Worship
“You were created
and redeemed to focus on
Jesus – on Him alone.
Widen your horizons; don’t stay
trapped in your own small
and limited world.
Live instead in the fullness of
His world, and you will see the
wonders and glory of God.”

…draws us close to God,
bringing us the fulfilment of our deepest desires.
As we worship the Lord God Almighty, our problems and worries pale into insignificance. They are short-lived and will pass, but God is eternal! Kneeling in awe before the thrice holy God as pardoned sinners we find life’s deepest meaning.
When we worship God in His magnificence, eternal majesty and power, Satan must flee. Our hearts are filled with peace and confidence.
Drifting away from the fear of God – or even consciously rejecting Him – we may initially feel a sense of relief. But this newfound “freedom” will in fact enslave us, for we are not entering neutral territory. Coming out from under His hand of blessing and protection, we automatically come under an alien influence, leading us daily deeper into captivity.
What can we do to stay in God’s protection zone? Wherever we may live and whoever we may be, the same protective measures apply. Our God is both love and truth. Seeking love and truth we seek Him, whether we realize it or not. Longing for Him and seeking Him we are safe: as we stay close to Him, His protecting hand is over us.
