Today's encouragement comes from Psalm 149:6, which says this:
"Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their hand."It is interesting how the Spirit-filled Christian church member is both a joyful singer of praise to God, and a valiant soldier for Christ. In fact, until or unless we take up Jesus' spiritual arms, we are no adorers of God at all, (despite all vain protests to the contrary).
Worshippers are warriors, fighting under the banner of the Prince of Peace. Our mission is to conquer the entire world for our Redeemer—starting in our own hearts, where Jesus is enthroned. From there, the faithful church is to be revived in Christ. And from there, the fertile ground of the unconverted na-tions are to be brought to The Messiah.
[Puritan quote of the day: "Oh, let us strive to keep God among us! What is the glory of a nation but the presence of God in His Word and ordinances?” —Thomas Watson, in his sermon, "Comfort For the Church"]
