Worship

3/24/19 {Worship} Then I [John] fell down at his feet to worship him, but he said to me, “You must not do that! I am a fellow servant with you and your brothers who hold to the testimony of Jesus. Worship God.” For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy." - Rev. 19:10 (ESV) When we observe something greater than ourselves, we have a tendency out of fear or respect to offer a special allegiance to them. In the first century many ‘gods’ were recognized and admonished. Any messengers from Jehovah God, would always defer any praise to themselves because they knew only God should receive worship. When we try to worship God, the Holy Spirit is beside us and guiding us to perform this act. When we worship God, it is a testimony to the efforts of Jesus to redeem the world. The Holy Spirit can use our testimony to convict other people of sin and about God’s work of removing it via the actions of Jesus.
