- Call To Worship – UMH 403 – For True Life
- Govern all by thy wisdom, O Lord, so that my soul may always be serving thee as thou dost will, and not as I may choose.
- Do not punish me, I beseech thee, by granting that which I wish or ask, if it offends thy love, which would always live in me.
- Let me die to myself, that I may serve thee; let me live to thee, who in thyself art the true life.
- Amen.
- Reading – [Psalm 125 ESV]
- 1 A Song of Ascents. Those who trust in the LORD are like Mount Zion, which cannot be moved, but abides forever.
- 2 As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the LORD surrounds his people, from this time forth and forevermore.
- 3 For the scepter of wickedness shall not rest on the land allotted to the righteous, lest the righteous stretch out their hands to do wrong.
- 4 Do good, O LORD, to those who are good, and to those who are upright in their hearts!
- 5 But those who turn aside to their crooked ways the LORD will lead away with evildoers! Peace be upon Israel!

- Sermon – "The Do Not’s" – [Proverbs 3:25-35 ESV]
- 25 Do not be afraid of sudden terror or of the ruin of the wicked, when it comes,
- 26 for the LORD will be your confidence and will keep your foot from being caught.
- 27 Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due, when it is in your power to do it.
- 28 Do not say to your neighbor, "Go, and come again, tomorrow I will give it" — when you have it with you.
- 29 Do not plan evil against your neighbor, who dwells trustingly beside you.
- 30 Do not contend with a man for no reason, when he has done you no harm.
- 31 Do not envy a man of violence and do not choose any of his ways,
- 32 for the devious person is an abomination to the LORD, but the upright are in his confidence.
- 33 The LORD’s curse is on the house of the wicked, but he blesses the dwelling of the righteous.
- 34 Toward the scorners he is scornful, but to the humble he gives favor.
- 35 The wise will inherit honor, but fools get disgrace.
