John 4:23 Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks.
This is one of my favorite verse in the bible. Story ito ng conversation between the Samaritan woman and God.Jesus is explaining the kind of worshiper na hinahanap nya. Jesus is telling the Samaritan to worship Him in spirit because God is spirit. Dalawang word ang makikita natin dito first is the TRADITON Generation and True worshiper Generation.
Sometimes we follow God but we are blinded by the traditions. Sometimes we worship on what we do not know like the Samaritans. Today makikita natin na ang dami na ng style of worship or expressing of seeking God. For example through dance,singing,designs, or playing instruments and this is our Generation at walang masama dun. The problem is in our hearts, we worship Him kapag ang heart natin is singing but when our heart is in trouble we dont love to worship God or continue the ministry to serve others and to serve God.Worshiping God while our heart is broken can lead us in greater faith than when our heart is singing.
In John 4:21 Jesus said to the Samaritan "Believe Me". Ang gandang pakinggan ng word na to galing kay God. He is really stretching out His arm to say this beautiful words. We cannot worship God without believing in Him. Believing is forgetting our old ways. Turning away are eyes from looking at worthless things and turning our passion to worship Him in spirit.
May isang song akong narining and sabi sa lyrics "Cause I dont need to see it to believe it." Worship is more than sight seeing,. More than just watching the style of worship ng other churches. Worship is between you and God. In John 4:19 say's "Sir," the woman said, "I can see that you are a prophet. 20Our fathers worshiped on this mountain, but you Jews claim that the place where we must worship is in Jerusalem." In this verse the Samaritan is living in the kind of tradition of her fathers and the Jews. Ginagagaya nya lang kung anu ang nakikita nya. And that's true at nangyayari din yan hangagang ngayon.
Ultimate Worshiper must deny himself. Cause denying is saying NO. Kailangan marunong tayong mag say no to sin. Sa John 4:13Jesus answered, "Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again, 14but whoever drinks the water I give him will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life.Pinapipili tayo ni Lord kung ano ang dapat nating inumin. God is telling us the complete package of eternal life but we are just laughing to it. We always say to God that im still on the process. Ganu pa katagal? We are hurting God. You can worship God without love but you cannot love God without worshiping Him.
Say this prayer:
Lord I worship you in spirit and in truth. You are the end of my searching. I want ot know You more by means of worship. Speak to me right now. Cleans my heart as I lead this world. Help me to overcome all the circumstances in my life. I surrender to you God Jesus Christ. Amen
