WORSHIP GOD BECAUSE HE'S GOD!

I love every opportunity I get to worship God! It doesn’t matter where I am. I can be at home in my room, at the computer, in my car on the way to the office, or on the stage at church. Regardless of where I am the experience is the same. It’s so wonderful to worship God. When we worship God we are telling Him who He is. We are blessed when we worship God because it is an unselfish offering. “Behold, thus shall the man be blessed who reverently and worshipfully fears the Lord.” (Psalms 128:4 AMP)

When we worship God favor falls on us because we are telling God who He is in our life and what He means to us. “The Lord takes pleasure in those who reverently and worshipfully fear Him, in those who hope in His mercy and loving-kindness.” (Psalms 147:11 AMP) It’s the sacrifice of worship that changes our lives and our circumstances. When we worship God sacrificially it’s not really a sacrifice because we are so excited to be in His presence and we look forward to hearing from Him. "Which hope [of the Messiah and the resurrection] our twelve tribes confidently expect to realize as they fervently worship [without ceasing] night and day.” (Acts 26:7 AMP) We should be grateful for those times when we can go into a place of worship with the Father. We can rest in the knowing that God will be pleased when we worship Him. And it is because of that reason that we worship Him without ceasing. “I thank God Whom I worship with a pure conscience, in the spirit of my fathers, when without ceasing I remember you night and day in my prayers…” (2Timothy 1:3 AMP)

So take some time every day to offer worship to God and it will show in every area of your life. When you worship God, He reveals Himself to you. And once you’ve been in the presence of God, truly the old you will be no more and you will increase in God. Then when you come into contact with others they want to know what’s different about you. It is then that you can tell them about the good news of Jesus and all He did for you!!

Glory to God!!
