Shout Out


January 9, 2013

                              "O clap your hands, all ye people, shout unto
                               God with the voice of triumph." - Psalm 47:1




Some years ago a local radio personality featured a daily morning programs where listeners could call in and give "shout outs."  An individual could give a "shout out" i.e., a word of encouragement or thanks to a family member, friend, their church family or fellow Christian. Many "shout outs" were lifted to the Lord for His many blessings.  The program was very popular and uplifting.

Recently I was thinking about the power of a shout.  The more I thought about it, my thoughts made their way to my throat, into my mouth and off my lips.  The next thing I knew,
"Thank you Jesus" and "Yes Lord!" were ringing in the room. 

There is power in a shout!  The walls of Jericho came down after a mighty shout!  One songwriter penned:  "Don't wait till the battle is over shout now!"

Whoever you are today and wherever you might be as you read these words I want to give a "shout out" to you!  Continue to trust in the Lord. Be encouraged and know that you are not alone in your efforts.  In Christ, we are one body with many members.  That, is something to shout about!  The "voice of triumph" is understanding that we do have the
victory already through Christ.

                                 "And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and
                                  as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of many thunderings,
                                  saying Alleluia; for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth.
                                              - Revelation 19:6

The thunderings were a shout. Shout out!

God Bless!

THE WHAT AND THE SOEVER

  Philippians 4:8 “Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things  are honest , whatsoever things  are  just, whatsoever things  are  pure, whatsoever things  are  lovely, whatsoever things  are  of good report; if  there be  any virtue, and if  there be  any praise, think on these things.” The truth is Jesus. Honestly. This is a fact. Scripture declares Him to be. The Way, the Truth, the Life. His ways are holy and just. His Word is pure. He is altogether lovely. Focusing on the whatsoever things is to abide in the peace of God. Thoughts centered on bountiful blessings. Determined to dwell on the goodness of God rather than the constant chaos perpetrated by the enemy of our souls. The What is also the Who.  He is the King of Kings. He is the Lord of Lords. Matchless in power and might. He is the Faithful and True. He holds the balance in His Hands. God weighs the intent of the heart. True Hones...

Believing God

  Philippians 1:6 “Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform  it  until the day of Jesus Christ:” Preparing for the next chapter. Cleaning the clutter inside and out.  Reevaluating priorities.  Seeking a revival.  Believing God.  Slowing down a bit.  Focusing on spiritual wellness.  Taking care of my business.  Exercising faith.  Believing God. Stopping to view the sunrise.  Appreciating the sunset.  Planting flowers.  Picking some… Believing God.  Being thankful.  Being kind.  Being… Just being. Believing God.  God bless. In Christ, Sis.
