Worship Preparation - July 17, 2022

Read the sermon text: Deuteronomy 18:15-22
Read the sermon summary: This week we will look more closely at God’s promise in Deuteronomy 18 to raise up a prophet like Moses from among the people of Israel. What are God’s intentions in raising up this prophet? And what does it mean that this prophet will be “like Moses”? We will consider how this promise is a reflection of the deep mercy of God in revealing himself to us in creation, in his Word, and ultimately in his Son, Jesus Christ. As we see at the end of Deuteronomy (34:9-12), no prophet like Moses had yet arisen from among the Israelites, and thus we are pointed to the continued anticipation of God’s people throughout the remainder of the Old Testament for the one in whom this promise finds its ultimate fulfillment (cf. Acts 3).
Read the following song lyrics in relation to the sermon:
In Christ Alone
In Christ alone my hope is found
He is my light my strength my song
This Cornerstone this solid Ground
Firm through the fiercest drought and storm
What heights of love what depths of peace
When fears are stilled when strivings cease
My Comforter my All in All
Here in the love of Christ I stand
In Christ alone who took on flesh
Fullness of God in helpless babe
This gift of love and righteousness
Scorned by the ones He came to save
Till on that cross as Jesus died
The wrath of God was satisfied
For every sin on Him was laid
Here in the death of Christ I live
There in the ground His body lay
Light of the world by darkness slain
Then bursting forth in glorious Day
Up from the grave He rose again
And as He stands in victory
Sin's curse has lost its grip on me
For I am His and He is mine
Bought with the precious blood of Christ
No guilt in life no fear in death
This is the power of Christ in me
From life's first cry to final breath
Jesus commands my destiny
No power of hell no scheme of man
Can ever pluck me from His hand
Till He returns or calls me home
Here in the power of Christ I'll stand
