Bible Verse of The Day – 7-30-19

John 4:23 (NKJV) 23 But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him.

Worshiping God is something that must be done with a right heart.

It doesn’t mean we have to be perfect in our worship of Him. It just means that we need to come to Him with our own heart, not someone else’s.

Let me explain.

So many Christians come to God in ways that they have seen others do. That’s not our heart. That’s a heart that has learned the moves and the language of others, over time.

A true and right heart is a heart that enters in with humility, sincerity and a knowing that only God has the answer for our situation.

God knows if we are going through the motions or coming to Him with a sincere heart.

It’s important that we don’t follow others in our worship, but that we let our own heart, our own personality enter into God’s presence.

God loves our uniqueness. He takes what we say and do personally. He listens and loves what we do and say with Him. So, making sure we are real and being ourselves, paying attention to our own hearts and the things we say and do in our time with God, is of the utmost importance.

Psalm 57:7 (NKJV) 7 My heart is steadfast, O God, my heart is steadfast; I will sing and give praise.

It’s easy to mimic someone else’s worship. But it does nothing for us or for God. Our own intimate effort, a deep searching within ourselves out of our own heart, is what moves Papa. Amen.
