MARLBORO
SEVENTH DAY BAPTIST CHURCH
SABBATH – January 19, 2008
MEDITATION - COST OF FOLLOWING GOD
It cost Abraham the willingness to yield his only son. It cost Esther the risk of her life. It cost Daniel being cast into the den of lions. It cost Shadrachm, Meshach, and Abednego being put in a fiery furnace. It cost Peter a martyr's death. It cost Jesus His life.
Does it cost you anything?
WELCOME & ANNOUNCEMENTS
The Lord is near to all who call upon him; to all who call upon him in truth. He fulfills the desire of all who fear him; he also hears their cry, and saves them. We are glad to have you join us as we call upon the Lord.
CALL TO WORSHIP & PRAISE
Penitence Unison Reading:
O Lord, open thou my lips, and my mouth shall show forth thy praise. For thou hast no delight in sacrifice, were I to give a burnt offering, thou wouldst not be pleased. The sacrifice acceptable to God is a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart, o God, thou wilt not despise.
