The Bible says that God inhabits the praises of His people. It also says that wherever there are two or more gathered in His name He is in the midst. I believe He was in the midst today. 

Actually, I know that He was present in that place, because I didn’t think about what I was going to eat for dinner not one time. Don’t judge me. My mind tends to wander during church service every now and then. But I digress…

My pastor is teaching through the Commandments of God. And today, he taught from Exodus 20:14: “Thou Shall not commit adultery.” 

Committing adultery is an obvious sin, right? But how about those innocent looks that lasts way too long, the touches that linger a little longer than they should, married people confiding their relationship problems to single people, and vice versa, watching movies that promote a sinful lifestyle…it all matters.

What I love most about Sundays like this is how God allowed my pastor to teach the hard stuff. He spoke exactly what God moved him to speak. Not that he doesn’t always do that, because he does. But this time it just seemed to hit different. Even though he used humor to convey his message, we all got the point. 

God will definitely do a work on His people when we get out of the way.

Today was about making sure that the people of God knew the truth. We can no longer pretend that we don’t know, or that it really doesn’t matter, because God forgives. Although that is true, it doesn’t give us license to keep on living a sinful life.

The world is not waiting for us to get it together. People are dying and we have to be sure to capture as many moments for God as possible. What I mean by that is…we can’t let an opportunity to minister pass us by. We need to share His word with our family, with our friends, and with the world, because all of our lives depend on it.

Until next time…

Be blessed
