DEVOTION:  Psalm 96:1-9  English Standard Version (ESV)
 
"Worship in the Splendor of Holiness"

96 Oh sing to the Lord a new song;
    sing to the Lord, all the earth!
² Sing to the Lord, bless his name;
    tell of his salvation from day to day.
³ Declare his glory among the nations,
    his marvelous works among all the peoples!
⁴ For great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised;
    he is to be feared above all gods.
⁵ For all the gods of the peoples are worthless idols,
    but the Lord made the heavens.
⁶ Splendor and majesty are before him;
    strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.

⁷ Ascribe to the Lord, O families of the peoples,
    ascribe to the Lord glory and strength!
⁸ Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his name;
    bring an offering, and come into his courts!
⁹ Worship the Lord in the splendor of holiness;^[a]
    tremble before him, all the earth!

 

I always like a new song, especially if it is a really good one.  I love listening to the radio and hearing that new catchy tune or that new singer sing.  It is refreshing and if the song is especially good it sticks with you and you remember it the rest of the day.  It can change your mood and make you feel good.  It can cause you to think of good things and even make a bad circumstance easier to take. 

 

Could that be what David is trying to get at in our Psalm for today?  Does he want is to sing a new song to refresh our hearts and minds?  Does he want us to make a difference in the lives of others by sharing the GOOD NEWS of the Lord's salvation?  Does he want us to give credit where credit is due, and cause others to draw near to the Lord so that He can lift them up out of the doldrums of their lives or give them peace in the middle of their trouble and anxiety?  

 

YES!  We are God's witnesses!  We are His messengers of grace to the world!  When the world is in need of peace, we are just the right ones to give it to them.  When someone is in need of forgiveness, we have been given the power an the authority to give it to him or her.  When a person is wrought with anxiety and worry over their circumstances, we can provide that peace that passes all understanding!

 

As we wake up and get going on this Monday morning, David is encouraging us to be light in this dark world, to be the hope to the hopeless, the love to the loveless, the forgiveness the unforgiven, and the life to those who are dead in their trespasses and sins!

 

Be that life, that hope, that forgiveness, and that peace today!

 

Prayer: Lord, make us sing a new song to you so that you may renew our strength and that strength may overflow to those around us.  Amen.

PASTOR KLAUSTERMEIER IS BIKING 1,000 MILES THIS SUMMER FOR LEADACHILD!!!

We have been blessed beyond measure in the United States haven't we?  I want you to join me in making a global difference by releasing children from poverty through Christian education.

 

Instead of taking a week off and joining my fellow Lead a Child bikers who are riding the Fault Line across four states this year,  I have decided to go solo and bike 1,000 miles locally and while on vacation by August 1 to raise funds for LeadaChild. Would you sponsor me so that I can raise funds to support this most worthy organization?  In my opinion, there is no more worthy organization to support than LeadaChild!

 

LeadaChild  provides educational assistance to over 26,000 children and shares the love of Jesus Christ with the students and their families! LeadaChild supports the poorest of the poor children through Christian education in the following countries:

Guatemala                    Chad                       Honduras               Palestine               Haiti             Uganda

Gambia                          Ivory Coast            El Salvador            Nigeria                   Panama       Nicaragua

Burma                            Ghana                     Chile                       Venezuela             Bolivia         Mexico

Liberia                            Uruguay                Sri Lanka                India                       Guinea        Sierra Leone   

Bangladesh                   Cambodia              South Africa         Togo                       Thailand

 These students need your help to find a way out of poverty through Christian education and learn of the hope of Christ our Savior.

 

Please fill out your information below and send it with your check or donate online through the LeadaChild website: http://www.leadachild.org/bike

 

Every dollar makes a difference. Please give generously.  Please remember all of the riders in your prayers!  Thank you much for your support!

 

Biking For Kids Together,

Pastor Jeremy Klaustermeier

 

LeadaChild  is a 501 C-3 non-profit organization and is a Recognized Service Organization of the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod.
