    Why Do We Worship?

    Contributed by Luke Vasicek on Feb 15, 2024
     | 685 views

    We worship God because (1) He Commands it, (2) He is worthy of it, and (3) because it is for our own Good.

    Why do we worship God? (Topical) 1. God wants us to worship him! Ex. 23:25-26 A. God wants us to worship him because He is worthy (Rev. 4:11). It is just, right, and good that God be worshiped. Reality itself dictates, demands, and expects it; creation worships God apart from humankind (Psalm ...read more

    Jesus wanted His disciples to tarry with Him in prayer at a most crucial hour, but they were overcome with sleep. If we can set aside some distractions and discipline ourselves to spend time with God we will experience wonderful transformation in our lives.

    We read in Mark 14:37, He went back and found them asleep. He said to Peter, "Simon, are you sleeping? Couldn't you stay awake for one hour? (GW) As Jesus was praying in the Garden of Gethsemane, he instructed his disciples to tarry in prayer right where they were, when He went on further ...read more
