How do you define worship?Jesus said in the samaritan woman in the book of John when she asked where is the right place to worship: that we should "WORSHIP IN SPIRIT And IN TRUTH."John 4:19-24New King James Version (NKJV)19 The woman said to Him, “Sir, I perceive that You are a prophet. 20 Our fathers worshiped on this mountain, and you Jews say that in Jerusalem is the place where one ought to worship.” 21 Jesus said to her, “Woman, believe Me, the hour is coming when you will neither on this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, worship the Father. 22 You worship what you do not know; we know what we worship, for salvation is of the Jews.23 But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him. 24 God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.” What do you mean by Spirit? It doesn't actually means to worship in tongues and language of heaven but truly worship from within. When you worship with all your heart from the Spirit that lives within you that is worshipping in spirit and in truth. Worship because you want to glorify and honor God. Worship because you Love God. Worship because you know that He deserve all of you. Friends, you can actually sing, sing very well but don't worship. You can give all your offerings and tithes without worship. You can sacrifice and serve without worship if your heart don't goes with it. It is true. We can just do those stuff for the sake of doing it but doesn't really mean it from our hearts. I want to quote this from Lamar Boschman: "When I worship, I would rather my heart be without words, than my words be without heart." Let us give God the true worship He deserves. That is what He ask of us. Now ask yourself, are you really worshipping God in whatever you do; in where ever you are? Are you singing or worshipping? Because those two are totally different. Choose to Worship our Lord in Spirit and in Truth, be a true worshiper of our Jesus Christ. Do it with Pure Love. |
