WORSHIP
Rev.
Linda K. Mobley
Pastor: Are
you surprised that you, too, must be born again?
People: What do you mean by that?
Pastor:
Jesus' words to Nicodemus were not a private sermon. We all
need to experience God's Spirit breathing the breath of new
life into our souls.
People: Tell us more about this as we worship together!

PRAYER OF
CONFESSION:
Dear God, I know I need a new kind of life. I've learned
things about You with my mind; but I've prevented them from
getting to my heart. Intellectually, I want to be Christian;
but in all practicalities I do the very things I know are
wrong. Please forgive my foolish living and help me to start
over. Help me to start with my heart this time instead of my
head. Give me the assurance that I have been cleansed from the
inside out by your forgiveness you offer through Your Son,
Jesus, in whose name I pray. Amen.

All The Earth Will Sing
Your Praises
Verse 1
You took
You take our sins away O God
You give
Gave Your life away for us
You came down
You saved us through the cross
Our hearts are changed
Because of Your great love
You lived, You died,
You said in three days
You would rise
You did, You’re alive
You rule, You reign,
You said You're coming back again
I know that You will
And all the earth will sing Your
praises
Repeat

And step by step You'll lead me
And I will follow You all of my days
