“Immediately his mouth was opened, and his tongue loosed, and he spoke, praising God.” [1] Marvelous! Miraculous! Amazing! A man opened his mouth, and his tongue brought forth words of praise for God!
My prayer is that all humanity (including me) would be graciously granted the gift of praise-of-God language. And that we would sing heartily unto God in this extraordinary dialect.
Of all my human experiences, praising God in Spirit and truth and in the Name of His Son Jesus Christ, has been one of God's greatest gifts to me.
Was the night Jesus was born silent? What does the Bible say? “’This will be the sign to you: you will find a Babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.’ And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying: ‘Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, goodwill toward men!’” [2] No, there was a host of angels praising and worshiping God.
“Thank You dear Lord Jesus for the gift of worship. You always fill our lives with songs of deliverance. Blessed be Your holy Name.”
[1] Luke 1:64
[2] Luke 2:12-14
21st Century Jeremiah is a publishing site that is managed and operated by Mark Czanderna for the expressed purpose to provide for you free Bible-based and Christ-exalting resources. My goal is to align myself with the prophetic words of God as carefully and accurately as Jeremiah the prophet did in his day, but include the additional revelations that the Lord Jesus Christ provided for us in the Gospels, the Book of Acts, the Epistles of the Apostles and the Book of Revelation.
