A VERB NOT A NOUN

Psalms 99 LXX (100)

A psalm of thanksgiving.
Shout aloud to the Lord, all the earth;
Serve the Lord with gladness;
Come before Him with great joy.
Know this: the Lord, He is God;
He made us, and not we ourselves;
We are His people and the sheep of His pasture.
Enter into His gates with thanksgiving
And into His courts with hymns;
Give thanks to Him; praise His name;
For the Lord is good; His mercy is everlasting,
And His truth is from generation to generation.

Personal Challenge

Being a follower of Christ is not a label, or a noun, that defines us. To be a follower of Christ, we must become a verb, acting out our relationship with Him. Look at the actions in this passage. Shout. Serve. Come. Know. Enter. Be thankful. Sing hymns. Give thanks. Praise Him. If we are not doing Christlikeness, then we are missing the mark. Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, the sinner!
