This new year starts with a call for us to be an empowered church. As Psalm 149:6 says, “Let the high praises of God be in their mouths and a two-edged sword in their hand” – we can be empowered through praise and the Word of God. In the first of a two-part sermon on this verse, SP Daniel Foo expounded on the importance of praise, and how we can come into the presence of God.
