Go Tell It on the Mountain?

Go Tell It on the Mountain?

Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who give you thanks and recount your wondrous deeds. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Being thankful to God for all he does is one thing. Translating that thankfulness into an obedient life is another.

Psalm 75:1 (ESV) is about being thankful and also about sharing about all God has done.

“We give thanks to you, O God;
we give thanks, for your name is near.
We recount your wondrous deeds.”

Are you willing to share about the wondrous deeds God has done in your life? Why? Or, why not?

The song “Go Tell It on the Mountain” was written by John Wesley Work, Jr. The song begins,

“Go, tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go, tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born”

If you are a believer, as you are given the opportunity, share the story of how knowing God changed your life. Do not delay. Go. Tell it.

Who Me? Give Thanks?

Who Me? Give Thanks?

Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who give thanks. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Don Moen wrote the praise song, “Give Thanks.” The refrain is as follows:

“Give thanks with a grateful heart
Give thanks to the Holy One
Give thanks because He’s given
Jesus Christ, His Son”

Psalm 106:1-3 (ESV) begins with a statement of praise.

“Praise the Lord!
Oh give thanks to the Lord, for he is good,
for his steadfast love endures forever!
Who can utter the mighty deeds of the Lord,
or declare all his praise?
Blessed are they who observe justice,
who do righteousness at all times!”

Are you in the mood to praise and/or give thanks to God? If not, take time to reflect on all God has done. Realize if he has been faithful before, he is trustworthy to be faithful today, tomorrow, and always.

What Can Man Do To Me?

What Can Man Do To Me?

Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who when faced with fear respond, “What can man do to me?” In Jesus’ name, amen.

Believers have the potential to be bold. Why are so many so timid?

In Psalm 56:10-13, the psalmist’s fears are under control because of his trust in God. He says that he will render thank offerings:

“In God, whose word I praise,
in the Lord, whose word I praise,
in God I trust; I shall not be afraid.
What can man do to me?

I must perform my vows to you, O God;
I will render thank offerings to you.
For you have delivered my soul from death,
yes, my feet from falling,
that I may walk before God
in the light of life.”

Think about David’s relationship with God. David credits God with delivering his soul from death. Do you see God has having done the same for you in that he provides eternal life for all those who believe? Consider John 3:16. Is it time for you to become more bold in praising God and sharing the Good News with others? Will you let God handle your fears? Trust him.
