Since we are talking about worshiping God in Spirit and Truth in this month’s manna I thought it would be fun to learn how to say “worshiper of God” in Hebrew. Enjoy.
Shalom Ladies, Our topic is Praising God with Dance. However, this message is about much more than just dance. We are going to look at prophetic acts, declaration, and intercession. Please join us at 9:30 at The Bridge Christian Church in Rotterdam NY.
“Because Your lovingkindness is better than life, my lips shall praise You.” (Psalm 63:3) The Hebrew word used here for praise is not your typical word for praise, this one is shabach שָׁבַח (Strong’s #7623). While shabach means: to commend, praise, adore, or to glory in something, interestingly, it also means to still, quiet or pacify someone. Therefore shabach can be seen in two ways: praising or calming. Praising God has the power to soothe a screaming soul. HalleluYah!! We praise You Lord Jesus and find rest in Your amazing love. Amen and Amen.
In America, we are living in a day where there is a church on every corner. Leaders have provided a smorgasbord for seekers to choose from in order to connect with their Creator and grow in a meaningful relationship with Jesus. Sadly though, Goldilocks is still not satisfied. She can’t fine the church that is “just right.” In John 4:23-24, Jesus had a conversation with a Samaritan woman at a well. She asked Jesus “where” to worship, however, Jesus replied with “how” to worship. Unfortunately the “how” is often determined by the “where” but it doesn’t have to be so, beloved. Click here to read this month’s manna, “The Heart of Worship.” We hope it is a blessing to you.
Here is a model prayer for the National Day of prayer taught by our Master and paraphrased by the Message Bible at Luke 11. “Father, reveal who You are. Set the world right. Keep us alive with three square meals. Keep us forgiven with You and forgiving others. Keep us safe from ourselves and the Devil. “ Amen and Amen
“Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing?” (Matthew 6:25) There is an interesting little word in this precious passage that is often cut out when quoted. The word is “therefore” and it is there to connect this passage to the one just prior to it. Therefore (no pun intended), let’s back up then and see what is written.
“Out of the mouth of babes and nursing infants You have perfected praise…” (Matthew 21:16b) I found great delight in this familiar passage today and just had to share God’s goodness with you all. Our key text today comes from Jesus as He defended the children of Israel from the religious leaders, the Scribes and Pharisees. The crowd was joyously shouting, “Hosanna to the Son of David,” as Jesus made is final entry into Jerusalem on His way to the cross. The enemy was not happy…but God was.
