Louder Than Rocks

Posted on by Vince Miller
Day 16

ENGLISH

As he was drawing near—already on the way down the Mount of Olives—the whole multitude of his disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen, saying, "Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord! Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!" And some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to him, "Teacher, rebuke your disciples." He answered, "I tell you, if these were silent, the very stones would cry out."—Luke 19:37-40

This was Jesus's royal march to the end of this mission on earth. He entered the Holy City praised by a few exuberant followers only at the end to be rejected by his own people—not respected.

The irony of this moment is that this was cause for celebration for some, and for others, it was cause for concern. For those who had walked with Jesus, this resulted in uninhibited praise. For those not so familiar, their inhibitions were exhibited by their present concerns. Regardless Jesus understands that if men did not sing and celebrate, that creation itself would demand response as even stones are singing about this moment.

Everyone will experience the coming of Christ differently. Even so, we who are Christians should not diminish our praise. We should praise more readily and energetically, not to taunt but to celebrate. Why leave celebration to the boulders, rocks, and pebbles? Instead, let's praise the King together as followers of Christ.

DO THIS: This week, we are focusing on the discipline of brotherhood.

Your Call To Act (C.T.A.) today is:

  • Pray: for 3-5 minutes, praising God for what he has done for you and others.
  • Share: below, giving a shout of praise as bothers.
  • Tell: one person today something you are praising God about.

    I just can’t imagine giving up your only son in a painful death so our sins may be forgiven. Pain in that moment, but joy forever. God is good!

    So thankful that during this season of COVID, it has given time to dwell with God and brought church into homes. I have found a close group around the world that meets and we chat and support each other daily. Even though I have cared for COVID positive patients, God has kept myself and my coworkers safe. Thankful that I am able to go and connect with my church family today in person, first time in a year. God bless you all.

    I am praising the Lord for bringing Christian men into my life, knowing that we support each other in prayer and support during “life”. My “me” face (which I can wear quite well) is that I can deal with life on my own. However, my Jesus face is that I need to allow men of faith in; where we build each other up through our faith and friendship. To me that is brotherhood. Thank you Lord for brotherhood.

    Admittedly, this is a self-centered shout-out, but I have to praise God that He didn’t allow me to be of the world, meaning that when I tried to act like the world does, the world would say, in some way, “You’re too ‘off’ to act like we do”. From the start, He wanted me to be His, not because of anything I would or could do — because that amounts to zero, zip, nothing — but because of His grace, and His grace alone.

    Brothers who are with me on this journey to recognize how much Jesus Christ has blessed us with. Remember we are all worthy of all Jesus’s gifts. We must rise to the top and live by the faith of Jesus Christ. Yes we will fall but we must ask for forgiveness, rebuke our sin and ask for the strength to fight temptation in the future. Once forgiven by Jesus we must forget as Jesus does and move forward. Do not let satin keep us down. In Jesus name I pray.

    I praise God for a really good family day yesterday as we’re quarantined together. This is an answer to prayer. I also praise God for change and transformation. I’m not the same man I was last year, 5, 10, 15….. years ago. Lord, thank you for renewing my mind!

    I love that all our inhibitions and insecurities will melt away in heaven; the relationships I have with my brothers here will be so much sweeter and pure in eternity. This also convicts me to be more open and honest with my brothers, and especially my small group, and live in light of that

    Praising God for the extra family time I’ve been experiencing with Jen, Alex and Jack. We are engaging in meaningful conversations, are more relaxed and playing family games together.

    I’m also thankful for Eric for coordinating this group and asking me to be part of the Warriors. I look forward to listening, reflecting, praying and sharing each day.

    With every change of season, with every planting, growing and harvest season – creation proclaims the glory of Our Lord. We are His greatest creation so let’s be His greatest worshipers proclaiming with total abandonment “Our God IS AN AWESOME GOD” for the miracle of salvation, redemption, love and adoption.
    All Praise King Jesus. – AMEN.

      Being in isolation during this time of my life has given me a chance to renew faith in him. I’m realizing that in the difficulty’s I’ve encountered it is the best time of my life. It’s a time today for togetherness as he is speaking to us. He will make it better even if the future is unknown. Letting God in is allowing me to be drawn closer to him and to give praise & be greatful!

    I tend to be future-oriented and fail to take time to recall all that God has already done for me. I have been so blessed. Being quarantined has allowed time to thank God for what he has done for me. Now may I move ahead with gratitude. I listened to the song “It is well with my soul”. We can all have peace in this time of crisis. God is in control.
