Created To Worship

Why is it important for me to worship God?

God’s Response

I am the LORD your God, who rescued you from the land of Egypt, the place of your slavery. You must not have any other god but me. Exodus 20:2-3

We do not think of ourselves as a worshiping culture, but our behavior often suggests otherwise. Consider our weekly gatherings of up to one hundred thousand frenzied fans observing a ceremony of men dressed in strange garb acting out a violent drama of conquest. Others join in at home by way of a small glowing shrine set up in the family room. Or consider how thousands of young people scream and throw themselves at the stage where their rock-star idols are performing. Human beings are created to worship, to give ultimate value to someone greater than themselves, and then to revere, adore, and obey by ordering the priorities of their lives around the one that they worship. The Bible teaches that only God—the creator of all things and all people—is worthy of our worship. Worship, more than anything, will connect you with God, the source of your hope and your future.

This Is Promising

Great is the LORD! He is most worthy of praise! No one can measure his greatness. Psalm 145:3
