Whisper not
the name of God
Speak it boldly
for He is all
Hide not
your inner Light
for it is exactly
what they need
Tame not
your worship of the King
for your audience
is Him alone
Hide not
your story of saving grace
for it is precious
and important
Stand confidently
worshipper and witness
in the strength and power and goodness
of your great God
– Susie Stewart
I have seen You in Your sanctuary
and gazed upon Your power and glory.
Your unfailing love is better than life itself;
how I praise You!
I will praise You as long as I live,
lifting up my hands to You in prayer.
You satisfy me more than the richest feast.
I will praise You with songs of joy.
I lie awake thinking of You,
meditating on You through the night.
Because You are my helper,
I sing for joy in the shadow of Your wings.
I cling to You;
Your strong right hand holds me securely.
– Psalm 63:2-8 (NLT)
It’s news I’m most proud to proclaim, this extraordinary Message of God’s powerful plan to rescue everyone who trusts Him, starting with Jews and then right on to everyone else! God’s way of putting people right shows up in the acts of faith, confirming what Scripture has said all along: “The person in right standing before God by trusting Him really lives.”
– Romans 1:16-17 (MSG)
Paul lived for two years in his rented house. He welcomed everyone who came to visit. He urgently presented all matters of the kingdom of God. He explained everything about Jesus Christ. His door was always open.
– Acts 28:30, 31 (MSG)
