8 September 2025 Word by Senior Pastor, Pastor Darien Choo

Today’s Inspiration: “Lift up your heads, you gates; lift them up, you ancient doors, that the King of glory may come in.” Psalms 24:9 NIV. Worship lifts up our hands and heads unto God with praises and rejoicing. Just as Moses, Aaron and Hur lifts up the staff of God, the Israelites begin to win battles against the Amalakites as the Lord of Hosts routs the enemy. The battles belongs to the Lord when we praise and worship God. 2 Chronicles 20:15. Gates are being lifted and doors are being opened powerfully.

We are created to worship God and our eyes are like gates which either expose to light or darkness. Jesus said,”The eye is the lamp of the body. If your eyes are healthy, your whole body will be full of light. But if your eyes are unhealthy, your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light within you is darkness, how great is that darkness!” Matthew 6:22-23. I lift up my eyes to the mountains— where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth. He will not let your foot slip— he who watches over you will not slumber. Psalms 121:1-3. Let our eyes and mind be filled with Christ.

Prayer: O Lord my God, I lift up my hands and head in awe of your glory in worship. I believe all the gates and doors shall be lifted and open for your glory to enter with holy presence, majesty and power. You are the king of kings, lord of lords and the lord of hosts. You make rivers flow in the deserts and pathway in the wilderness. Let the new season be filled with your wonders, victory and breakthroughs, in Jesus Name, Amen.
