Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.
Having risen from sleep we worship You, O Good One, and we sing with the angels and the living creatures (the seraphim and the cherubim), a hymn to You: “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord, the all-powerful God, who was and is and is coming!” (Revelation 4:8)
The Jesus Prayer
O Lord Jesus (Yeshua) Christ (the Messiah), Son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner.
Lord, Have Mercy (Kyrie Eleison)
Lord, have mercy, Christ (the Messiah) have mercy, Lord have mercy. (Luke 18:13)
I am nothing without you. I can’t do anything apart from you. I have no goodness of my own. I need you. I want you. I am desperate for you every moment of every day. Whatever I face today, whether poverty or plenty, in any situation: I can do all things through Christ (the Messiah) who strengthens me. (Philippians 4:13)
You created my innermost being. You knit me together in my mother’s womb. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be. (Psalm 139:13;16) You care for me. I am precious to You, made in Your image with honor. (Matthew 6:26; Psalms 8:4-5) You love me. (Romans 5:8; 1 John 4:9-10)

Hear (Shema)
Listen and obey, Israel! The Lord is our God, The Lord alone! So love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, and strength. These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts. Tell them to your children over and over again. Talk about them all the time, whether you’re at home or walking along the road or going to bed at night, or getting up in the morning. Write down copies and tie them to your wrists and foreheads to help you obey them. Write these laws on the door frames of your homes and on your town gates… I command you to love others as much as you love yourself. I am the Lord. (Deut. 6:4-9; Lev. 19:18; Luke 10:27 CEV)
The Lord’s Prayer – Expanded
Let Him sit on the throne of David in Jerusalem; From the temple filled with His radiance; His law going forth, what He wants being done; As it always has been in the Heaven of heavens
Sacrificial Gift (Korbanot)
Master of the Worlds, You commanded Israel to bring the daily offering at its appointed time; and have the priests perform their service, and the Levites to sing and play music on the platform. And now, because of Your covenant discipline, the Holy Temple is destroyed, and the daily offering discontinued; we have neither a priest at his service, nor a Levite on his platform, nor an Israelite at his station.
Think of my prayer as sweet-smelling incense, and think of my lifted hands as an evening (or morning) sacrifice. (Psalm 141:2 CEV)
Restore the service to the inner sanctuary of your Temple, and receive in love and with favor both the fire-offerings of Israel and their prayers.
Please be willing, Lord, to help the city of Zion and to rebuild its walls. Then you will be pleased with the proper sacrifices, and we will offer bulls on your altar once again. (Psalm 51:18-19)
The Great Thanksgiving (Eucharist)
All glory be unto You, Almighty God, our Father in heaven, for You, of Your tender mercy, did give your only Son Jesus (Yeshua) the Messiah to suffer death on the cross for our redemption; who made there by His one oblation of himself once offered, a full, perfect, and sufficient sacrifice, oblation, and satisfaction, for the sins of the whole world; and did institute, and in his holy Gospel command us to continue, a perpetual memory of his precious death and sacrifice, until His coming again. Amen.
Confession of Sin & Absolution
Let us bow and humbly confess our sins to Almighty God:
Most merciful God,
we confess that we have sinned against you
in thought, word, and deed,
by what we have done, and by what we have left undone.
We have not loved you with our whole heart;
we have not loved our neighbors as ourselves.
We are truly sorry and we humbly repent.
For the sake of your Son Jesus (Yeshua) the Messiah,
have mercy on us and forgive us;
that we may delight in your will, and walk in your ways,
to the glory of your Name. Amen.
Take a moment to confess individual sins that come to mind.
Almighty God, our heavenly Father, who in his great mercy has promised forgiveness of sins to all those who sincerely repent and with true faith turn to him, have mercy upon us, pardon and deliver us from all your sins, confirm and strengthen us in all goodness, and bring us to everlasting life; through Jesus (Yeshua) the Messiah our Lord. Amen.
We hear the words of our Lord, “Your sins are forgiven. Go: and sin no more.”
Blessing over the Wine (raise the cup and recite)
We bless You, O Lord our God, King of the universe, Who creates the fruit of the vine. As we drink let us be filled with the knowledge of your sacrifice that our deeds may imitate the One who offers forgiveness through His blood; Who has given us the Way to deliverance from the wrath to come in Jesus (Yeshua) the Messiah. Amen.
Blessing over the Bread (raise the bread or cracker and break)
We bless You, O Lord our God, King of the universe, Who brings forth bread from the earth. We give you thanks, our Father, for the life and knowledge which You made known to us through Your Son Jesus (Yeshua). Yours is the glory forever and ever. As this broken bread was scattered upon the mountains (as seed) and gathered together as one bundle of wheat, so may Your assembly be gathered together from the ends of the earth into Your kingdom. For Yours is the glory and the power through Jesus (Yeshua) the Messiah forever and ever. Amen. (Didache)
Song of the Bible
The LORD’s Kindness Never Fails
Just thinking of my troubles and my lonely wandering makes me miserable.
That’s all I ever think about, and I am depressed.
Then I remember something that fills me with hope.
The Lord’s kindness never fails! If he had not been merciful, we would have been destroyed.
The Lord can always be trusted to show mercy each morning.
Deep in my heart I say, “The Lord is all I need; I can depend on him!”
The Lord is kind to everyone who trusts and obeys him. It is good to wait patiently for the Lord to save us.
When we are young, it is good to struggle hard and to sit silently alone, if this is what the Lord intends.
Being rubbed in the dirt can teach us a lesson; we can also learn from insults and hard knocks.
The Lord won’t always reject us! He causes a lot of suffering, but he also has pity because of his great love. The Lord doesn’t enjoy sending grief or pain. (Lamentations 3:19-33 CEV)

