Bible Promise
Psalm 96:4
For great is the LORD and most worthy of praise; he is to be feared above
all gods.
Health Corner
Potassium is a mineral that is part of every body cell. It helps regulate
fluids and mineral balance in and out of cells and in doing so, helps
maintain normal blood pressure. Potassium is also vital for transmitting
nerve impulses or signals, and in helping muscles contract. Potassium is
an electrolyte and can successfully
counterbalance a diet rich in sodium.
Potatoes are a great source of
potassium… much more potassium
than a banana. Potatoes actually
rank highest for potassium content
among the top 20 most frequently
consumed raw vegetables and fruits.
Excess potassium is dangerous for
those with kidney issues.
It’s in the Bible
Music
Music is an expression of worship. It's in the Bible, Exodus 15:1, NIV. “Then
Moses and the Israelites sang this song to the Lord; 'I will sing to the Lord, for
He is highly exalted.’”
A good way to praise God is through music. It's in the Bible, Psalm 33:1-3, and
Psalm 81:1-2, TLB. “Let all the joys of the godly well up in praise to the Lord,
for it is right to praise Him. Play joyous melodies of praise upon the lyre and
on the harp. Compose new songs of praise to Him, accompanied skillfully on
the harp; sing joyfully.” “The Lord makes us strong! Sing praises! Sing to
Israel's God! Sing, accompanied by drums; pluck the sweet lyre and harp.”
