Do you know how to minister to God?
Do you like it when people pay you a compliment?
Sure you do.
And what if a number of your friends got together, wrote a song about two or three of your good qualities, and rehearsed singing it in four parts just to surprise you?
Now that would be something, wouldn't it?
Are you aware that this is a part of the agreed-upon Sunday agenda in our churches? Of course, the one on whom we focus our attention isn't you--but rather, the Lord.
When we pay God our compliments it's called worship. Worship essentially means to attribute worth to God, or to praise him, or to congratulate Christ for what we like about him.
So this weekend, for it to really be a worship service, you can't just go to church asking, "What's in this for me?" At least you don't go with that mindset if you understand anything of what worship is about. Go, instead, considering the question, "How can I minister to God with my praises?"
