GOD’S INVITE TO CHORISTERS

Text:- Isa 1:18-19:- “Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool. 19 If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land”

Dear Friends,

What an honour it is that the author of the universe will invite you and I for a chat. In our text for the day God Almighty is inviting you and I to a round table discussion. As Christians  as Celestial Church of Christ member and as choristers in particular it is easy to be engrossed in Church activities to the neglect of a personal relationship with God. In the hymn above God through the composal is calling us to himself for our benefits.

            As choristers we all know the pranks that are common among choristers, Are you fulfilling your potentials or are you just making up the number. Do you allow the Holy Spirit of God to inspire you in your service. Why are we not churning out new composition? What motivate you? Jesus said in John 15 vs 5 that without him we can do nothing. How much of Jesus Christ do you allow in your life? He says in

Rev 3:20 “Behold, I stand at the door , and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.” Enough of the nuances, let return to our maker in true worship, let us as choristers lead the congregation in divinely inspired worship. God want to give us new messages through songs for this generation. He is the only one that can give us rest from our labours as he has said in Matt 11:28 “Come unto me , all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” My mission is to reawaken our consciousness in the service of God. Join me here regularly as we look for ways to better enhance our fellowship with the Holy Spirit. Remember it is the devil that displaces God places. Allow God to place you on the path of glory. For you to eat of the fruit of the land, you must be willing and obedience. Are you willing?  Let me have your thought.
