We should worship God, get a fresh glimpse of His greatness and glory, and realize that He is still on the throne.
When many people hear the word “worship,” they think of music. Music is one way to worship. But worship is an entire lifestyle. Every aspect of your life can be an act of worship to God.
Worship understands God. His holiness, righteousness, purity, strength, power, authority, and faithfulness. He is everything we need! There is nothing outside the control of God. He can do all things.
Jesus gave us the purest example of worship when he prayed.
Mark 14:35–36 (CEV)
35 Jesus walked on a little way. Then he knelt down on the ground and prayed, “Father, if it is possible, don’t let this happen to me! Father, you can do anything. Don’t make me suffer by having me drink from this cup. But do what you want, and not what I want.”
See what Jesus said? God, You can do anything which recognizes God’s power and authority. But Jesus, in worship, surrendered to the Father by saying do what you want, not what I want. Jesus demonstrated worship in the purest form. It requires faith to surrender and trust God.
Paul reiterates this same point:
Romans 12:1 (CEV)
1 Dear friends, God is good. So I beg you to offer your bodies to him as a living sacrifice, pure and pleasing. That’s the most sensible way to serve God.
We overcome fear by worshiping God. We worship by surrendering to the Lordship of Jesus in our life. We look to Him as the author and finisher of our faith and life.
You won’t die one second before God allows it to happen! He is in control. When we look to Him, we can have faith over fear.
