After attending church one Sunday morning, a little boy knelt at his bedside that night and prayed, “Dear God, we had a good time at church today–but I wish you had been there!”
Did you know that God doesn’t attend every church service? The reason being: He is not invited in. That was the case in the church in Laodicea.
Revelation 3:20
Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and he with me.
We need to keep the things of the world out of our services and bring God in. This has been the situation ever since the Garden of Eden.
Genesis 3:8
And they heard the sound of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God among the trees of the garden.
Make sure when you attend church, God is there.
Think about it.
