Truth – Pastor Dave

We began our “ER” series yesterday. From my vantage point God was in the house in an incredible way. You might say, “That’s a big statement! How do you justify that?” Well, what causes the Lord’s presence to be among us?
The Bible says, “God inhabits the praises of His people.” So our worship attracted Jesus to the service. When Jesus is attracted to a place where people gather there will be change in our lives. Wherever Jesus went He brought change. I know of a couple of people that were healed. I saw some come back to the Lord and say, “I really need to get reconnected with Jesus.” The presence of God will change us. The truth is that we can be anywhere and worship God. We worship with our lifestyle, our conversation, and in the gatherings of believers to glorify the Lord.
Secondly, when you present the WORD of God, Jesus is attracted to that moment. John 17:7 says, “Thy word is truth.” John 14:6 Jesus said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life.” So when we present TRUTH Jesus is there. Now, we presented TRUTH in a different way than just preaching a sermon. But Jesus presented TRUTH through various illustrations. For example, and you can read about this in the gospels. He presented TRUTH in Mark 11, when He cursed the fig tree. Again, in Matthew 18:2-3, Jesus called a child into their midst and said, “except you be converted and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the Kingdom of Heaven.
Our presentation yesterday in its simplicity was filled with worship and Truth. And those two elements will attract the presence of the Lord and bring change in peoples lives. I know I was touched and changed yesterday. I challenge you to create a time in your life where worship and Truth (WORD) will change you.
