Sing Unto the Lord
by Sis. Jane Kimmes | December 16, 2014
Hello all at GWOD,
I hope this day finds each of you singing unto the Lord and making a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation Jesus Christ. One thing that is certain is that the world is singing and making a noise and sometimes it is even a joyful noise, but the important question to ask is, "Is it unto the Lord?" I can tell you that most often it is not and truly confessing Jesus as Lord is not on the minds or in the hearts of most people and unfortunately this is true of some church goers too. That is why it is so important for us to reach out wherever and whenever as led by the Holy Ghost to let all people know about Jesus and His grace and redemption. There is no other way to heaven. Let's make sure we are being obedient to God in every area of our own lives by the Spirit so as to be living epistles of Christ known and read of all men. So we must sanctify the Lord God in our hearts and be clean and ready at all times to give an answer to every person that asks. Show them the hope of salvation that is in you by pointing them to Jesus. Help them to understand how to be filled with the Holy Ghost and how to worship God with their lives, their voices, their actions, their deeds, their tithes, their offerings, their prayers, and much more, leading them into obedience to His Word just as we ourselves have been taught and led by the Spirit.
So we are singing unto the Lord, making a joyful noise unto the rock of our salvation, and worshiping Jesus daily because He is God. If he were just a prophet as some people like to say, then we would not be worshiping him because he would only be a man. We are to worship God only. Scripture says: "But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom." Heb 1:8. Jesus is God and we worship God with all of our strength and might.
God has spoken to us this week through Psalm 95:1-7a. "O come, let us sing unto the LORD: let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation. Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise unto him with psalms. For the LORD is a great God, and a great King above all gods. In his hand are the deep places of the earth: the strength of the hills is his also. The sea is his, and he made it: and his hands formed the dry land. O come, let us worship and bow down: let us kneel before the LORD our maker. For he is our God; and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand."
What powerful words to meditate on and put into action. Worship Him now in Spirit and in truth and rejoice for He is our Great God. He has everything in His hands. Don't worry, be sad, or complain but rather Burst into a jubilant song unto Him and be thankful for His Word and instructions each day. Love God with all of your heart, soul, mind, and strength. All of these actions please Him and He will respond. Remember to forgive one another (70x7 eternal forgiveness) and ask God to forgive you. Love others as yourselves and look to the needs of the hurting people all around you. Let God use you to bring comfort and peace into their lives, He will take care of you at the same time. I am thankful for all of you and love all of you very much.
Love,
Sis. Jane
