Worship and prayer
Oh, worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness! Tremble before Him, all the earth. The Lord made the heavens. Honor and majesty are before Him; Strength and beauty are in His sanctuary.
Psalm 96:9,5-6 - KJV
Worship gives you a different perspective on things! As you worship before the Lord you see His majesty, His beauty and His strength. As you worship in the beauty of holiness you come to acknowledge that He is the wonderful creator of heaven and earth. As you worship you realise God has been seeking you to worship Him in spirit and truth. You fulfil your heavenly Father's desire when you worship Him with your whole heart as a new creation in Christ Jesus. Joh.4:23.
In the pressure and busyness of life in society today it's easy to lose sight of God and His love for you. Wholehearted worship restores that vision to you. Those worshipping in spirit and truth - the true worshippers - are rewarded by God with the knowledge of His lovingkindness towards them. In such worship you see God on your side and for you. In such worship you realise you have His ear and His delight is to answer His people's petitions. 1Joh.5:14-15.
Have you been weighed down recently by concern for people and affairs? Worship with your hands raised and your mouth voicing God's praise. Do this in song, in psalms, in your own words or in tongues by the Holy Spirit. Delight that you can enter God's presence. View in the spirit His glory. Now - while still worshipping - present your petitions and receive in grace and faith His reward. Heb.11:6.
Worship in the beauty of holiness!
