Jesus told him. “For the Scriptures say,‘You must worship the LORD your God and serve only him.’” (Matthew 4:10 NLT)
- What do you worship?
- Worship is simply the thing that you value the most.
- Worship is the thing that "drives you".
- it's the thing that you dwell on and think about the most.
- We all worship something, it's just a matter of what you choose to worship.
- It may be money, a job, a relationship, money, a car, sports, fitness, you name it.
- It's important to know what has your heart... To know what you worship.
- Satan said to Jesus in Matt. 4:9 “I will give it all to you,” (all the kingdoms of the world) he said, “if you will kneel down and worship me.”
- "if" ... That's a big "if"
- Satan knows that if He can steal your worship from Jesus, He has your heart.
- Examine yourself today...
- Can you honestly say that you worship God ALONE?
- Look at:
- what you spend your time on.
- what you think about the most
- what you spend your money on
- how you spend your free time.
- Whatever you value the most is what you worship.
- 1 Cor. 8:6 says," But we know that there is only one God, the Father, who created everything, and we live for him. And there is only one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom God made everything and through whom we have been given life.
- After you examine what you spend your time, thoughts, money and energy on - ask yourself this question...
- Can I really say, "I live for Him"?
- If not, take some time this morning to re-evaluate some things.
- What holds the highest value in your life?
- what has your heart?
- Choose to put your relationship with Jesus at the top of your list.
- He created you!
- He made you!
- He gave you life and He loves you.
- Make the intentional decision to worship Him...
- Choose today to live for Him!
- Have a great Weekend!
