Worship

25. WORSHIP ()

I. LOVE NO OTHER GODS

The real meaning of love is not just words, but actions. Show your love toward God

A. Christ must be first in your life—

(In your plans, life, desires, and love)

B. Christ must be sought—

(For guidance, wisdom, understanding, etc.)

C. Christ must be supreme—

(He must be king, lord, master)

All things are changed when we love Him. Not just lip service, but with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength

II. SERVE NO OTHER GODS

To serve really means to give. Giving your self, your money, your time, your life, etc.

A. Serve Him with your love—

(Daily devotion to Christ, and to Him alone)

B. Serve Him with our lives—

(This means complete dedication unto the Lord)

C. Serve Him with our lips—

(By praise and testimony, both silent and vocal)

Christ is not looking for talent, He is looking for those who will serve Him

III. WORSHIP NO OTHER GODS

Not dead cold ritual worship, but true worship from the heart. Not a habit, or a duty, but with love from the heart

A. Worship with desire—

(A hunger and a desire for more of God)

B. Worship Him with devotion—

(Spirit and truth—This is real devotion)

C. Worship with dedication—

(His will being our will—His way being our way)

Worship Him in the church services. Worship Him in the home. Worship him through reading and studying the Bible
