"We Expect God To Be There"

Friday, August 6, 2021

President Franklin Roosevelt used to attend a church in Washington. One day, somebody telephoned the church and asked anxiously, "Tell me, do you expect the President to be in church this Sunday?" The rector answered, "That, I cannot promise. But we expect God to be there. That will be incentive enough for a reasonably large attendance." What if you heard that the President of the United States was coming to attend your worship service? You'd be very excited, you'd make sure to get there early and you'd be more eager to invite friends. You would not allow rain or other engagements to stop you. If that's how you'd be if the President decided to attend your next worship service, how much more should you be all those things every week of the year? Because someone far greater than the President is definitely showing up... Yeshua, Jesus, the Messiah, the Light of the World, God, the King of the Universe! Be excited about the things of God.... Be excited about God. Be excited about going to worship service. For far more awesome and exciting than a meeting with a President... is a meeting with God.
