16 For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first.    17 Then we who are alive and remain will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we shall always be with the Lord.     &lt;br /&gt;

1 Preserve me, O God, for I take refuge in You.    2 I said to the LORD, "You are my Lord; I have no good besides You."    3 As for the saints who are in the earth, They are the majestic ones in whom is all my delight.    4 The sorrows of those who have bartered for another god will be multiplied; I shall not pour out their drink offerings of blood, Nor will I take their names upon my lips.    5 The LORD is the portion of my inheritance and my cup; You support my lot.    6 The lines have fallen to me in pleasant places; Indeed, my heritage is beautiful to me.    7 I will bless the LORD who has counseled me; Indeed, my mind instructs me in the night.    8 I have set the LORD continually before me; Because He is at my right hand, I will not be shaken.    9 Therefore my heart is glad and my glory rejoices; My flesh also will dwell securely.    10 For You will not abandon my soul to Sheol; Nor will You allow Your Holy One to  undergo decay.   11 You will make known to me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; In Your right hand there are pleasures forever.                                                                                                                                                                                                   &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;b&gt;Sermon: &lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;You Will Be Raised Imperishable:&lt;/b&gt; &lt;cite class="bibleref" title="1 Corinthians 15:42-44"&gt;1 Corinthians 15:42-44&lt;/cite&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
12 Now if Christ is preached, that He has been raised from the dead, how do some among you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?    13 But if there is no resurrection of the dead, not even Christ has been raised;    14 and if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is vain, your faith also is vain.    15 Moreover we are even found to be false witnesses of God, because we testified against God that He raised  Christ, whom He did not raise, if in fact the dead are not raised.   16 For if the dead are not raised, not even Christ has been raised;    17 and if Christ has not been raised, your faith is worthless; you are still in your sins.    18 Then those also who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished.    19 If we have hoped in Christ in this life only, we are of all men most to be pitied.    20 But now Christ has been raised from the dead, the first fruits of those who are asleep.    21 For since by a man came death, by a man also came the resurrection of the dead.    22 For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all will be made alive.    23 But each in his own order: Christ the first fruits, after that those who are Christ's at His coming,    24 then comes the end, when He hands over the kingdom to the God and Father, when He has abolished all rule and all authority and power.    25 For He must reign until He has put all His enemies under His feet.    26 The last enemy that will be abolished is death.    27 For HE HAS PUT ALL THINGS IN SUBJECTION UNDER HIS FEET. But when He says, "All things are put in subjection," it is evident that He is excepted who put all things in subjection to Him.    28 When all things are subjected to Him, then the Son Himself also will be subjected to the One who subjected all things to Him, so that God may be all in all.    29 Otherwise, what will those do who are baptized for the dead? If the dead are not raised at all, why then are they baptized for them?    30 Why are we also in danger every hour?    31 I affirm, brethren, by the boasting in you which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily.    32 If from human motives I fought with wild beasts at Ephesus, what does it profit me? If the dead are not raised, LET US EAT AND DRINK, FOR TOMORROW WE DIE.    33 Do not be deceived: "Bad company corrupts good morals."    34 Become sober-minded as you ought, and stop sinning; for some have no knowledge of God. I speak this to your shame.    35 But someone will say, "How are the dead raised? And with what kind of body do they come?"    36 You fool! That which you sow does not come to life unless it dies;    37 and that which you sow, you do not sow the body which is to be, but a bare grain, perhaps of wheat or of something else.    38 But God gives it a body just as He wished, and to each of the seeds a body of its own.    39 All flesh is not the same flesh, but there is one flesh of men, and another flesh of beasts, and another flesh of birds, and another of fish.    40 There are also heavenly bodies and earthly bodies, but the glory of the heavenly is one, and the glory of the earthly is another.    41 There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars; for star differs from star in glory.    42 So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown a perishable body, it is raised an imperishable body;    43 it is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory; it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power;    44 it is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body. If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body.    45 So also it is written, "The first MAN, Adam, BECAME A LIVING SOUL." The last Adam became a life-giving spirit.    46 However, the spiritual is not first, but the natural; then the spiritual.    47 The first man is from the earth, earthy; the second man is from heaven.    48 As is the earthy, so also are those who are earthy; and as is the heavenly, so also are those who are heavenly.    49 Just as we have borne the image of the earthy,  we will also bear the image of the heavenly.   50 Now I say this, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable.    51 Behold, I tell you a mystery; we will not all sleep, but we will all be changed,    52 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet; for the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed.    53 For this perishable must put on the imperishable, and this mortal must put on immortality.    54 But when this perishable will have put on the imperishable, and this mortal will have put on immortality, then will come about the saying that is written, "DEATH IS SWALLOWED UP in victory.    55 "O DEATH, WHERE IS YOUR VICTORY? O DEATH, WHERE IS YOUR STING?"    56 The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law;    57 but thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.    58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your toil is not in vain in the Lord.     &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Hymn&lt;/b&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.hymnary.org/hymn/TH/542" target="_blank"&gt;542:  "Who Are These like Stars Appearing"&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

1 Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised, In the city of our God, His holy mountain.    2 Beautiful in elevation, the joy of the whole earth, Is Mount Zion in the far north, The city of the great King.    3 God, in her palaces, Has made Himself known as a stronghold.    4 For, lo, the kings assembled themselves, They passed by together.    5 They saw it, then they were amazed; They were terrified, they fled in alarm.    6 Panic seized them there, Anguish, as of a woman in childbirth.    7 With the east wind You break the ships of Tarshish.    8 As we have heard, so have we seen In the city of the LORD of hosts, in the city of our God; God will establish her forever. Selah.    9 We have thought on Your lovingkindness, O God, In the midst of Your temple.    10 As is Your name, O God, So is Your praise to the ends of the earth; Your right hand is full of righteousness.    11 Let Mount Zion be glad, Let the daughters of Judah rejoice Because of Your judgments.    12 Walk about Zion and go around her; Count her towers;    13 Consider her ramparts; Go through her palaces, That you may tell it to the next generation.    14 For such is God, Our God forever and ever; He will guide us  until death.                                                                                                                                                                                               &lt;br /&gt;

