This is the day which the Lord hath made;
we will rejoice and be glad in it.
Psalm 118:24
There were fifty-five men in church this morning...
we will rejoice and be glad in it.
Psalm 118:24
There were fifty-five men in church this morning...
Not that the number means anything. This is a prison which houses about 600. So getting fifty or more for a Sunday service when, for the most part, these guys could've all chosen to stay in their bunks since they're off from their work assignments or school classes today, is a decent amount.
Meanwhile, the Spirit of God was surely moving among us because every aspect of the service went exceptionally well, from opening prayer, Scripture readings, worship and hands held high in humble adoration, the choir with their selection of songs followed by the sermon from our visiting minister, to an altar call for any man who needed special prayer. Everything seemed to move in perfect harmony like a healthy human body with all its parts working and co-existing together to accomplish its main purpose of staying alive.
For me, I consider it a privilege to have the opportunity to gather with my fellow prisoners to worship the God of heaven and earth. This has indeed been a day which the Lord has made to rejoice in.
