WORSHIP THAT GOD APPROVESĀ 

WHAT IS WORSHIP ?

To worship is to have or show a strong feeling of respect and admiration for  God…. Is a feeling or expression of reverence and adoration to a deity.,a supreme being. 

There are several meanings of worships and adoration to God on a religious and regular bases. According to the topic \”Worship that God approves\”

How can we  identify the worship that God approves?                       The word of God is perfect and it\’s all encompassing, so for anybody to know the context of a book is by opening the book and reading to know the thought of the author not by merely looking at the cover of the book because the cover might be deceptive.

The Bible is written by the inspiration of the  Holy Spirit according to the word of God and for you to know the mind of God is to search and read His word \” for the  word of God is alive and active Sharper than any double edged sword. It penetrates even to dividing souls and spirit, joints and marrows, it judges the thoughts and attitude of the heart (Hebrew 4:12). NIV. But verse 13 specifically   stated that no creature is hidden from Him but all things are naked and open to His eyes of whom you must give account of your doings (paraphrased), 

WHAT THEN IS THE WORSHIP GOD APPROVES ?

…..And the Lord respected Abel and his offering but He did not respect Cain and his offering.  And Cain was very angry and his countenance fell so the Lord said to Cain why are you angry and why are your countenance fallen \”if you do well will you not be accepted?  (Genesis 4: 3-7). These are an account of two brothers who are unto two different fields, one day they decided to worship God with their substances according to the abilities within their reach but Abel\’s worship was accepted and honoured by God in whose eyes every actions are weighed. 

And Solomon loved the Lord and offered to Him the best and highest sacrifices, then the Lord at Gibeon appeared to him in a dream and honoured Solomon and promised to establish his throne (1king3:3-15).

God Almighty inhibites in the praises of His people. Many people  in a diverse manner worship God perhaps as a religion rite yet there are kinda of worship that God hate and will not accept. In the book of Isaiah l:11-15 \”…….When  you spread out your hands l will  hide my eyes from you, even though you make many prayers I will not answer. Your hands are full of blood). 

The sacrifices of the wicked  is an abomination to the Lord but the prayers of the upright is His delight. (proverbs 15: 8).

\”Not everyone who says to me Lord Lord shall enter the kingdom of heaven but he who does the will of my father in heaven ( Matthew 7:21).  In the book of Matthew 4:10   Jesus rebuked Satan and warned him that It was written \” you shall worship the Lord your  God and him only you shall serve\”.God is Spirit and those who worship Him must worship Him in spirit and truth

In conclusion is not every worship carried out by anybody that honours God and as well spur Him into action, that was why God said in 2 chronicles 7:14 \”if my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray, seek my face and forsake their wicked ways then I will forgive their sins and heal their land\”. God does not despise a broken and a contrite heart. 

 worshipping God has a lot of benefits, It brings  God close to man and makes God to tabernacle among men for personal  gains. The book of psalms 103 says Bless the Lord oh my soul and all that is within me  bless His holy name. Bless the Lord O my soul and forget not all His benefits…. Read psalm 103:1-5.When you worship God with all your heart and every sincerity of purpose with faith, He will cause the supernatural to happen in the natural as His goodness which comes to you as benefits. 

 May you be blessed as you read. Cheers! Blessing
