Midweek-Liturgy-4.01 MIDWEEK LITURGY ​ GRACE CHURCH SEATTLE ________________________________________________________________________________________ This liturgy is a basic template to help provide Christ-centered structure to our lives in the light of the disruption caused by COVID-19. By God’s grace, the upending of our daily routines allows us to recreate a new rhythm, a new liturgy to help guide our lives toward love of God and neighbor during this time. Out of this present chaos, God will bring order by His Spirit. This structure is merely a suggested format, please use and adapt accordingly. MORNING PRAYER: The Rest That Still Stands “ And on the seventh day God finished​ his work that he had done, and he rested on the ​ ​ seventh day from all his work that he had done.” (Genesis 2:2) ​ ​ ​ “Therefore, while the promise of entering his rest still stands, let us fear lest any of you should seem to have failed to reach it. (Hebrews 4:1) ​ ​ * If in a group of two or more, choose a leader to read the plain text while everyone reads the bolded text. ___________________________________________________________________________ In the beginning, God established the Universe in six days and on seventh, He rested, God declared the Universe Very Good Wisdom rejoiced in the finished work, The angels shouted for joy And we are commanded to joyfully enter His rest. Lord of the Sabbath As we embark on this new day, We long to share in your Promised Rest That extends from the Seventh Day to this very hour. In faith, Free us from anxious labor Deliver us from stressful interactions. In keeping with your Sabbath, Give us that same satisfaction in our labors, Rescue us from boredom, Empty distraction, And the fear that tempts us To save ourselves by our own hand. May we see the exquisite diamond That is your Rest Which enables us to abide In peace, service, and forgiveness By Christ’s Glorious Name, Amen. Worship & Praise: Choose a song to sing together, or listen to. ​ Example: “Abide With Me”, “When I Enter Your Rest”, “Be Still My Soul” ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ABIDE WITH ME Abide with me; fast falls the eventide; guide and stay can be? The darkness deepens; Through cloud and sunshine, Lord with me abide. abide with me. When other helpers, fail and comforts flee, I fear no foe, Help of the helpless, abide with me. with Thee at hand to bless Ills have no weight, Thou on my head, tears lose their bitterness in early youth didst smile; Where is thy sting death? And, though rebellious, Where grave thy victory? and perverse meanwhile, I triumph still, abide with me. Thou hast not left me, though I oft left Thee, Hold Thou Thy cross, On to the close Lord, abide with me. before my closing eyes; Shine through the gloom, I need Thy presence, and point me to the skies. every passing hour. Heaven's morning breaks, and What but Thy grace, earth's vain shadows flee; can foil the tempter's power? In life, in death, Lord, abide with me. Who, like Thyself, my WHEN I ENTER YOUR REST Early in the morning i'll seek your face, I find my life in the fullness of your joy, Every stress and anxiety It is gone, When i enter your rest When i enter your rest I find my life in you, When i enter your rest, My peace is complete, When i enter your rest, Oh my faith is refreshed When i enter your rest, I am surrounded by the power of your love. Scripture Reading: Leviticus 23:3; 25: 1-12, 17 ​ ​ 3 ​ ​“Six days shall work be done, but on the seventh day is a Sabbath of solemn rest, a holy convocation. You shall do no work. It is a Sabbath to the Lord in all your dwelling ​ ​ places.” ​ 25 The Lord spoke to Moses on Mount Sinai, saying, 2 “Speak to the people of Israel ​ ​ and say​ to them, When you come into the land that I give you, the land shall keep a Sabbath to the Lord. 3 For six years you shall sow your field, and for six years you shall ​ ​ prune your vineyard and gather in its fruits, 4 but in the seventh year there shall be a ​ ​ Sabbath of solemn rest for the land, a Sabbath to the Lord. You shall not sow your field or prune your vineyard. 5 You shall not reap what grows of itself in your harvest, or ​ ​ gather the grapes of your undressed vine. It shall be a year of solemn rest for the land. 6 ​The Sabbath of the land shall provide food for you, for yourself and for your male and female slaves and for your hired worker and the sojourner who lives with you, 7 and for ​ ​ your cattle and for the wild animals that are in your land: all its yield shall be for food. 8 ​“You shall count seven weeks of years, seven times seven years, so that the time of the seven weeks of years shall give you forty-nine years. 9 Then you shall sound the ​ ​ loud trumpet on the tenth day of the seventh month. On the Day of Atonement you shall sound the trumpet throughout all your land. 10 And you shall consecrate the ​ ​ fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout the land to all its inhabitants. It shall be a jubilee for you, when each of you shall return to his property and each of you shall return to his clan. 11 That fiftieth year shall be a jubilee for you; in it you shall neither ​ ​ sow nor reap what grows of itself nor gather the grapes from the undressed vines. 12 ​ For it is a jubilee. It shall be holy to you. You may eat the produce of the field. 17 ​You shall not wrong one another, but you shall fear your God, for I am the Lordyour God. Discuss as a group/family or think about this passage individually. Take time to read the passage twice. Provide paper and coloring supplies for children (or adults!) to illustrate whatever strikes them from the morning passage. NOONDAY PRAYER: Striving For That Finished Rest “When Jesus had received the sour​ wine, he said, “It is finished,” and he bowed his head and gave up his spirit. (John 19:30) “Let us therefore strive to enter that rest, so that no one may fall by the same sort of ​ disobedience.”. (Hebrews 4:11) ​ * If in a group of two or more, choose a leader to read the plain text while everyone reads the bolded text. ___________________________________________________________________________ As we continue on into our day, It has not taken long to see That we are in a wilderness Where we are forced to fight against Worry Grumbling Hoarding of provisions And frustrated efforts To save ourselves God, forgive our complaining! Pardon our hardness of heart As we travel in this barren wilderness! We acknowledge our unbelief And wonder Is too late To recover the life and vitality We had when we first started this day? (Take a moment of silence) As Christ’s heart beats in Heaven above, The promise of rest still stands! For those who look to Him In hope and faith It is not too late. On the Cross, You said, “It is Finished” The rest is secured By Your Body And Your Blood You forgive our unbelief, And welcome us into A New Sabbath! Where our amends has been lacking Christ’s sacrifice finishes the work. Where our good deeds only go so far, Christ’s sacrifice is never found wanting. While we acknowledge our sacrificial love is incomplete Christ’s sacrifice sanctifies and fulfills our efforts By His finished work on the Cross. Amen! Worship and Praise: Choose a song to sing or listen to that points to our need for ​ grace, or reality of our present struggle. Example: “Psalm 46” or “Jesus, Your Blood” ​ ​ ​ PSALM 46 God is our refuge, [Chorus] our strength and our shield, There is a river an ever present help. who’s streams will make glad We will not fear the city of our most High King. though the earth gives way, God is within her, and she will not fail, and mountains crash into the sea. he helps her at break of the day. “Be still, and know that I am God.” Nations in uproar, men’s kingdoms, they fall; Come, let us see he speaks and the earth melts away. what the Lord, he has done; The worst we imagine, the ruins he brings to the earth. the strongest of storms; He makes wars to cease our fortress, it will still remain. to the ends of the earth; he shatters the bow and the spear. [Chorus] JESUS, YOUR BLOOD Pierced for my transgressions Jesus, Wounded for my sins Your blood has made my hands clean This man of sorrows So I will not hide my face from You came to take my place King over creation You have won the victory Slain for my salvation You have paid the cost Unspeakable love, abounding grace While I was still in sin You died for me Now I am coming to this holy place Carrying my sorrows I am drawing near to seek Your face Lifting off my shame Bearing all my sin to set me free I will ascend the hill of the Lord ‘Cause You have rescued me Scripture Reading: Hebrews 4:1-13 ​ 4 Therefore, while the promise of entering his rest still stands, let us fear lest any of you​ should seem to have failed to reach it.

