If you turn away
your foot from the Sabbath, from doing your pleasure on My holy day, and call
the Sabbath a delight, the holy day of the Lord honorable, and shall honor Him,
not doing your own ways, nor finding your own pleasure, nor speaking your own
words, Then you shall delight yourself in the Lord, and I will cause you to
ride on the high hills of the earth, and feed you with the heritage of Jacob
your father. The mouth of the Lord has spoken. Isaiah 58:13-14
It’s Saturday and
Sundays coming, will you attend worship at some church tomorrow? There are many
today who find comfort in staying home on Sunday to catch up on things that need
to be done around the house, take part in some outdoor activity, or simply
digest before Monday’s workday.
Whoever you are and
whatever you do, the truth is YOU are God’s creation. God loves you and wants
to have a personal relationship with you. According to today’s scripture, by
setting aside your personal agenda and making time to worship God on Sunday,
you provide yourself many many blessings that don’t even come close to the
advantage of taking the day off from church attendance.
But, let me just
say, it’s not about simply attending church. It’s about truly worshipping God,
giving Him praise and thanks for the many blessings He’s bestowed on your life.
The most important blessing is the payment of your sins, made by Jesus Christ
(God’s Son), so you can have true fellowship with the God of this Universe,
your true creator.
You might have a
number of reasons to stay home on Sunday, but just remember you’ll miss out on
communing with fellow believers, learning more about your creator, and
receiving spiritual nourishment to get you through the week ahead. Why not
dedicate this Sunday to the Lord.
