PREPARING FOR WORSHIP ON THE LORD'S DAY

 Alexander Mc Claren wrote: “Fruitful and acceptable worship begins before it begins”. How are you preparing to worship God before you go to church this coming Sunday to hear the Word of God proclaimed? That begins by worshipping Him every day (Monday through Saturday) in the sanctuary of your heart. “I will bless the Lord at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth. My soul shall make her boast in the Lord: the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad. O magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt his name together” (Psalm 34:1-3). If praising God is continually in our hearts there is no room for complaints, and the joy of the Lord will be our strength (Nehemiah 8:10). Keep pressing on, Pastor Tom.
