Order of Worship—John 13.21-30

Prelude

Announcements and Welcome

Call to Worship

(Ps. 108:1-5) My heart is steadfast, O God! I will sing and make melody with all my being!  2 Awake, O harp and lyre! I will awake the *dawn!  3 I will give thanks to you, O LORD, among the peoples; I will sing praises to you among the nations.  4 For your steadfast love is great above the heavens; your faithfulness reaches to the clouds.  5 Be exalted, O God, above the heavens! Let your glory be over all the earth!

Hymn No. 615 “When the Morning Comes”

Pastoral Prayer (The Armor of God)

(Eph. 6:10-20)  10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might.  11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil.  12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.  13 Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm.  14 Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness,  15 and, as shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace.  16 In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one;  17 and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God,  18 praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. To that end, keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints,  19 and also for me, that words may be given to me in opening my mouth boldly to proclaim the mystery of the gospel,  20 for which I am an ambassador in chains, that I may declare it boldly, as I ought to speak.

Hymn No. 663 “O Church, Arise”

Isaiah 48:7 “I am the LORD your God…who leads you in the way you should go.”

Hymn No. 659 “Lead On, O King Eternal”

Sermon—John 13:21-30

Hymn No. 447 “It is well with my soul”

Benediction

(Ps. 23:1-6) The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.  2 He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters.  3 He restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.  4 Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.  5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.  6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the LORD forever.
