Serving Shoulder to Shoulder

Zephaniah; Psalm 139; Proverbs 30:15-16

Oil and water. Dogs and cats. Twilight fans and the sane. None of these pairs go well together. None of them mixes.

That’s how it used to be with Jews and non-Jews. They didn’t mix, and the true God seemed at times to be only the God of the Jews.

But this true God revealed that He does not want to be God only of the Jews. He is God of non-Jews, too. He accepts them. They can be welcomed among His people. And He—God Himself—will draw them to Himself.

Then will I purify the lips of the peoples, that all of them may call on the name of the LORD and serve him shoulder to shoulder. – Zephaniah 3:9

Come and join me, whether you’re Jewish, Afghani, Indian, Native American, European, Hispanic—whoever you are and whatever race you come from. Let’s serve the Lord Jesus Christ, the one true God, shoulder to shoulder.
