Men, women
and youth of CBC, when the pressures of life come upon us and we get to
the place where we want to hide in a cave, God often places people
around us who prod us into moving in the right direction. He does not
want us to remain in the place of discouragement. He wants us to move into the land of "praise." Judah means "praise."

David
and his fighting men had been hiding in the cave of Adullam. He was
fleeing Saul. Many of life's down-and-out had come and joined David's
army. Unfortunately, David was content to stay in the stronghold of
safety. Then, God's prophet came to David and told him that he must
leave the stronghold and go into the land of Judah.
God
is preparing each of us to be the vessel He wants to use in the life of
another person, but we will never be that vessel if we give up and hide
in our cave of discouragement & disappointments.
God
has begun a new wave of praise at Community Baptist Church. Would you
hide in your cave of pain, disappointments and discouragements or
would ride the wave ?.
Not only must we keep moving into this new realm, but our
attitude must move from discouragement to praise. It is when we move
past discouragement to praise that we begin living above our problems.
Make a decision today to go into the land of Judah. Come and let us praise
the Lord together at Community Baptist.
