Don't Need A Building To Worship But.....

Let us think of ways to motivate one another to acts of love and good works. And let us not neglect meeting together, as some people do, but encourage one another, especially now that the day of his return is drawing near.”Hebrews 10:24-25 

….will you really worship? A person can say they love Jesus and don’t need to be in a building on Sunday to prove it but oh how these individuals need fellowship. Don’t do life alone friend. 

Perhaps you have been burned by a bad ‘religious’ experience. Maybe the church you were in was only because that was the one you were used to so you are afraid to venture beyond a certain denomination. 

It is essential that Christ, His word, His truths not be put on the back burner of life. Deep down you know you need to find a church to fellowship in. Everyone needs a place they can belong and have friends. Beyond church are the small group Bible studies to nurture you. Find yourself a life giving loving spirit filled church home today. 

PRAYER: Your word is a lamp to my feet and the experience of being with other like minded people keeps me grounded and going in the direction of the cross. Alert me to any obstacles Satan throws at me to keep me from wanting fellowship. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Grab And Go?

If then you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Colossians 3:1

Grab and go typically refers to pre made sandwiches and salads at a grocery store for those in a hurry. Do you ever treat going to church as a grab and go activity?A check the box activity if you will?

You should want to dwell in the presence of God and find a church that you look forward to going to and wish you could go more! Go to church and expect to receive from the Lord. Don’t go counting the minutes till it is over. Perhaps if that sounds like you maybe it is time to switch to a life giving church which may not necessarily be the kind you were raised in or used to.

This Sunday prepare your heart ahead of time to be in His presence by inviting him into your home and other activities during the week. Don’t treat church like a lodge membership. Those with small children at home, don’t you want your children to hunger for the Lord and righteousness more than the things of this world? Then do yourself and them a favor and don’t treat Sunday like family picnic day as that is a habit they will remember more than knowing Jesus.

PRAYER: Lord there have been times I was not thrilled to be in church and other things shoved you out of the way. Then praise God I woke up and hungered for the word. I pray for anyone who needs to have a relationship with Jesus to seek Him with their whole heart. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
