Through him then let us continually offer up a sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of lips that acknowledge his name. Hebrews 13:15
Worship Him – Hebrews 13:15 (December 22)
During the Christmas story, we see the shepherds hearing the news of Jesus’ birth and coming to worship Him. They kneel before the Baby Messiah and acknowledge His Name above all names. We read of the wisemen traveling from far away on the strength of ancient prophecies to worship the Newborn King.
Eternal worship
In Heaven, there is a constant song of worship continuing eternally.
And I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and in the sea, and all that is in them, saying,
“To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb
be blessing and honor and glory and might forever and ever!” Revelation 5:13
In the beginning
From the beginning of everything, Jesus, the Word of God, was there. He came to earth to dwell with us and save us.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. John 1:1
Like the Shepherds and Wisemen
Like the shepherds and wisemen, we need to bow our hearts in worship before Jesus. We delight in the goodness of God’s presence. We are brought near to God to worship Him alone.
When iniquities prevail against me,
you atone for our transgressions.
Blessed is the one you choose and bring near,
to dwell in your courts!
We shall be satisfied with the goodness of your house,
the holiness of your temple! Psalm 63:3-4
Action Step:
Take a few moments for worship today. Turn on some worship music and bow your heart in worship of the Lord.
Prayer:
Dear God, We worship You today and always. We bow before Jesus the King and exalt His Name above all others. Draw our hearts close to You this Christmas. In Jesus’ name, amen.
