Amos 5:24 - "But let judgment run down as waters, and righteousness as a mighty stream."  The book of Amos is a warning of God's coming judgment on a people that claim to be God's people but disregard His direction in worship.  In the previous verses God states the their worship is despised because there is no righteousness.  As we go to worship this weekend, remember God want us to live righteously and exercise godly judgment of right and wrong so our worship will be acceptable to Him. True worship is really on the inside, but manifested by our actions. - Matt Stephens

John 10:27 - "My sheep hear my voice, and I know them . . ." Think on that. Jesus knows you. The real you, all that you are. And, he loves you. It doesn't get better than that. - Daniel Holser

Psalm 92:13-14 - "Those that be planted in the house of the Lord shall flourish in the courts of our God. They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be fat and flourishing;". This is my hope and prayer and hopefully that of every Christian, flourishing and bearing fruit for Christ right into old age. This is not done by accident though. Like brother John Mark preached, we must be in our Bibles and know what we believe to be able to pass it on. - Brian Boots

Galatians 5:1 -“Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.” God saved us not only from our sins but OUT of sin. We must remember that we are not bound by sin like those unsaved, which should help us to make the right choices and to want to save others so they may be free. - Josh Gross

Nehemiah 8:3b - "And the ears of all the people were attentive unto the book of the law."  I heard a preacher say recently, that it is so important for us to prepare ourselves for hearing the Word of God preached by confessing sin and finding quiet time to focus before going to church.  So often times we rush into church like it is another gym, restaurant, or grocery store and then wonder why we get nothing out of it.  This year go to church with a purpose of receiving a blessing because you have prepared your heart. - Jason Brothers

John 7:17 - "If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine." God will show us His will for our life if we not only seek it but more importantly have a willing heart to do what He has for us. - Wes Smith

Psalm 84:11 - "For the Lord God is a sun and shield: the Lord will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly." What an incentive this is to just live and love a holy life. We like to blame God sometimes for the way things go in our lives, but imagine how much has been withheld because we weren't walking uprightly. This just proves that God is waiting  for us to do right so He can bless us. - Steve Boots
