Is Church important??

Today was my daughters first day of school. Oh how they grow so fast. Here is my thought to start out the devotion for today. We all know how important an education is right? We would not think of keeping our kids home from school because for the rest of our lives we need to be able to read and write, do math and all the other things school teaches us. Why then do we feel we can miss church and Sunday school when it is preparing us for eternity? Think on that as you read the scripture for today.


Psalm 63:2

2 So I have looked for You in the sanctuary,
To see Your power and Your glory.

King David it appears found it very important to search for God in the sanctuary. He says he seen God's power and glory! That is so awesome. Have you ever expirienced God's power and glory? You can every week in worship at the house of God. You also can outside of church by living for Jesus in every area of your life. I can not figure out how so many people are fooled by the devil every week by staying at home from worship but yet claiming they have a relationship with God. I have heard all the excuses believe me. They say hypocrites are at church. Yeah that's right and they are everywhere else in life too! You are not there for them you are their to worship God and the church is the hospital for sinners remember that! They also say I can worship God in the woods or on the water or watching football, ect, ect. Yes you can but God set the sabbath asides for rest and worship and one other thing He says in Hebrews 10:25.

Hebrews 10:25 (New King James Version)

25 not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching.

Hmmmmm as is the manner of some! How many are falling into that category? The day approaching is Jesus return. The bible says it will be like a thief in the night. I wonder how many will be caught unprepared??? I hope it won't be you!

It is our job folks to seek Jesus and if we think school is so important and it is....how much more is church and Sunday school???

Witness the power and glory of God yourself and get involved in church today!

Love and peace to all in the name of Jesus....Tom
