If we get mad at God for not answering our prayers, were they prayers or demands? According to your will Lord.

Where is “someone”? They seem to be pretty popular because he is mentioned all the time. When a neighbor needs help we say someone should do it. When we see a problem that needs fixing, we say someone should get that done. When the church needs a volunteer we ask why someone isn’t doing it. Someone should, someone ought to, someone better get on the ball…where is someone!?
Truth is, someone is you and someone is me. We can’t do everything, but we can do something. As we go through each day let’s allow God to lead us to serve whenever we can. So many people need help, love, and just someone to care. Perhaps we are that someone.
Hebrews 13:16 Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are pleasing to God.
Philippians 2:4 Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others.
Luke 6:38 Give, and it will be given to you. Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For with the measure you use it will be measured back to you.”
1 John 3:17 But if anyone has the world's goods and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart against him, how does God's love abide in him?

One of Satan’s greatest victories is when he convinces Christians to keep their relationship with God private. Secular society admonishes us not to witness or pray publicly because we might offend someone. They will say believe your fantasy if you must, but keep it to yourself. Of course, this is the opposite of what Scripture teaches. Jesus said to go and make disciples of all nations. Jesus also said because we believe in Christ the world would hate us just as they hated Him. We are told not to hide our lamp under a bushel, but to be salt and light in a world of darkness. I have heard some Christians even say witnessing just turns off the unbeliever so we shouldn’t share Jesus, just live for Him. While we are to live a life that shows our relationship with Jesus, that isn’t all Jesus requires. Some even have given in to the belief that all religions are valid and there are many ways to God. This is simply a lie from hell.
The bottom line? Many Christians today don’t want to deal with the resistance or persecution they face when they share Christ. They want everyone to like them and just get along with everyone even if it means being a secret Christian. Being a Christian is not just a religious preference, we have the truth that determines whether a person spends eternity in heaven or hell. Many have died as a martyr for Christ and yet some today avoid the slightest chance of criticism by refusing to share the gospel. Jesus said to go and proclaim, not hide and abstain.
Mark 16:15 And he said to them, “Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation.
1 Peter 3:15 But in your hearts honor Christ the Lord as holy, always being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and respect.
Romans 1:16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.

One day as a child, I disobeyed my Mother. I thought I had gotten away with it, but my conscience kept bothering me until I finally confessed to her. She told me she already knew because she had seen me, but was waiting to see if I would own up to what I had done. Though I was still punished it wasn’t as bad as if I had not confessed. I learned that day it is best to own up to and deal with our sins.
When we pray we do not do so to inform God because He already knows everything about us. We pray to confess, petition, worship, and maintain an open relationship with our heavenly Father. Keeping a current, intimate relationship with God keeps us in a position to fully benefit from His love, mercy, and plan for our lives. Speak to Him often. Don’t hesitate or think you are keeping something from Him. He already knows everything about you so as God’s Word tells us in Hebrews 4:16 , “Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need”.
Hebrews 4:13 And no creature is hidden from his sight, but all are naked and exposed to the eyes of him to whom we must give account.
Philippians 4:6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.
Ephesians 6:18 Praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. To that end keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints.

A word this morning from Bro Greg Baskin – Chaplain of the Southern Gospel Promoters Association.2 Chronicles 29:30 Moreover Hezekiah the king and the princes commanded the Levites to sing praise unto the Lord with the words of David, and of Asaph the seer. And they sang praises with gladness, and they bowed their heads and worshipped.
When is the last time your church service wasn’t normal? And I am talking about in a good way. Have you ever been to a collegiate or professional football game? Let me describe my experience:
1. Pay for ticket
2. Deal with lots of traffic
3. Park a long ways away…and pay for that too
4. Deal with long lines and lots of people
5. Sit on horrible seating
6. No replay
7. Expensive snacks
8. Drunks
9. A lot of noise
10. Adults acting like…
You see where I am going with this…I am not saying our church services should be like football games, but shouldn’t we be more excited about what God has done and continues to do in our lives? Notice in the verse posted “they sang praises with gladness.”
How long has it been since you sang praises with gladness? How long has it been since you were excited about God? If your church service seems normal, then it could be because your relationship with God is nothing to be excited about.

Folks, we have talked with William Lee Golden of the Oak Ridge Boys on several occasions. It seems like yesterday but this was one from three years ago about an hour before a concert. Last week he had a birthday and turned 86 years old. He still has the most energy of anyone his age and keeps on the road each week with the Oak Ridge Boys and also his family group “The Goldens”. I hope you enjoy listening to William this morning and be sure and wish him a Belated Happy Birthday!
