Praise with understanding
John10:7-21, Ps.47:7,
Christmas carol song has filled the air in the past one month. To some it is has meaning, while it does not have meaning to some. A praise worship song goes like thisÉ ÒLet the weak say I am strong, let the poor say I am rich, because of what the Lord has doneÓ. If you have been singing that song with no understanding, you are yet to gain an edge over your weaknesses and lack. As a believer, it is important to sing your praises with understanding. Ps.47:7 For God is the King of all the earth: Sing praises with understanding. That song says Òbecause of what the Lord has doneÓ He sent His beloved Son to come and give us life. Jesus Himself confirms in Jh10:10 ÒThe thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they have it more abundantly. It is more of religion to the singers of Christmas carol song when the understanding of His coming is meaningless. The purpose of His coming is to give us hope and when there is hope, there is life. Today, ask God to open your understanding to the Christmas gift of Christ.
