Grounded

GO  

There is no better thermometer of your Spiritual walk than where you spend your Sunday.

Psalm 65:4 Blessed is the man whom thou choosest, and causest to approach unto thee, that he may dwell in thy courts: we shall be satisfied with the goodness of thy house, even of thy holy temple.

            You may have heard, “Show me a Bible that is falling apart and I’ll show you a man that isn’t.” I whole heartedly agree with that little saying! To go even a little deeper, “Show me a family that attends church together and I’ll show you a family that has been grounded in God’s Word and serving the Lord.” What a blessing and privilege to go to church this morning!

            Hey friend; GET UP, GET READY, and GO TO A BIBLE BELIEVING, PREACHING, AND TEACHING CHURCH this morning! There is a pew waiting for you! It will be the best decision you make this week!

GROWING IS DONE BY GOING

One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to enquire in his temple. Psalm 27:4

I have never understood how someone, who says they are a Christian, can avoid going to church. It’s a very important place where preaching is done and God put a high value on preaching, “…it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.” 1 Corinthians 1:21 It’s a very important place where the Holy Spirit works, “…he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.” John 16:13 It’s the place you will become the Christian God wants you to be, “As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby:” 1 Peter 2:2

Do yourself a favor this morning; GET UP, GET READY, and GO TO CHURCH!

GET UP, GET READY, and GO TO CHURCH!

Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love. Revelation 2:4

Many believe they don’t have to go to church in order to be a Christian. While this is true let me just share a few thoughts on that:

1. Does a husband HAVE to live in the same house with their wife?

2. Does a wife HAVE to spend time with their husband?

3. Does a husband HAVE to study his wife in order to get to know her likes and dislikes?

4. Does a wife HAVE to prepare meals for her husband or VISE VERSE?

5. Does a husband or wife HAVE to honor their spouse?

Just a few thoughts all with the same answer, “No!” However, if you love your spouse you will live with them. You will spend time with them. You will study them. You will help them around the house. You will honor them. And much, much more!

Such it is if we are a Christian…We will love the times we get to go to church. We love getting to spend time with His children people worshipping and praising Him. We love getting to study His Word learning more about Him and ourselves. We love getting to help in God’s House, where we meet corporately with one another. We love to get to partake of the Lord’s Supper with one another. We love and honor our Saviour by coming to church!

Child of God, what has happened in your life that has distracted you from the love of God you once had? What has caused you to leave your first love? Well, this morning set that aside for a little while and GET UP, GET READY, and GO TO CHURCH!
