Opening Prayer:

Search me, O God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts; and see if there be any hurtful way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.


Confession of Sin & Prayer for Grace

Word of God Incarnate: you came to this world to accomplish salvation. By your grace, you call me to repent, to be crucified with you, and to be raised as a new creation. But I confess that often I do not live as a renewed person! I “go with the flow” instead of stemming the tide of sin. I allow the fruit of the Spirit to be choked out by the weeds of evil. Forgive me, for Jesus’ sake, and help me show evidence every day of your kingdom’s reign in my heart. 


Old Testament Reading: Jeremiah 15:15-21


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: James 1:17-27


Prayer of Adoration:

Father of lights, every good gift is from you. I praise you for your purity, your unchangeable nature, and for your word of truth, that has brought me salvation. Thank you, Father, that this word of truth doesn’t merely change my mind, but transforms my entire soul. Help me to be a doer of your word, not merely a hearer. 


Psalm Reading: Psalm 142


Prayer of Consecration

Dear Lord, I cry aloud to you today. This psalm reminds me that I can confide every part of my inner life to you. When I’m tempted to withhold my true self from you in prayer, this psalm prompts me to pour out all my troubles. You love me; you listen to all of my complaints. I can take my time and tell you everything. When my spirit faints, I will assure my soul that you know my path. When I feel that no one cares for me, you are my refuge and my portion. Set me free from my prisons and I will give thanks to your name. Bring me out of myself and restore my capacity to rejoice and hope. Because of your goodness, I’ll sing your praise in the gathering of your people.   


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.
