See n Say

Today you cannot turn on your television set without some cop show being shown. One of the more popular shows is “Law and Order”. I am not sure how many of you have seen this show, however, if you have not, I am sure that you have seen some police show where someone was arrested. When that person on TV was arrested, they always read them their “rights”.

The Miranda Rights is a warning given by police in the United States to criminal suspects in police custody before they are interrogated to preserve the admissibility of their statements against them in criminal proceedings. “You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to an attorney. If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be provided for you. Do you understand the rights I have just read to you? With these rights in mind, do you wish to speak to me?”

While the Miranda rights if not given violates ones rights, I likewise believe that a saint, believer, or christian who is quite violates a even bigger spiritual law. Psalm 107:1-2 Oh give thanks to the Lord, for he is good, for his steadfast love endures forever! ²  Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, whom he has redeemed from trouble

If you are nearing the big "50" like me you will remember the toy every child loved while growing up and probably purchased a few for those little ones around you. It’s the famous and fabulous Fisher-Price “See n Say” that was introduced in the 1960’s. The one I remember the most growing up was the farmer’s "See n Say" which taught you the sounds you would hear around the farm or in the country. Very user-friendly just point the arrow and put the string and the "See n Say" would make the sound of the animal in the picture. The cow would moo. The pig would grunt. Chickens, birds, horses, roosters and so on, each making their unique, distinct and diverse God-given sound.   Well I believe that exactly what the Psalmist had in mind in Psalm 107: Oh give thanks to the Lord, for he is good, for his steadfast love endures forever! ²  Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, whom he has redeemed from trouble

1. Which one should say so! “Let the redeemed”

2. What one should say!  “redeemed of the Lord”

3. Why one should say so! “redeemed from trouble”

DON’T LET THE DEVIL STEAL YOUR PRAISE! If God has been good to you others ought see something and hear something.
