WORSHIP AT HOME: MAY 24, 2020

WORSHIP AT HOME “Let us consider how to stir one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.” (Hebrews 10:24-25 ESV) One of the most essential qualities of going to church on Sunday mornings is that we do so together. Gathering together with other believers is essential to us being the Church, to be unified as Christ’s body. Though it is not currently possible or wise for us to gather in one building, we can continue to be united as we worship God as one church. Being together as a church in this way is going to look a bit different for the time being, as we lift our voices and look to God’s word from within our homes. In this temporary setting, our hope is that the elements of this resource will provide you with the essential parts of our Sunday morning gatherings. “Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God.” (Colossians 3:16 ESV) In this guide, we have provided scripture readings, prayers, and various songs within the typical structure we have used on Sunday mornings. This structure is what we call a rehearsal of the Gospel and has generally followed the pattern: Welcome and Gathering, Adoration, Call to Confession, Assurance of Pardon, Word and Sermon, and Response and Benediction. We encourage you to prepare it beforehand! This worship guide is meant as a tool that directs your attention, and is written to be used alongside the service video on YouTube, which is also located on the front page of wbc.org. As you gather in your homes to worship together with us as a church, it may be helpful to assign various roles to one another. For example, you could have one person read the scripture readings, while another person leads the prayers. Our prayer is that this resource guides you in rehearsing the truth of the Gospel, which is what we aim to do each and every time we gather. Signed, Mike Johnson & Crandell Hemphill

GATHERING & ADORATION Call to Worship: Psalm 149 (ESV) [Leader] Praise the LORD! Sing to the LORD a new song, his praise in the assembly of the godly! [All] Let Israel be glad in his Maker; let the children of Zion rejoice in their King! [Leader] Let them praise his name with dancing, making melody to him with tambourine and lyre! [All] For the LORD takes pleasure in his people; he adorns the humble with salvation. Let the godly exult in glory; let them sing for joy on their beds. Let the high praises of God be in their throats And two-edged swords in their hands, [Leader] To execute vengeance on the nations and punishments on the peoples, to bind their kings with chains and their nobles with fetters of iron, to execute on them the judgment written! [All] This is honor for all his godly ones. Praise the LORD!

Gathering: Desert Song Verse 1 This is my prayer in the desert When all that's within me feels dry This is my prayer in my hunger and need My God is the God who provides Verse 2 This is my prayer in the fire In weakness or trial or pain There is a faith proved of more worth than gold So refine me Lord through the flame Chorus I will bring praise, I will bring praise, No weapon formed against me shall remain. I will rejoice, I will declare, God is my victory and He is here. Verse 3 This is my prayer in the battle When triumph is still on its way I am a conqueror and co-heir with Christ So firm on His promise I'll stand Chorus Bridge (x4) All of my life in ev’ry season You are still God I have a reason to sing I have a reason to worship Chorus Verse 4 This is my prayer in the harvest When favour and providence flow I know I'm filled to be emptied again The seed I've received I will sow CCLI Song # 5060793 Brooke Ligertwood © 2008 Hillsong Music Publishing Australia (Admin. by Capitol CMG Publishing) For use solely with the SongSelect®.

PENITENCE AND PARDON Call to Confession: Isaiah 29:13-16 (ESV) [Leader] And the Lord said: “Because this people draw near with their mouth and honor me with their lips, While their hearts are far from me, and their fear of me is a commandment taught by men, [All] Therefore, behold, I will again do wonderful things with this people, With wonder upon wonder; and the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and the discernment of their discerning men shall be hidden.” [Leader] Ah, you who hide deep from the LORD your counsel, whose deeds are in the dark, And who say, “Who sees us? Who knows us?” You turn things upside down! [All] Shall the potter be regarded as the clay, that the thing made should say of its maker, “He did not make me”; Or the thing formed say of him who formed it, “He has no understanding”? At this time, pause, and pray silently before the Lord.

Song of Confession: Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing Verse 1 Come Thou fount of ev'ry blessing Tune my heart to sing Thy grace Streams of mercy never ceasing Call for songs of loudest praise Teach me some melodious sonnet Sung by flaming tongues above Praise the name I'm fixed upon it Name of Thy redeeming love Verse 2 Hitherto Thy love has blessed me Thou hast brought me to this place And I know Thy hand will bring me Safely home by Thy good grace Jesus sought me when a stranger Wand'ring from the fold of God He to rescue me from danger Interposed His precious blood Verse 3 Oh to grace how great a debtor Daily I'm constrained to be Let Thy goodness like a fetter Bind my wand'ring heart to Thee Prone to wander Lord I feel it Prone to leave the God I love Here's my heart O take and seal it Seal it for Thy courts above Verse 4 Oh that day when freed from sinning I shall see Thy lovely face Full arrayed in blood-washed linen How I'll sing Thy sovereign grace Come my Lord no longer tarry Bring Thy promises to pass For I know Thy pow'r will keep me Till I'm home with Thee at last

Assurance of Pardon: 2 Corinthians 5:14-15, 17-21 (ESV) [Leader] For the love of Christ controls us, because we have concluded this: That one has died for all, therefore all have died; and he died for all, That those who live might no longer live for themselves but for him who for their sake died and was raised. [All] Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.

[Leader] All this is from God, who through Christ reconciled us to himself

and gave us the ministry of reconciliation; [All] That is, in Christ God was reconciling the world to himself, Not counting their trespasses against them, and entrusting to us the message of reconciliation. [Leader] Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, God making his appeal through us. We implore you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. [All] For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.

Song of Assurance: Before the Throne of God Above Verse 1 Before the throne of God above I have a strong a perfect plea A great High Priest whose name is Love Who ever lives and pleads for me My name is graven on His hands My name is written on His heart I know that while in heaven He stands No tongue can bid me thence depart No tongue can bid me thence depart Verse 2 When Satan tempts me to despair And tells me of the guilt within Upward I look and see Him there Who made an end of all my sin Because the sinless Saviour died My sinful soul is counted free For God the Just is satisfied To look on Him and pardon me To look on Him and pardon me Verse 3 Behold Him there the risen Lamb My perfect spotless Righteousness The great unchangeable I AM The King of glory and of grace One with Himself I cannot die My soul is purchased by His blood My life is hid with Christ on high With Christ my Saviour and my God With Christ my Saviour and my God CCLI Song # 990391 Charitie Lees Bancroft Public Domain For use solely with the SongSelect®.
