“I hate, I despise your feasts, and I take no delight in your solemn assemblies. Even though you offer me your burnt offerings and grain offerings, I will not accept them; and the peace offerings of your fattened animals, I will not look upon them. Take away from me the noise of your songs; to the melody of your harps I will not listen. But let justice roll down like waters, and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream. “Did you bring to me sacrifices and offerings during the forty years in the wilderness, O house of Israel? You shall take up Sikkuth your king, and Kiyyun your star-god—your images that you made for yourselves, and I will send you into exile beyond Damascus,” says the LORD, whose name is the God of hosts.

5 Days
“You become what you behold, you reflect what you worship…” In this 5-day series of devotions, pastor and worship leader Dustin Smith of Here Be Lions reminds us that we serve a Holy God and are called to advance His Kingdom, authority and order on Earth. These devotionals will help you prepare to be used by God, welcoming His presence and power as you are consumed by Him … because who else can heal, save and restore? Only a Holy God.
We need songs we can share—songs that inform our hearts and minds of what is true for the times when we cannot think true things for ourselves. Over five days, Sandra McCracken’s Send Out Your Light plan meditates on the effects of God’s goodness, righteousness, and faithfulness on uncertainty, anger, and fear.
In 100 carefully selected passages from the Bible, you will discover who Jesus is and why he is so significant – even life-transforming. Through both Old and New Testament readings, you will discover why God sent Jesus, what Jesus taught, how he treated people, why he did miracles, the meaning of his death, the significance of his resurrection, and what the Bible says about his second coming.
God’s people face a daily choice between obedience and obstinance. It marked Israel’s history. It marks ours too. Acts 7 is a face-off between obedience and obstinance as Jesus’s Kingdom continues to grow. This 5-day Plan continues a journey through the Book of Acts, the Bible’s gripping sequel of Jesus at work in the life of His followers as He expands His Kingdom to the ends of the Earth. It’s a journey on what it means to be a Christian. It’s a story in which you have a role to play.