1 For this reason we must pay much closer attention to what we have heard, so that we do not drift away from it.    2 For if the word spoken through angels proved unalterable, and every transgression and disobedience received a just penalty,    3 how will we escape if we neglect so great a salvation? After it was at the first spoken through the Lord, it was confirmed to us by those who heard,    4 God also testifying with them, both by signs and wonders and by various miracles and by gifts of the Holy Spirit according to His own will.    5 For He did not subject to angels the world to come, concerning which we are speaking.    6 But one has testified somewhere, saying, "WHAT IS MAN, THAT YOU REMEMBER HIM? OR THE SON OF MAN, THAT YOU ARE CONCERNED ABOUT HIM?    7 "YOU HAVE MADE HIM FOR A LITTLE WHILE LOWER THAN THE ANGELS; YOU HAVE CROWNED HIM WITH GLORY AND HONOR,  AND HAVE APPOINTED HIM OVER THE WORKS OF YOUR HANDS;   8 YOU HAVE PUT ALL THINGS IN SUBJECTION UNDER HIS FEET." For in subjecting all things to him, He left nothing that is not subject to him. But now we do not yet see all things subjected to him.    9 But we do see Him who was made for a little while lower than the angels, namely, Jesus, because of the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor, so that by the grace of God He might taste death for everyone.    10 For it was fitting for Him, for whom are all things, and through whom are all things, in bringing many sons to glory, to perfect the author of their salvation through sufferings.    11 For both He who sanctifies and those who are sanctified are all from one Father; for which reason He is not ashamed to call them brethren,    12 saying, "I WILL PROCLAIM YOUR NAME TO MY BRETHREN, IN THE MIDST OF THE CONGREGATION I WILL SING YOUR PRAISE."    13 And again, "I WILL PUT MY TRUST IN HIM." And again, "BEHOLD, I AND THE CHILDREN WHOM GOD HAS GIVEN ME."    14 Therefore, since the children share in flesh and blood, He Himself likewise also partook of the same, that through death He might render powerless him who had the power of death, that is, the devil,    15 and might free those who through fear of death were subject to slavery all their lives.    16 For assuredly He does not give help to angels, but He gives help to the descendant of Abraham.    17 Therefore, He had to be made like His brethren in all things, so that He might become a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people.    18 For since He Himself was tempted in that which He has suffered, He is able to come to the aid of those who are tempted.     &lt;br /&gt;

1 How blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked, Nor stand in the path of sinners, Nor sit in the seat of scoffers!    2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD, And in His law he meditates day and night.    3 He will be like a tree firmly planted by streams of water, Which yields its fruit in its season And its leaf does not wither; And in whatever he does, he prospers.    4 The wicked are not so, But they are like chaff which the wind drives away.    5 Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, Nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.    6 For the LORD knows the way of the righteous, But the way of the wicked will perish.                                                                                                                                                                                                        &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;b&gt;Sermon: &lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;Fruitfulness in Old Age:&lt;/b&gt; &lt;cite class="bibleref" title="Psalm 92:12-15"&gt;Psalm 92:12-15&lt;/cite&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
1 It is good to give thanks to the LORD And to sing praises to Your name, O Most High;    2 To declare Your lovingkindness in the morning And Your faithfulness by night,    3 With the ten-stringed lute and with the harp, With resounding music upon the lyre.    4 For You, O LORD, have made me glad by what You have done, I will sing for joy at the works of Your hands.    5 How great are Your works, O LORD! Your thoughts are very deep.    6 A senseless man has no knowledge, Nor does a stupid man understand this:    7 That when the wicked sprouted up like grass And all who did iniquity flourished, It was only that they might be destroyed forevermore.    8 But You, O LORD, are on high forever.    9 For, behold, Your enemies, O LORD, For, behold, Your enemies will perish; All who do iniquity will be scattered.    10 But You have exalted my horn like that of the wild ox; I have been anointed with fresh oil.    11 And my eye has looked exultantly upon my foes, My ears hear of the evildoers who rise up against me.    12 The righteous man will flourish like the palm tree, He will grow like a cedar in Lebanon.    13 Planted in the house of the LORD, They will flourish in the courts of our God.    14 They will still yield fruit in old age; They shall be  full of sap and very green,   15 To declare that the LORD is upright; He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in Him.     &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Hymn&lt;/b&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.hymnary.org/hymn/TH/635" target="_blank"&gt;635:  "How Good It Is to Thank the Lord"&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;b&gt;Call to Worship:&lt;/b&gt; &lt;cite class="bibleref" title="Psalm 34"&gt;Psalm 34&lt;/cite&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
1 I will bless the LORD at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth.    2 My soul will make its boast in the LORD; The humble will hear it and rejoice.    3 O magnify the LORD with me, And let us exalt His name together.    4 I sought the LORD, and He answered me, And delivered me from all my fears.    5 They looked to Him and were radiant, And their faces will never be ashamed.    6 This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him And saved him out of all his troubles.    7 The angel of the LORD encamps around those who fear Him, And rescues them.    8 O taste and see that the LORD is good; How blessed is the man who takes refuge in Him!    9 O fear the LORD, you His saints; For to those who fear Him there is no want.    10 The young lions do lack and suffer hunger; But they who seek the LORD shall not be in want of any good thing.    11 Come, you children, listen to me; I will teach you the fear of the LORD.    12 Who is the man who desires life And loves length of days that he may see good?    13 Keep your tongue from evil And your lips from speaking deceit.    14 Depart from evil and do good; Seek peace and pursue it.    15 The eyes of the LORD are toward the righteous And His ears are open to their cry.    16 The face of the LORD is against evildoers, To cut off the memory of them from the earth.    17 The righteous cry, and the LORD hears And delivers them out of all their troubles.    18 The LORD is near to the brokenhearted And saves those who are  crushed in spirit.   19 Many are the afflictions of the righteous, But the LORD delivers him out of them all.    20 He keeps all his bones, Not one of them is broken.    21 Evil shall slay the wicked, And those who hate the righteous will be condemned.    22 The LORD redeems the soul of His servants, And none of those who take refuge in Him will be condemned.                                                                                                                                                                                        &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;b&gt;Sermon: &lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;The Ministry of Angels:&lt;/b&gt; &lt;cite class="bibleref" title="Hebrews 1:14"&gt;Hebrews 1:14&lt;/cite&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
1 God, after He spoke long ago to the fathers in the prophets in many portions and in many ways,    2 in these last days has spoken to us in His Son, whom He appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the world.    3 And He is the radiance of His glory and the exact representation of His nature, and upholds all things by the word of His power. When He had made purification of sins, He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high,    4 having become as much better than the angels, as He has inherited a more excellent name than they.    5 For to which of the angels did He ever say, "YOU ARE MY SON, TODAY I HAVE BEGOTTEN YOU"? And again, "I WILL BE A FATHER TO HIM AND HE SHALL BE A SON TO ME"?    6 And when He again brings the firstborn into the world, He says, "AND LET ALL THE ANGELS OF GOD WORSHIP HIM."    7 And of the angels He says, "WHO MAKES HIS ANGELS WINDS, AND HIS MINISTERS A FLAME OF FIRE."    8 But of the Son He says, "YOUR THRONE, O GOD, IS FOREVER AND EVER, AND THE RIGHTEOUS SCEPTER IS THE SCEPTER OF  HIS KINGDOM.   9 "YOU HAVE LOVED RIGHTEOUSNESS AND HATED LAWLESSNESS; THEREFORE GOD, YOUR GOD, HAS ANOINTED YOU WITH THE OIL OF GLADNESS ABOVE YOUR COMPANIONS."    10 And, "YOU, LORD, IN THE BEGINNING LAID THE FOUNDATION OF THE EARTH, AND THE HEAVENS ARE THE WORKS OF YOUR HANDS;    11 THEY WILL PERISH, BUT YOU REMAIN; AND THEY ALL WILL BECOME OLD LIKE A GARMENT,    12 AND LIKE A MANTLE YOU WILL ROLL THEM UP; LIKE A GARMENT THEY WILL ALSO BE CHANGED. BUT YOU ARE THE SAME, AND YOUR YEARS WILL NOT COME TO AN END."    13 But to which of the angels has He ever said, "SIT AT MY RIGHT HAND, UNTIL I MAKE YOUR ENEMIES A FOOTSTOOL FOR YOUR FEET"?    14 Are they not all ministering spirits, sent out to render service for the sake of those who will inherit salvation?     &lt;br /&gt;

