Bended Knees

Psalm 95:6
Come, let us bow down in worship, let us kneel before the LORD our Maker…

One of the most encouraging events that can occur in a believer’s life is found on bended knees. It is found when repentance comes to the heart and the acknowledgement that sin is bigger-stronger than the individual. When hope found in oneself is decimated and that only Jesus Christ can save, can heal, and can cleanse the soul stained by sin. This goes beyond a feeling and into the heart of faith. Faith that reads the Word of God and believes that Word. Faith that cries out for more of God in a person’s life regardless of the cost – regardless of self.


For that is the question… will I serve God or myself? On bended knee and with a broken and contrite heart we are encouraged to turn to God and love him and through obedience we turn from self to God. Through reading and learning and living the Word of God we go from bended knee to walking with God.
