Individual Call: Psalm 139:23-24
23 Search me, O God, and know my heart!
Try me and know my thoughts!
24 And see if there be any grievous way in me,
 and lead me in the way everlasting!

Corporate Call:
Lord, when we gaze upon the cross we are confronted with the depth of our depravity; we feel the weight of our wickedness and see the severity of our sin. Lord, we are undone before your holiness, we are unworthy of your grace, and your mercy contains a beauty we do not deserve. We confess that we are a people who have sinned against you; our thoughts run wild and our actions testify against us as we bow before the evil impulses of our hearts. Oh lord, our whole being has rebelled against your righteousness; mind, body, and soul deserve condemnation. And for this reason we run to your infinite mercy, seeking your forgiveness through the blood of Jesus Christ. So Lord now we pray that you hear our cry.

Response: Father, forgive us.

IV. ASSURANCE OF PARDON
Arise and hear the good news!
Church, your prayers have not failed, for your confession has ascended to the right hand of the Father, where the Great High Priest has now interceded on your behalf.

Church, lift your hearts and believe in the promises of God. For in Christ you stand secure, eternally loved and fully redeemed by the power of the gospel.  For the great king, Jesus the Christ bore your sin in his own body and crucified it upon the cross and buried it in the grave. And if this is true, who can bring any charge against God’s elect? Who can point a finger at the bride of Christ and call her condemned? By the power of the Holy Spirit, God has raised you to a new life where no power in heaven or on earth or under the earth can separate you from the love of the Triune God.

So Church, lift up your hearts and hear these words, by the great and powerful name of Jesus I declare to you that your sins are forgiven!

Response: Thanks be to God!
