Thought for the Day
Nehemiah 9:3, 6 And they stood up in their place, and read in the book of the law of the LORD their God one fourth part of the day; and another fourth part they confessed, and worshipped the LORD their God... (6) Thou, even thou, art LORD alone; thou hast made heaven, the heaven of heavens, with all their host, the earth, and all things that are therein, the seas, and all that is therein, and thou preservest them all; and the host of heaven worshippeth thee.
It is wonderful how the people of Israel in Nehemiah chapter nine attribute confession to worship. We typically think of confession as having to do with admitting sin, and although it can have to do with sin, it is much broader. Literally "to confess" means "to tell the truth". When we confess our sin, we are telling the truth about our sin. When we make confession of our God, we are telling the truth about Him.
Worship then is telling the truth about who God is, what He has done, and what He is capable of doing!
