Bible Verse of The Day – 4-19-12

(Col 2:8 NKJV)  Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ.

Today we’d like to ask you a question, and we’d like you to consider it before you give an answer. Obviously, we don’t necessarily want you to send your answer to us, but think about this with regard to how it stacks up against God’s word and then answer.

The question is this: When it comes to your walk with God, why do you do what you do?

Think about that for a minute. Why do you do the things you do when it comes to your relationship with God? Why do you worship the way you do? Why do you pray the way you do? Why do you picture God in your mind the way you do? Why do you do the things you do in your relationship with Him?

Is it because that’s what you were taught? Is it because it’s what you’ve seen others do? Do you really even know why you do what you do?

We want to challenge you today. We want you to take a good look at this and ask God to reveal to you why you do what you do.

Is it because God has shown you to do this? Is it because you read it in His word? If not, then why?

This is a very legitimate question that begs an honest and sincere answer from each and every one of us!

Your Daily Bible Verse – 3-7-12

(Psa 33:3 NKJV)  Sing to Him a new song; Play skillfully with a shout of joy.

What’s really cool about God is that he doesn’t put us in a box when it comes to giving Him praise!

We don’t have to be able to play a musical instrument like a pro in order to praise Him. We don’t even have to be able to play a musical instrument at all, in fact.

All we need to do is sing. That’s right, just sing and shout to Him!

How stuck in our ways we have become when we think that we need a modern worship band or a huge number of instruments and singers in order to praise Him. He simply wants to hear us sing and shout His name and our thanks to Him.

Instruments are good. Bands are good. But when we get to the point where we think we need them in order to worship God, we’re missing Him.

Sing a new song to Him today and shout your praises to Him. He loves every minute of it!
