Worshiping His Holiness

Are you gaining ground in your spiritual walk? If not, you need to worship God’s holiness and let it permeate and reset you.

January’s Awakening, Day 9

Worship is the highest and noblest activity of which man, by the grace of God, is capable.

 —John Stott

We are saved to worship God. All that Christ has done for us in the past and all that He is doing now leads to this one end.

 —A. W. Tozer

To worship is to quicken the conscience by the holiness of God, to feed the mind with the truth, to purge the imagination by the beauty of God, to open the heart to the love of God, to devote the will to the purpose of God.

 —William Temple 

Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe, Hebrews 12:28 NIV

            Since worship connects us with God, it also connects us to all that God is. That is why worship is so critical to our Christian walk. Connecting to Him connects us to His holiness, which serves to purify our hearts and minds and resets them from our sinful self to the holiness we are to strive for and which we will ultimately regain when we are glorified at the Rapture. Scripture continually admonishes us to be holy as the Lord God is holy. The only way we can continually move forward in this holiness direction is to praise and worship Him and connect with the only essence of holiness in existence—Him. Therefore, believer, if you truly want to become spiritual and connect with God and all that He is, you must continually be in a stance of praise and worship directed solely to Him.
