“I tell you,” he replied, “if they keep quiet, the stones will cry out.”
Luke 19:40
 
The whole crown of disciples began joyfully to praise God in loud voices for all the miracles they had seen: "Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord!" "Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!" ~ Luke 19:37-38 - The Commandment Co's Short sermon series
 
The disciples were praising God for the miracles they had seen when some of the Pharisees in the crowd told Jesus to rebuke His disciples. But Jesus said that if the disciples did not cry out with joy, the stones will. How could stones cry out? Stones are stones - they’re cold and emotionless! BUT even so, the stones will praise God!
 
Let them praise His name with dancing. Let them sing praises to Him with the tambourine and lyre. ~ Psalm 149:3 - The Commandment Co's Short Sermon Series: The stones will cry out
 
 
This is what happens when we allow Jesus into our lives - we will be full of praise and joy that we cannot contain! Even those with the coldest and hardest of hearts (like a heart of stone) will cry out the praises of the Lord for He is THAT good.
 
 You have turned my mourning into dancing for me: You have taken off my sackcloth and clothed me with joy, that my soul may sing praise to you and not be silent. O Lord my God, I will give thanks to you forever ~ Ps 30:11-12 - The Commadment Co's Short sermon series: The stones will cry out
 
When we allow ourselves to be filled by Jesus, we will have inexplicable praise and joy! And when we experience this joy, don’t hold it back or stop yourself from expressing it. Don’t be afraid to praise the Lord with song and dance! Let no one stop you from praising and worshipping God with Joy.
