Rejoice Always, The Goodness of God, Walking in His Grace, Embrace Worship, How Do I Truly Worship God?, Unveiling 6 Decades of Ministry, and "You've Already Won"
In This Issue... Philippians 4:4, Quotes from Toby Shockey, Articles From ChurchLeaders Staff, Billy Graham, and Barry St. Clair, Plus Song from Shane & Shane
Welcome to this issue of one24worship - Because worship is a daily lifestyle, one 24-hour day at a time, not just a weekly event.
The one24worship Newsletter is a weekly offering of inspiration, ideas, and insights... 1-2-4: one verse, two quotes, and four observations at a time.
It seems providential to quote Philippians 4:4 as our One Verse this week, since today is April 4th… 4/4/24.
Today, may we rejoice in the unmerited favor of the goodness and grace of God!
Enjoy!
David
One Verse
“Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice.” Philippians 4:4 ESV
Two Quotes
Toby Shockey
“Knowing that we are completely undeserving and unworthy only magnifies the goodness of God towards His people. Our whole lives, our very existence, then, are for the praise of His glory.” Toby Shockey
“If we’re trying somehow to pay God back or if we’re trying to leverage His favor with our good behavior, we aren’t walking in His grace.” Toby Shockey
Excerpt: “Praise is an integral aspect of worship and a vital expression of our relationship with God. Throughout the Bible, praise is depicted as a powerful and transformative act, one that not only honors God but also realigns our hearts and minds with His divine presence.” 👉 Read More…
Excerpt: “Praising the Lord has become a cliché in many respects but it isn’t something we’re called to do just on Sunday morning. It’s a way of life—praising God no matter what we do or where we are. It’s relatively easy to sing for an hour in church, but it’s another matter to live day in and day out praising the Lord with our obedience.” 👉 Read More…
Excerpt: “When the Lord gave me the idea of creating three new websites, it seemed impossible. It turned out to be quite the adventure! Two years ago, building a website was ‘outer space’ to me. Now what seemed impossible, and felt impossible along the way, has finally become reality! Only the Lord’s hand and an excellent team could have accomplished it. […] ALL of our training and resources...including 35 English books, many in 16 languages, plus multiple videos and audios are available to anyone—FREE.”
“I'm fighting a battle / That You've already won / No matter what comes my way / I will overcome / I don't know what You're doing / But I know what You've done / I'm fighting a battle / You've already won.”
“It’s easier for us to raise our hands in praise than it is for us to bow our heart before the Lord in humility and worship at His feet.” Brother Butch Ikels
