9. THE FATHER’S DAY CALL TO WORSHIP
[ Pastor / CONGREGATION]
Blessed is the man
WHO DOES NOT GIVE IN
to the influences of evil,
WHO DOES NOT FOLLOW
after the methods
OF THOSE WHO OFFEND GOD,
who does not associate
WITH THOSE WHO RIDICULE OTHERS.

10. Blessed is the man who chooses
TO FOLLOW AFTER GOD
for he will find peace
IN FULFILLING
that which God expects.
ON GOD’S ORDINANCES,
the man of God always meditates.
THE MAN WHO FOLLOWS
the ways of the Lord
IS LIKE A TREE PLANTED
by the streams of living water.

11. THIS TREE BRINGS FORTH
an abundance of fruit in its season,
A TREE WHOSE LEAF
does not wither and fall away.
THE WAYS OF THE MAN WHO SEEKS
after the Lord will flourish.
THIS IS NOT THE WAY IT IS FOR MEN
who continually sin against God.
SUCH MEN ARE LIKE THE CHAFF
which the wind blows away.

12. UNGODLY MEN WILL NOT FIND FAVOR
in God’s judgment,
NOR WILL SUCH MEN JOIN
in the assembly of the righteous.
THE WAYS OF MEN WHO ARE HATEFUL
will certainly perish,
BUT THE LORD WILL BLESS THE WAYS
of God-honoring men
THROUGHOUT ALL ETERNITY.

GOD OF OUR FATHERS
[ All who are able please stand ]

14. (1)
God of our fathers,
Whose almighty hand
Leads forth in beauty
all the starry band.
Of shining worlds
in splendor through the skies
Our grateful songs
before Thy throne arise.

15. (2)
Thy love divine
Hath led us in the past.;
In this free land
By Thee our lot is cast;
Be Thou our Ruler,
Guardian, Guide and Stay,
Thy Word our law,
Thy paths our chosen way.

16. (3)
From war’s alarms,
From deadly pestilence.
Be Thy strong arm,
Our ever sure defense;
Thy true religion
In our hearts increase,
Thy bounteous goodness
Nourish us in peace.

17. (4)
Refresh Thy people
on their toilsome way;
Lead us from night
To never-ending day;
Fill all our lives
With love and grace divine,
And glory, laud
and praise be ever Thine.

‘FIND US FAITHFUL’
(Praising God for the forgiveness of our sins)
O may all who come behind us find us faithful;
May the fire of our devotion light their way.
May the footprints that we leave,
lead them to believe,
And the lives we live inspire them to obey.
O may all who come behind us find us faithful.

THE HEBREW SCRIPTURE
DEUTERONOMY 6:1-9
Read by Elder Roy Palk, J.D.
Now this is the commandment--the statutes and the ordinances--that the LORD your God charged me to teach you to observe in the land
that you are about to cross into and occupy, so that you and your children and your children's children may fear the LORD your God all the days of your life. Keep all his decrees and his commandments that I am commanding you, so that your days may be long.

25. Hear therefore, O Israel, and observe them diligently, so that it may go well with you, and so that you may multiply greatly in a land flowing with milk and honey, as the LORD, the God of your ancestors, has promised you. Hear, O Israel: The LORD is our God, the LORD alone. You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your might. Keep these words that I am commanding you today in your heart. Recite them to your children and talk about them when you are at home when you are away, when you lie down and when you rise.

26. Bind them as a sign on your hand, fix them as an emblem on your forehead, and write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates.

Please see sermon outline

29. DEUTERONOMY 6:4-7
You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. These commandments I give you today are to be upon your hearts. IMPRESS THEM ON YOUR CHILDREN. Talk about these commandments when you sit at home, when you walk along the road, when you lie down, and when you get up.

30. The most important thing we can teach our children and grandchildren is to put God first in their lives, and THAT begins with an example from parents and grand-parents.

31. From Psalm
Hide not the truths of God from your children; Tell the next generation about your expectations and about presence of the Lord, His power, and the wonders He has done.
THERE IS NO MOLDING WITHOUT MODELING.

32. ‘PASSING THE BATON’

33. The Pastoral Prayer and The Lord’s Prayer
OUR FATHER, WHO ART IN HEAVEN,
HALLOWED BE THY NAME.
THY KINGDOM COME, THY WILL BE DONE,
ON EARTH AS IT IS IN HEAVEN.
GIVE US THIS DAY OUR DAILY BREAD,
AND FORGIVE US OUR DEBTS AS WE FORGIVE OUR DEBTORS;
AND LEAD US NOT INTO TEMPTATION
BUT DELIVER US FROM EVIL.
FOR THINE IS THE KINGDOM,
AND THE POWER, AND THE GLORY FOREVER
AMEN.

Whene’er we hear that glorious word!

Both friend and foe in all our strife:
And preach Thee, too, as love knows how,
