Call to Worship
Have someone read aloud:
Psalm 112:1, 6-7 (NKJV)
Praise the LORD! Blessed is the man who fears the LORD, who delights greatly in His commandments.
Surely he will never be shaken; the righteous will be in everlasting remembrance. He will not be afraid of evil tidings; his heart is steadfast, trusting in the LORD.
Prayer
Almighty God, the great I AM, to You alone we give our highest worship and faithful obedience. You deserve nothing less than these from us, Your children, and even from all of Your creation. You alone are worthy to be exalted forevermore. Praise be Your beautiful and holy Name. We love You. In Jesus' Name, Amen.

Scripture Reading
Read aloud (together if applicable).
R-30 FAITH 信心
Hebrews 11:1-3, 6, 8, 10, 13; 12:1-2 (NKJV)
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. For by it the elders obtained a good testimony.
By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible.
But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.
By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out to the place which he would receive as an inheritance. And he went out, not knowing where he was going.
for he waited for the city which has foundations, whose builder and maker is God.
These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off were assured of them, embraced them and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.
Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
Song of Response
Worship Through Prayer
Father, I often feel the pressure to conform to others in my life even if it goes against my will and convictions. Please give me the courage and strength to stand firm on what is right and good in Your sight. Help me never to compromise my faith in You.
Lord, teach me to trust and obey You unconditionally. You are trustworthy. Your Word is true and perfect. When Your commands come in conflict with my worldview and opinions, give me faith to follow You wholeheartedly. You know all things, I do not. Hence, I'll put my trust fully in You. Please, help me.
Empower me to obey You fully in accordance to Your Word. Help me walk in obedience like the faithful men and women in the Bible. Just as how they have known and experienced You as they lived by faith, I pray that I may also know and experience more of You each passing day as I learn to live intimately with You by faith. Thank You. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
