Call to Worship

Psalm 148:7-13

Prayer

Adoration: King of Creation, name alone exalted, majesty above earth + heaven!
Confession: …we have sinned: listened to counsel of wicked instead of delighting in Word/followed temptation instead of turning to you//may we be humbled before you b/c of our sin
Thanksgiving: Those who humble themselves before you in repentance, you exalt!
Supplication: Help us to delight in your Word => eyes on you, to grow; praise: you have known us! Conform us to Christ; Mothers: endurance, hope, faith; Barren: comfort, hope, faith; SGC—that they would stand firm in one Spirit, striving side by side for gospel/not frightened by any opponents, but faithful to You in the face of hostility/rest for Bryan in his upcoming sabbatical => renewed for further shepherding; drug addictions in PDX; church in Latin America: faithfulness + clear gospel + grow

Sermon

Main Idea: Confession is a form of worship

Intro

We’ve seen that blessing comes from delighting....
We’ve seen that the center of blessing is worship...
Story: confession as dark drudgery//meritorious work...
Framing it: Ps 1 delight in the Word => Ps 147 delight in God through delighting in the word => fear + hope = delight in God in confession…