If God is for us, who is against us?    32 He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him over for us all, how will He not also with Him freely give us all things?    33 Who will bring a charge against God's elect? God is the one who justifies;    34 who is the one who condemns? Christ Jesus is He who died, yes, rather who was  raised, who is at the right hand of God, who also intercedes for us.   35 Who will separate us from the love of  Christ? Will tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?   36 Just as it is written, "FOR YOUR SAKE WE ARE BEING PUT TO DEATH ALL DAY LONG; WE WERE CONSIDERED AS SHEEP TO BE SLAUGHTERED."    37 But in all these things we overwhelmingly conquer through Him who loved us.    38 For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers,    39 nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.     &lt;br&gt;  &lt;b&gt;Hymn&lt;/b&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.hymnary.org/hymn/TH/305" target="_blank"&gt;305:  "Arise, My Soul, Arise"&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;  &lt;b&gt;Benediction&lt;/b&gt; &lt;br&gt;  &lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;hr color="#CBC3BD"&gt;   View the  &lt;a href="http://www.graceopcmodesto.org/audioRecording.htm?recording=2343" target="_blank"&gt;web site page&lt;/a&gt; for this sermon (for speaking notes, etc., when available). &lt;br&gt;  &lt;hr color="#CBC3BD"&gt;   &lt;a href="http://www.graceopcmodesto.org"&gt;http://www.graceopmodesto.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;a href="http://s1105.photobucket.com/albums/h348/gopcmodesto/?action=view&amp;amp;current=live.png" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://i1105.photobucket.com/albums/h348/gopcmodesto/th_live.png" border="0"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1054816716682249909-2835136730772341977?l=gopcmodestopm.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="feedflare"&gt;

