“Following Jesus and Loving People”
While reading 1 Timothy this morning something stood out to me. This letter, written by Paul to his son in the faith, Timothy, contains both encouragement and challenges. We find teachings about good doctrine, good behavior, as well as warnings concerning false teachers. In the midst of this important “stuff”, Paul stopped…and poured his heart out in spontaneous praise and worship. He exclaimed, “Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory for ever and ever. Amen” (1:17).
To me, this shows the intensely personal walk Paul had with Jesus. Right doctrine and right practice, important as they are, can never substitute for loving and worshipping Jesus for who He is…the great Savior and Lord! In the midst of your busy day, do you sometimes lift your soul to God and simply worship? Praise and worship was never meant to be a Sunday morning segment on an “order of service”.
Let’s hit the streets with our praise! After all, “the earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it” (Psalm 24:1). Creation belongs to him so we should, “Praise the Lord. Praise God in his sanctuary; praise him in his mighty heavens” (Psalm 150:1). There is no better time to worship than the present. Why not stop reading and lift your heart to Jesus right now, thanking Him and exalting Him? If you’re not sure what to say, try quoting Revelation 5:12 “Worthy is the Lamb, who was slain, to receive power and wealth and wisdom and strength and honor and glory and praise”!