Scripture Prayer – Consecration
I pray that your love will keep on growing and you will fully know and understand how to make the right choices. Then you will still be pure and innocent when Christ (the Messiah) returns.

Prayer for Protection
O Lord, Lover of men, and by Your loving-kindness I strive to do Your work today, and I ask You: help us at all times, in everything, and deliver us from every evil grief and distress of heart, and every attack of the devil, surround us by Your holy angels, that we may be guarded and guided, and lead me into Your eternal Kingdom. For You are my Creator, the Giver and Provider of everything good, and all my hope is in You, and to You I send up glory, now and forever, and to the ages of ages. Amen.
Come, Creator Spirit (Veni Creator Spiritus)
Come, Holy Spirit, Creator come, from your bright heavenly throne! Come, take possession of our souls, and make them all your own.

Through you may we the Father know, through you the eternal Son and you the Spirit of them both, three times blessed, three in One.
Benediction

Baptism Questions (Remembering your baptism: you may want to dip your hand or fingers in a bowl of water and recite these again)
Do you renounce Satan and all the spiritual forces of wickedness that rebel against God?
I renounce them
Do you renounce the evil powers of this world which corrupt and destroy the creatures of God?
I renounce them
Do renounce all sinful desires that draw you from the love of God, and that are deserving of the coming wrath of God?
I renounce them
Do you put your whole trust in the mercy and forgiveness of God shown to you through the sacrifice of the Messiah?
I do
Do you promise to be loyal to Him no matter what may come, whether persecution or death?
I do
Do you promise to follow and obey Him as your Lord, the coming King of Israel, who will reward and resurrect your body on that Day to live on the restored earth?
I do
We thank you, Almighty God, for the gift of water. Over it the Holy Spirit moved in the beginning of creation. Through it you led the children of Israel out of their bondage in Egypt into the land of promise. In it Your Son Jesus (Yeshua) received the baptism of John and was anointed by the Holy Spirit as the Messiah, to lead us, through his death and resurrection, from the bondage of sin into everlasting life.
We thank you, Father, for the water of baptism. In it we are buried with the Messiah in His death. By it we will share in His bodily resurrection, and will be reborn by the Holy Spirit. We receive now a deposit of the powers of that coming age. Therefore in joyful obedience to Your Son, we bring into His fellowship those who come to HIm in faith, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.
Now set apart this water, we pray, by the power of the Holy Spirit, that those who are cleansed from sin may continue forever unto the risen life of Jesus (Yeshua) the Messiah our Savior. Amen.
Song of the Bible
2 Timothy Hymn
If we died with Christ (the Messiah), we will live with him. If we don’t give up, we will rule with him. If we deny that we know him, he will deny that he knows us. If we are not faithful, he will still be faithful. Christ (the Messiah) cannot deny who he is. (2 Timothy 2:11-13 CEV)

Entrance of our Lord into Jerusalem
Giving us before Your passion an assurance of the general resurrection, You raised Lazarus from the dead, O Messiah our God. Therefore, like the children, we will also carry symbols of victory and cry out to You, the conqueror of death:
Hosanna in the highest, blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!
Messiah our God, we have been buried with You through baptism. Therefore, we have become worthy of immortal life through Your resurrection. We cry out to You a hymn of praise:
Hosanna in the highest, blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!
And to Israel you said, “Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you, how often I have longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, and you were not willing. Look, your house is left to you desolate. For I tell you, you will not see me again until you say:
Hosanna in the highest, blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!
