Prelude
*The Call to Worship - Psalm 96:7–9
Ascribe to the LORD, O families of the peoples, ascribe to the Lord glory and strength! Ascribe to the LORD the glory due his name; bring an offering, and come into his courts!
*The Invocation
*The Hymn of Adoration No. 48 - O Lord Most High, with All My Heart
*The Corporate Prayer of Confession
Holy and Righteous Father, we humble ourselves before You and confess the weight of our sins. We acknowledge that our transgressions deserved Your holy wrath and eternal judgment. We have broken Your laws, sought our own glory, and strayed like lost sheep. Forgive us, Lord. We have no righteousness of our own to offer and no merit to plead. We look solely to Jesus Christ, who took our cup of judgment and paid our debt in full. Wash us in His precious blood and restore to us the joy of Your salvation. Amen.
*The Words of Assurance - Colossians 2:13–14 & Romans 3:24–25a
Thus says the LORD: ‘And you, who were dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses, by canceling the record of debt that stood against us with its legal demands. This he set aside, nailing it to the cross.’ Believers are justified by his grace as a gift, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, whom God put forward as a propitiation by his blood, to be received by faith.
*The Hymn of Assurance No. 253 - There Is a Fountain Filled with Blood
The Pastoral Prayer

*The Scripture Reading - 2 Samuel 15:1–17
After this Absalom got himself a chariot and horses, and fifty men to run before him. And Absalom used to rise early and stand beside the way of the gate. And when any man had a dispute to come before the king for judgment, Absalom would call to him and say, “From what city are you?” And when he said, “Your servant is of such and such a tribe in Israel,” Absalom would say to him, “See, your claims are good and right, but there is no man designated by the king to hear you.” Then Absalom would say, “Oh that I were judge in the land! Then every man with a dispute or cause might come to me, and I would give him justice.” And whenever a man came near to pay homage to him, he would put out his hand and take hold of him and kiss him. Thus Absalom did to all of Israel who came to the king for judgment. So Absalom stole the hearts of the men of Israel.
And at the end of four years Absalom said to the king, “Please let me go and pay my vow, which I have vowed to the LORD, in Hebron.
For your servant vowed a vow while I lived at Geshur in Aram, saying, ‘If the LORD will indeed bring me back to Jerusalem, then I will offer worship to the LORD.’” The king said to him, “Go in peace.” So he arose and went to Hebron. But Absalom sent secret messengers throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, “As soon as you hear the sound of the trumpet, then say, ‘Absalom is king at Hebron!’” With Absalom went two hundred men from Jerusalem who were invited guests, and they went in their innocence and knew nothing. And while Absalom was offering the sacrifices, he sent for Ahithophel the Gilonite, David's counselor, from his city Giloh. And the conspiracy grew strong, and the people with Absalom kept increasing.
And a messenger came to David, saying, “The hearts of the men of Israel have gone after Absalom.” Then David said to all his servants who were with him at Jerusalem, “Arise, and let us flee, or else there will be no escape for us from Absalom. Go quickly, lest he overtake us quickly and bring down ruin on us and strike the city with the edge of the sword.” And the king's servants said to the king, “Behold, your servants are ready to do whatever my lord the king decides.” So the king went out, and all his household after him. And the king left ten concubines to keep the house. And the king went out, and all the people after him. And they halted at the last house.
