What are we doing in our Worship?

Friends, what are we doing in our worship? Are we coming to the alter of grace with a sacrificial thanksgiving in our heart and a sincere motive of G-d centered, G-d fearing, G-d exulting praise when we come to the house of the Lord. Worship can be done in so many was to please Jehovah, and it can be done in so many ways to show signs of disrespect as well. We must not be about personal glorification and becoming more impressed with the latest fade of how one should worship. The Lord gave the Sabbath Day for His chief creations to remember the reason for the Sabbath (means a day set apart/ not the seventh day) which is to rest and remember where the Lord your G-d brought you from . That is why worship is so important because if you think about the way you have handed the week, you have seriously in some way mishandled the way you remember the struggle. Being involved in a church that has a great choir, great children/youth programs, even having excellent preaching is not enough for your personal growth.
What are we doing in our worship? Yes it is hard to focus on the message if the preacher is not capturing you with his preaching. But if you are in a form of worship, you should be praying for that preacher instead of noticing how dull things seem. We have been distracted by many wonderfully animated displays of what some call preaching, but the substance of the message is the best thing to look for when you are in the house of worship. If the message is not laced with the Messiah, if it is not centered around the Messiah, if it is not talking about the redemptive work that the Messiah has for you, or the restoration that the Messiah can do for you, then my beloved friend you then must pray even harder for that individual and the sheep that he is leading. The best way to witness the release of God's blessings is to pray that His will will be done "on earth as it is in heaven". The worship that one has for the Lord is the center piece for our existence today. We need to be about worshipping Him until He returns or our living will be in vain. My dear friends call upon the Lord for an extra jolt in your prayer life, for an extra jolt in your worship, and an extra jolt in your commitment to His truths.

With so much love for the Savior,
