Day Three: A Reason to Worship

Grace and Peace be multiplied unto you, through the knowledge of God and of Jesus our LORD. Today is day three. You are doing great. Congratulations! This morning, Pastor Kwania Ragler is our guest blogger. I pray that this blog encourages you, the way it did me. Thank you Pastor Kwania for this submission.

Grace and peace be unto you from God, our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ. Well, we’ve made it to another year. Thank God for all that are still here. This means we still have work to do. All my condolences to all who have lost love ones in 2020 through the pandemic or otherwise.
2020 was a difficult year, but God always has a plan.

Worship is one of the most powerful items in our arsenal. Our quiver is full of the many things the Lord has done for us that can silence the enemy through worship. I want to encourage you this morning to keep praising and worshiping the Lord no matter what you go through. Psalm 22:3 says, “God inhabits the praises of his people.” God enjoys our worship, and we feel His love through worship. The loving sacrifice he made to draw us to Himself can be compared to nothing else, and this is the greatest reason to worship Him.     

In my devotion, I read this statement, “Jesus never felt the pleasure of sin, only the pain of it.”
The realization of this statement is so profound. Yes, we learn at an early age that Jesus died for our sins. And, we say Jesus knew no sin. But yes, He did. He knew yours, and He knew mine. He knew the pain of it, the ugliness of it, and the guilt of it. He knew it so intimately that the Holy Father had to turn away from Him because He became sin for you and me. He took it all upon himself, took it to hell, and left it there, so we don’t have to go there. This is a reason for worship. As you are fasting and making your supplications, don’t forget to think about all the things to give God praise and worship for as well, and then worship like there is no tomorrow.   

Remember to take one day at a time. Tomorrow will take care of itself. Drink plenty of water.

God bless and keep you.
