Genuine Worship Experiences

“God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth” (John 4:24 - Holman CSB).

WE ARE TO WORSHIP GOD EVERY DAY!!!!

Here of late, in our services at Central Baptist Church, especially our Sunday Morning Worship Service, we have been emphasizing and focusing on the true and genuine individual and corporate worship experience….We have been moving to a better understanding that worshiping God is what it is all about; not just making sure that we have 3 hymns, 3 prayers, 1 solo, 1 offering, 1 sermon, and 1 invitation before we finish. It is a must to realize that what we do and how many times we do it throughout a worship service is not the important thing, but instead what is of the utmost importance is that we do it with a spirit and attitude of holy reverence and joyful praise for our Almighty God!!

Our worship experience should not start when we walk through the doors of the church building or after the first prayer is prayed….Worshiping God on Sunday mornings should begin the night before with preparation through prayer and Bible study, as well as making sure we are properly rested so as to give God our very best offering of praise. We all should ready our hearts, minds, and bodies to hear and receive what God has to teach and show us.

THAT IS SUNDAY MORNING; WHAT ABOUT THE REST OF THE WEEK???
Do you take time out of each day of the week to worship your Heavenly Father??
Do you wait until Sunday morning to give Him praise and honor?? Your answer to these questions will determine the quality and direction of your spiritual life!!

When we worship God every day that we live, we are truly blessed, but if we decide to not worship Him, for whatever reason, we loose out on so much that He desires for us to experience! God belongs at the very center of our lives every day and He gives us opportunities to worship Him through our words, our actions, our reactions, and our attitudes….As a child of God, we must put Him where He belongs in our daily walk - ALWAYS FIRST!!!!

I Thessalonians 5:18 says, “in everything give thanks; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.”….This should remind us to praise God in every circumstance of our life!! Sometimes, when things become overwhelming, we don’t feel much like praising and worshiping God….God’s Word is very clear: In every and all situations, our Heavenly Father makes His wonderful love, grace, and strength available to us, therefore, in all circumstances, we should thank Him and worship His Holy Name!!!!!!!

When we worship God with a sincere heart, every day, He will guide our steps and bless us abundantly, every day….

Have you worshiped God with a sincere and genuine heart today???
Please take the time to give Him thanks & honor your Heavenly Father!!!!
