Sixth Sunday after the Epiphany
Announcements
Invocation
Scripture: Psalm 1
1 Happy are those who do not follow the advice of the wicked, or take the path that sinners tread, or sit in the seat of scoffers;
2 but their delight is in the law of the Lord, and on his law they meditate day and night.
3 They are like trees planted by streams of water, which yield their fruit in its season, and their leaves do not wither. In all that they do, they prosper.
4 The wicked are not so, but are like chaff that the wind drives away.
5 Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous;
6 for the Lord watches over the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish.
“The Family of God”
Hymn #681
I’m so glad I’m a part of the family of God
I’ve been washed in the fountain,
cleansed by His blood!
Join heirs with Jesus as we travel this sod;
For I’m part of the family,
The family of God.
“Tis so Sweet to Trust in Jesus”
Hymn #560
Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus,
Just to take Him at His Word,
Just to rest upon His promise,
Just to know: “Thus saith the Lord”
Jesus, Jesus, how I trust Him!
How I’ve proved Him o’re and o’re!
Jesus, Jesus, precious Jesus!
O for grace to trust Him more!,
O how sweet to trust in Jesus,
Just to trust His cleansing blood,
Just in simple faith to plunge me
‘Neath the healing cleansing flood!
Jesus, Jesus, how I trust Him!
How I’ve proved Him o’re and o’re!
Jesus, Jesus, precious Jesus!
O for grace to trust Him more!,
Yes, ‘Tis sweet to trust in Jesus,
Just from sin and self to cease,
Just from Jesus simply taking
Life and rest, and joy and peace.
Jesus, Jesus, how I trust Him!
How I’ve proved Him o’re and o’re!
Jesus, Jesus, precious Jesus!
O for grace to trust Him more!,
I’m so glad I learned to trust Thee,
Precious Jesus, Savior, Friend
And I know that Thou art with me,
Wilt be with me to the end.
Jesus, Jesus, how I trust Him!
How I’ve proved Him o’re and o’re!
Jesus, Jesus, precious Jesus!
O for grace to trust Him more!,
“The Cleansing Wave”
Hymn #520
O now I see the crimson wave,
The fountain deep and wide;
Jesus my Lord mighty to save,
Points to His wounded side.
The cleansing stream, I see, I see!
I plunge and, O it cleanseth me!
O praise the Lord, it cleanseth me!
It cleanseth me, yes cleanseth me!
I see the new creation rise, I hear the speaking blood; It speaks, polluted nature dies, Sinks ’neath the cleansing flood.
The cleansing stream, I see, I see!
I plunge and, O it cleanseth me!
O praise the Lord, it cleanseth me!
It cleanseth me, yes cleanseth me!
3. I rise to walk in Heav’n’s own light, Above the world and sin, With heart made pure and garments white, And Christ enthroned within.
The cleansing stream, I see, I see!
I plunge and, O it cleanseth me!
O praise the Lord, it cleanseth me!
It cleanseth me, yes cleanseth me!
4. Amazing grace! ’tis Heav’n below To feel the blood applied, And Jesus, only Jesus know, My Jesus crucified.
The cleansing stream, I see, I see!
I plunge and, O it cleanseth me!
O praise the Lord, it cleanseth me!
It cleanseth me, yes cleanseth me!
Jeremiah 17:5-10
5 Thus says the Lord: Cursed are those who trust in mere mortals and make mere flesh their strength, whose hearts turn away from the Lord.
6 They shall be like a shrub in the desert, and shall not see when relief comes. They shall live in the parched places of the wilderness, in an uninhabited salt land.
7 Blessed are those who trust in the Lord, whose trust is the Lord.
8 They shall be like a tree planted by water, sending out its roots by the stream. It shall not fear when heat comes, and its leaves shall stay green; in the year of drought it is not anxious, and it does not cease to bear fruit.
9 The heart is devious above all else; it is perverse— who can understand it?
10 I the Lord test the mind and search the heart, to give to all according to their ways, according to the fruit of their doings.

Scripture: Luke 6:17-26
17 He came down with them and stood on a level place, with a great crowd of his disciples and a great multitude of people from all Judea, Jerusalem, and the coast of Tyre and Sidon.
18 They had come to hear him and to be healed of their diseases; and those who were troubled with unclean spirits were cured.
19 And all in the crowd were trying to touch him, for power came out from him and healed all of them.
20 Then he looked up at his disciples and said: "Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God.
21 "Blessed are you who are hungry now, for you will be filled. "Blessed are you who weep now, for you will laugh.
22 "Blessed are you when people hate you, and when they exclude you, revile you, and defame you on account of the Son of Man.
23 Rejoice in that day and leap for joy, for surely your reward is great in heaven; for that is what their ancestors did to the prophets.
24 "But woe to you who are rich, for you have received your consolation.
25 "Woe to you who are full now, for you will be hungry. "Woe to you who are laughing now, for you will mourn and weep.
26 "Woe to you when all speak well of you, for that is what their ancestors did to the false prophets.

“Christ Is Risen” (Matt Maher)
Let no one caught in sin remain* Inside the lie of inward shame We fix our eyes upon the cross And run to him who showed great love And bled for us Freely you bled, for us Christ is risen from the dead Trampling over death by death Come awake, come awake! Come and rise up from the grave! Christ is risen from the dead We are one with him again Come awake, come awake! Come and rise up from the grave! Beneath the weight of all our sin You bow to none but heavens will No scheme of hell, no scoffer's crown No burden great can hold you down In strength you reign Forever let your church proclaim Christ is risen from the dead Trampling over death by death Come awake, come awake! Come and rise up from the grave Christ is risen from the dead We are one with him again Come awake, come awake! Come and rise up from the grave Oh death! Where is your sting? Oh hell! Where is your victory? Oh Church! Come stand in the light! The glory of God has defeated the night! Oh death! Where is your sting? Oh hell! Where is your victory? Oh Church! Come stand in the light! Our God is not dead, he's alive! he's alive! Christ is risen from the dead Trampling over death by death Come awake, come awake! Come and rise up from the grave Christ is risen from the dead We are one with him again Come awake, come awake! Come and rise up from the grave Rise up from the grave...
Scripture: 1 Corinthians 15:12-20
12 Now if Christ is proclaimed as raised from the dead, how can some of you say there is no resurrection of the dead?
13 If there is no resurrection of the dead, then Christ has not been raised;
14 and if Christ has not been raised, then our proclamation has been in vain and your faith has been in vain.
15 We are even found to be misrepresenting God, because we testified of God that he raised Christ—whom he did not raise if it is true that the dead are not raised.
16 For if the dead are not raised, then Christ has not been raised.
17 If Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile and you are still in your sins.
18 Then those also who have died in Christ have perished.
19 If for this life only we have hoped in Christ, we are of all people most to be pitied.
20 But in fact Christ has been raised from the dead, the first fruits of those who have died.
