The Worship of God
October 25, 2009
The Twenty-first Sunday after Pentecost
The Prelude Bethany Braun
The Chiming of the Hour
The Call to Worship How Great Is Our God!
The Opening Sentence Psalm 72: 17-19
His name shall endure forever;
His name shall continue as long as the sun
And men shall call Him blessed.
Blessed be the Lord God, the God of Israel,
Who only does wondrous things
And blessed be His glorious name forever!
The Greeting and the Lord’s Prayer Harvey Wilson
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 debts as we forgive our debtors.
Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
For Thine is the kingdom, and the power and the glory
Forever. Amen.
The Opening Hymn # 217 Oh, How I Love Jesus
The Scripture Lesson Luke 10: 17-20
The seventy-two returned with joy and said, “Lord, even the demons submit to us in your name.” He replied, “I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven. I have given you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy; nothing will harm you.
However, do not rejoice that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.”
This is the gospel of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.
The Morning Prayer

Worthy is your name”

(Congregation please stand and join the singing on the repeat)
My Jesus, My Savior,
Lord, there is none --- like You.
All of my days, I want to praise
The wonders of Your might - - y love;
My comfort, my shelter,
Tower of refuge and strength,
Let every breath, all that I am
Never cease to wor-ship -You.
Shout to the Lord, all the earth, - let us sing
Power and majesty praise – to the King
Mountains bow down – and the seas – will roar
At the sound –of Your name.
I sing for joy – at the work – of Your hands,
Forever I’ll love You, forever I’ll stand
Nothing compares to the promise I have - in you.
The Sermon Dr.
God Knows Your Name
The Hymn of Response # 203 His Name is Wonderful
The Dismissal with Blessing
Go forth in the name of the Lord.
This is God’s charge:
To give our allegiance to Jesus Christ
And to love one another as he commanded.
Go in peace to serve the Lord in the name of Christ.
Thanks be to God. Amen.
