‘The Lord is
the true God; He is the living God, the eternal King’ (Jeremiah 10:10).
Can there ever be anything more important than worshipping You, Lord? We
know the answer as soon as we ask the question! Very often, our lives
gives a very different answer. We have taken our eyes off You, Lord. We
have forgotten that You are the true and living God. We sing the words,
‘O Lord, Thou art my God and King… Each day I rise, I will Thee bless…’ –
but they have a hollow ring about them! Help us, Lord, to make a real
commitment of our life to You: ‘Teach me to live, day by day, in Your
presence, Lord… Teach me to praise, day by day, in Your Spirit, Lord…
Teach me to love, day by day, in Your power, Lord… Teach me to give, day
by day, from my wealth, O Lord…’ (Mission Praise, 627).
By Your grace, Lord, You call us to be Your soldiers and servants. Help us not to be "fearful and fainthearted" (Deuteronomy 19:19). Help us to be "good soldiers of Jesus Christ" (2 Timothy 2:3). When we hear your challenging question: "Who is on the Lord's side?", may we give our committed answer: "By Thy call of mercy, by Thy grace divine, we are on the Lord's side; Saviour, we are Thine."
