Day 10 - The Heart of Worship
Wednesday, October 06, 2004
The heart of worship is surrender!
“And so, dear brothers and sisters, I plead with you to give your bodies to God. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice – the kind he will accept. When you think of what he has done for you, is this too much to ask?” Romans 12:1 (NLT)
In today’s competitive culture we are taught to never give up and never give in—so we don’t hear much about surrendering. If winning is everything, surrendering is unthinkable. We would rather talk about winning, succeeding, overcoming, and conquering than yielding, submitting, obeying, and surrendering. But surrendering to God is the heart of worship.
As Joshua approached the biggest battle of his life, he encountered God, fell in worship before him, and surrendered his plans. That surrender led to a stunning victory at Jericho. This is the paradox: Victory comes through surrender.
Nothing is more powerful than a surrendered life in the hands of God. “So give yourselves completely to God.”
It is exciting to see our home groups still moving forward with great momentum! We need to continue to keep our focus forward & up. Please remember, you are not doing this for Pastor Rob or Bob, & even as hard as Bev works to keep Pastor Rob & me on the right track, it’s not even for her. As much as Nathan & Tracy love your children, we are not even doing it for them. As much as Abigail holds & loves your little toddlers, it’s not even for her. As sweet as Mrs. Janice is as she keeps your babies clean & loves them in a way that no one else can except you, it's not even for her. As we do what we do for Jesus & Him only, then what we do will be for His Glory & for good. Let’s press in & see what God can do as only He can.
