On most tombstones, there’s the day of one’s birth and the day of one’s death, and then a dash in the middle.  We don’t control the day we’re born or the day we die.  But we do control what we do with the dash in the middle. So, Pastor Ford will encourage us to use our time now to make that dash count for the Lord.

As we continue to study about praising God, Pastor Ford will ask us—are we giving God what He wants?  Are we dying daily and following Jesus?  Are we following His command to go into all the world and preach the gospel?  According to Pastor Ford, if we’re not doing these things, maybe we don’t have what we want, because we haven’t yet given God what He wants.

As we continue to learn why every praise belongs to our God, Pastor Ford will explain how in the Psalms, King David was trying to get us to see why he was so blessed and that it was because he never put a limit on God.  As David grew, God just very naturally poured out His blessings on him.  So, Pastor Ford will ask us—what’s our capacity for comprehension of Who God is?  Because we only receive from God in correlation with Who we know Him to be.  Find out more on today’s Treasured Truth.

Today, as Pastor Ford continues to teach us that every praise we have belongs to our God, he will point out that often what keeps us from praising God is that fact that we have an incomplete comprehension of God.  And that’s one thing King David expressed in Psalms—he’d experienced a comprehensive view of God and had discovered how incomprehensible and worthy of praise God actually is.  Learn more when you join us for today’s Treasured Truth.

Today, Pastor Ford will encourage us to freely praise God and one way we can do that is to  sing to Him!  Even if we can’t carry a tune in a bucket, or we don’t know a piano key from a car key, we still need to sing!

As we continue our study in Psalm 145, Pastor Ford will describe how our praise of God should be both personal and pre-meditated.  In other words, we should voluntarily praise God for all that He’s done for us personally, and we should be purposeful about giving our praise to Him.

Scripture says that God is able to do exceedingly and abundantly above all that we could ask or even think of Him to do.  And today, Pastor Ford will explain that he acknowledges that truth by saying when he prays, “God, if this prayer of mine is not big enough, then please super-size it!”.  Learn more about taking our limits off of God, on today's Treasured Truth.

As we continue to study about worship, Pastor Ford will help us understand what the focus of our worship should be.  He’ll explain that if we were worshipping you, then we could worship you your way.  But, we’re worshipping God and therefore, we should worship God His way.  His way ought to override our way and our preferences about worship.  Discover more about making God’s way of worship your focus on today’s Treasured Truth.

We don’t worship God because we’re worthy.  We worship God because He’s worthy!  We worship God because every praise belongs to Him.  We cannot really fathom His worth, but if God were small enough to be understood, then He wouldn’t be big enough to be worshipped.  Find out more on today’s Treasured Truth.

Psalm 22 says that God dwells in the midst of the praises of His people.  So, Pastor Ford will explain that the best way for us to experience the manifested presence of God is to lift our hands and to open our mouths to say, “Hallelujah!  Thank you, Jesus!  I praise your name!”  Learn more when you join us for today’s Treasured Truth.
