The world’s best worship leaders are infants s30e99 Ps 8½
There is a season in the development of little humans when they cannot yet talk. Ironically, the Lord uses this season for them to PRAISE and to LEAD in PRAISE. If you have ever seen a baby up close, you might have cooed and admired and commented as to their glory. This is the Lord's doing. He uses such little ones to praise Him. He uses such little ones to lead adults in praise. He uses those who cannot talk to shut the mouths of those who can.He uses those who cannot talk to most clearly sing the strengths of God to those who can.

What does the presence of God feel like? s30e96 Ps32
I'd love to say that the presence of God always feels joyful, intimate and enjoyable. Sometimes, though, it feels like a HEAVY HAND. Yikes.This heavy hand is directionally moving us towards something: forgiveness. It is the most important of life skills. Without the skill of repentance, your life will be an ongoing testimony to one wrecked relationship after another--including with the Almighty. Watch and admire with me what David does when he feels this heavy hand of God.Subscribe for more tomorrow.https://youtu.be/x44p1nopS4s
Acerca de Be With Me: 7 Minutes of Biblical Wonder
Be With Me is a daily 7 minute chronological walk through the New Testament hosted by Michael Smith. It is for everyone who is curious about what Jesus actually said and did in the gospels. Most episodes will leave you with at least one good thought to chew on for the rest of the day. We start with the Bible and hopefully end with Awe. We are walking through the chronological events of Jesus' life and then thoughtfully considering them. It is meant to spur the devotional life of the Christian and the not-yet-Christian. We occasionally venture into the Old Testament when it helps our understanding of the New Testament events. Everybody has 7 minutes. Everybody needs to wonder. Be With Me is hosted by Michael Smith who has absolutely no special qualifications to do a podcast. He is not a pastor. He has not been to seminary. He does not lead a mega-church. He is not a professional and he has no more credentials than you do. He does, however, follow a great God with an observant eye and a curious heart. Each day, he starts with a study bible and aims for astonishment. ‘be with him’ for 7 minutes as he sets out daily to discover the God who invites us to ‘Be With Me.’
