+ In the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Amen
Opening prayer:
O God,
who by the glorious resurrection of your Son Jesus Christ
destroyed death and brought life and immortality to light:
Grant that we, who have been raised with him,
may abide in his presence
and rejoice in the hope of eternal glory;
through Jesus Christ our Lord,
to whom, with you and the Holy Spirit,
be honor and glory, now and for ever. Amen.
“Let the peace that comes from Christ
rule in your hearts.”

Psalms: Psalm 118 | Salvation (Psalm 118) | Teshuva Music
It feels so hopeless treading through the mud
Crying to heaven to, lift me up
You heard me and You set me free
Look into the eye of my enemy
Out of bondage where I can’t be touched
Without fear Within Your love
Rushing in they have surrounded us
thorns on fire hot and gone like dust
All the nations they’re closing in
pushed me hard, I was falling
God stepped in and He picked me up
In the name of the Lord I will cut them off
Oh let Israel say His love is forever
Let the house of Aaron say, let all those who fear God say (x2)
My strength my song come from my God
And He has become My Yeshua salvation
Joyful shouts from the the tents of the righteous
His strong right hand will be lifted up
I will not die but live to tell of all He’s done
The stone that the builders rejected has become
chief cornerstone, my cornerstone
This is the day that God has made
We will rejoice and be glad in it
Blessed is the One who comes
Blessed is the One who comes in the name of the Lord
We bless You from the house of Lord
Bind the festival sacrifice with cords to the horns of the altar
God has given His light, He has given us life

A Song of Deliverance
15:1 Then Moses and the people of Israel sang this song to the Lord:
“I will sing to the Lord,
for he has triumphed gloriously;
he has hurled both horse and rider
into the sea.
+ The Lord is my strength and my song;
he has given me victory.
This is my God, and I will praise him—
my father’s God, and I will exalt him!
+ The Lord is a warrior;
Yahweh is his name!
+ Pharaoh’s chariots and army
he has hurled into the sea.
The finest of Pharaoh’s officers
are drowned in the Red Sea.
+ The deep waters gushed over them;
they sank to the bottom like a stone.
15:6 “Your right hand, O Lord,
is glorious in power.
Your right hand, O Lord,
smashes the enemy.
+ In the greatness of your majesty,
you overthrow those who rise against you.
You unleash your blazing fury;
it consumes them like straw.
+ At the blast of your breath,
the waters piled up!
The surging waters stood straight like a wall;
in the heart of the sea the deep waters became hard.
15:9 “The enemy boasted, ‘I will chase them
and catch up with them.
I will plunder them
and consume them.
I will flash my sword;
my powerful hand will destroy them.’
+ But you blew with your breath,
and the sea covered them.
They sank like lead
in the mighty waters.
15:11 “Who is like you among the gods, O Lord—
glorious in holiness,
awesome in splendor,
performing great wonders?
+ You raised your right hand,
and the earth swallowed our enemies.
15:13 “With your unfailing love you lead
the people you have redeemed.
In your might, you guide them
to your sacred home.
+ The peoples hear and tremble;
anguish grips those who live in Philistia.
+ The leaders of Edom are terrified;
the nobles of Moab tremble.
All who live in Canaan melt away;
+ terror and dread fall upon them.
The power of your arm
makes them lifeless as stone
until your people pass by, O Lord,
until the people you purchased pass by.
+ You will bring them in and plant them on your own mountain—
the place, O Lord, reserved for your own dwelling,
the sanctuary, O Lord, that your hands have established.
+ The Lord will reign forever and ever!”

NT Reading: Colossians 3:12-17 (NLT)
3:12 Since God chose you to be the holy people he loves, you must clothe yourselves with tenderhearted mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. Make allowance for each other’s faults, and forgive anyone who offends you. Remember, the Lord forgave you, so you must forgive others. Above all, clothe yourselves with love, which binds us all together in perfect harmony. And let the peace that comes from Christ rule in your hearts. For as members of one body you are called to live in peace. And always be thankful.
3:16 Let the message about Christ, in all its richness, fill your lives. Teach and counsel each other with all the wisdom he gives. Sing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs to God with thankful hearts. And whatever you do or say, do it as a representative of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through him to God the Father.

Let The Peace of Christ Rule Colossians 3:15 | DrayWave
My heart is a battleground of fear and strife
The anxious rhythm of this worried life
Pulled in a thousand different ways
Through all my restless nights and frantic days
[Chorus]
So let the peace of Christ rule in my heart
Tear the anxiety and fear apart
Let the peace of Christ be the final say
And wash my troubles all away
[Verse 2]
I build my walls, I stand alone
On a fragile kingdom, on a broken throne
Forgetting that I’m not the only one
A part of the Body of the Son
[Chorus]
So let the peace of Christ rule in my heart
Tear the anxiety and fear apart
Let the peace of Christ be the final say
And wash my troubles all away
[Bridge]
As members of one body, we were called to peace
So let all our striving and division cease
With a thankful heart, we lift our voice
In our unity, we can rejoice
[Oh] We can rejoice
[Outro]
And be thankful…
Let the peace of Christ rule…
And be thankful.

Almighty God, from whom all thoughts of truth and peace proceed: Kindle, we pray, in the hearts of all people the true love of peace, and guide with your pure and peaceable wisdom those who take counsel for the nations of the earth; that in tranquility your kingdom may go forward, till the earth is filled with the knowledge of your love; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
O God, our heavenly Father, you manifested your love by sending your only-begotten Son into the world, that all might live through him: Pour out your Spirit on your Church, that we may fulfill his command to preach the Gospel to all people. Send forth laborers into your harvest; defend them in all dangers and temptations; and hasten the time when the fullness of the Gentiles shall be gathered in, and faithful Israel shall be saved; through your Son Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
Our God, in whom we trust: Strengthen us not to regard overmuch who is for us or who is against us, but to see to it that we be with you in everything we do. Amen. | Thomas à Kempis
