Series: Exodus: The God Who Is
The God Who Assures
August 30, 2020 | Michael Uyeda
Passage: Exodus 5:1-9
As we continue our sermon series in Exodus, we come to the point in God's story where Moses and Aaron are given the assignment of relaying His command to Pharaoh to let His people go. But things don't go the way that Moses and his people are expecting them to and life gets harder and not better. When things in our lives go from bad to worse, we'll also be tempted to give in to disobedience and unbelief because we think that God has forgotten about us. But God wants us to know that His promises are greater than our problems and that He can be trusted. Join us this Sunday as we look at Exodus 5 & 6 and see the God who assures us by giving us spiritual freedom, our true identity and a future hope!

Congregation: Our hearts are lifted up to the Lord
CONFESSION
Most merciful God,
we confess that we have sinned against you
in thought, word, and deed,
by what we have done,
and by what we have left undone.
We have not loved you with our whole heart;
we have not loved our neighbors as ourselves.
We are truly sorry and we humbly repent.
For the sake of your Son Jesus Christ,
have mercy on us and forgive us;
that we may delight in your will,
and walk in your ways,
to the glory of your Name. Amen.

Your Name Is Matchless
by Sovereign Grace Music
Verse 1
We were sinners we were orphans we were looking for a home
We were lost and we were broken wandering alone
Looking down at our condition you sent Your Son to change our fate
Though we were hopelessly imprisoned He came to take our place
Chorus 1
Glory to the name of Jesus
Glory to the only name that saves
Ransomed the captives Your name is matchless
Verse 2
What a mystery to fathom that we're Your children set apart
For we were enemies not pilgrims prodigals at heart
But Your Spirit now has caused us to no longer doubt Your love
Abba Father You have bought us adopted through Your Son
Chorus
Glory to the name of Jesus Glory to the only name that saves
Ransomed the captives Your name is matchless
Glory to the name that freed us Glory to the love that made a way
Beauty for ashes Your name is matchless
Bridge
Glory to Your name
Verse 3
Ponder all we have been given heirs to God through Jesus' name
A sting-less death has been made certain
And glory now awaits Your glory now awaits
Jesus Paid It All Traditional Hymn
Verse1
I hear the Savior say, thy strength indeed is small
Child of weakness, watch and pray, find in me thine all in all
Verse 2
Lord, now indeed I find thy power and thine a - lone
Can change the leper's spots and melt the heart of stone
Chorus
Jesus paid it all All to Him I owe
Sin had left a crimson stain He washed it white as snow
Verse 3
And when before the throne I stand in him complete
Jesus died my soul to save my lips shall still repeat
Bridge
O praise the one who paid my debt and raised this life up from the dead
O praise the one who paid my debt and raised this life up from the dead

SERMON
LORD’S SUPPER
Living Hope
by Phil Wickham
Verse 1
How great the chasm that lay between us
How high the mountain I could not climb
In desperation I turned to heaven
And spoke Your name into the night
Then through the darkness Your loving-kindness
Tore through the shadows of my soul
The work is finished the end is written
Jesus Christ my living hope
Verse 2
Who could imagine so great a mercy
What heart could fathom such boundless grace
The God of ages stepped down from glory
To wear my sin and bear my shame
The cross has spoken I am forgiven
The King of kings calls me His own
Beautiful Savior I’m Yours forever
Jesus Christ my living hope
Chorus 1
Hallelujah praise the One who set me free
Hallelujah death has lost its grip on me
You have broken every chain There’s salvation in Your name
Jesus Christ my living hope
Verse 3
Then came the morning that sealed the promise
Your buried body began to breathe
Out of the silence the Roaring Lion
Declared the grave has no claim on me
Jesus Yours is the victory
Be Thou My Vision by Ascend the Hill
Verse 1
Be Thou my vision, O Lord of my heart;
Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art
Thou my best thought, by day or by night
Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light
Verse 2
Be Thou my wisdom, and Thou my true Word;
I ever with Thee and Thou with me, Lord;
Thou my great Father, and I Thy true son;
Thou in me dwelling, and I with Thee one.
Verse 3
Riches I heed not, nor man's empty praise,
Thou mine inheritance, now and always:
Thou and Thou only, first in my heart,
High king of heaven, my treasure Thou art.
Chorus
O God be my everything, be my delight
Be Jesus my glory, my soul satisfied
DOXOLOGY
Praise God from whom all blessings flow
Praise Him all creatures here below
Praise him above ye heavenly hosts
Praise Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
