“God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in the Spirit and in truth.” John 4:24 NIV
Worship is an essential necessity that has to be practiced every day. According to our opening scripture God is a Spirit and worshiping Him must be from the spirit. We must understand that worship is our moment of adoration to God and It excites Him when we do. Don’t look at worship as something that is done only in the presence of people, it’s an everyday experience, you must give adequate time to worshiping God. The fact that He is a Spirit means that He is not confined to one location at a time. He is omnipresent. He has existed as spirit for all eternity, before He created the material universe.
It’s important to worship in spirit and in truth because to worship in spirit without truth is to worship false gods and to worship in truth without spirit is religion. How can one worship in spirit and in truth you may ask; Worshiping the Father in Spirit is to worship from the heart or from within while Worshiping God in Truth as revealed to us in His Word means to worship Him for all that He is in the majesty of His attributes.
Worshiping God in the spirit puts you in the right will of God for your life. There are some Christians who are not in the will of God for their lives. They are either in the wrong job, business, place, relationship (wrong marriage) etc. True worship is an Offering to God.
Further Scripture Study: Hebrews 12:28-29; Psalms 100:4-5
Declare This: Thank You Father for I make You my focal point of worship. I pour out my heart in true worship of Your name in Jesus name Amen.
