Our Scripture reading today is Psalm 122:1-4.
Verse 1, "I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the LORD."
The psalmist portrays a spirit of gladness due to his worship in the house of the LORD. This reminds me of the saying, "You don't have to go to church, you GET to go to church." David definitely had a get to mentality when it came to many areas of life, but especially going to God's house for worship.
In my humble opinion, this passage comes to us in a VERY timely manner. How many born again Christians have not yet returned into the house of the LORD? For some, there are compromised health issues that have forced them to wait a little longer before returning into the house of the LORD. What about some who are healthy and working and shopping and have not returned to the house of the LORD? What is keeping them from assembling together so much the more as His day IS approaching? It is a daily prayer request of mine that everyone return to the house of the LORD.
Tomorrow is the LORD'S Day! I would like to encourage everyone reading this post to go into HIS house tomorrow. Whether His house is inside a building or under a canopy. God's people NEED to worship with God's people.