&lt;b&gt;Call to Worship:&lt;/b&gt; &lt;cite class="bibleref" title="Psalm 73"&gt;Psalm 73&lt;/cite&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
1 Surely God is good to Israel, To those who are pure in heart!    2 But as for me, my feet came close to stumbling, My steps had almost slipped.    3 For I was envious of the arrogant As I saw the prosperity of the wicked.    4 For there are no pains in their death, And their body is fat.    5 They are not in trouble as other men, Nor are they plagued like mankind.    6 Therefore pride is their necklace; The garment of violence covers them.    7 Their eye bulges from fatness; The imaginations of their heart run riot.    8 They mock and wickedly speak of oppression; They speak from on high.    9 They have set their mouth against the heavens, And their tongue parades through the earth.    10 Therefore his people return to this place, And waters of abundance are drunk by them.    11 They say, "How does God know? And is there knowledge with the Most High?"    12 Behold, these are the wicked; And always at ease, they have increased in wealth.    13 Surely in vain I have kept my heart pure And washed my hands in innocence;    14 For I have been stricken all day long And chastened every morning.    15 If I had said, "I will speak thus," Behold, I would have betrayed the generation of Your children.    16 When I pondered to understand this, It was troublesome in my sight    17 Until I came into the sanctuary of God; Then I perceived their end.    18 Surely You set them in slippery places; You cast them down to destruction.    19 How they are destroyed in a moment! They are utterly swept away by sudden terrors!    20 Like a dream when one awakes, O Lord, when aroused, You will despise their form.    21 When my heart was embittered And I was pierced within,    22 Then I was senseless and ignorant; I was like a beast before You.    23 Nevertheless I am continually with You; You have taken hold of my right hand.    24 With Your counsel You will guide me, And afterward receive me to glory.    25 Whom have I in heaven but You? And besides You, I desire nothing on earth.    26 My flesh and my heart may fail, But God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.    27 For, behold, those who are far from You will perish; You have destroyed all those who are unfaithful to You.    28 But as for me, the nearness of God is my good; I have made the Lord GOD my refuge, That I may tell of all Your works.                                                                                                                                                                                  &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;b&gt;Sermon: &lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;The Blessing of Discipline:&lt;/b&gt; &lt;cite class="bibleref" title="Hebrews 12:3-14"&gt;Hebrews 12:3-14&lt;/cite&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
1 Therefore, since we have so great a cloud of witnesses surrounding us, let us also lay aside every encumbrance and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us,    2 fixing our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.    3 For consider Him who has endured such hostility by sinners against Himself, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart.    4 You have not yet resisted to the point of shedding blood in your striving against sin;    5 and you have forgotten the exhortation which is addressed to you as sons, "MY SON, DO NOT REGARD LIGHTLY THE DISCIPLINE OF THE LORD, NOR FAINT WHEN YOU ARE REPROVED BY HIM;    6 FOR THOSE WHOM THE LORD LOVES HE DISCIPLINES, AND HE SCOURGES EVERY SON WHOM HE RECEIVES."    7 It is for discipline that you endure; God deals with you as with sons; for what son is there whom his father does not discipline?    8 But if you are without discipline, of which all have become partakers, then you are illegitimate children and not sons.    9 Furthermore, we had earthly fathers to discipline us, and we respected them; shall we not much rather be subject to the Father of spirits, and live?    10 For they disciplined us for a short time as seemed best to them, but He disciplines us for our good, so that we may share His holiness.    11 All discipline for the moment seems not to be joyful, but sorrowful; yet to those who have been trained by it, afterwards it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness.    12 Therefore, strengthen the hands that are weak and the knees that are feeble,    13 and make straight paths for your feet, so that the limb which is lame may not be put out of joint, but rather be healed.    14 Pursue peace with all men, and the sanctification without which no one will see the Lord.     &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Hymn&lt;/b&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.hymnary.org/hymn/TH/534" target="_blank"&gt;534:  "O for a Closer Walk with God"&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

7 Because of the surpassing greatness of the revelations, for this reason, to keep me from exalting myself, there was given me a thorn in the flesh, a messenger of Satan to torment me - to keep me from exalting myself!    8 Concerning this I implored the Lord three times that it might leave me.    9 And He has said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness." Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me.     &lt;br /&gt;

1 O come, let us sing for joy to the LORD, Let us shout joyfully to the rock of our salvation.    2 Let us come before His presence with thanksgiving, Let us shout joyfully to Him with psalms.    3 For the LORD is a great God And a great King above all gods,    4 In whose hand are the depths of the earth, The peaks of the mountains are His also.    5 The sea is His, for it was He who made it, And His hands formed the dry land.    6 Come, let us worship and bow down, Let us kneel before the LORD our Maker.    7 For He is our God, And we are the people of His pasture and the sheep of His hand. Today, if you would hear His voice,     &lt;br /&gt;

45 Then Pharaoh named Joseph  Zaphenath-paneah; and he gave him Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera priest of On, as his wife. And Joseph went forth over the land of Egypt.   46 Now Joseph was thirty years old when he  stood before Pharaoh, king of Egypt. And Joseph went out from the presence of Pharaoh and went through all the land of Egypt.   47 During the seven years of plenty the land brought forth abundantly.    48 So he gathered all the food of these seven years which occurred in the land of Egypt and placed the food in the cities; he placed in every city the food from its own surrounding fields.    49 Thus Joseph stored up grain in great abundance like the sand of the sea, until he stopped measuring it, for it was beyond measure.    50 Now before the year of famine came, two sons were born to Joseph, whom Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera priest of  On, bore to him.   51 Joseph named the firstborn  Manasseh, "For," he said, "God has made me forget all my trouble and all my father's household."   52 He named the second  Ephraim, "For," he said, "God has made me fruitful in the land of my affliction."   53 When the seven years of plenty which had been in the land of Egypt came to an end,    54 and the seven years of famine began to come, just as Joseph had said, then there was famine in all the lands, but in all the land of Egypt there was bread.    55 So when all the land of Egypt was famished, the people cried out to Pharaoh for bread; and Pharaoh said to all the Egyptians, "Go to Joseph; whatever he says to you, you shall do."    56 When the famine was spread over all the face of the earth, then Joseph opened all the storehouses, and sold to the Egyptians; and the famine was severe in the land of Egypt.    57 The people of all the earth came to Egypt to buy grain from Joseph, because the famine was severe in all the earth.     &lt;br /&gt;

I implore You by God, do not torment me!"    8 For He had been saying to him, "Come out of the man, you unclean spirit!"     &lt;br /&gt;

1 My son, if you will receive my words And treasure my commandments within you,    2 Make your ear attentive to wisdom, Incline your heart to understanding;    3 For if you cry for discernment, Lift your voice for understanding;    4 If you seek her as silver And search for her as for hidden treasures;    5 Then you will discern the fear of the LORD And discover the knowledge of God.    6 For the LORD gives wisdom; From His mouth come knowledge and understanding.    7 He stores up sound wisdom for the upright; He is a shield to those who walk in integrity,    8 Guarding the paths of justice, And He preserves the way of His godly ones.    9 Then you will discern righteousness and justice And equity and every good course.    10 For wisdom will enter your heart And knowledge will be pleasant to your soul;    11 Discretion will guard you, Understanding will watch over you,    12 To deliver you from the way of evil, From the man who speaks perverse things;    13 From those who leave the paths of uprightness To walk in the ways of darkness;    14 Who delight in doing evil And rejoice in the perversity of evil;    15 Whose paths are crooked, And who are devious in their ways;    16 To deliver you from the strange woman, From the adulteress who flatters with her words;    17 That leaves the companion of her youth And forgets the covenant of her God;    18 For her house sinks down to death And her tracks lead to the dead;    19 None who go to her return again, Nor do they reach the paths of life.    20 So you will walk in the way of good men And keep to the paths of the righteous.    21 For the upright will live in the land And the blameless will remain in it;    22 But the wicked will be cut off from the land And the treacherous will be uprooted from it.                                                                                                                                                                                        &lt;br /&gt;

