Hello Church,
The Psalmist in Psalm 145 said, "Great is the Lord and greatly to be praised..." The word "praised" meaning to be celebrated, boast, commend, renowned and shine. This is what we're suppose to do every time we come together and by ourselves. We are to celebrate, boast and let His name be shined to those who are around us.
God has placed a "calls" on each one of us. I believe one of the calls is that of prayer. If men and women of faith would begin to pray, then the Church would be transformed. People would start to live godly and they would be changing society. We would be like those, who in the Book of Acts it says that they turned the world upside down. There are too many times when people come to the House of God seeking answers to what's happening in their lives, what's happening in our nation, what's happening to humanity, only to leave no better off then when they came in because all they found was a casual, social, self-seeking gospel that offers nothing from God, and no word for troubled times.
We are to be the light, we are to be the salt, we are to be the voice leading the way. Let's show a dying society what God's mercy and grace is all about. It's not too late. You and I can fail God a thousand times, and yet God is still there, still calling, still willing to restore.
When the prodigal son came home after disgracing his father's name, he knew he wasn't worthy, BUT it was at that point that he started to understand the grace of God. The son was given a new robe, a ring and new shoes, and now he could represent his father, because he wasn't filled with religion anymore, BUT now was full of mercy and walking in the grace of God.
That's what you and I are to show when we are out our city, out in our community. God needs your voice and your life to show the world His incredible lave and salvation through Jesus.
