Passion for the House of the Lord

King David loved the house of the Lord. He had an absolute passion for  God’s house, and for worship. In Psalms 27:4, David declared: One thing I have desired of the Lord, That will I seek: That I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, To behold the beauty of the Lord, And to inquire in His temple. Paul also encouraged believers everywhere not to forsake the assembling of ourselves (Hebrews 10:25). Church attendance is much more than just showing up. God speaks in the corporate setting. One gets ongoing mentorship, and we all get the opportunity to also minister to others. Today, King David reminds you, never be too busy that you forsake the fellowship of the saints. This is God’s design.

Psalms 23:6 (b) And I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

 

Choose to rejoice and be glad today!

King David said in Psalms 118:24 – “This is the day the Lord has made; We will rejoice and be glad in it”. David knew that it was God that made (created; formed) the day of salvation, deliverance and restoration because of His love, goodness and mercy that He has for us. He is the perfect, loving heavenly Father, and David revealed this understanding as he daily worshipped God. David truly understood the unfairness and difficulty that we all experience in this life, but his relationship with God helped him through every major challenge and hurdle that he ever experienced. This same love, goodness and mercy is yours today!

Psalms 23: 6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life