1 How blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, Whose sin is covered!    2 How blessed is the man to whom the LORD does not impute iniquity, And in whose spirit there is no deceit!    3 When I kept silent about my sin, my body wasted away Through my groaning all day long.    4 For day and night Your hand was heavy upon me; My vitality was drained away as with the fever heat of summer. Selah.    5 I acknowledged my sin to You, And my iniquity I did not hide; I said, "I will confess my transgressions to the LORD"; And You forgave the guilt of my sin. Selah.    6 Therefore, let everyone who is godly pray to You in a time when You may be found; Surely in a flood of great waters they will not reach him.    7 You are my hiding place; You preserve me from trouble; You surround me with songs of deliverance. Selah.    8 I will instruct you and teach you in the way which you should go; I will counsel you with My eye upon you.    9 Do not be as the horse or as the mule which have no understanding, Whose trappings include bit and bridle to hold them in check, Otherwise they will not come near to you.    10 Many are the sorrows of the wicked, But he who trusts in the LORD, lovingkindness shall surround him.    11 Be glad in the LORD and rejoice, you righteous ones; And shout for joy, all you who are upright in heart.     &lt;br /&gt;

11 Therefore remember that formerly you, the Gentiles in the flesh, who are called "Uncircumcision" by the so-called "Circumcision," which is performed in the flesh by human hands -     12 remember that you were at that time separate from Christ, excluded from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers to the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world.    13 But now in Christ Jesus you who formerly were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ.    14 For He Himself is our peace, who made both groups into one and broke down the barrier of the dividing wall,    15 by abolishing in His flesh the enmity, which is the Law of commandments contained in ordinances, so that in Himself He might make the two into one new man, thus establishing peace,    16 and might reconcile them both in one body to God through the cross, by it having put to death the enmity.    17 AND HE CAME AND PREACHED PEACE TO YOU WHO WERE FAR AWAY, AND PEACE TO THOSE WHO WERE NEAR;    18 for through Him we both have our access in one Spirit to the Father.    19 So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints, and are of God's household,    20 having been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus Himself being the corner stone,    21 in whom the whole building, being fitted together, is growing into a holy temple in the Lord,    22 in whom you also are being built together into a dwelling of God in the Spirit.     &lt;br /&gt;

3 As I urged you upon my departure for Macedonia, remain on at Ephesus so that you may instruct certain men not to teach strange doctrines,    4 nor to pay attention to myths and endless genealogies, which give rise to mere speculation rather than furthering the administration of God which is by faith.    5 But the goal of our instruction is love from a pure heart and a good conscience and a sincere faith.    6 For some men, straying from these things, have turned aside to fruitless discussion,     &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Reflection&lt;/b&gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Call to Worship:&lt;/b&gt; &lt;cite class="bibleref" title="Psalm 125"&gt;Psalm 125&lt;/cite&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
1 Paul and Timothy, bond-servants of Christ Jesus, To all the saints in Christ Jesus who are in Philippi, including the overseers and deacons:    2 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.    3 I thank my God in all my remembrance of you,    4 always offering prayer with joy in my every prayer for you all,    5 in view of your participation in the gospel from the first day until now.    6 For I am confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus.    7 For it is only right for me to feel this way about you all, because I have you in my heart, since both in my imprisonment and in the defense and confirmation of the gospel, you all are partakers of grace with me.    8 For God is my witness, how I long for you all with the affection of Christ Jesus.    9 And this I pray, that your love may abound still more and more in real knowledge and all discernment,    10 so that you may approve the things that are excellent, in order to be sincere and blameless until the day of Christ;    11 having been filled with the fruit of righteousness which comes through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.    12 Now I want you to know, brethren, that my circumstances have turned out for the greater progress of the gospel,    13 so that my imprisonment in the cause of Christ has become well known throughout the whole  praetorian guard and to everyone else,   14 and that most of the brethren, trusting in the Lord because of my imprisonment, have far more courage to speak the word of God without fear.    15 Some, to be sure, are preaching Christ even from envy and strife, but some also from good will;    16 the latter do it out of love, knowing that I am appointed for the defense of the gospel;    17 the former proclaim Christ out of selfish ambition rather than from pure motives, thinking to cause me distress in my imprisonment.    18 What then? Only that in every way, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is proclaimed; and in this I rejoice. Yes, and I will rejoice,    19 for I know that this will turn out for my deliverance through your prayers and the provision of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,    20 according to my earnest expectation and hope, that I will not be put to shame in anything, but that with all boldness, Christ will even now, as always, be exalted in my body, whether by life or by death.    21 For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain.    22 But if I am to live on in the flesh, this will mean fruitful labor for me; and I do not know which to choose.    23 But I am hard-pressed from both directions, having the desire to depart and be with Christ, for that is very much better;    24 yet to remain on in the flesh is more necessary for your sake.    25 Convinced of this, I know that I will remain and continue with you all for your progress and joy in the faith,    26 so that your proud confidence in me may abound in Christ Jesus through my coming to you again.    27 Only conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you or remain absent, I will hear of you that you are standing firm in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel;    28 in no way alarmed by your opponents - which is a sign of destruction for them, but of salvation for you, and that too, from God.    29 For to you it has been granted for Christ's sake, not only to believe in Him, but also to suffer for His sake,    30 experiencing the same conflict which you saw in me, and now hear to be in me.                                                                                                                                                                                &lt;br /&gt;

