How to please God with singing…

But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth...John 4:23-24.

 

What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also: I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also...1 Corinthians 14:15.

 

Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord; Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ...Ephesians 5:19-20.

 

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him...Colossians 3:16-17.

 

How can you please God…walk in spirit and truth and then worship Him with a song singing with understanding. Does your devotions of studying for knowledge include singing to God afterward or before? Singing is way to draw near to God for He is seeking those who worship Him! Jesus told the woman at the well any day or hour is a good hour to worship the Father, we no longer have to wait until the Sabbath day as long as we are keeping ourselves Holy or walking in the spirit and the truth. So sing a song to God and please Him!

 

Prayer

Father please cleanse us and grant us repentance so we can worship you in Spirit and the Truth, please meet our soul’s deepest needs and prosper us who worship You…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

Confession is good for the soul…

Confession is good for the soul…

And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God...John 3:19-21.

Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever...1 John 2:15-17.

But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness...1 John 1:7-9.


Have you renounced satan, and this world…yes or no? Have you confessed your darkest sins to Jesus and asked what must you do to repent and be right with Him…yes or no? Jesus said the truth will set us free…we have to confess our sins or else we will not be bringing our darkness to the light for cleansing…may God grant us repentance and confession of sin!


Prayer

Father we renounce satan and the second beast which is in the world…please grant us repentance so we can be right with You…meet our soul’s deepest needs and heal us so we can walk with You in the truth…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

Will no religious people be forgiven or just the religious…

Will no religious people be forgiven or just the religious…

He also told this parable to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and treated others with contempt: “Two men went up into the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. The Pharisee, standing by himself, prayed thus: ‘God, I thank you that I am not like other men, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even like this tax collector. I fast twice a week; I give tithes of all that I get.’ But the tax collector, standing far off, would not even lift up his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, ‘God, be merciful to me, a sinner!’ I tell you, this man went down to his house justified, rather than the other. For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but the one who humbles himself will be exalted.”...Luke 18:9-14.

 

In this parable…Jesus says the one who confessed his sin and that he was a sinner was justified or just-as-if -I’d never sinned. Yet the religious Pharisees gave God his resume of being religious and never confessed his sin. The tax collector knew he was a sinful man in need of mercy but the religious Pharisee thought he had no sin and was telling God how grateful he was that he was not a sinner. Oh may we realize where we stand with God as sinful men and women.

 

Jesus died on a cross to take away our sinful pasts and give us future with Him. Jesus said unless one is born of the water and the Spirit a person cannot enter into the kingdom of God. Jesus said unless one believes He died and was raised from the dead and is baptized will be saved. IN this parable we read the value of confession of sin. Have you beat your chest and asked God to forgive you a sinner…yes or no? Have you been baptized to obey Jesus…yes or no?

 

Prayer

Father please forgive us of our sins we are just sinners without you justifying us…please show us mercy and grant us repentance where we need to grow closer to you…please meet our soul;s deepest needs so we can be reconciled to You and Your only Son Jesus who died on the cross and was raised from the dead to cleanse us…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.
