Psalm 100:4, "Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name."
When we pass through the doors of the church, hymns of thanksgiving should be on our lips. And, when we enter into the sanctuary, hymns of praise should be on our hearts. Worshipping Him with songs/hymns of thanksgiving and praise can usher in a awesome, powerful presence into the service.
Be thankful...that word thankful means to give thanks. But, it comes from the word that means strength and powerful. Giving thanks to Him brings strength and power!
And, bless His name. We need to bless, praise and salute His name. The word "name" can be translated in this verse as a memorial or monument. His name should be a monument in our life. An identifying mark in our life that serves as a remembrance of His greatness and mercy. His name is greater than any other name. There is power in the name of Jesus. All power in heaven and in earth belong to that name. All things are possible through that name.
What an AWESOME God we serve...and His name is JESUS! ♥
