A True Worshiper 3
And when he had removed him, he raised up unto them David to be their king; to whom also he gave testimony, and said, I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after mine own heart, which shall fulfill all my will. . Acts 13:22; 1 Samuel 13:14

What is worship? Worship is the expression of our love affair with our wonderful Father. It really is the only the appropriate response to the God who created Worship is acknowledging the magnificence of the only living God. We worship God for who He is period: The Alpha. The Omega. The Beginning. The End. Worship isn't something observed at church or attended, it is something we are and do actively and voluntary. True worshipers know cherish God everywhere and at every place.
We do live in a culture in which leaders are more consumed with construction of the biggest auditoriums then seeking soul and sermons along with worship are designed to accommodate the audience and the attendees while pleasing God takes a back seat. Our church leaders are money-driven. They tend to forget what worship is all about. Friend, like David, we need to be people who are after God's own heart. We need to imitate Jesus Christ who glorified the father in Spirit and in truth when He lived among us as a man. the fervent desire for what is right in the sight of God should be our only focus.
God loves you and He wants you to praise him, to worship him. He is seeking your worship. God search for worshipers is a worldwide one and it isn’t limited to where you live. Meaning you have to take Him with you on vacation, at your job and every place you go. God rules over the whole earth and He sees you wherever you are; the call to worship is universal. He created man to worship and to love him, and that obligation could never be cancelled.
Friend, God speaks to you and says, “Worship me.” You may say God has enough of praise in heaven, what can He want on earth? You may say that there are plenty of people here on earth to worship God and your worship will not make a difference but you will be wrong. God cares about you personally and specifically; Will He be grieved if you refuse to worship Him? Will He notice your indifference? You better believe it. He has many other voices, but He longs to hear yours. He has countless children and yet He loves them all and He doesn’t want to lose any of them, especially “you”, that is exactly why He sent Jesus Christ to die on that cross. The family would not be complete without you and the worship not complete without your voice. You are special to your father’s eyes. He loves you that much. My favorite preacher put it like this “God really wants those perfectly made sweet lips of yours that perfectly shaped tongue of yours, and that tender and loving heart of yours. He wants them all for himself. Will you give your loving Father what He wants? My friend let us worship God in spirit and in truth! Let us decide today that our worship will take priority over our circumstances. Let us declare today a new beginning in our relationship with God. Let us become true worshipers!
"God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in the Spirit and in truth.” John 4:24
Praise the Lord!