22 At that time the Feast of the Dedication took place at Jerusalem;    23 it was winter, and Jesus was walking in the temple in the portico of Solomon.    24 The Jews then gathered around Him, and were saying to Him, "How long will You keep us in suspense? If You are the Christ, tell us plainly."    25 Jesus answered them, "I told you, and you do not believe; the works that I do in My Father's name, these testify of Me.    26 "But you do not believe because you are not of My sheep.    27 "My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me;    28 and I give eternal life to them, and they will never perish; and no one will snatch them out of My hand.    29 " My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of the Father's hand.    &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Hymn&lt;/b&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.hymnary.org/hymn/TH/707" target="_blank"&gt;707:  "Jesus, I My Cross Have Taken"&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

1 My God, my God, why have You forsaken me? Far from my deliverance are the words of my groaning.    2 O my God, I cry by day, but You do not answer; And by night, but I have no rest.    3 Yet You are holy, O You who are enthroned upon the praises of Israel.    4 In You our fathers trusted; They trusted and You delivered them.    5 To You they cried out and were delivered; In You they trusted and were not disappointed.    6 But I am a worm and not a man, A reproach of men and despised by the people.    7 All who see me sneer at me; They  separate with the lip, they wag the head, saying,   8 " Commit yourself to the LORD; let Him deliver him; Let Him rescue him, because He delights in him."   9 Yet You are He who brought me forth from the womb; You made me trust when upon my mother's breasts.    10 Upon You I was cast from birth; You have been my God from my mother's womb.    11 Be not far from me, for trouble is near; For there is none to help.    12 Many bulls have surrounded me; Strong bulls of Bashan have encircled me.    13 They open wide their mouth at me, As a ravening and a roaring lion.    14 I am poured out like water, And all my bones are out of joint; My heart is like wax; It is melted within me.    15 My strength is dried up like a potsherd, And my tongue cleaves to my jaws; And You lay me in the dust of death.    16 For dogs have surrounded me; A band of evildoers has encompassed me; They pierced my hands and my feet.    17 I can count all my bones. They look, they stare at me;    18 They divide my garments among them, And for my clothing they cast lots.    19 But You, O LORD, be not far off; O You my help, hasten to my assistance.    20 Deliver my soul from the sword, My only life from the power of the dog.    21 Save me from the lion's mouth; From the horns of the wild oxen You answer me.    22 I will tell of Your name to my brethren; In the midst of the assembly I will praise You.    23 You who fear the LORD, praise Him; All you descendants of Jacob, glorify Him, And stand in awe of Him, all you descendants of Israel.    24 For He has not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; Nor has He hidden His face from him; But when he cried to Him for help, He heard.    25 From You comes my praise in the great assembly; I shall pay my vows before those who fear Him.    26 The  afflicted will eat and be satisfied; Those who seek Him will praise the LORD. Let your heart live forever!   27 All the ends of the earth will remember and turn to the LORD, And all the families of the nations will worship before You.    28 For the kingdom is the LORD'S And He rules over the nations.    29 All the prosperous of the earth will eat and worship, All those who go down to the dust will bow before Him, Even he who cannot keep his soul alive.    30 Posterity will serve Him; It will be told of the Lord to the coming generation.    31 They will come and will declare His righteousness To a people who will be born, that He has performed it.                                                                                                                                                                               &lt;br /&gt;

11 Therefore remember that formerly you, the Gentiles in the flesh, who are called "Uncircumcision" by the so-called "Circumcision," which is performed in the flesh by human hands -     12 remember that you were at that time separate from Christ, excluded from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers to the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world.    13 But now in Christ Jesus you who formerly were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ.    14 For He Himself is our peace, who made both groups into one and broke down the barrier of the dividing wall,    15 by abolishing in His flesh the enmity, which is the Law of commandments contained in ordinances, so that in Himself He might make the two into one new man, thus establishing peace,    16 and might reconcile them both in one body to God through the cross, by it having put to death the enmity.    17 AND HE CAME AND PREACHED PEACE TO YOU WHO WERE FAR AWAY, AND PEACE TO THOSE WHO WERE NEAR;    18 for through Him we both have our access in one Spirit to the Father.    19 So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints, and are of God's household,    20 having been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus Himself being the corner stone,    21 in whom the whole building, being fitted together, is growing into a holy temple in the Lord,    22 in whom you also are being built together into a dwelling of God in the Spirit.     &lt;br /&gt;

4 But when the fullness of the time came, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the Law,    5 so that He might redeem those who were under the Law, that we might receive the adoption as sons.    6 Because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into our hearts, crying, "Abba!

1 Bless the LORD, O my soul, And all that is within me, bless His holy name.    2 Bless the LORD, O my soul, And forget none of His benefits;    3 Who pardons all your iniquities, Who heals all your diseases;    4 Who redeems your life from the pit, Who crowns you with lovingkindness and compassion;    5 Who satisfies your  years with good things, So that your youth is renewed like the eagle.   6 The LORD performs righteous deeds And judgments for all who are oppressed.    7 He made known His ways to Moses, His acts to the sons of Israel.    8 The LORD is compassionate and gracious, Slow to anger and abounding in lovingkindness.    9 He will not always strive with us, Nor will He keep His anger forever.    10 He has not dealt with us according to our sins, Nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.    11 For as high as the heavens are above the earth, So great is His lovingkindness toward those who  fear Him.   12 As far as the east is from the west, So far has He removed our transgressions from us.    13 Just as a father has compassion on his children, So the LORD has compassion on those who fear Him.    14 For He Himself knows  our frame; He is mindful that we are but dust.   15 As for man, his days are like grass; As a flower of the field, so he flourishes.    16 When the wind has passed over it, it is no more, And its place acknowledges it no longer.    17 But the lovingkindness of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting on those who  fear Him, And His righteousness to children's children,   18 To those who keep His covenant And remember His precepts to do them.    19 The LORD has established His throne in the heavens, And His  sovereignty rules over all.   20 Bless the LORD, you His angels, Mighty in strength, who perform His word, Obeying the voice of His word!    21 Bless the LORD, all you His hosts, You who serve Him, doing His will.    22 Bless the LORD, all you works of His, In all places of His dominion; Bless the LORD, O my soul!                                                                                                                                                                                        &lt;br /&gt;

