"A Song of degrees of David. I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the LORD." (Psalms 122:1)
Our attitude about worship is so important. Jesus said, "God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth." (John 4:24) I'm not entirely sure what that means, but most of the time this is used to say we should have the right spirit or 'attitude' in worship. When I think of attitude, I can't help but think of King Saul and King David. King Saul had the attitude of, "I'm the king, I can do what I want and I don't care." Now, King David did occasionally get it in his head that he could do what he wanted because he was the king, but when his sin was pointed out to him, he was grievous because he knew that he had sinned against God. This is the attitude we should have when we worship. It was King David who said he was glad to come to worship God.
Our attitude is so important when we come to worship. There are many scriptures that show that Jesus was talking about our heart when we come to worship. Let us be thankful that we can come and worship and have a few minutes of fellowship with others that are striving to heaven as we are.
Where will you be this Sunday morning and evening? I hope you will come worship God and be glad for it.
Simply a Christian. "Be imitators of me, as I am of Christ." (1 Corinthians 11:1) "Therefore encourage one another and build one another up, just as you are doing." (1 Thessalonians 5:11)
