” THESE PEOPLE HONOR ME WITH THEIR LIPS BUT THEIR HEARTS ARE FAR FROM ME.” MATTHEW 15:8
Respecting, loving and honoring our God in heaven is much more than just going to church on Sunday morning. The messages from God and the fellowship we receive with other Christians during our Sunday church services are a vital part of our relationship with God. However, going to church on Sunday morning and Sunday night does not give us a license to go out during the week and live a life that represents this world. We are to take our messages and the fellowship we receive on Sundays and make them a part of our daily lives. Some treat our Sunday services as they do a gas station for their car. They go there and fill up for the week, thinking that they are good until next Sunday. Truly honoring our God in heaven is not only going to church but it is living the life. His word and his promises are to penetrate our very souls and become a part of who we are. We are to love others, be joyful, be giving, and act upon his promises and live lives of strength and not weakness. If we are to fulfill the plan that God has for us, we must be willing to involve him in every decision and every problem we run up against. We need to pray and talk with him everyday. We must listen to him and do as he instructs us to do. He should be our focus during the week, not the world. After all, he created this world, and he knows of every problem and every solution to every problem, before we even confront them. We must trust him and honor him in everything we do. PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL SITUATIONS!