LUKE’S INSIDE-OUT HABITS We Study the Bible and Worship Isaiah 64:1-2 O that you would tear open the heavens and come down, so that the mountains would quake at your presence— 2 as when fire kindles brushwood and the fire causes water to boil— to make your name known to your adversaries, so that the nations might tremble at your presence! Isaiah 65:17-25 For I am about to create new heavens and a new earth; the former things shall not be remembered or come to mind. 18 But be glad and rejoice forever in what I am creating; for I am about to create Jerusalem as a joy, and its people as a delight. 19I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and delight in my people; no more shall the sound of weeping be heard in it, or the cry of distress. 20No more shall there be in it an infant that lives but a few days, or an old person who does not live out a lifetime; for one who dies at a hundred years will be considered a youth, and one who falls short of a hundred will be considered accursed. 21They shall build houses and inhabit them; they shall plant vineyards and eat their fruit. 22They shall not build and another inhabit; they shall not plant and another eat; for like the days of a tree shall the days of my people be, and my chosen shall long enjoy the work of their hands. 23 They shall not labor in vain, or bear children for calamity; for they shall be offspring blessed by the Lord— and their descendants as well.

Packed with spiritual truth, deep insights, and practical wisdom, this book reveals how your future can hold more than you ever thought pos- sible.

  • Devotions for the 2017 Advent Season Written by the Members of St. Paul
    Devotions for the 2017 Advent Season Written by the members of St. Paul United Methodist Church Lakeland, Tennessee St. Paul United Methodist Church, 2949 Davies Plantation Road, Lakeland, TN 38002 www.stpaullakeland.com December 2 “For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given, and the government shall be upon his shoulder; and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, the mighty God, the everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.” -Isaiah 9:6 Is there anywhere a more beautiful promise? We read or sing or hear these words every Christmas season, but how much do we really think about them? Do we take them to heart and find strength and inspiration in them, or are they just another part of the familiar rituals that we’ve gotten used to and that give us that “warm fuzzy feeling” that usually goes along with the season? You know, “peace and goodwill,” “all’s right with the world,” “I’ll worry about that after the holidays,” etc.? Don’t get me wrong, there’s nothing wrong with those feelings, as long as they are genuine and not just ways of avoiding going any deeper. How about peace and goodwill, for instance? Are we doing anything about trying to bring peace, even if it’s only making amends for those hasty words spoken last week? What about goodwill? Does it mean any more than feeling good about dropping a dollar or two in the Salvation Army kettle in front of the store as we leave after spending too much money or giving that thin, ragged homeless guy on the corner that we pass every day a couple bucks extra? Is all really right with the world? We know better; we see the harsh truth every day in the nightly news, in the faces of people we meet on the street, in the sight of people of all ages so connected to social media that they are blind to the needs of those in front of them.
