We are excited to invite you to a worship and prayer call dedicating our new national outreach: Detox – Find Your Balance. Most of you are familiar with Detox, though possibly not the idea of dedicating it to God. I want to share some thoughts and Scripture on the tradition of dedicating our lives and purposes to the Lord.

Dedications point to God, as we worship Him and offer prayer that He will be honored and glorified through the person or item being dedicated. One example of this is dedicating our children to the Lord, praying that God would call them to His kingdom at an early age. We also dedicate new churches, inviting God to use them for His glory.

Proverbs 16:3 instructs us to dedicate our work and gives us a promise, “Dedicate your work to the Lord, and then your plans will succeed.” And Psalm 145:4-7 tells us what we can do to give honor to God:

Let each generation tell its children of your mighty acts;
let them proclaim your power.
I will meditate on your majestic, glorious splendor
and your wonderful miracles.
Your awe-inspiring deeds will be on every tongue;
I will proclaim your greatness.
Everyone will share the story of your wonderful goodness;
they will sing with joy about your righteousness.

To follow in these examples, we will dedicate Detox to God’s glory and honor. Praise and joy fill our hearts because of what He has accomplished through the work of our hands and dependence upon Him.
