Worship Wednesdays #7 - GLADNESS = God's Grace & Mercy

Worship Wednesdays #7 - GLADNESS = God's Grace & Mercy

This is the seventh post in a series called "Worship Wednesdays".  In this series I will focus on one word, thought or lesson and I will feature a modern Christian song that relates to the focus of the day.
Click HERE to read the post from last week about LIMITLESS LOVE.

Let's begin by defining WORSHIP - the feeling or expression of adoration for a deity.  Adoration, love, devotion, adulation, glorify, exalt, praise.

There are many ways to worship God but in this series it will be through music.

“Seven times a day I praise you.” 

Psalm 119:164

"For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast."  Ephesians 2:8-9 

"But when the kindness and love of God our Savior appeared, he saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy."  
Titus 3:4&5

Many people do not know the difference between God's GRACE & MERCY.

GRACE - is the gift from God that we do NOT deserve.  The gift of forgiveness and eternal life through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ.

MERCY - is the punishment that we DO deserve but were spared from receiving through Jesus' sacrifice.  The punishment of eternal damnation.

All you need to do is believe that Jesus Christ came to earth and died on the cross for your sins!  He rose again from the grave and is alive today!  Ask God for forgiveness today!
