The Lord Is Looking For Worshipers

One of the biggest parts of our service should be the worship that we bring to the Lord.

In our thinking it should be important as anything in the world.

When you come to a service, you may think you are there to get a blessing, to hear the word, to be instructed, to be a blessing to your brother.

That is fine, but really, do not forget God.

What is He after?

He is looking for worshipers that will worship Him in spirit and truth.

Our Lord declares, "The Heavenly Father is looking for worshipers" ( John 4:23 ).

So the first thing we do is give God what He wants.

We open our hearts and we worship.

If we take a casual attitude towards worship, it will never be what God really wants.

Give him the very best.

And when we do that, He is very polite.

After you have given Him the very essence of your heart's love for Him, then He responds.

He will always anoint the word in a special way so that He is speaking back to you.

When the Lord talks to you, it is always very, very precious.

Whether it is reproof or whatever it is, there is still deep assurance that He is telling us He loves us.

He loves His worshipers who have been giving Him the very best that they have.

So that is what we are going to do, is it not?

  Worship the Lord with everything within you.

Do not think in your heart that you are so unworthy and do not deserve anything from the Lord and hold back.

If the Lord waited for worthy people to worship Him, it never would happen, not even from the angels.

No one, no created being is worthy of even standing in His presence.

But that is what He has done- made it possible for us to come into His presence and worship Him and give our love to Him.

He has broken down any partition between us and Himself (Ephesians 2:14 ).

He has given us access to Him.

There is no truth greater than our access to God in our unworthiness, to come through the veil that has been rent so we stand in His presence ( Hebrews 10:19,20 ).

Unworthy as we are, we stand in the righteousness of God , and we worship Him.

There is deep truth in this.

  What a privilege you have.

It is a privilege of worshiping the Lord, of standing in His presence; but even more than that, the greatest privilege is to be standing in His presence in this particular hour in the history of the world.

God is ready to bring forth so much.

We are a unique, special people of destiny.

No different, no better, no worse than those who have gone on before us, we are like Elijah, who was a man of like passions as we are ( James 5:17 ).

We are all subject to frailties, but to think that we have this destiny!

What a treasure we hold in earthen vessels.

What a blessing we have, to come and worship the Lord with all our hearts.
