will see how

great, how great is our God!

Age to age He stands, and time is in His hands; Beginning and the End, Beginning

and the End. The God-head, three in one, Father, Spirit, Son, the Lion and the Lamb,

the Lion and the Lamb.

Name above all names, worthy of all praise; my heart will sing, “How great is our

God!”

Then sings my soul, my Savior God, to Thee; how great Thou art! How great Thou

art! Then sings my soul, my Savior God, to Thee; how great Thou art! How great

Thou art!

Call to Worship Jack Carmody

Jesus Shall Reign

Jesus shall reign wherever the sun does its successive journeys run; His kingdom

spread from shore to shore, till moons shall wax and wane no more.

To Him shall endless prayer be made, and endless praises crown His head. His name

like sweet perfume shall rise with every morning sacrifice.

Let every creature rise and bring His grateful honors to our King; Angels descend

with songs again, and earth repeat the loud “Amen!”

Pastoral Prayer

Sermon: Prayer, Deliverance and Growth Dan Ratchford

Acts Chapter 12

O Church, Arise

O church, arise and put your armor on; hear the call of Christ our captain; for now

the weak can say that they are strong; in the strength that God has given. With

shield of faith and belt of truth; we’ll stand against the devil’s lies; an army bold

whose battle cry is “Love!” Reaching out to those in darkness.

Our call to war, to love the captive soul, but to rage against the captor; and with the

sword that makes the wounded whole; we will fight with faith and valor. When

faced with trials on every side, we know the outcome is secure, and Christ will have

the prize for which He died. An inheritance of nations.

Come, see the cross where love and mercy meet, as the Son of God is stricken; then

see His foes lie crushed beneath His feet, for the Conqueror has risen! And as the

stone is rolled away, and Christ emerges from the grave, this victory march

continues till the day. Every eye and heart shall see Him.

So Spirit, come, put strength in every stride, give grace for every hurdle, that we

may run with faith to win the prize of a servant good and faithful. As saints of old

still line the way, re-telling triumphs of His grace, we hear their calls and hunger for

the day. When, with Christ, we stand in glory.

Benediction Josh Vahle
