Opening Prayer:

O Lord, you have said, “Seek my face.” My heart says to you, “Your face, Lord, do I seek.” Do not hide your face from me. Do not turn me away in anger. Teach me your ways, O Lord, that I may walk in your truth; unite my heart to fear your name.


Confession of Sin & Prayer for Grace

Merciful Father, I come into your presence with deep gratitude, for I am no longer under the law but under grace. Resting in that truth, I freely confess my brokenness and my weakness before you. Instead of worshipping you, I have put myself at the center of my life. Instead of honoring others, I have withheld words of blessing and spoken words of harm. Have mercy on me, for Jesus' sake. By your Holy Spirit, awaken in me today passionate worship, joyful obedience, and wholehearted love for others. Amen.


Old Testament Reading: Isaiah 30:18-33


The Lord’s Prayer

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom and the power, and the glory,  forever. Amen.


New Testament Reading: Luke 6:17-26


Prayer of Adoration:

Jesus: I stand in awe of you as the master teacher. You are God’s true wisdom and true revelation. May I revere you not only as my Savior, but as my teacher and guide. Your ways are the ways of life; your words are the words of truth.


Psalm Reading: Psalm 119:121-136


Prayer of Consecration

Dear Father, the unfolding of your word gives light. So I humbly ask you to open my eyes, so I might understand more and more of it today. I want eyes to see and ears to hear, as Jesus said. Show me that your ways are wonderful, wise, and deep. Align my soul to respond to them with delight. If I’m blind to the beauty of your statutes, if your laws seem restrictive or limiting, I ask you: please help me see them in all their redemptive fullness, and through them, draw me into communion with you. Let me know you so intimately that as your word unfolds, I comprehend its beauty. Amen. 


BENEDICTION

And now may the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, be with us now and always, until the day of Christ's return.
