Scripture

I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. Romans 12:1

Summary

Worship has nothing to do with music. Worship is our whole lives, dedicated to bringing God glory. In view of His mercies (He ransomed us), we offer our whole selves back to Him to be used as obedient vessels to serve and honor Him. That is worship! We worship God when we tell the truth, when we flee from sin, when we serve others, when we give generously, when we care for the needy, when we sacrifice for the good of the church, when we do our job with excellence, when we submit our sexuality to God's design, and when we trust God when things don't make sense. Worship is a whole-life endeavor.

Closing Prayer

Lord God, you ransomed us from our way of death. You pulled us out of the miry pit and set our feet upon the Rock. You saved us from an eternity separated from you. You did all the work. We belong to you now. Use our entire lives for your glory and for your purposes in the world. Fulfill your purposes and plans for each one of us. Help us to honor you in every aspect of our lives. We want to live to bring you glory. Help us by your Holy Spirit's power. In Jesus' name. Amen.
