Call for the Offering

Choral Anthem My Hope is In the Lord Forman My hope is in the Lord, who gave Himself for me, and paid the price of all my sin at Calvary.

For me He died; for me He lives, and everlasting life and light He freely gives. No merit of my own, His anger to suppress. My only hope is found in Jesus’ righteousness.

For me He died; for me He lives, and everlasting life and light He freely gives. And now for me He stands before the Father’s throne. He shows His wounded hands and names me as His own!

For me He died; for me He lives, and everlasting life and light He freely gives. His grace has planned it all, ’tis mine but to believe and recognize His work of love and Christ receive.

For me He died; for me He lives, and everlasting life and light He freely gives.

Scripture Reading Isaiah 1:21-31

Sermon Pastor Devlin The Increase of His Kingdom

A Faithful City in the Kingdom

Unison Confession of Faith Westminster Confession of Faith 26.1,2

All believers are united to Jesus Christ, their head, by His Spirit and by faith, and have fellowship with Him in His grace, suffering, death, resurrection, and glory. United to one another in love the saints have fellowship in each other’s gifts and grace and are obliged to perform those public and private duties which nourish their mutual good, both spiritually and physically. By their profession of faith saints are bound to maintain a holy fellowship and communion with each other in the worship of God and in the performance of other spiritual services for their mutual improvement. They are also bound to help each other in material things according to their different abilities and needs. This fellowship is to be offered, as God gives the opportunity, to everyone in every place who calls on the name of the Lord Jesus.

Invitation to Worship and Greeting Rev. Dr. Nathanael Devlin, Senior Pastor

Leader: Come, let us worship the LORD.

People: We worship Him with gladness. Welcome and Announcements Amy Lucas, Administrative Assistant

Opening Hymn of Praise No. 310 vv. 1-3 Rejoice, the Lord Is King

Prayer of Invocation Call to Worship From Psalm 19

Leader: The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims His handiwork. Day to day pours out speech, and night to night reveals knowledge. There is no speech, nor are there words, whose voice is not heard.

People: Their voice goes out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them He has set a tent for the sun, which comes out like a bridegroom leaving his chamber, and, like a strong man, runs its course with joy.

Leader: The law of the LORD is perfect, reviving the soul; the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple; the precepts of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes; the fear of the LORD is clean, enduring forever; the rules of the LORD are true, and righteous altogether.

People: More to be desired are they than gold, even much fine gold; sweeter also than honey and drippings of the honeycomb. Moreover, by them is Your servant warned; in keeping them there is great reward.

Hymn of Praise No. 345 vv. 1-3 Glorious Things of Thee Are Spoken
