Day 197 of 365

Praise From the Unlikely

“And said unto him, Hearest thou what these say? And Jesus saith unto them, Yea; have ye never read, Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings thou hast perfected praise?”

Matthew 21:16 (KJV) |

What This Means for You

The religious leaders were furious that children were shouting praises in the temple. Jesus quoted Scripture right back at them: God perfects praise from the mouths of children. You don't have to have a perfect theology degree or eloquent words to worship. Just an honest heart.

Try This Today

Worship like a child today. Put on a worship song and sing it without worrying about how you sound. Let it be messy and real. God calls that 'perfected praise.'
