Today we celebrate the matchless worth of our God. Today we honor the Lord of all creation. Today we gather in His presence, sing His praises and exalt our great God and King!
The character of our Savior should move us to respond with worship. His radiance, His glory, His passion and His love should leave us in awe of Him. His sacrifice, His mercy, His power and His righteousness should challenge us to pursue Him with everything. He is our Deliverer, Redeemer, Teacher and Messiah. How will you respond to His character?
Prepare the hearts of your congregation with this worship intro. It is based on Song of Solomon 2:12a, “Flowers appear on the earth; the time of singing has come.”
As we gather together, let us remember the reason we’ve come. To celebrate the matchless worth of our Heavenly Father. To give Him glory, honor and praise and to boldly proclaim that He is King of Kings and Lord of Lords.
Lent is a time of reflection and repentance. A time to confess our sins and ask God to forgive, cleanse and help us. It’s a time to remember just how lost we are without Jesus and to dwell on all He endured to bring us grace.
Lent is a time of prayer, repentance, giving, and self-denial. As Jesus spent 40 days in the desert (Matthew 4:1-11), where He endured temptation by the devil, we follow his example during the season of lent where we deny self, pray, and focus on God.
Our lives should be lived as an offering to God. Every moment of every day should be a sacrifice of praise. God is worthy of our praise, no matter our circumstances, mood or schedule. It’s time we truly lived our lives the way they were meant to be lived…as an offering of worship to God.
This prayer of repentance—appropriate for Ash Wednesday, Lent or any season—acknowledges our guilt in seeking good apart from God and His grace in granting forgiveness in Christ and offering all-sufficient joy in Himself.
