Day 19 | Worshipping in Truth

What does it mean to worship God in truth?  To worship God in truth means, “to love and adore God by obeying His commands and doing all that He commanded.”  Thus, when we worship God in truth we do so by believing and following the truth of God’s Word.

Jesus said that if we loved Him, we were to obey all that He commanded, John 14:15.  Some people claim to worship God by singing in the choir or by listening to Christian music, though these things can be good, that was not how God primarily wanted us to worship Him- He commanded us to worship Him by living lives that obey His truths.

Therefore, when you do sing songs about Him at church or when you’re alone, your worship will be effective because you’re not just singing songs without meaning, you are singing songs that represents your beliefs and actions.

Truth comes first from Jesus (John 1:14), then He gave it to His disciples in the form of the Bible (John 14:16), and lastly, the truth of God’s Word is made alive in our spirits by the Holy Spirit (John 16:13).  Thus, God the Father expects us to come to Jesus, read His word, and allow the Holy Spirit to teach us all truth.  As a result, when we truly know Jesus, read His Word, and by faith and the power of the Holy Spirit live it out everyday- we are worshipping Him in truth.

Lastly, when we combine “spiritual worship” (to worship God with everything in our inner most being) with the “truth worship” (to worship in obedience) we can expect to be the kind of true worshippers that the Father seeks!

Therefore, make time everyday to worship God in both spirit and in truth! Obey His commands and adore Him with everything you are on the inside!

1. Ask the Holy Spirit to examine your heart and expose any and all error in your life.
2. Repent of all errors and sin.
3. Worship God today by believing and obeying all His commands.
