Genesis 12:1-3 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1 Now the Lord said to Abram, “Go from your country and your kindred and your father's house to the land

that I will show you. 2 And I will make of you a great nation, and I will bless you and make your name great, so

that you will be a blessing. 3 I will bless those who bless you, and him who dishonors you I will curse, and in

you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.”

4 Let the nations be glad and sing for joy,

for you judge the peoples with equity

and guide the nations upon earth. Selah

Verse 1:

How deep the Father's love for us

How vast beyond all measure

That He should give His only Son

To make a wretch His treasure

How great the pain of searing loss

The Father turns His face away

As wounds which mar the Chosen One

Bring many sons to glory

Verse 2:

Behold the Man upon a cross

My sin upon His shoulders

Ashamed I hear my mocking voice

Call out among the scoffers

It was my sin that held Him there

Until it was accomplished

His dying breath has brought me life

I know that it is finished

Verse 3:

I will not boast in anything

No gifts no pow’r no wisdom

But I will boast in Jesus Christ

His death and resurrection

Why should I gain from His reward?

I cannot give an answer

But this I know with all my heart

His wounds have paid my ransom

Verse 1:

Out of my bondage sorrow and night, Jesus I come

Into Thy freedom gladness and light

Jesus I come to Thee Out of my sickness and into Thy health

Out of my want and into Thy wealth

Out of my sin and into thyself Jesus I come to Thee

Jesus I come to Thee

Verse 2: Out of my shameful failure and loss, Jesus I come

Into the glorious gain of Thy cross

Jesus I come to Thee

Out of earth's sorrows into Thy balm Out of life's storms and into Thy calm

Out of distress to jubilant psalm

Jesus I come to Thee

Jesus I come to Thee

Verse 3:

Out of unrest and arrogant pride, Jesus I come Into Thy blessed will to abide

Jesus I come to Thee

Out of myself to dwell in Thy love

Out of despair to glories above Upward for e’re on wings like a dove

Jesus I come to Thee

Jesus I come to Thee

Verse 4:

Out of the fear and dread of the tomb, Jesus I come

Into the joy and light of Thy home

Jesus I come to Thee Out of the depths of ruin untold

Into Your peace, Your sheltering hold

Ever Thy glorious face to behold Jesus I come to Thee

Jesus I come to Thee

Jesus, I Come (Out of My Bondage) William Sleeper | Jason Brown | Mike Rogers ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Verse 1:

Oh how good it is when the family of God

Dwells together in spirit, In faith and unity

Where the bonds of peace of acceptance and love Are the fruit of His presence here among us

Chorus:

So with one voice we'll sing to the Lord And with one heart we'll live out His word

Till the whole earth sees the Redeemer has come

For He dwells in the presence of His people

Verse 2:

Oh how good it is on this journey we share

To rejoice with the happy and weep with those who mourn

For the weak find strength the afflicted find grace

When we offer the blessing of belonging

Verse 3:

Oh how good it is to embrace His command

To prefer one another, forgive as He forgives When we live as one, we all share in the love

Of the Son with the Father and the Spirit

Verse 1: What gift of grace is Jesus my redeemer

There is no more for heaven now to give

He is my joy my righteousness and freedom

My steadfast love My deep and boundless peace

To this I hold, my hope is only Jesus

For my life is wholly bound to his

Oh how strange and divine I can sing all is mine

Yet not I but through Christ in me

Verse 2:

The night is dark but I am not forsaken

For by my side the Savior he will stay

I labor on in weakness and rejoicing For in my need his power is displayed

To this I hold, my Shepherd will defend me

Through the deepest valley he will lead

Oh the night has been won And I shall overcome

Yet not I but through Christ in me

Verse 3: No fate I dread I know I am forgiven

The future sure the price it has been paid

For Jesus bled and suffered for my pardon And he was raised to overthrow the grave

To this I hold, my sin has been defeated

Jesus now and ever is my plea

Oh the chains are released I can sing I am free

Yet not I but through Christ in me

Verse 4:

With every breath I long to follow Jesus

For he has said that he will bring me home

And day by day I know he will renew me

Until I stand with joy before the throne To this I hold, my hope is only Jesus

All the glory evermore to him

When the race is complete Still my lips shall repeat

Yet not I but through Christ in me

Oh How Good It Is Keith and Kristyn Getty

Praying with First Baptist Church A Prayer Guide for the week of July 19

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Prayer of the week:

Consider using the Apostle Paul’s prayer from the book of Colossians 1:11 as a springboard for your own prayer

time this week. If you’re praying through the church directory, this is a great prayer to use as you pray for your

church family this week.

“we have not ceased to pray for you, asking that you may... be strengthened with all power,

according to his glorious might, for all endurance and patience with joy; ”

devotional in the hopes of building the church up and pointing us to God. Starting July 22nd we want to

do something different for the summer. We’re asking you to email the pastors

(elders@firstbaptistum.com) with any question you’d like us to answer. We’ll then pick one of those

questions during the week and do our best to answer it by applying God’s word to the issue raised. That

means we need you to email those questions ASAP so we have time to answer them!
