Heritage Southern Baptist Church

Sometimes, in my weekly contribution, many agree and some don't, and some do not read it at all. I have message today that I think everyone will enjoy. "Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all you lands! Serve the Lord with gladness! Come before His presence with singing! Know and understand that the Lord is God! It is He Who has made us, not we ourselves - and we are His!  We are the sheep of His pasture. Enter into His gates with thanksgiving and with a thank offering, and into His courts with praise! Be thankful and say so to Him, bless and affectionately praise His name!  For the Lord is good; His mercy and loving-kindness are everlasting; His faithfulness and truth endure to all generations."  Psalm 100. May we incorporate this message into our hearts, and if we do, then we shall be blessed.

Psalm 3:11 gives a good description as to the day that we are living in, "If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?" Our generation has seen the foundations of our society destroyed before our very eyes. The foundation of any society is the family, especially the family of faith. We have seen the home being destroyed from within, by giving  attention to the things without. The church house has become a play house, bereft of the true gospel, believing a false gospel that cannot save anyone. Psalm 82:5, says, "They know not, neither will they understand; they walk on in darkness; all the foundations of the earth are out of course (shaken)"  This is that day we are now living in.  We know what will happen when the foundation of a house comes apart; Jesus said great will be the fall of it. The real question in this Psalm is "What will the righteous do?" Simply keep on trusting the Lord. II Timothy 2:19 gives us great faith and satisfaction,  "Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, let everyone that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity."  And James adds, "and to keep himself unspotted from the world." Let us make sure on which foundation we are putting our trust, then we shall never fall.
