What does it mean to worship Christ? Is it just singing a song? Being overcome with emotion and falling upon your face before your King? That is part of it, but we are to worship even when we don't "feel" like it. He is our God, Mighty and Holy. We worship him because he deserves it, because he is GOD. We bow down to the King because of Who he is, not because he does nice things for us. He does, because he is good, but we praise and worship him in times of sorrow and in times of rejoicing. In famine and abundance.
The amazing thing is when we choose to worship, yes it is a choice, the Creator of the Universe comes down and is with us, communes with us, and surrounds us and we enter into a place that can only be reached with Him.
Often our lives are busy and we don't have "time" to spend in worship, but it should be a priority, not a left over act, if we have time.
So get up a little earlier to spend time with your Wonderful Saviour, He deserves it, and you get blessed for it.
What is better than spending time with Jesus, can anything else compare?
In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God- John 1:1

ReplyDeleteThese are wonderful and true things. But we must be careful to understand that we can only choose to worship the Lord by the gift of faith through the grace of God. This is so God receives all glory, and that no man can boast in anything. Those who continue in this faith have been chosen to be the children of God from before the foundation of the world! What a most wonderful gift, and a most wonderful reason to worship the living God! What manner of love He has bestowed upon us! But without faith, there are no works, no prayers, no religion that will save us. But we have the wrath of an angry God to deal with, because we have not loved and believed in His only begotten Son. There is no priest who can atone for our sins other than our high priest, Jesus Christ. My dear Alondra, I hope and pray that you have this faith of the saints, worthy of the eternal glorification of God.
ReplyDeleteSuch faith causes the devil to tremble.
