Psalm 148 More Than A Good Religious Phrase


Psalm 148:1
Praise the LORD.

Nice words……..
Good religious phrase…….
Great Sunday morning banter……..

Use this phrase in some situations and you’re in……..
Use it in others……..
And well……..
Prepare for some funny looks.

Be careful guys.
It’s very easy to play the religious game……..
It’s very easy to become the religious chameleon…..
It’s very easy to slip in and out of a religious persona…….

It’s very easy……..
And……….
It’s very dangerous.

Praise The LORD.
More than nice words.
More than a religious phrase.
More than Sunday morning banter.

Praise The LORD.
Can we?
I mean really…….
Can we get past our efforts to simply fit in?
Can we get past just trying to say what we are supposed to say?
Can our faith be more?

Guys,
Jesus has called us out of death……
Jesus has invited us into Life…..
Christ Himself… lives in us…..
To live through us.

Guys,
Get hold of that.
Experience that.
Live in that…..
And Yes…..

Praise The LORD!

Father, Lord Jesus, Holy Spirit
Lead us deeper and deeper into Your Life today
So that we may truly live lives of Praise to You today.

Amen
