The Greatness of Jesus
Series: Jesus is Greater | A Study in Hebrews
Speaker: Tim Latham
Detail:
This is a basic home worship guide you can use to worship together in your home this Sunday. We encourage you to gather together with your family and any other neighbors or friends that might be in your home to worship with you. Choose a leader to lead the “Leader” portions. If you’re musical, feel free to sing, if not, you can just skip the singing parts!
Preparation for Worship
Leader: Fill our worship with grace, Lord Jesus Christ, that every thought, word, and deed may be acceptable to you, our Rock and Redeemer, Amen.
Call to Worship | Psalm 47
Leader: Clap your hands, all you peoples; shout to God with loud songs of joy.
People: For the Lord, the Most High, is awesome, a great king over all the earth.
Leader: God has gone up with a shout, the Lord with the sound of a trumpet,
People: Sing praises to God, sing praises; sing praises to our King; sing praises.
Prayers of Adoration
Spend a few minutes praising God. You could just invite people to say words out loud that characterize God and His care for us, or thank for who He is and what He has done for us.
Hymn | Immortal, Invisible, God Only Wise
Prayer of Confession | 1 John 1
Leader: God’s Word tells us that if we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He who is faithful and just will forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. In humility and faith, let us confess our sin to God.
Time for Silent Confession
Assurance of Pardon
Leader: The Psalmist writes “Happy are those whose transgression is forgiven; whose sin is covered. Happy are those to whom the Lord imputes not iniquity, and in whose spirit, there is no deceit.” This is the Promise of the Lord!
People: Thanks be to God!

I believe in the Holy Spirit; the holy catholic church; the communion of saints; the forgiveness of sins; the resurrection of the body; and the life everlasting. Amen.
