Called to Worship
Have we ever considered why we attend worship services? This powerful message challenges us to rethink our approach to worship, reminding us that we don't merely choose to worship - we are summoned by God Himself. Drawing from Hebrews 12, we're shown how worship is not about our preferences or experiences, but about covenant renewal with our Creator. We're called to approach worship with reverence, understanding that while we no longer face the terrifying aspects of Old Testament worship, our God remains a 'consuming fire.' This perspective shift invites us to see worship as a profound opportunity to be renewed in God's covenant promises, confess our shortcomings, receive His grace, and be consecrated for His service. As we gather, we're participating in a glimpse of heavenly worship, joining with angels in exalting our Holy God. How might this understanding transform our weekly worship from a casual habit, into a life-changing encounter with the Divine?
