A worshipper

People worship in life.. either consciously or unconsciously..


Definition of worship :
show reverence and adoration for (a deity)

So,
some pay full adoration and reverence over money, some on Facebook, games, technology, coupling, boasting, or maybe friends..These eventually become the "deity" in their own life..which they found most important and essential.

However,
is such worships bear "fruit"?
We shall see it..

Then,
how should people worship God?

The English word "worship" comes from two Old English words: weorth, which means "worth," and scipe or ship, We can see the Old English word -ship in modern words like friendship and sportsmanship – that’s the quality of being a friend, or the quality of being a good sport.

So worth-ship is the quality of having worth or of being worthy. When we worship, we are saying that God has worth, that he is worthy. Worship means to declare worth, to attribute worth. Or to put it in biblical terms, we praise God. We speak, or sing, about how good and powerful God is.

New International Version (©1984)God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth." John 4:24

There we know, in spirit and truth we worship the Al-Mighty and graceful God.

It doesnt matter where the worship takes place..

But what more important is, 

knowing who You are worshiping..

There is three kinds of worship. There is

1. worship that involves speaking, and
2. worship that involves listening, and
3. a worship that involves doing.

There is a worship that expresses the heart, and worship that involves the mind, and a worship that involves the body. There is a worship that is giving praise upward, a worship that is receiving instructions from above, and a worship that carries out instruction in the world around us.

We need all three types of worship. Some people focus primarily on speaking or singing praise to God. Praise is good, but if all we do is praise God, without ever listening to what he says, we have to ask whether we believe the words we are saying. If he is really all wise and all loving, then we need to be attentive to what he is telling us, because he is worth listening to.

Similarly, all talk and no action does not show God the respect he deserves. Actions speak louder than words, and if our behavior isn’t changed by God, then our actions are saying that God isn’t important — he’s a nice idea, but not relevant to our day-to-day lives. When we really believe that God is worthy of every praise, then we will be willing to listen and to change the way we live in response to such a worthy God. We will trust him and seek him and want to please him as much as we can. Worship should affect our behavior.

quoted from 

And be reminded, when we talk of a "subject of person" , there is something wonderful in between,

which is a relationship, connection..

So, 

let's beware of what we worship and lift high;

let's live a life of worship, not worship as part of life;

let's grow..


Get closer and more alike to God
Be blessed..
