The Supreme Climb From My Utmost for His Highest Updated
Edition
He said, "Take now your son…" Genesis 22:2
God’s command is, “Take now,” not later. It is incredible how we
debate! We know something is right, but we try to find excuses for
not doing it immediately. If we are to climb to the height God
reveals, it can never be done later— it must be done now. And the
sacrifice must be worked through our will before we actually
perform it.
“So Abraham rose early in the morning…and went to the place of
which God had told him” (Genesis 22:3). Oh, the wonderful
simplicity of Abraham! When God spoke, he did not “confer with
flesh and blood” (Galatians 1:16). Beware when you want to “confer
with flesh and blood” or even your own thoughts, insights, or
understandings— anything that is not based on your personal
relationship with God. These are all things that compete with and
hinder obedience to God.
Abraham did not choose what the sacrifice would be. Always guard
against self-chosen service for God. Self-sacrifice may be a
disease that impairs your service. If God has made your cup sweet,
drink it with grace; or even if He has made it bitter, drink it in
communion with Him. If the providential will of God means a hard
and difficult time for you, go through it. But never decide the
place of your own martyrdom, as if to say, “I will only go to
there, but no farther.” God chose the test for Abraham, and Abraham
neither delayed nor protested, but steadily obeyed. If you are not
living in touch with God, it is easy to blame Him or pass judgment
on Him. You must go through the trial before you have any right to
pronounce a verdict, because by going through the trial you learn
to know God better. God is working in us to reach His highest goals
until His purpose and our purpose become one.

The Baptismal Covenant I
Ella Kay Moyer
Roseglen United Methodist Church
November 17, 2019
INTRODUCTION
Brothers and sisters in Christ:
Through the Sacrament of Baptism we are initiated into Christ’s
holy
church.
We are incorporated into God’s mighty acts of salvation and
given new
birth through water and the spirit.
All this is God’s gift, offered to us without price.
PRESENTATION
I Present Ella Kay Moyer for baptism.
RENUNCIATION OF SIN AND PROFESSION OF FAITH
(Parents read words in bold)
On behalf of the whole Church, I ask you:Do you renounce the
spiritual forces of wickedness, reject the evil
powers of this world, and repent of your sin?
I do.
Do you accept the freedom and power God gives you to resist
evil,
injustice, and oppression in whatever forms they present
themselves?
I do.
Do you confess Jesus Christ as your Savior, put your whole trust
in His
grace, and promise to serve Him as your Lord, in union with
the
Church which Christ has opened to people of all ages, nations,
and
races?
I do.
Will you nurture Ella in Christ's holy Church, that by your
teaching
and example she may be guided to accept God's grace for herself,
to
profess her faith openly, and to lead a Christian life?
I will.
(Congregation reads words inbold)
Do you, as Christ's body, the Church, reaffirm both your
rejection of sin and your commitment to
Christ?
We do.
4
Will you nurture one another in the Christian faith and lifeand
include Ella Kay, now before you in your care?
With God's help we will proclaim the good news and live
according
to the example of Christ.We will surround Ella Kay with a
community of love and
forgiveness, that she may grow in her trust of God, and be
found faithful in her service to others.We will pray for her,
that she may be a true disciple who walks in
the way that leads her to life.
THANKSGIVING OVER THE WATER
The Lord be with you.And also with you.
Let us pray.
Eternal Father:When nothing existed but chaos, you swept across
the dark waters and
brought forth light.In the days of Noah you saved those on the
ark through water.After the flood you set in the clouds a
rainbow.When you saw your people as slaves in Egypt, you led them
to freedom
through the sea.Their children you brought through the Jordan to
the land which you
promised.
(all)
Sing to the Lord, all the earth. Tell of God's mercy each
day. (all)
In the fullness of time you sent Jesus, nurtured in the water of
a womb.He was baptized by John and anointed by your Spirit.He
called his disciples to share in the baptism of His death and
resurrection and to make disciples of all nations.
(all)
Declare Christ’s works to the nations, his glory among all
the
people.
Pour out your Holy Spirit, to bless this gift of water and those
who
receive it, to wash away their sin and clothe them in
righteousness throughout their lives, that, dying
and being raised with Christ, they
may share in his final victory.
(all)
All praise to you, Eternal Father, through your Son Jesus
Christ, who with you and the Holy Spirit lives and
reigns forever.
Amen.

BAPTISM WITH LAYING ON OF HANDS
Ella Kay Moyer, I baptize you in the name of the
Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy
Spirit.
Amen. (all)
The Holy Spirit work within you, that being born through water
and the
Spirit, you may be a faithful disciple of Jesus
Christ.
Amen. (all)
Now it is our joy to welcome our new sister in Christ.
Through baptism you are incorporated by the Holy Spirit
into God's new creation and made to share in
Christ's royal
priesthood.We are all one in Christ Jesus.With joy and
thanksgiving we welcome you as a member of the
family of Christ.
“GOD CLAIMS YOU”
(REFRAIN, 2x)

God helps you, protects you,
and loves you, too.

a child of God you’ll always be.
(REFRAIN, 1x)

They vow to help your faith to grow.
(REFRAIN, 1x)

our prayers will help you on your way.
(REFRAIN, 1x)

may angels sing this lullaby.
