True Worshipers

Read John 4:21-23

What the Father wants is worshipers who will worship Him in spirit and truth. What a great desire. Is it a desire in our lives? To worship God in spirit and truth?

Listen so often people say they love God, people say He is the most important thing in their lives but at the end of the day it's just what a lot of people say. Maybe it's something they say because it's what they want to be true in their lives but they don't understand what it takes to make it true. Allow me to encourage with a few words of what it takes.

First it takes understanding. Some are unaware what God wants. So it's the responsibility of Christ followers to help younger brothers and sisters to understand what God desires. Talk with your friends, listen to them and ask questions so you know what they understand and what they don't. Then ask permission. Ask if they would be willing to have you help them walk with Christ so that God would see them as worshipers who worship in spirit and truth. Finally, inspire them to learn. Encourage them to know how they best relate to God and help motivate them to connect with God according to their personal learning style. Some of us learn best by connecting with God in thought, others in passion and still others through action. So whether your faith is a faith of the mind, heart or hands press on toward becoming a true worshiper of our amazing God.
