Congregational Hymn
”Blessed Assurance”
1. Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine! O what a fore-taste of glory
divine! Heir of salvation, purchase of god, Born of His Spirit, washed
in His blood.
2. Perfect submission, perfect delight! Visions of rapture now burst on
my sight; Angels descending bring from above, echoes of mercy,
whispers of love.
3. Perfect submission – all is at rest, I in my Savior am happy and blest;
watching and waiting, looking above, filled with His goodness, lost in
His love.
REFRAIN: This is my story, this is my song, Praising my Savior all the
day long; This is my story, this is my song, Praising my Savior all the
day long. ….Amen
PRAYER TIME
“Be careful for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with
thanksgiving let your request be made known unto God.” Phil. 4:6 (KJV)

*Reading of the Scripture
Minister:
THE DECALOGUE
And God spoke all these words saying, I am the Lord thy God
who brought Thee out of land of Egypt, out of the house of
bondage. Thou shall have no other Gods before me.
People:(Sing)
Prayer & Fasting
REMEMBER
THESE TRUTHS ABOUT FASTING:
1.
Fasting loosens the bands of wickedness – “…Is this not the fast that I have
chosen? To loosen the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and
to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke?” (Isaiah 58:1-14).
2.
Fasting builds our faith – “Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and
fasting.” (Matthew 17:21)
3.
Fasting makes it easier to hear the voice of the Lord – “As they ministered to
the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Ghost said, “Separate me Barnabas and Saul for
the work whereunto I have called them.” And when they had fasted and
prayed, and laid their hands on them, they sent them away.” (Acts 13:2-3).
Minister:
Lord have mercy upon us, and incline our heart to keep this law.
Hear what Christ our Savior saith, thou shall love the Lord thy
God with all thy heart and with all thy soul and with thy entire
mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second
is like unto it, Thou shall love thy neighbor as thyself. On these
two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.
People:(Sing)
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost, as
it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, world without
end. ...Amen

Prayerful Inner Searching | My Uptmost for His Highest
“Your whole spirit….” The great, mysterious work of the Holy Spirit is in the
deep recesses of our being which we cannot reach. Read Psalm 139. The
psalmist implies— “O Lord, You are the God of the early mornings, the God of
the late nights, the God of the mountain peaks, and the God of the sea. But,
my God, my soul has horizons further away than those of early mornings,
Bishop M. LaVerne deeper darkness than the nights of earth, higher peaks than any mountain
Lattimore Ball
peaks, greater depths than any sea in nature. You who are the God of all
these, be my God. I cannot reach to the heights or to the depths; there are motives I cannot
discover, dreams I cannot realize. My God, search me.”Do we believe that God can fortify and
protect our thought processes far beyond where we can go? “…the blood of Jesus Christ His Son
cleanses us from all sin” (1 John 1:7). If this verse means cleansing only on our conscious level,
may God have mercy on us. The man who has been dulled by sin will say that he is not even
conscious of it. But the cleansing from sin we experience will reach to the heights and depths of
our spirit if we will “walk in the light as He is in the light” (1 John 1:7). The same Spirit that fed the
life of Jesus Christ will feed the life of our spirit. It is only when we are protected by God with the
miraculous sacredness of the Holy Spirit that our spirit, soul, and body can be preserved in pure
uprightness until the coming of Jesus-no longer condemned in God’s sight. We should more
frequently allow our minds to meditate on these great, massive truths of God.
Minister:
I was glad when they said unto me; let us go into the house of
the Lord. Our feet shall stand within thy gates, Oh Jerusalem.
Psalm 122:1-2
People:
For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand, I had
rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God, than to
dwell in the tents of wickedness.
Psalm 84:10
Minister:
Bless the Lord, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his
holy name.
Reading God’s Word in the Sermon
People:
Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits.
Since we forget 90% of what we hear, it has been suggested by our Bishop, that note-taking will
double the percentage of our take-home response. Why not try it and see.
Minister:
Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;
People:
Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth
thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies;
Minister:
Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is
renewed like the eagle’s.
People:
The Lord executeth righteousness and judgment for all that
are oppressed.
Minister:
He made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto the children
of Israel.
All:
The Lord is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and
plenteous in mercy… Amen
Psalm 103 1 – 8
*AFFIRMATION OF FAITH(THE APOSTLES CREED
I believe in God the Father Almighty Maker of heaven and earth: And in Jesus Christ His
only Son, Our Lord; who was conceived by the Holy Spirit Born of the Virgin Mary; suffered
under Pontius Pilate; was crucified dead and buried. He descended into hell. On the third
day He arose from the dead. He ascended into Heaven and sitteth at the right hand of
God the Father almighty, from thence He shall come to judge the quick and the dead. I
believe in the Holy Spirit; the Holy Christian Church; the Communion of Saints; the
forgiveness of sins; the resurrection of the body and life everlasting. .Amen
