On the Lord's day, which is Sunday, we tend to gravitate toward our various churches and take our place in our seats and procede to carry out the ritual of worship. For many of us this is the extent of our walk with the Lord, "church on Sunday morning." Sunday worship has been developed into a fine art over the centuries and acts of Sunday worship have become such accepted traditions that anyone not attending some form of worship on Sunday are considered to be lost and "unsaved."
For the millions of people not attending this Sunday at a regular Sunday worship service, this message is for you.
This is the day (Sunday) that the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad in it. I love church, I love going to church, I love working in the ministry service of church, I love fellowshiping, corporate prayer, and corporate praise of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Sunday is truly a day of worship, a special day when we can set aside a specific period of time to give thanks and praise to the Lord and honor Him.
To me, there is something special about Sunday. On Sunday, I find myself anxious to hear the Word of God. I feel differently about Sundays than any other day of the week. It is obvious to me that the Lord intended Sunday to be special and for us to be aware of Sunday as a special day.
If you're not in church today, going to church today, or have no desire to relate to Sunday as anything but just another day of the week, this message is for you.
The good news is, you don't have to be inside the four walls of a physical structure called a "church" to be a child of the Most High God. You don't have to be sitting in a pew to acknowledge your faith and belief in The Lord God Almighty. Your don't have to know the words to a hymnal, Bible verses, the catechism, or even be able to verbatim recite the Lord's prayer to give honor and glory to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
You can praise and honor Him right where you are. Yes, even as you read this message, sitting in front of your computer screen, you can praise the Lord.
You see, the Lord has said that He has place the knowledge of Himself in the hearts of all of us. That means, He knows each and every one of us. The question is, do you know Him. You don't have to go anywhere to find the Lord, just accept Him as you Lord and Savior right here, right now, right where you are.
Our Lord is omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent, which means He is all powerful, that He has all knowledge, and that He is ever present in all places.
He is here with you right now. You have to acknowledge Him and invite Him into your life and your space. you can do that right now, right where you are.
If you want to present yourself to the Lord right now, let me help you by leading you to the Word of God given to the Apostle Paul so that there may be righteousness for everyone who believes.
Romans 10:8, ..."The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart," that is, the word of faith we are proclaiming:
Romans 10:9, That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
Romans 10:10, For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved.
Romans 10:11, As the Scripture says, "Everyone who trusts in Him will never be put to shame."
Romans 10:12, For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile--the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on Him,
Romans 10:13, for, "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved."
So if you want salvation, it is available to you right where you are.
By the way, after you receive salvation from the Lord, you might want to share the testimony with the rest of us.
So join us at the church of your choice one Sunday. We'll be glad to have you.
Be blessed.