1 Therefore there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.    2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and of death.    3 For what the Law could not do, weak as it was through the flesh, God did: sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and as an offering for sin, He condemned sin in the flesh,    4 so that the requirement of the Law might be fulfilled in us, who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.    5 For those who are according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who are according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.    6 For the mind set on the flesh is death, but the mind set on the Spirit is life and peace,    7 because the mind set on the flesh is hostile toward God; for it does not subject itself to the law of God, for it is not even able to do so,    8 and those who are in the flesh cannot please God.    9 However, you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. But if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Him.    10 If Christ is in you, though the body is dead because of sin, yet the spirit is alive because of righteousness.    11 But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies  through His Spirit who dwells in you.   12 So then, brethren, we are under obligation, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh -     13 for if you are living according to the flesh, you must die; but if by the Spirit you are putting to death the deeds of the body, you will live.    14 For all who are being led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God.    15 For you have not received a spirit of slavery leading to fear again, but you have received a spirit of adoption as sons by which we cry out, "Abba! Father!"    16 The Spirit Himself testifies with our spirit that we are children of God,    17 and if children, heirs also, heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him so that we may also be glorified with Him.     &lt;br /&gt;

Answer me in Your faithfulness, in Your righteousness!    2 And do not enter into judgment with Your servant, For in Your sight no man living is righteous.    3 For the enemy has persecuted my soul; He has crushed my life to the ground; He has made me dwell in dark places, like those who have long been dead.    4 Therefore my spirit is overwhelmed within me; My heart is  appalled within me.   5 I remember the days of old; I meditate on all Your doings; I muse on the work of Your hands.    6 I stretch out my hands to You; My soul longs for You, as a parched land. Selah.    7 Answer me quickly, O LORD, my spirit fails; Do not hide Your face from me, Or I will become like those who go down to the pit.    8 Let me hear Your lovingkindness in the morning; For I trust in You; Teach me the way in which I should walk; For to You I lift up my soul.    9 Deliver me, O LORD, from my enemies; I take refuge in You.    10 Teach me to do Your will, For You are my God; Let Your good Spirit lead me on level ground.    11 For the sake of Your name, O LORD, revive me. In Your righteousness bring my soul out of trouble.    12 And in Your lovingkindness, cut off my enemies And destroy all those who afflict my soul, For I am Your servant.                                                                                                                                                                                                  &lt;br&gt;  &lt;b&gt;Invocation&lt;/b&gt; &lt;br&gt;  &lt;b&gt;Hymn&lt;/b&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.hymnary.org/hymn/TH/332" target="_blank"&gt;332:  "Come, Holy Spirit, Heavenly Dove"&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;  &lt;b&gt;Offering&lt;/b&gt; &lt;br&gt;  &lt;b&gt;Prayer&lt;/b&gt; &lt;br&gt;  &lt;b&gt;Sermon: &lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;How to Overcome Sin:&lt;/b&gt; &lt;cite class="bibleref" title="Galatians 5:16-17"&gt;Galatians 5:16-17&lt;/cite&gt;&lt;br&gt;  13 For you were called to freedom, brethren; only do not turn your freedom into an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another.    14 For the whole Law is fulfilled in one word, in the statement, "YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF."    15 But if you bite and devour one another, take care that you are not consumed by one another.    16 But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not carry out the desire of the flesh.    17 For the flesh sets its desire against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; for these are in opposition to one another, so that you may not do the things that you please.    18 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the Law.    19 Now the deeds of the flesh are evident, which are: immorality, impurity, sensuality,    20 idolatry, sorcery, enmities, strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, disputes, dissensions, factions,    21 envying, drunkenness, carousing, and things like these, of which I forewarn you, just as I have forewarned you, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.    22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,    23 gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law.    24 Now those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.    25 If we live by the Spirit, let us also walk by the Spirit.    26 Let us not become boastful, challenging one another, envying one another.     &lt;br&gt;  &lt;b&gt;Hymn&lt;/b&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.hymnary.org/hymn/TH/335" target="_blank"&gt;335:  "Gracious Spirit, Dwell with Me"&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;  &lt;b&gt;Benediction&lt;/b&gt; &lt;br&gt;  &lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;hr color="#CBC3BD"&gt;   View the  &lt;a href="http://www.graceopcmodesto.org/audioRecording.htm?recording=2308" target="_blank"&gt;web site page&lt;/a&gt; for this sermon (for speaking notes, etc., when available). &lt;br&gt;  &lt;hr color="#CBC3BD"&gt;   &lt;a href="http://www.graceopcmodesto.org"&gt;http://www.graceopmodesto.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;a href="http://s1105.photobucket.com/albums/h348/gopcmodesto/?action=view&amp;amp;current=live.png" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://i1105.photobucket.com/albums/h348/gopcmodesto/th_live.png" border="0"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1054816716682249909-2933722484931665912?l=gopcmodestopm.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="feedflare"&gt;

25 For He must reign until He has put all His enemies under His feet.    26 The last enemy that will be abolished is death.    27 For HE HAS PUT ALL THINGS IN SUBJECTION UNDER HIS FEET. But when He says, "All things are put in subjection," it is evident that He is excepted who put all things in subjection to Him.     &lt;br /&gt;

And who may stand in His holy place?    4 He who has clean hands and a pure heart, Who has not lifted up his soul to falsehood And has not sworn deceitfully.    5 He shall receive a blessing from the LORD And righteousness from the God of his salvation.    6 This is the generation of those who seek Him, Who seek Your face - even Jacob. Selah.    7 Lift up your heads, O gates, And be lifted up, O  ancient doors, That the King of glory may come in!   8 Who is the King of glory? The LORD strong and mighty, The LORD mighty in battle.    9 Lift up your heads, O gates, And lift them up, O  ancient doors, That the King of glory may come in!   10 Who is this King of glory? The LORD of hosts, He is the King of glory. Selah.     &lt;br /&gt;

