THE TRUE LIFESTYLE OF WORSHIP

Key Verses for Why God Deserves Our All:

"Who has ever given to God that God should repay him? For from him and through him and to him are all things. To him be the glory forever. Amen. Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God -- this is your spiritual act of worship." (Rom. 11:35-12:1)
 

Key Attributes of God Leading to the Presentation of Ourselves to Him:

God is our life. If it wasn't for His mercy we would have nothing, including life itself.
 

Key Issues for Worship:

• It's about giving Him our all, not simply the parts we are okay with giving.

  The greatest commandment is that you "love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind" (Matt. 22:37).
   

• It's about giving Him our best, the first fruits of our lives, not simply the leftovers of our time, money and resources.

  We are to present ourselves to Him "as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God" (Rom. 12:1).
   

• It's about giving Him our hearts, not simply our words or deeds.

  Let's not be like those of whom God said, "These people come near to me with their mouth and honor me with their lips but their hearts are far from me. Their worship of me is made up only of rules taught by men" (Isa. 29:13).
   

Key Focus in a Lifestyle of Worship:

What can we sacrifice to Him?

Remember that He did not hold back on our behalf. Jesus gave His very life for us. "In view of God's mercy" how can we not be that "living sacrifice?"
 
As a "living sacrifice" we will continually offer to Him ourselves and all that we have and do. As such, because of His mercy, we enter into a lifestyle of worship.
 

Implications for the Worship Leader:

• Be careful not to give the impression that people can come and sing a few songs, say amen, put an offering in the plate, and have done their "spiritual act of worship." Emphasize that worship encompasses the totality of their lives.
   
• Encourage people to lay their all on the altar, to be "living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God."
   
• Focus on the heart, not form or methodology, for it must be from the heart that people present themselves to God. (See Matt. 12:33-37.)
   

Implications for the Individual Worshiper:

• Guard your heart so that it doesn't become stubborn (Jer. 13:10) or turn away, get distracted, or become lukewarm. Keep that first love (Rev. 2:1-7) so you are not drawn elsewhere or tempted to give less than all to Him (Deut. 30:15-20).
   
• In corporate worship, be willing to lay down your preferences and comfort zone. Be willing to give to God as He has prospered you when the offering plate passes by (1 Cor. 16:2; 2 Cor. 9:6-8). Remember, sacrifice is a part of worship.
   
• Come before the Lord with joy and gladness as you present yourself wholly to Him, not begrudgingly (Ps. 100:2; 2 Cor. 9:7).

EXALTING GOD...

I will extol the Lord at all times; his praise will always be on my lips.  My soul will boast in the Lord; let the afflicted hear and rejoice.  Glorify the Lord with me; let us exalt his name together.  (Ps. 34:1-3)

Suppose you are in a classroom sitting in a circle.  The teacher informs you that each person, in turn, is to share one way we can exalt God as the Only True God.  How would you respond when it becomes your turn?

Even if you are the last person in the circle, there should be something you can answer.  You see, we exalt God with more than our words of praise and music.  After those responses are given, you might have to think about it a bit.

Other ways to exalt God include the following:

• We exalt God when we value what He views as important.  We are saying that His opinions and heart are supreme, hence, exalting Him.
• We exalt God when we obey His commands.  We are saying that His ways are best, hence, exalting Him.
• We exalt God when we line up what we do with His Word, following His ways.  We are saying that He is the final standard, hence, exalting Him.
• We exalt God when we help other people in their struggles by pointing them to God.  We are saying that He is the ultimate source of strength, comfort, peace, and hope, hence, exalting Him.

Worship is about exalting God above all else, singling Him out as the Only True God of whom there is no greater.

WHAT CAN YOU RENDER UNTO GOD WHO IS ALL IN ALL

Ascribe to the Lord the glory due His name. Bring an offering and come before Him.  (1 Cor. 16:29)

Through Jesus, therefore, let us continually offer to God a sacrifice of praise. (Heb. 13:15)

Notice two important points in the opening words of Hebrews 13:15.

1. We come on the merits of Jesus.  We only have something to give because He was sacrificed on our behalf.  — “Through Jesus, therefore, …”

2. Based on all Jesus has done for us, it only makes sense that our worship is constant.  — “continually offer”

In light of these truths, think through the implications about what we can we offer Him.

