Worship God in Truth

2016-05-29 Devotional with Hymn No comments

“God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth.” (John 4:24, NIV)

To worship God in truth is to acknowledge Him to be what He is, and ourselves to be what we are.

To worship Him in truth is to recognize from the depths of our soul that He is indeed infinitely perfect, worthy of infinite adoration, infinitely removed from sin, and immeasurably full of every divine quality. Isn’t the person unreasonable who does not use all his powers to give this God the worship He is due?

To worship God in truth is to confess that we fall far short of this reasonable response to Him. If we were only willing, He would make us like Himself. Aren’t we foolish to withhold, even for a moment, the love, service, and ceaseless worship that we owe Him?

Worship God in Spirit

2015-05-17 Devotional with Hymn No comments

God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth.
(John 4:24, NIV)

To worship God in spirit and in truth means to give Him the worship that is His due.

God is a spirit. Therefore He must be worshiped in spirit, by a humble and genuine worship in the depths of our souls, where He alone can see it.

As we worship Him more and more often, this worship becomes a natural response to His continual presence with us. God becomes one with our souls and our souls one with Him. What began as our sporadic response of love gradually blends into a unison of love with Him. We begin to taste the beautiful, unbroken union Christ enjoys with the Father.