1 Therefore, since Christ has  suffered in the flesh, arm yourselves also with the same purpose, because he who has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin,   2 so as to live the rest of the time in the flesh no longer for the lusts of men, but for the will of God.     &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Reflection&lt;/b&gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Call to Worship:&lt;/b&gt; &lt;cite class="bibleref" title="Psalm 5"&gt;Psalm 5&lt;/cite&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
1 Give ear to my words, O LORD, Consider my  groaning.   2 Heed the sound of my cry for help, my King and my God, For to You I pray.    3 In the morning, O LORD, You will hear my voice; In the morning I will order my prayer to You and eagerly watch.    4 For You are not a God who takes pleasure in wickedness; No evil dwells with You.    5 The boastful shall not stand before Your eyes; You hate all who do iniquity.    6 You destroy those who speak falsehood; The LORD abhors the man of bloodshed and deceit.    7 But as for me, by Your abundant lovingkindness I will enter Your house, At Your holy temple I will bow in reverence for You.    8 O LORD, lead me in Your righteousness because of my foes; Make Your way straight before me.    9 There is nothing reliable in what they say; Their inward part is destruction itself. Their throat is an open grave; They flatter with their tongue.    10 Hold them guilty, O God; By their own devices let them fall! In the multitude of their transgressions thrust them out, For they are rebellious against You.    11 But let all who take refuge in You be glad, Let them ever sing for joy; And may You shelter them, That those who love Your name may exult in You.    12 For it is You who blesses the righteous man, O LORD, You surround him with favor as with a shield.                                                                                                                                                                                                  &lt;br /&gt;

1 What shall we say then? Are we to continue in sin so that grace may increase?    2 May it never be! How shall we who died to sin still live in it?    3 Or do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus have been baptized into His death?    4 Therefore we have been buried with Him through baptism into death, so that as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we too might walk in newness of life.    5 For if we have become united with Him in the likeness of His death, certainly we shall also be in the likeness of His resurrection,    6 knowing this, that our old self was crucified with Him, in order that our body of sin might be done away with, so that we would no longer be slaves to sin;    7 for he who has died is freed from sin.     &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Hymn&lt;/b&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.hymnary.org/hymn/TH/529" target="_blank"&gt;529:  "Love Divine, All Loves Excelling"&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Their throat is an open grave; They flatter with their tongue.    10 Hold them guilty, O God; By their own devices let them fall!

"ABRAHAM BELIEVED GOD, AND IT WAS CREDITED TO HIM AS RIGHTEOUSNESS."    4 Now to the one who works, his wage is not credited as a favor, but as what is due.    5 But to the one who does not work, but believes in Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is credited as righteousness,    6 just as David also speaks of the blessing on the man to whom God credits righteousness apart from works:    7 "BLESSED ARE THOSE WHOSE LAWLESS DEEDS HAVE BEEN FORGIVEN, AND WHOSE SINS HAVE BEEN COVERED.    8 "BLESSED IS THE MAN WHOSE SIN THE LORD WILL NOT TAKE INTO ACCOUNT."     &lt;br&gt;  &lt;b&gt;Hymn&lt;/b&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.hymnary.org/hymn/TH/519" target="_blank"&gt;519:  "Fountain of Never-Ceasing Grace"&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;  &lt;b&gt;Benediction&lt;/b&gt; &lt;br&gt;  &lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;hr color="#CBC3BD"&gt;   View the  &lt;a href="http://www.graceopcmodesto.org/audioRecording.htm?recording=2308" target="_blank"&gt;web site page&lt;/a&gt; for this sermon (for speaking notes, etc., when available). &lt;br&gt;  &lt;hr color="#CBC3BD"&gt;   &lt;a href="http://www.graceopcmodesto.org"&gt;http://www.graceopmodesto.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;a href="http://s1105.photobucket.com/albums/h348/gopcmodesto/?action=view&amp;amp;current=live.png" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://i1105.photobucket.com/albums/h348/gopcmodesto/th_live.png" border="0"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1054816716682249909-7587838527798392248?l=gopcmodestopm.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="feedflare"&gt;

He who overcomes will not be hurt by the second death.'     &lt;br&gt;  &lt;b&gt;Hymn&lt;/b&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.hymnary.org/hymn/TH/528" target="_blank"&gt;528:  "My Faith Looks Up to Thee"&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;  &lt;b&gt;Benediction&lt;/b&gt; &lt;br&gt;  &lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;hr color="#CBC3BD"&gt;   View the  &lt;a href="http://www.graceopcmodesto.org/audioRecording.htm?recording=2308" target="_blank"&gt;web site page&lt;/a&gt; for this sermon (for speaking notes, etc., when available). &lt;br&gt;  &lt;hr color="#CBC3BD"&gt;   &lt;a href="http://www.graceopcmodesto.org"&gt;http://www.graceopmodesto.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;a href="http://s1105.photobucket.com/albums/h348/gopcmodesto/?action=view&amp;amp;current=live.png" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://i1105.photobucket.com/albums/h348/gopcmodesto/th_live.png" border="0"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1054816716682249909-8065570333762463851?l=gopcmodestopm.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="feedflare"&gt;

1 Sing for joy in the LORD, O you righteous ones; Praise is becoming to the upright.    2 Give thanks to the LORD with the lyre; Sing praises to Him with a harp of ten strings.    3 Sing to Him a new song; Play skillfully with a shout of joy.    4 For the word of the LORD is upright, And all His work is done in faithfulness.    5 He loves righteousness and justice; The earth is full of the lovingkindness of the LORD.    6 By the word of the LORD the heavens were made, And by the breath of His mouth all their host.    7 He gathers the waters of the sea together as a heap; He lays up the deeps in storehouses.    8 Let all the earth fear the LORD; Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him.    9 For He spoke, and it was done; He commanded, and it stood fast.    10 The LORD nullifies the counsel of the nations; He frustrates the plans of the peoples.    11 The counsel of the LORD stands forever, The plans of His heart from generation to generation.    12 Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD, The people whom He has chosen for His own inheritance.     &lt;br /&gt;

3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ,    4 just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and blameless before  Him. In love   5 He predestined us to adoption as sons through Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the kind intention of His will,    6 to the praise of the glory of His grace, which He freely bestowed on us in the Beloved.     &lt;br /&gt;
