Prodigal:  The Lords works are amazing!

Me:  Yes, I agree and we should Praise Him!

 

This is from the book  The Dynamics of Worship by James P. Gills, M.D.

 

Many Christians have begun to discover the inadequacy of mere knowledge of God through His Word or even of their dedication to Him.  They have practiced both of these concepts from their youth, and yet, much to their dis may, admit that their hearts remain stone cold toward God.  They don’t love Him at all.  Something is missing–the zeal, the passion that marks a true worshiper.

A mature relationship with the Lord embodies three components:  knowledge of Him, covenant with Him, and worship of Him.  These elements represent the complete love of God.  If the relationship is to grow in a healthy manner, they must be present in equal measure.  The three enhance one another in a kind of divine synergy.  From worship comes an expansion of intimate knowledge and covenant, which in turn reinforces worship even further.  Each element complements and completes the other two, but worship kindles the fire of passion for God.

 

Angels worship and so should we.

 

For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth.

Ephesians 5:9
