Praise Break

He's More than a Sunday God

God is a good God, yes he is!!!

My God is so great and greatly to be praised. He is so mighty, that one writer penned the perfect phrase, "If I had ten thousand tongues, I couldn't praise him enough!" That is so true when you really think about it and count your blessings. For what he's done, we should be in constant praise. But forget about what the blessings in our lives, we ought to worship him just for who he is.

My mind has been wrapped around submitting my life to the Lord. And the scripture that has been in my spirit the last few days is 2 Timothy 3:5.

2 Timothy 3:5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.

When thinking about this, it is understood the meaning behind it. It is understood that there are those in church who do not have the Lord and servitude in their heart. It would be awesome if every soul in the House of God was there for the business of the father. But the reality is, there are some who have other motives. And Paul was warning Timothy in this chapter to be aware of those who appear to look the part of a Christian. Meaning those who appear to be like you, who appear to have a serving spirit like you. But Paul names these spirits/attitudes/mindsets by name, and warned Timothy.

Taking it a step further, there are those in church who may be legit in their intentions. They may seriously come to give God the glory. That is great, but is it enough to just come to church. Many individuals nowadays feel as if going to church is enough. Coming to the house of the Lord, getting a nice dance in, and fellowshipping with the brethren on Sunday. This is what people have become satisfied with. But there is so much more to it than that. The scripture mentions POWER, there is something behind that. Power is not obtained by just attendance. Attendance is the first step, but there are so many who come and leave Powerless. Church has become an emotional experience, but the level of Power is very minimal. During the times of the Apostles, that is where Power was Power. When there is true Power, the miracles and blessings of God are manifest. So many want the blessings and miracles of God, but fail to reach them because there is no Power in their lives. Power is obtained by relationship, humility, service and love. We all love God, but it is only apparent on Sunday. Now understand, the purpose of this particular entry is not to boost church attendance throughout the week. The purpose is to create more dialoque with God and ultimately generate more power in individual lives. When right relationship is brought to the table, then Power is evident. No longer will looking the part be an option, but actually being a powerful man or woman of God.

I hope we all embrace the power of God! God is supreme and he deserves adoration and praise and constant fellowship from his children. Your ask yourself, am I denying the power of God by simply waiting for Sunday to pray, praise and live for God. Today is the day that the Lord has made, and let us Rejoice and be glad. Obtain your power through relationship.

God Bless
