Unison Prayer of Confession 17 17 17

（1/2） Lord, You have searched us and known us. You discern our thoughts from far away and are acquainted with all our ways. So You understand how lost we sometimes feel, for evil has surrounded and grown in us. We confess that we have acted in our own interests, without concern for others. 18 18 18

（2/2） We have betrayed those we love, told lies to protect ourselves, and taken things we had no right to own. Loving God, forgive our selfishness and deliver us from evil. Astound us with Your mercy, ground us in Your grace, and lead us in Your way everlasting. 19 19 19

“AMAZING GRACE, HOW SWEET THE SOUND” Ephesians 2:1-10

AMAZING GRACE

GRACE IS A FREE GIFT FROM GOD THAT HE ALONE DISPENSES!

“ALL HAVE SINNED!” ”THE WAGES OF SIN IS DEATH…”

“THE WAGES OF SIN IS DEATH…BUT…THE GIFT OF GOD IS ETERNAL LIFE THROUGH JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD!”

GOD TOOK ACTION… GOD DID FOR US WHAT WE COULD NOT DO FOR OURSELVES. HE REVERSED OUR CONDITION OF SIN! HE SAVED US BECAUSE OF HIS GREAT LOVE FOR US…WITH A PURPOSE… “…IN ORDER THAT IN THE COMING AGES HE MIGHT SHOW THE INCOMPARABLE RICHES OF HIS GRACE, EXPRESSED N HIS KINDNESS TO US IN CHRIST JESUS!” GOD WITHOLDS NOTHING, BUT UNLOADS ON YOU AND ME THE RICHES OF HIS GRACE!”

4 WORDS USED TO DESCRIBE GOD’S SAVING INITIATIVE… GOD’S MERCY GOD’S LOVE GOD’S GRACE GOD’S KINDNESS

BECAUSE OF GOD’S INCREDIBLE LOVE HE OFFERS TO US HIS AMAZING GRACE THAT WE CAN RECEIVE THROUGH FAITH! ”For it is BY GRACE you have been saved, THROUGH FAITH—and this is not of yourselves—it is a GIFT of God—NOT of works, so that no one can boast!”

HE PAID THE PRICE…HIS WORK FINISHED THE TRANSACTION—WE MERELY RECEIVE HIS GIFT BY FAITH. BY GOD’S GRACE…WE BECAME GOD’S PEOPLE-- AND INHERITORS OF HIS RICHES! “FOR WE ARE GOD’S WORKMANSHIP, CREATED IN CHRIST JESUS TO DO GOOD WORKS, WHICH GOD PREPARED IN ADVANCE FOR US TO DO!”

WE ARE CREATED IN CHRIST JESUS FOR GOOD WORKS— WHICH GOD PREPARED BEFOREHAND—THE VERY REASON HE FASHIONED US THAT WE SHOULD CONTINUALLY WALK IN THEM!
