What True Worship is. Part [10] 04/29/2024 (Evening thought)

Revelation 14:6 And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people.

In our day, the everlasting gospel to be preached to our generation, focuses the spotlight squarely on the issue of obedience to God’s law, as an integral part of any true worship, especially since the final conflict of the ages will center around obedience to either God, or the opposing forces entrenched in the mark of the beast.

The issue is so serious that worship is scheduled to be tethered to your economic privileges, which in turn will draw a clear line of demarcation between those who worship God, and persons who don’t. so far, many Christians have been willing to sit on the fence or on the sidelines, as far as true worship is concerned.

But the time is now, when persons will be called on to take a definite stand for the true worship of God. Merely taking the name of Jesus nominally doesn’t distinguish one as a true worshipper anymore, for those days are over. Persons will need to address in sincerity, that which God is stating in Revelation 14.

Revelation 14:7 Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.

May God add His blessing to the stud of His word. “Good night” and God bless!

What True Worship is. Part [9] 04/28/2024 (Morning thought)

John 4:20 Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.

However, in many instances, where extravagance, or outward display of magnificent buildings, paintings, and architectural marvels are to be found at places of worship, true worship is nowhere to be found. It isn’t the grandeur of the place that makes it a place of true worship, it’s the truth and obedience factors which signal that true worship is taking place.

Then, Jesus set about to make plain to all who will understand, that true worship is not about buildings and ambience or grandeur, but rather incorporates the elements of obedience as the main ingredients, with reverence and praise coming after. Thus, when a person worships God in spirit and in truth, all of the above must be included.

John 4: 21 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father. 23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeks such to worship him. 24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.

John 4:25 The woman saith unto him, I know that Messiah cometh, which is called Christ: when he is come, he will tell us all things. 26 Jesus saith unto her, I that speak unto thee am he.

May The Lord add His blessing to the study of His word. God bless!
