The Father Is Seeking for True Worshipers


How hungry are you for God? Are you Thirsting? Are you Longing? Are you Seeking? Are you reaching out to God to find the treasures that is in his heart? I challenge you to read and receive what the Spirit is saying to the church.

The Father is looking for true worshipers. Worship is entering into the presence of the Lord with a heart of surrender experiencing the love of the Father, the mercy of the son, and the refreshing life of the Spirit. We were created for such a life in his presence. True worship flows from the heart of one who walks in the fear of the Lord and withholds nothing from God.

Are you a True worshiper? The Father is seeking. He's looking for people who are honest before him, people who fear him, people who deal with sin, and people who surrender to his will. We can't worship any kind of way. We can't come into God's house after being carnal all day and feel we can worship. We can't tell lies all day, Gossip, sleep around and stir up mess and think we can come into God's presence. It doesn't work that way because if we try to come in like that, a religious spirit will come in and take over. Sisters and brothers, God is seeking for true worshipers.

John 4:23-24
(23) But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshipers shall worship the father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.

(24) God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship in spirit and in truth.

When the woman at the well first began to talk with Jesus, she did not know he was the Messiah. When Jesus reveled himself to her, the connection was made in her heart. She turned to him, knowing somehow that he could take care of her sin. She was willing to surrender to him and his salvation. At that point the Woman lined up her life before him as her Messiah and knew he could give her living water. She ran to tell the villagers about this Jesus who "told (her) all the things that (she had) done." She was honest and transparent from the heart. "All of you know what kind of life I have lived. He revealed the sin in my life and he is right. "You must come see this man." " Surely he is the Christ." True worshipers must deal with sin. We must deal with what is "on the inside," for that is where the real person is. God wants "real people" as His worshipers; people who surrender to him from the heart and worship him with all that is within them. The Father still seeks such as these to be his worshipers.

True worship must be in spirit and truth, dealing with sin God's way and yielding to Jesus as Lord and Savior. The Father wants to meet us spirit to Spirit based on truth; the truth about who he is as Holy God and the truth about who each person is as a sinner in need of a Savior. Those who worship in the Spirit also boast or "glory in Christ" and "put no confidence in the flesh." True worship includes not only initial trust in Christ for salvation, but also our trust in the Holy Spirit to empower us and direct us day by day. The Spirit leads us in knowing Christ more fully, in growing in faith, and in telling others of the salvation Christ can give. The Spirit wants us to drink the refreshing water of life, rejoice in our walk with Jesus and allow that "living water" to overflow to others around us.

What does it mean for you and me to walk in true worship today? We know it is still the Father's will that we worship in spirit and truth. He is still looking at the heart of each of us. He still wants truth to reside and reign in the inner man. God is pleased when we obediently walk in the fear of the Lord in surrender, withholding nothing from Him. Psalm 84:10 One day in the presence of God is better than a thousand anywhere else because when we are in God's presence, we can experience walking in the fullness of God.

How can your life be God's dwelling place, a place of true worship? Your life can be God's dwelling place when you walk as His Temple, where sin is dealt with, forgiveness is experienced, and the fullness of His Spirit is real and lasting.

You may be asking, "How can I walk in the fullness of the Holy Spirit and become the temple God wants me to be?"
(1) confess any and all sin to God.
(2) Present yourself to God to be filled and controlled by his Spirit Withholding nothing.
(3) Ask him in faith to fill you with his spirit. Expect him to fill you as you obey bis word.

God's ultimate destiny for his children is unbroken fellowship and pure worship of Him as their heavenly father; and unhindered, undistracted unsoiled walk with him in the light of his presence. God is seeking True worshipers. A life of worshiping him in spirit and truth. A life that will take us into eternity, where our worship will finally be perfected.
