WORSHIP.
Contrary to modern culture, worship does not begin with music, but with
God. In fact, everything begins with Him, the living Logos ( Word ), the
Alpha and the Omega-Beginning and End. So we read in the beginning
of John's gospel, " In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with
God, and the Word was God." ( John 1:1 ) Announcing the arrival of Christ
on earth, John writes, " and the Word became flesh and dwelt among
us. "( v14,NASB )
If we believe Jesus is preeminent, and , therefore, must be the centrepiece
of our living and our worship, a little common logic leads us down this path.
Jesus is the centre of all true worship.
Jesus is the Word of God.
Therefore, the Word of God is the centre of all true worship for all time.

Please pause for a moment after you have read this and think about what
is at the centre of your worship today . Go on, be be honest with yourself.
If you discover that it is not Jesus then I would urge you to ask Him to give
you the desire to place Him , the living , eternal Word of God, at the very
centre of your life and give Him the worship that He alone deserves..

Hey Gail
thanks for this thought provoking post that worship begins with the living Word, Jesus at the center of our worship. Louie also says in his book the Air I Breathe, that every day there is a battle for your worship...
and that what God wants most for you is to have a worthy God you are worshipping.
He also says God is always seeking you. He blankets each new day with the invitation, 'I am here'.
Isn't that a wonderful thought?
blessings Blue~

It's when people have a revelation of this sort that they become true worshippers.