• We can offer our money and material goods to Him.  . . . Yet, He owns it anyway.  (Col. 1:16)
• We can offer our service.  . . . Yet, apart from Christ we can do nothing.  (Jn. 15:5)
• We can offer our mouths to be His witnesses.  . . . Yet, it is the power of God that saves.  (Rom. 1:16)
• We can offer our compliance to do things His way.  . . . Yet, it is only in our best interest to do so as His ways are better than our ways.  (Isa. 55:9)
• We can offer our very lives to the Lord.  . . . Yet, it is only our “reasonable service” (Rom. 12:1, KJV).

Let’s not pat ourselves on the back because we serve, witness, obey, and commit our lives to Him … even if we do so more than the next person.  We can only offer any of the above to Him because of what He has already given us or done for us.

Let’s heed the words written to the Corinthian church:

What do you have that you did not receive? And if you did receive it, why do you boast as though you did not? (1 Cor. 4:7)

HINDRANCES TO WORSHIP

We acknowledge that God certainly is deserving of praise but sometimes we struggle to make worship a priority or reality in our lives.  We have access to much teaching and writing on worship, plenty of worship resources, to help us.  Yet, we still at times fail to worship “in spirit and in truth” as Jesus said of true worshipers in John 4:24.

Why don’t we always worship as we should? Here are some possible hindrances which I will list here:

1. Self – my own needs, conveniences, time, advantage, blessing, etc. come above God
2. Concept of God – either physical or mental misrepresentation of God
3. False Gods – anything that would pull you away from worshiping the one true God
4. Our Culture – the influence of the world around us
5. Service – being so busy ministering that we neglect God
6. Irreconciled Relationships – relationships where there is mistreatment or lack of forgiveness
7. Traditions – self-styled worship rather than God’s method
8. Worship “Props” – those forms, styles, facilities, or people which aid us in worship

I don’t know about you, but I don’t want these hindrances to block me from truly worshiping.  God is so worthy of my complete and undistracted devotion and love expressed through worship!

SOME WORSHIP QUOTES

"The whole person, with all his senses, with both mind and body, needs to be
involved in genuine worship."
Jerry Kerns



"The most valuable thing the Psalms do for me is to express the same delight in
God which made David dance."
C.S. Lewis




"When God's people begin to praise and worship Him using the Biblical methods
He gives, the Power of His presence comes among His people in an even greater
measure."
Graham Truscott




"God is to be praised with the voice, and the heart should go therewith in holy
exultation."
Charles H. Spurgeon




"Worship is an it-is-well-with-my-soul experience." -
Robert Webber




"Without worship, we go about miserable."
A. W. Tozer




"'A glimpse of God will save you. To gaze at Him will sanctify you."
Manley Beasley




"We only learn to behave ourselves in the presence of God."

C. S. Lewis




"If we are going to worship in Spirit, we must develop a spirit of worship."
Michael Catt




"As worship begins in holy expectancy, it ends in holy obedience. Holy obedience
saves worship from becoming an opiate, an escape from the pressing needs of modern
life."
Richard Foster




"Worship has been misunderstood as something that arises from a feeling which "comes upon you," but it is vital that we understand that it is rooted in a conscious act of the will, to serve and obey the Lord Jesus Christ."
Graham Kendrick




"Worship changes the worshiper into the image of the One worshiped"
Jack Hayford




"Worship must be - Christ centered, Holy Spirit led, a Response to the Father, about Intimacy and Service and always lead to Transformation!"
Tim Hughes




"As John 4:23 says, Its time, as worshipers of God, to give him all we have. For
when he is exalted, everything about me is decreased. So many times we stand in the
way of really stepping into the secret place of worship with God. Just abandon tradition
and the "expected" ways of Praise & Worship and get lost in the holy of holies with the
sole intention of blessing the Fathers heart."
Jessica Leah Springer




"When I worship, I would rather my heart be without words than my words be without
heart."
Lamar Boschman




"Worship is first and foremost for His benefit, not ours, though it is marvelous to
discover that in giving Him pleasure, we ourselves enter into what can become our
richest and most wholesome experience in life." p.58 "A Heart For Worship" by Lamar
Boschman
Graham Kendrick
