“Quiet Time Needs to Be Over” – Part 5
It was noised that Jesus was in the house. Somebody got the word out … Jesus is in the house. Somebody told somebody else … Jesus is in the house. Of all the methods and strategies of evangelism; the best is still “make some noise”.
The church must not be silent.
Believers… let’s make some noise. “Quiet Time”, in the church needs to be over!
There are five basic sounds (noises) that need to be in the church. First… prayer. Jesus said it, “My house shall be called a house of prayer.”
The second “sound” that must be heard in the church is the “sound” of preaching. Jesus did not say go into all the world and build buildings, develop social fellowships, sing, distribute “witness wear” T-shirts, etc.
He did say, “go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.”
The third “noise” that needs to be heard in the church is that of praise and worship. Sincere, from the heart of thanksgiving praise! May prayer, preaching, and praise be unrestricted in the church!
The next “noise” that needs to be heard in the church is that of the sound of testimonies. Somebody has to testify!
Somebody has to tell somebody of what the Lord has done for them. Somebody has to tell somebody how the Lord brought them out. Somebody has to tell somebody how the Lord set them free. Somebody needs to brag on Jesus!
I will bless the Lord at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth. My soul shall make her boast in the Lord: the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad. Oh magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt His name together. Psalm 34:1-4
Somebody write a book!
